Page 2 EASTERN' CLACKAMAS NEWS. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2!). 1927 MEAT LOAF MOST CARE FOR FLOORS IMPORTANT TASK ECONOMICAL DISH Some of the Cheaper Cuts Can Be Utilized. by th of e A United S tate, D epartm ent ttrlculture.) If every dinuer eoultl be equally easy to prepare, tasty, different from the last one, inexpensive and popular With the family, we housekeepers would cease asking ourselves this eternal question. Meat loaf or roll U one of the most economical meat dishes you can serve. Borne of the cheaper cuts can be used In making It and every bit that Is not eaten hot Is useful for serving cold In slices or for sandwich tilling. Any lean meat may be used If gristle and skin are trimmed off. From one-fourth and one-fifth as much pork as beef Is a good proportion. Too much pork makes an overrich, greasy loaf. Many homemakers prefer to have a fresh piece of meat cut oft and put through the grinder under their direction, or some like to take It home and grind It themselves. A very good loaf may often be made at considerable saving per pound from the trimmings the butcher accumulates from the more expensive cuts. If the pork Is not added to the beef a small amount of fresh suet should be put through the chopper with the meat. So many different seasonings may be used In a meat loaf that It Is dif ficult to give an exact recipe. Unless the family objects to the flavor, chopped or grated onion should be added to the meat Thick cream sauce or brown gravy or eggs will be needed ns a binder. Fine dry bread crumbs, or cracker meal also will help to hold It together. The flavor Is greatly Im proved by combining canned tomatoes with the meat mixture or serving In a sauce over the loaf. For your loaf you will need 2 pounds of ground beef; % pound of ground pork; 1 onion, grated; 1 cup ful of thick cream sauce or gravy, or 2 eggs; 1 cupful dry bread crumbs, or cracker meal; I to 2 cupfuls canned tomato; salt and pepper to taste; dried celery tops, or other sea sonings If desired. Mix all these in gredients together thoroughly. Shape the mixture Into a loaf, laying a strip or two of salt pork or small pieces of suet on the top, and place It in a heavy baking pan. Cook In the oven for % to % of nn hour. Have the oven hot at first but reduce the tem perature toward ttie end. If the sauce or gravy Is used as the binder for the loaf make It with 3 tablespoonfuls of flour and 2 tahlespoonfuls of butter or other fat to one cupful of liquid.

They came upon prehistoric ruins and In their thirst for treasure cleared away a large amount of earth In two weeks.

New York.—How ultraviolet radi ation, used on sick humans, saved the lives of five valuable and desper- ately III animals In the New York zoological park U told by Dr. Charles V. Noback of the department of com parative medicine. Ills furry patients consisted of a red howling monkey, a grlvet mon key and three lemurs, which are Small animals belonging to the same order as monkeys but lower In the evolutionary scale. They are all expensive animals and their threatened death from “cage paralysis," which Is a disease very similar to rickets In human beings, was regarded by the zoo authorities as a genuine calamity. When they had reached a state In which they re fused all food and could hardly move, Doctor Noback was culled In. The helplessness of the animals at the outset simplified the treatment. Doctor Nobuck simply placed Ills quartz-tube mercury vapor lump be hind their bowed and Immobile backs and turned on the current, without needing to tie or constrain them In any way. The treatment was kept up for a month in the case of the red howling monkey, and from three to four weeks with the others. In all cases the stiffness and decrepitude that mark the disease in its extreme stages soon disappeared, the eyes became bright again, the hair glossy and the pa tients displayed u manifest renewal of their interest in food. Doctor Noback notes that the doses of the rays to which he subjected the hair-covered skins of his animals were much more intense than those intend ed for the bare skin of a human being. For this reason he had to be care ful about hairless and nonpigmented areas, such as the region around the eyes, to avoid producing severe sun burn. Sweets Growing More Popular in America Washington.—Fathers and mothers seem to be getting more Indulgent In the United States, or else the fathers and mothers themselves are consum ing more candy, chewing gum and ice cream, because the production of these three children’s favorites is set ting new altitude records nearly ev ery year. The Commerce depart ment's census of manufactures dis closes tremendous increases which small boys will find hard to believe. Comparing 1914 figures with those for 1925, the following was set forth: Tlie nation now produces $47,838,- 000 worth of chewing gum, compared with the pre-war figure of $17,000,000, and the product still sells for a nickel a package. The ice cream bill Is $280,175,086 a year, compared with $55,983,133 In 1914. Candy costs $379,081.411, compared with $153,085,523 in 1914. This present bill of $700,000,000 or more—about $35 annually per small boy—if small boys got all of it— doesn’t represent nil the money spent by dad and sister's sheik, either, for these figures are wholesale prices. Betnil prices will boost these three Industries into the $1,000,000,000-a- year figure, experts believe. The increases are variously attrib uted to prohibition, advertising, in creasing export trade, and the at tempt of tlie factories to catch up with the appetites of small boys and high school girls. B etter T han Chimes Seattle, Wash.—An offer to buy chimes for a large church being fin ished here was turned down by its pastor, who replied that bells are out of date. A well-planned newspaper ad vertisement announcing the Sunday features, he contends, will draw more folks to church Ilian noisy chimes and at the same time not disturb those who hubituuly sleep late on the Sab bath. «HJiKHKKHKHKKVlKKHKHKHW Petting Place Was the Big Stamps Poison Ivy Garden | Why Are Not Very Popular St. Faul, Minn.—This is the sorrow Eggs by Dozen or Weight. tPrepmr»*<l bjr th* U nited State* D epartm ent If women would generally welg! of A griculture, t eggs and persuade dealers tluu Apples, potatoes, string beans nnd a their very small eggs are not wortl other products bandied by the green ns dozen much dozen fine big ones, th< grocer or fruit stand are now usually custom of ns a selling eggs by weigh' sold by weight Instead of by count would goon become established.

Two romantic young tilings, the boy about twenty and the girl not more than eighteen, came down from the northern pnrt of Minnesota' where Tines are vines nnd not poison Ivy. Before the advent of the decorative spotlights there had been plenty of places for n little quiet necking. But all that was changed. Then one morning he got n bright Idea. Every day going to his classes he passed a perfectly luscious looking gwden. Pool and green, all vines and ferns, It was Inclosed hy a high picket fence. Of course. It had a warning sign on the gate, hut then he neither read nor believed la signs. That very night he mysteriously conducted the girl to the garden. She was charmed with the spot. She fo!,l him that she would never forget the night nnd the garden and. of course, bltn. And she never will. The following morning both their faces were broken out with a rash that closely resembled that produced by poison Ivy. The gar den was filled with poisonous plants for the use ef the medical students In their research work. New York.—Refusal of the public to expend the energy and time needed to moisten and affix a large stntnp Is given by post- office officials as one reason for the fnlllng off In the demand for the new 2-eent stamps celebrat ing the surrender of General Rurgoyne. Sales of the Burgoyne stamp together with a stamp comment orating the battle of Benning ton, have fallen off since they first went before the public on August 5. The Bennington stamp Is of ordinary size, while the Burgoyne stamp Is oblong the shape of the special delivery stamp. The drop In demand for the Burgoyne Issue has been more marked than that for the ' Bennington. “Professional nnd amateur and dealers bought ; collectors both In large quantities In the first week." said Edward F.
