o MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MTCDFO'il), OREGON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1933. PAGE FIVE Cheaper Cuts of Meat Give Satisfaction When Used by Skillful Cook By Bureau of Home Economics, U. 8. Department of Agriculture. It la comforting to know, especially nowadays, that the cheaper cuts of meat are Just as nutritious as the more expensive ones. The trick Is to make them taste as good, but that need not stump the skillful cook, says the bureau of home economics of the U. fl. department of agricul ture. To succeed the cook must know the cuts, and how to cook them. Beef and pork are probably the best meat bargains Just at present. Prices run as low as 7 and 8 cents a pound in some localities, for very good meat Indeed. Even sirloin and porter house steaks, and prime ribs of beef, the most expensive cuts, are down to figures unheard of In normal times. The leas tender and cheaper beet steaks are chuck, shoulder, flank, round, and rump. Chuck ribs, cross arm, clod, round and rump are the less tender and cheaper roasts.. The cheapest beef stew meat Is neck, plate and brisket, flank, shank and heel of round. And then there is soup bone very little meat, but plenty of flavor. To cook these cute to the best ad vantage, says the bureau of home economics, remember that heat, mois ture, and long slow cooking are need ed to make tough meat tender. The cheaper cuts make good pot roasts, Swiss steak, or stew, to mention top-of-the-stove methods, which require leas fuel than oven-cooking. For oven dinners, stuffed flank steak, baked In the oven, or any of the cheaper cuts In a casserole with vegetables, are other good ways to use these low-priced meats. And left-over pot roast makes good hot roast beef sand wiches, or brown hash. In other words, for the less tender cua of beef, follow these cooking principles: Sear the meat In a small quantity of fat until It la browned this Is to develop flavor; after brown ing reduce the heat, add a Judicious amount of water, cover tightly, and cook slowly until the meat la tender enough to be cut with a fork. It will give up a good deal of Juice during the cooking, but that makes good gravy, to be served as a part of the dish. Or cook the meat with toma toes Instead of water, and give It a different flavor. With tomatoes, on ion, and green pepper. It la called Spanish steak. Another good way with less tender meat Is to grind It. Then It can be cooked In the same way as a tender steak or roast that Is broiled or pan brolled, or baked. Ground beef broil ed on toast, hamburg steak, and beef loaf are some of the best ways of using ground beef. Among the good pork bargains la sausage. It can be bought In Just the quantity to serve any sized fam ily. It has no waste, since any fat that cooks out can be used In gravy. It Is easy to cook, and delicious with fried apples, or with griddle cakes. A fresh picnic shoulder, boned, and stuffed, or a platter of stuffed spare ribs Is also cheap and very satisfying. Stuffed shoulder, which, on the sec ond day can be served cold and sliced, Is one of the best of pork roasts. The cooking of pork Is simple, says the bureau. All the cuts are tender. They must, however, be cooked thor oughly to the cen-or of the piece and some precaution Is necessary to keep the outside from becoming hard and dry. Sear the surface, and then cook with moderate heat, but do not add water. Ham. shoulder, and loin have enough fat on the outside to baste the lean meat If roasted fat Bide -up In an open pan. To prevent pork chops from becoming hard and dry, cover them closely after brown ing, and finish the cooking with very moderate heat. LOW COST MENU FOR ONE DAY Breakfast.

There should be about 2 quarts of broth, and If necessary add water to make this quantity. Bring the broth to the boiling point, slowly stir in 3 cups of corn meal or 3 cups of cracked wheat, cook for about 30 min utes and stir frequently.

Serve the fried apples on a hot platter with the sausage.

I E OF RECALL ABUSE (Continued irom Page One) out to get some of nas. They pur sue him even onto the fire escape, where many a good lobbyist has taken a bad case of flu rather than sur render a good talking point. No wonder, then, that some other wise well-meaning lobbyists have fallen Into the degrading practice of directing the attention of the gold digger to the evasive legislator, there by killing two birds with one stone. A resolution was introduced today, relative to the seating arrangements of delegations for the next session of the legislature two years hence. One legislative wag said the only sugges tion he had to make was that the stenographers' chairs be removed, leaving them no other alternative than to sit on the floor or their bosses' knees.- "This would be an In centive' aald he, "for legislators to choose better-looking stenographers." The Senator Goss Washington's birthday speech before the house this afternoon was a good talking point for the Beck man beer bill and the parl-mutual measure now before the legislature. He said Washington, If he lived today, would not drink wet and vote dry. Washington, he said, always had a cellar full of good liquor, and that It was a matter of historic rec ord that he Indulged In frequent gambling games and bet on horse races. ' "This did not deter him from be ing the country's most loved presi dent and best citizen." Senator Goss said he merely cited these facts from the first President's life to emphasize the changing view If griddle cakes don't get an even heat, they'll be leathery and pale In placetburned almost black In other places soggy in other places.

As the blend flows evenly, continuously through the roasters a little at a time a constant degree of heat roasts every berry alike. There is no variation. Each pound has the same matchless, uniform flavor. Such uniformity in flavor cannot be achieved in coffee roasted in bulk the ordinary way. It is impossi ble to roast each batch alike, and as a result there is variation in flavor. If you would like proof of the popularity of Hills Brds.

' "The greatest need of the present day, both in our economic and polit ical life Is tolerance of others' view points," he said. Although Washington's birthdav wasn't a legislative holiday, 14 out of 60 members of the house were absent this afternoon. Sweetly -scented ladles, with per fect permanents and well-blended complexions, wander through , the hells these days. They are lobbyists on both sides of the oosmetlclans bill recently Introduced by Repre sentatives Frank Lonergan and Har vey Wells. Representing the oper ators and the beauty college head-, there is need for competition in the make-up of these feminine persuad ers. . There Is now complaint among the more sensitive solons In both houses and senate that the noise down in Jackson county Is too loud to allow them to think. They have requested members of the press to "shush" the racket, at least until the present ses sion is over. Prink Callison, former Medford high school coach, was the hero of the hour out In the lobby at noon today, as he was discovered and sur rounded by a large crowd of Uni versity of Oregon football fans. While here he shook hands with one of his predecessors on the Oregon gridiron. "Shy" Huntington, now a member of the house of representatives. Members of the house usually smoke cigarettes, when they can "bum" them off the newspapermen In the lobby. (Even the governor does this, occasionally.) But sena tors are different. To a man, the upper house men puff big, black, long cigars. As to the brand, or whether they pay for them them selves, that's another question. But cigars have a senatorial dignity that cigarettes somehow lack. Some of the lobbyists, it Is said, are so Inexperienced that they have their brief cases filled with papers. 'yif . Delightful Trips Await Popularity Prize Winners Free From AH Expense Here are the brief highlights of the two delightful vacation trips which will be the goal of Medford misses who are entered In the Merchants- Tribune popularity contest. Although words will not describe these wo mar velous trips, here Is a description that will give a modest Idea of the two cruises. The winner of first prize and the coveted title of "Miss Medford" will go from Medford to Seattle, where she will stop at the Olympic hotel. From that northwest metropolis she will board a fine ocean liner for a splendid six-day voyage to Uncle Sam's lovely Island territory, Hawaii. Long years ago, on the spot where once Hawaiian kings held court in a grove of cocoa palms, bordering Wal- klkl beach, stands the Royal Hawai ian hotel, and farther along the beach Is the Moana hotel, with its famous banyan courtyard. Here Miss Medford will make her home for nine luxurious days In the entrancing Hawaiian Islands. The service to be given her could not be tendered this same ancient royalty In a more attentive manner. Silent footed retainers anticipate her every wish. Her room Is luxuriously ap pointed, and the quiet calm of this fair haven will be delightfully restful. In this strange, different city, from sunrise to sunset, skies change with the minutes; rainbows float above the valleys; the sea sends forth opales cent hues; every bit of nature vies to lend color to the atmosphere. Ro mance, calm and peace are In the air. A trip to the city, with Its placid composure, Its simplicity and genu lneneas, Intrigues and excites. Here you find a bit of San Francisco or New York, and generous touches of the South Seas an occidental atmos phere t under western Influence. Everywhere you go you hear the soft speech of the kindly, lovable In habitants of native Hawaii.
