MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, 1IEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1933. PAGE SEVEN RETAIL SALES OF NEW YORK, Deo. 29. Tj Follow ing tha best volume of Christmas buying Alnce 1W8 In many districts, business was further stimulated In the past week by fresh merchandise demands Incident to the widespread wintry weather. Dun & Bradstreet uld In their weekly trade review to day. Most of the reports received during the week, asserted the review, stressed the substantial gains of most trade branches over their comparative fig ures of 1933. "Cheerfulness over the outlook," said the report, "is especially marked in country districts where the steady flow of checks to farmers cooperating with the AAA In the crop adjustment program has pushed buying power ahead. "Largely disregarding seasonal in fluences, the leading industrial in dices display a heartening stability for the close of the year. The lull in retail buying which usually sets in immediately following Christmas waa not marked this year. Sales of textiles were stimulated by the spec ial offerings of sheets, pillow-cases, table linens and towels, but the greater volume centered on the regu lar lines of women's coats and dresses. "With retailers' sales larger than expected during the post-Christmas week, the substantial reduction of stocks increased orders received by wholesalers for immediate, shipment of ready-to-wear clothing, winter sports goods, automobile accessories, foodstuffs and many items in the staple dry goods line."

Department of Agriculture This Is not the season when eggs are cheapest, but there is no season when eggs are not Important, espe cially If the family supplies are low in other foods. It Is most fortu nate, then, that the government Is about to provide, at this very time of year, a vast amount of eggs for the people who .have not the means for getting food for themeselves. Can you imagine what 15,000,000 dozen eggs would look like? By the end of January that many will have been distributed free to the needy people of this broad land 600,000 cases, 30 dozen to the case pur chased by the government in the egg centers of the different states and distributed to families on the relief rolls everywhere in the coun try. The general public, of course, will not receive any of the relief supply of eggs. But the government's pur chase serves to emphasize the im portance of this particular food in any low-cost diet. It is good news, especially for the children In the families to whom the eggs will be distributed, for, next to milk, eggs are the best all-around food for chil dren. Even the family with the smallest food budget should try to get ft few eggs every week for the children, says the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. S. Deartment of Agricul ture. The bureau suggesting a low cost weekly market list for a family of five, slips In two eggs apiece for three children and two more for father and mother, as a minimum. A very limited supply, this J so lim ited that it may be well to see how much can be done with the fewest number of eggs In s. week. The point Is, of course, to make the most of the food value of the eggs, and at the same time get the full benefit of their fine cooking qualities. Probably they are storage eggs, because new-laid eggs cost more. But storage doesn't affect the food value, so our problem Is to make the most attractive dishes with our Uni ted egg supply which comes down to five eggs after we .have taken out the baby's share. He gets three, one for every other day or so. Five eggs, then, for two adults and two children. One egg may very well go into spoon corn bread for one day in the week. Or into oat meal muffins, or grahams, or plain wheat muffins. With another we can make French toast for breakfast one day, or corn fritters or French toasted sandwiches or rice croquettes for supper. One egg is enough to make cottage pudding, or a pumpkin or squash pie, or gingerbread, or chocolate drop cookies, or peanut butter cup cakes, or, Instead of cot tage pudding, a plain one-egg cake to be served hot. With three eggs left we can make an omelet with a little chipped beef, or crisped salt pork, or bacon, or ham. Or we can make a spinach souffle or a rice omelet. That will use all three eggs at once. Or three eggs, hard cooked, sliced and cream ed with plenty of cream sauce, could be made enough for a meal for four. Spacing out the three eggs, we might make an Inexpensive cooked salad dressing with one egg, or may onnaise dressing with one of the yolks. That leaves the white for icing some cup cakes. With the oth er two eggs we could make a bread pudding, or a cream pie. Nutritionists recommend eggs for children as a supplement to milk but not as a substitute, because nei ther the white nor the yolk of the egg contains much calcium. For that, miuk is the richest source. The calcium of the egg Is nearly all in the arell. But eggs are valuable for the same food substances that we find in lean meat namely proteins, minerals and vitamin O. They are valuable also for vitamins A and D, which are not abundant In meat, though they are abundant In oily fis.h. Eggs are. In fact, one of the few good food sources of vitamin D. which must be present, with cal cium, and phosphorus, in order to keep the children's bones in healthy growing condition and to prevent rickets.
