Dickerson, Washington State College Extension home manage ment specialist, says this is a question that mothers and work ing wives frequently ask them selves. Most, often, she adds, it's in connection with foods. The problem is whether to buy more expensive ready processed foods and save time, or buy raw or partially processed "makings" for meals and save money. A recent study of this prob lem, she says, has just been made by researchers, in the Bu reau of Human Nutrition and Home Nutrition and Home Eco nomics of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. She offers this in terpretation of the results. With ready-to-serve foods, all meals for a day take about an hour and a half to prepare. A day's meals from partially-prepared foods take about 3 hours. It takes about 5 hours a day to prepare meals using food bought raw, separate ingredients for baking, and other items given a minimum of commercial proc essing. That's the situation as to time saved. Menus were the same for all three approaches. Here's the cost picture: A day's food for four persons cost S6.70 at chain store prices in Wash ington, D. C, for menus using ready-to-serve items. The same menus using partially-prepared foods cost $5.80 for four persons for a day's food. The same menus cost $4.90 to prepare when the cook did all possible work for herself. That means a saving of 90 cents for meals . using par tially-prepared foods, and $1.80 saving for the meals made prac tically from "scratch" by the cook.

Dickerson says, is whether a money saving of $1.80 is more important than a time saving of 3Vi hours. - There is a considerable differ ence among families, of course, as to relative emphasis put on saving time and money. One homemaker participating in the study had full care of two small children and did all of her own laundry and cleaning. Her view was that she could not regularly spend as much time as the' fully home-prepared meals called for without neglecting other activi ties more important to herfam- ily. Homemakers with paid em ployment might reach the same conclusion. On the other hand, homemaker. with more time on her hands, might prefer to do more home food preparation to cut the cost.' . Window Dummies Lead Hard Life, Say Repair Team Atlanta (U.R) The shop window mannequin has an age and figure problem too. Just like the smartly-dressed woman she is supposed to resem ble, the window dummy needs her hair done frequently, her face "repaired" with a new coat of cosmetics. Even her fieure occasionally must be altered. This almost real life of shop mannequins means big business for a couple of Atlanta sister: Mary and Arthreene Carter. They are experts in repairing and remaking old models and manufacturing new ones. The sisters say there's an art in making a mannequin life like. In their original state, the dummies look like bald statues no eyelashes, eyebrows, hair or facial details. From these beginnings, the sisters study the "personality" of the model, decide on a hair style and color for a wig, usual ly following the latest coiffure. Mary usually makes up the mannequins' faces. First a base coat, then the rouge and lipstick, but. in oil paints instead of cos metics. The Carters use regular finger nail polish base on the mannequins' nails. Window dummies apparently lead a hard life. The Carters say they need repairs about every six months. An expensive model will last 20 or 30 years, but most models are "old" after 10 years. The sisters .say their career has led them to many amusing experiences. One of their fa vorites is the time a tire blew while they were delivering sev eral mannequins. They had to unload the undraped figures and put them alongside the road while they changed the tire. It wasn't long until police ar rived, sirens blaring, to investi gate what appeared to be a ter- riDie accident. , " Cook Chicken by Cut Food Specialist Says Madison, Wis. (U.R) Chicken, like the red meats, should be cooked according to the cut. Uni versity . of Wisconsin food spe cialists say. Meaty pieces can be friend, broiled or barbecued. But the back, neck and wings don't offer enough meat and are difficult to eat when cooked by any of these dry heat methods. The "bargain cuts" of chicken should be cooked with moisture. Cover with water and add chop ped onion, celery, and herbs for flavor. Simmer for about an hour or until the meat easily flakes off the bone. Use the broth for soup or thicken for use on dump lings or toast. The pre-cooked bony pieces and broth also can be canned in a pressure cooker for later use in chicken a la king, salads or sandwich fillings.
