Swin Steak
Howi and Whyi
Use pai t of your share of that
super abundance of beef like this.
Ask your meat man to cut you
a chuck steak from the beef
. shoulder instead of the more ex
pensive round steak. Same fine
flavor and satisfying nourish
ment at surprisingly low cost.
Pound seasoned flour into the
meat as usual. To flavor steak
interestingly add some dry must
ard and paprika to the salt and
pepper in the flour. Or a bit of
poultry seasoning, oregano,
or marjoram. Brown steak thor
oughly in hot fat for good ap
pearance. Lightly browned meat
becomes pale during cooking pro
cess. Make it dark brown and
rich-looking.
For the liquid in which to rook
a bwiss steak, use canned toma
toes or tomato juice. Helps ten
derize shortens cooking time,
adds to f.avor and color interest.
Add a dash or two of Worcester
shire. Some like to add sliced
or diced onions, sliced celery
and'or grated carrots.
Festive Spare Ribs
' In Sweet-Sour Sauce

1 n g . Plentiful, bargain-priced
pork spareribs become dish to be

pany when baked in cherry

Cod Gets Nod
From Good Cooks
For May-time seafood variety,
the family will thoroughly enjoy
fresh cod. Flavorful, plentiful,
economical, our good north Paci
fic cod (the same kind that used
to get only split, salted and
dried) is marketed as fresh and
fresh frozen fillets and is very
popular Fresh cod may be broil
ed, baked, boiled, steamed or
used in chowder. Flake it for an
excellent cream dish for serv
ing on toast, potatoes or rice.
Broiled Cod Fillets. Flour the
fillets and oil them well with
butter, oil or other fat. Place
about two inches from flame and
baste once or twice. Do not turn
them. Fillets take only five to
eight minutes dependent on
thickness. Season after cooking.
Serve with lemon wedges; lemon
butter, parsley butter or Hol
landaise sauce.
Sauteed Cod. You can use
whole fish, fillets or steaks for
this, though whole fish are not
so readily available. Dip the
cleanei fish in milk and roll in
flour. Melt plenty of butter in
skillet When it is hot but not
burned, add fish 'and saute until
nicely browned on one side. Turn
and brown on other side. Remove
to hot plate, salt and pepper to
taste, sprinkle with chopped
parsley. Perfection! No sauces,
please.
Ways With Cucumbers
With us the year round, cu
cumbers are most often sliced or
slivered, leaving the peeling on.

to feed the family more beef as
beef in super abundance rolls

time to stock freezer. There are
good buys in standing rib roasts,
in all cuts of steaks for broiling.
There are bargains in good
eating in pot roasts; round bone

sirloin tip. There are specials on
braising (long slow-cooking cuts)

stew beef (shoulder, round, neck
meat, shank meat, brisket, plate
and flank) Consider boiling beef
(but dont' boil it; let it simmer

Figures of
Higher by
By H. D. QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York' (U.R) The
just-announced United Nations
count of heads in this world puts
it at 2,652,000,000 with 37,
000,000 being added each year
and the rate of increase going
up.
If you think of taking a popu
lation roughly the equivalent of
that in the whole northeast re
gion of the United States (New
England plus New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania) and
slamming it every year onto the
globe's livable land in addition
to the humanity already there,
you've got an idea of what's
happening.
A gazeteer will show' you that
there are around 50,000,000
square miles of land space avail
able for habitation. This is ex
cluding the six ' million square
miles of Antarctica, which may
be a nice place to visit but
doesn't seem to draw many per
manent residents.
With 2,652.000,000 human
beings already in that 50,000,
000 square,jniles, and the yearly
increase gaining on itself (it was
only 20,000,000 per year in the
1920s, 23,700,000 in the 1930s,
25,400,000 in the 1940s, and
jumped to 37,000,000 in 1950-54)
someday the Earth is going to
find the statistics catching up
with themselves in a human
glut.
At that point we presumably
are going to be standing on each
other's shoulders or sitting on
each other's laps, which might
be more interesting provided
there are enough blondes.
Cold Figures
The United Nations "Demo
graphic Yearbook 1955," just
published, gives the cold figures,
as of mid-1954. It does not ven
ture a cure. The big growth since
1950, comes from higher birth
rates plus longer life expectancy
due to medical science and im
proved social welfare.
The UN's marshaling of cen
sus reports and estimates pro
duced some interesting side
lights. A girl born in Holland
can expect to live to the age of
72.9. A girl born in India can
expect to live to 31.7. These are '
the highest and lowest life ex-:
pectancies among countries re-!
porting vital statistics to the
UN. !
In most countries, women live
two to seven years longer than
men.
The male-female ratio is sort
of an East-West affair. - There
are more women than men in ;
American and European cities, ;
fewer women than men in Asian
and Arab countries.
In cities of 100,000 or more in
Denmark, Sweden, England and
Wales there are only about 89
men to 100 women. But in Cey
lon the figure is 173 men to 100
women.
In that behemoth of countries,
Communist China, the popula

make out, is 582,600,000. In 1948
it had 463,400,000. .

the basis of census reports and
estimates, have more than 900,

McKay Takes Bid
For Senate Seat
To Astoria Area
Astoria (U.R) ' Douglas
McKay carried his campaign to
capture the Republican nomina
tion as U. S. Senator to Astoria
yesterday where he had a full
round of visits to canneries and
business establishments planned
and a luncheon address before
the Kiwanis club.
Wednesday the former Interi
or secretary visited Newberg,
McMinnville and Seaside in his
quest for May 18 primary votes.
At Seaside McKay followed up
his earlier criticism of Sen.
Wayne Morse and his actions in
Congress.
Cites Morse's Record
Specifically McKay singled
out Morse's record regarding the
tightening of mining laws to pro
tect timber lands.
McKay pointed out that five
years ago, while he was govern
or of Oregon, the state Legisla
ture passed a memorial asking
Congress to tighten the mining
laws to prevent the filing of
claims for the purpose of obtain
ing timber.
"Morse neither spoke for the
memorial on the floor of the
Senate nor did he introduce a
bill to implement the wishes of
the people of Oregon as ex
pressed by their legislature,"
McKay said.
"It wasn't until the Eisen
hower administration a law was
passed by Congress in 1955
which accomplished in part the
objectives of the 1951 legislative
memorial from Oregon," McKay
added.

Hospital Nursery:
Quarantined in LA
Los Angeles '(U.R) Authori
ties quarantined the nursery at
the Los Angeles County General
hospital today because of' the
deaths of three premature "ba
bies from a bacterial infection:
. The city . health department
disclosed yesterday the three
infants had died since Monday
in the nursery. The department
said a preliminary study by epi
demiologists indicated that the
deaths were caused by a staph
ylococcus infection. . .
Dr. George M. Uhl, city health
officer, said the infection threat
ened an undisclosed number of
babies who were quarantined to
the nursery. He said no new in
fants have been admitted to the
hospital following the outbreak.
Uhl said the department's re
search investigators were at
tempting to determine cause of
the infection in the hospital nur
sery. He said if local authorities
were unable to halt the spread
of the infection, the California
Health, department would join
in the study. . . ..
The death-dealing infection so
far only has been reported in
the nursery and other parts of
the hospital have not .been -affected.
