' meal snack.

Chicken or the egg? Both
come first in Lenten season meal
planning. Eggs are in the head-
. lines, but no strikers here; hens
are working overtime turning
out the year's best buys. In fact
eggs are the lowest priced we've
seen at this season in 10 years.
Refrigerated egg storage, both
in store and at home, is best.
Grade A eggs become grade B
in a few days at room tempera
ture. When you buy. select grade
A s for serving as eggs. Save by
using grade B for ingredient
purposes.
Chickens, broilers and fryers
continue to flood markets at
very low prices for frequent
; menu use. Turkeys are budget
stretchers for large families,
party-giving, week-end enjoy
ment for all.
Fish and Shellfish. West coast
caught fish and shellfish for fine
spring eating include cod. floun
der, sole, halibut, rockfishes,
salmon, clams, crabs, oysters,
shrimp. How about fish sticks,
which are so quickly cooked, for
breakfast for a change?
Cheese and Dairy Products.
Mild, nippy or aged cheddar
cheese goes into many a fine
main dish. A Welsh rabbit with
bits of crisp bacon, with chopped
pimiento or green pepper, or
with chopped pimiento olives
added. Macaroni and cheese, too,
may be dressed up in these and
other imaginative ways. Cook
cheese slowly.
Spring Vegetables. . F.air to
good quality is evident in all
vegetable bin offerings with
plenty of lettuce for salad mak
ing . . . celery for relish and
cooking delights . . . cauliflower
for steaming whole and serving
hot topped with cheese, tomato
or pimiento sauce . . . Mush
rooms of good quality make su
perb luncheon or supper dish
over hot toast points. Tart-sweet
rhubarb is available in increas
ing quantity. Asparagus beckons
for serving hot with lemon but
ter, cold with vinagrette sauce.
Potatoes, onions and cabbage are
budget buys. Bunched vegetables
buys are beets, chard, collards,
green onions, radishes, turnips
Roy Baker Punches
Charging Moose
Fairbanks, Alaska (U.R)
'One-punch" Roy Baker of Mil
waukee claimed the heavyweight
title of Alaska today after a
unanimous decision over an
Alaskan moose that charged his
helpless wife. 1
The 25-year-old Army bands
man, outweighed but not out
gamed, bopped the moose square
on the shoulder Thursday as it
charged his expectant wife who
had slipped and fallen on a patch
of ice as she tried to get into
their home.
Baker, stationed at Ladd Air
Force Base, said he and his wife
and two-year-old son, Scott, were
returning home when the inci
dent occurred. He said they were
stepping out of their car in the
and spinach. Italian squash is
vegetable change, steamed or
french fried.
Fruit Buys. Fruit situation is
about the same. Good quality
apples still around, i thanks to
proper modern refrigeration and
handling. Same thing is true of
pears. Grapefruit galore from
California and Arizona orchards.
Cove Junction Council
Names Police Officer
Cave Junction Ross Turpin
of Grants Pass was given a 90
day probationary appointment as
Cave Junction police officer by
the city council this week. He
replaces Ralph Duncan who took
over as chief of police last week.
Both men must serve three
months before permanent ap
pointments are made.
Discussion by council mem
bers on proposed Main st. im
provement work, resulted in a
general, though unofficial, ag
reement to accept the 80-foot
curb to curb plan submitted by
state highway department en
gineeers last week.
This would mean a 100-foot
right of way, 10 feet on either
side to be used for sidewalks,
and would conform in width
with the new four mile strip of
Redwood highway being built
south of Cave Junction.
driveway when the moose
charged them.
Baker grabbed Scott and told
his wife to get into the car but
she started for the house instead.
She fell as the moose neared
her and Baker, holding Scott in
one arm, belted the moose with
a roundhouse right.
The moose turned and trotted
back into the wilds without ne
gotiating for a return match.
Anaconda Earnings
May Drop in 1957
New York (U.R) The Anacon
da Co. warned Thursday that if
present price levels for copper
prevail through 1957, its earn
ings this year will "be appre
ciably lower" than last year's
record $111,502,358.
"To date, the 1957 average
price is substantially below the
1956 average," Chairman Corn
elius F. Kelley and President
Roy H. Glover told stockholders
in the annual report.
In a letter perfacing the re
p o r t, Kelley and Glover ex
plained that a tight supply-de
mand situation sent copper prices !
to a high of 46 cents in the first j
half of 1956. An easing in domes-;
tic demand in the second half j
resumed in an improved copper j
supply and lower prices.- The
current price of copper is around ,
32 cents a pound. j
As previously reported An-:
aconda's sales last year jumped !
to $749,421,234 from S630.703,-j
042. Last year's earnings came i
to $12.85 a share, against S7.52 a
share in 1955.
