fun and find plenty of flavor
and nourishment in shaking
their own.

Best Food Buys
TTarh familv "home econo

dium or low cost of living
index dependent almost en
tirely on whether or not she
takes advantage of fresh
foods that are seasonally
KTiHant and of "specials"
advertised and displayed in
her favorite marneis.
Fresh friut and vegetable
men must merchandise har
vest peaks by moving out ex
ceptional quantities of fresh
produce to make way for to
morrow's arriving truck
loads. The old law of supply
and demand creates the "best
buys". There's August abun
dance of practically every
thing that grows so smart
shoppers will feed the family
these and skip the luxuries.
Plenty of corn-on-the - cob
for quick-cooking (not more
than five minutes if it is real
ly fresh), for foil wrapping
and roasting, for cooking and
cutting from the cob for a
wide variety of dishes. Bell
peppers for stuffing with
ground meat and bread
crumbs, macaroni and cheese
and many other combinations
as well as for salads and pep
per rings for relish. Lettuce
of good quality for the daily
salad with romaine variable
in quality. Potatoes and on
ions for potato salad, chow
ders and a thousand other
items. Summer squash, un
peeled, makes good eating.
Tomatoes are cheaper. Cu
cumbers are lower. Cabbage, ;
carrots, and celery are abun-.
dant for enjoyment raw or
cooked. Green beans are in
good supply.
Fruit buys include canta
loupes, Thompson seedless
grapes, lemons, oranges,
peaches, pears, nectarines,
melons. If you're canning,
freezing or otherwise preserv
ing fruits,' keep in .constant
touch with your fruit man for
his good advice as to when to
buy.
Poultry and Meat. Broiling,
frvine and stewing chickens
continue plentiful. Turkeys
are very good buys, in Deei,
rhnrir is a biff bareain and so
is freshly ground hamburger.
Good values in lamb wnn
breast practically a gift,
shoulder chops and roasts
reasonable. Buy pork spare
riVie hnnpless butt ham, pic
nic hams, sausage and table-
ready meats.
Other Items. Good . fresn
fish buys. Plenty of dairy
products with ice cream often
featured. Canned tuna spe
cials enomiraee one to buy a
dozen cans.' Versatile canned
apple sauce and canned cran
berry sauce are good Duys

butter at small cost. Scan this

Cost of Living
Reported Declined
New York (DPD The cost
of living declined in July for
the first time in more than
two years, the National In
dustrial Conference Board re
ported Thursday.
The decline, a slight one
tenth of 1 per cent, marks
the first break in the infla
tionary spiral that began in
1956 after almost three years
of price stability.
Declines in food, housing
and apparel costs offset in
creases in transportation and
sundries, sending the board's
over-all index down 0.1 per
cent from June to 107.4 per
cent of the 1953 base period.
The index was 2.5 per cent
above July, 1957.
The conference board's in
dex of consumer prices has
risen 26 consecutive months
before the July break. With
the economy showing signs of
recovery from the depths of
the shortest but deepest post
war recession, some econom
ists have warned that infla
tionary forces may pick up
steam.
