Bake in 400 degree oven, 70 minutes or until brown. Herbed Halibut The commonest fish dish can be changed into a gour met's delight by the use of herbs. Favorite herbs to use with fish are parsley, chives which now come fresh-frozen and chopped ready for use, fennel, marjoram. Remember to blend the herbs judiciously and add them sparingly be cause all herbs have a strong er flavor after cooking. Six servings of this sauce which is ideal for plentiful coast- caught halibut. 2 pounds halibut steaks or fillets . Herb sauce Buttered bread crumbs Place halibut in a well greased baking dish.

Gourmet Tricks "Food without seasoning is like talk without reasoning said Crosby Gaige, noted epi cure, and we agree. There is glamour in the very thought of spices redolent of adven ture, exploration, romance. Heat canned vegetable soup with a few cloves. When soup comes to simmering point, re move the cloves and serve the soup. Gives a mystical under tone of flavor. IRRIGATION to 60 H.P. From 29 50 up i3 II. P. Shallow 7ell Sggoo ft H.P. DEEP WELL With 42 Gallon Tank and SrajS Charger 15469 Complete When you're boiling beef, add a small onion, a pinch of ginger, a few cloves and a bay leaf to turn a gourmet trick. , Put cooked spinach through the grinder; add a little stock and nutmeg and thicken ever so slightly in the re-heating. Make tiny cubes of day-old bread. Fry them in bacon drippings or other fat; drain and sprinkle over the pureed spinach. A touch of cinnamon in lamb stew gives it the Syrian touch. Syrians use cinnamon in a pepper shaker on the table, like we do pepper (and of course they call it a cinna mon shaker). It's fun experi menting with this different flavor in meats. Retail Food Prices Lower as Income Rises There's an interesting para dox in taking a food view for '60. Retail prices generally are expected to average a lit tle lower than last year. On the other hand, consumer in come probably will be record high and, because of it, con sumers are likely to step up purchases of the more expen sive foods and be willing to pay more for "convenience" foods. Convenience foods, of course, are those where others have done most of the work; provided the built-in maid service, as we used to say. So what happens? We will be paying moie for food, but the foods on the famed Index for the cost of living will be costing less. Looked at anoth er way, it means that we could live better for less, but that we are likely to spend more and consider it a bargain. If you're budget-minded, a little more than a fifth of the average income per capita af ter taxes will be spent for food; the larger the income, j the smaller the percentage, of course-and that's what makes averages. There will be plen ty of meat, poultry and dairy products which are major menu items. Best Buys Egg supplies are high and the quality good because the colder weather helps keep them cold. A grade A egg can become a grade B egg in a day or two at room temper ature. And that should remind you to refrigerate them the minute you get them home. Meat supplies are excellent with good buys in pork and beef, and there's good news for west coast lamb fanciers with specials on many cuts. Poultry. Both chickens and turkeys continue plentiful, make satisfying eating wheth er the family is a two-some or planning a home-coming. Dairy Products. Local milk sheds provide an abundance of protein-rich, calcium, rich milk. There's plenty of local ly made cottage cheese, sour cream, sweet creams, butter milk. Good buys in cheddar cheese. and many of the fancy cheeses. Fruit and Vegetables. Name it and local markets have it! APPLEGATE VALLEY Boy Gets Bobcat Skin By MAUDE ZIEGLER Jacksonville - David Webb, 14-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Webb, will have a bobcat skin to add to the collection of varied items that boys possess.
