How to Lower
Hints From the
Jus
l i
HOUSEWIVES BUY LAMB AND
MUTTON UNWISELY.
The Eat More Lamb campaign which
is being conducted throughout the
country at the present time before col
leges, domestic science schools, women's
clubs,- various institutions, public
schools, meat markets, etc., has
brought before the general public the
value of lamb as a food product, but
especially has it demonstrated the
value and economy of the cheaper cuts
of lamb which have been neglected. It
has been a contention of the retailer
for years that a great part of the
fore quarter?the neck, shoulder,
shank and breast?must be sold at a
loss or eventually reach the scrap or
bone box.
Some retail butchers bone out these
cheap fore-quarter cuts, put them
v through the meat grinder, season them
and mold them up into lamb patties,
putting a strip of bacon around each
one, leave them in the cooler over
night and sell all of them next day at
good prices. Many butchers could sell
more than they can supply. The butcher
has thus turned into an asset or
profitmaker that portion which has
heretofore been considered a loss.
Steaks and roasts can be had from
the shoulder, lamb rolls from the neck,
breast and shoulder, and neck slices
are obtained by cutting the neck in
sections crosswise, so that the meat has
the appearance of chops and is a very
Inviting dish when used as a stew or
potted lamb casserole. The cheaper
cuts of lamb are made from the
breast, shoux*?er, shank and neck
which combined are about 18 per cent
of the lamb.
Lamb is a. w=?thful food for all people.
It is wrr nutritious, wholesome
and palatable **?d in caloric value it is
equal or superior to any other meat.
The boned and rolled shoulder mentioned
above is used for roasting purposes;
it can also be cut to any desired
weight or can be sliced into
Saratoga chops.
United States government statistics
tell us that each year the average
housewife buys for every person in
her household only about 5 pounds of
lamb as compared with about 71
pounds of pork and 67 pounds of beef.
/ If all American families used lamb
one day a week it would mean more
than 20 pounds of iamb annually per
capita, or four times the present consumption.
More than that, the head of the family,
who pays the bills, would no doubt
Shakespeare Down to Date.
Justice Wayne, dramatic actress,
finds an explanation of the question as
to why Shakespearian plays seldom
win financial reward in what she
terms Shakespeare's inability to give
his productions catchy titles. She suggests
a repertoire of the bard's plays
rechristened to meet popular demands
for stimulating titles. She suggests
"How Could You, Juliet?" as more appropriate
than plain "Romeo and
Juliet" She also would substitute
"Call of the Flesh" for "The Merchant
of Venice;" "Strangled in Bed" for
"Othello; 'The Nutty Princess" for
"Hamlet;" "Henry, Whom Do You
Love?" for "Henry V;" "Big Dick" for
"Richard the Third;" "The Knife" for
" Jul ins Caesar" and "Moonlight and
Honeysuckle" for "Midsummer Night's
Dream."

Cheerful Exterminator.
On moving into oui honeymoon
apartment we discovered that it was
. sadly in need of the services of an exterminator.
With a bride's ignorance
of apartment house life and the clubby
ways of the cockroach, I regarded
this as a personal disgrace, and took
great care to keep it a profound secret
from our friends.
One day, while exhibiting my shiny
new kitchen equipment to a girl
friend, I answered the back-door buzzer,
and there was the exterminator,
inquiring in a loud, cheerful tone,
"Well, how axe the cockroaches?"
The situation reduced my mind to
such a pulp that I babbled, 'they're
* well, thank you!"?Exchange.
The Bite That Failed.
As a rule the relations between
Russians and Japanese soldiers in Siberia
have been friendly enough. But
at a town on the Transiberian railway,
which had just been freed from the
foul tyranny of bolshevist rule, a Jap
' anese soldier haled a Dig, staring
moujik into the presence of his commanding
officer. "What has he been
doing?" asked the colonel. "I gave
him a cigarette," said the soldier,
"and then he tried to bite me!" Kissing,
even between members of the opposite
sexes, is not a Japanese cus.to

your Meat Bills
i Department of
tice
encourage purchasing the cheaper
lamb cuts instead of merely a few
chops at a time. A shoulder of lamb,
being smaller than the average beef
joint and less expensive, should appeal
especially to small families.
The marketing expeditions should
be an education in economy.
i It usually pays to shop before you
i buy.
It usually pays to do your marketing
personally rather than telephone your
i order.
Lamb steaks and lamb chops take
but a few moments to cook, but they
i are the most expensive cuts. As a
lamb is not all chops and steaks, other
and less expensive parts of the animal
must be used and can be made into
tasty dishes. Breast of lamb coni
tains more meat than bone, yet it often
L sells for half the price of pork spareribs,
and some retailers on account of
a limited demand for the fore-quarter
cuts tind it necessary to convert these
cheaper cuts into sausage in order to
sell them at all.
Lamb is a somewhat seasonable
meat, by far the greater part of live
lambs reaching the market during the
; latter half of the year. In the spring
around Easter time, lamb may be as
, high or higher than other meats. In
the fall and early winter it is nearly
; always much cheaper.
The following average prices compiled
by the National Wool Growers'
association from representative re.
tailers throughout the country show
. comparative levels of the different
, meats in the fall season as they occurred
in the middle of October, 1919.
These figures are not applicable now,
except that they emphasize a typical
. relationship:
> Lamb?Leg, 37 cents; loin, 44 cents;
i shoulder, 27 cents; rib chops, 46%
cents.
Sheep?Leg, 29 cents; loin, 28 cents;
shoulder, 16% cents; chops, 35 cents.
Pork?Loin, 43 cents; fresh ham, 35
! cents.
Beef?Sirloin, 45 cents; porterhouse,
48 cents; tenderloin, 50 cents;
round steak, 38 cents.
These prices were for the best-quality
meats in all cases.
Mutton Stew With Barley.
Cut meat from neck or breast into
i small pieces. Put in kettle with wa.
ter to cover. Use about 1% cupfuls wa.
ter to a pound of meat Add onions,
carrot, Salt and pepper. For each pint
liquid add 1-3 cup pearl barley. Simmer
gently two or three hours.
|4 The New Age.
A pretty Philadelphia girl ' at a
Newport dance wore a rose-colored
gown of the new "bareback" fashion.
Very decollete in front, the gown's
bodice in the rear opened in a broad
V almost to tne waist. There were
no sleeves to the rose-colored gown;
on the contrary it was cut out under
the arms like the jerseys worn by athletes.
It had, to be sure, a dainty
wisp of a train, but nevertheless the
flimsy skirt was so exiguous that as
the girl whirled about the ballroom
to the wild strains of the jazz band
it was frequently possible to see that
her garters had ruby buckles.
A Philadelphia matron said to
George Gould as the girl floated past:
"Joan is a lovely creature, but all
her interests are wrapped in clothes."
"Evidently her interests only,
ma'am," said Mr. Gould with a cynical
smile.
PREPARE FOR COLLEGE
NEW CAMPAIGN SLOGAN
PUBLIC SCHOOL* TO OBSERVI
MAY 14 TO GIVE STIMULUS .
TO IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.
Public scheols here hare been r*
guested to observe May 14, which has
beet designated "Prepare for College
Dtfcy" la tow state a ad in the other
stales comprising the Fifth Federal
Reserve District.
During chapel exereiees, or at other
pacified periods that day, ft is aug*
fseted that addresses be made in the
high schools by leading business mea
end prominent educators, and in the
alwnentanr schools by the teachers.
Ttat purposes of the observance, it is
explained, are to stress the Importunes
of a college education and to offer
suggestive methods whersby the puPtta,
and their parents, may plan ahead
with a college course definitely in
view.
Woman's elubs are being askid to
help in the movement, and the Rotary
elubs also are expected to take part,
while many churches have expressed
their interest and indicated their desirs
to participate. Further, the United
States Treasury Department^
through the district War Loan Organ ieatioB,
is lending assistance, and the
general plan, it is announced, has re*
eeived the heartiest approval of practically
every college president in the
state.
Miss Mary G. Shotwell, director of
the educational division of the War
Loan Organization of this district, recently
discussed the project before the
convention of the Virginia Association
of Women'# Colleges and Stehooto. The
association, by resolution, pledged its
"smears and hearty co-operation ta
carry lag out all the plans."
k to proposed by the Treasury Department
that parents who desire to
??td their none and daughters to soltogas
and that boys and girls who wish
la provide a .asltoge fund tor themthhrei?that
they definitely plan tor
the future and make regular systematic
saving a part of their plan. A#
ssde, productive investments tor rush
funds government securities, suofe as
Treasury fiavinfs Certificates and War
Savings Stamps, are suggested.

Enormous Demand for Fur* '
Siberian furs are almost entirely
shipped in the raw state. Very few
furs are sent abroad, the exceptions
being Tibetan lamb, mufflin (plucked
goat skin), and a few other varieties.
The great demand for furs in all countries
and the keen competition in the
trade has sent up the prices of raw
furs to figures unheard of a few years
ago. Sables have enormously increased
in value, due to the short supply and
the closure of the Russian sable markets.
Port of Shanghai.
The port of Shanghai does perhaps
40 per cent of the entire foreign trade
of China, and of the total imports of
Shanghai for the year 1918, the United
States furnished about 16 per cent
Chinese industries which are prosperous
are cotton spinning, shipbuilding
and flour milling. Railway projects
I command attention. x

Please. Doctor, Make Us Pretty!
Dr. Seymour Oppenhelmer of New
York writes to the Medical Record expressing
the hope that the long strides
made in what is called "cosmetic" surgery
during the war may not be lost
to the civil population.
He says that this surgery for the
sole purpose of beautifying ugly persons
was always considered "rather a
shady business" in which no reputable
surgeon would engage.
But there are so many ugly faces
and their beautiflcation would make
i their owners happy, some surgeon the
. richer by a fee, and the world at large
happier for not being obliged to look
at ugliness, that this is the auspicious
moment for taking cosmetic surgery
cut of the hands of charlatans and
quacks and putting it into those of
ikilled practitioners.
It is.

' one."?Louisville Courier-Journal.
