LowXost Meats
In some recent dietary .work done
by my classes in the high school the
question came frequently, "What kind
of, meat can you serve that doesn't
cost much? What is there besides
plain stew?" The idea seems very gen
eral that steaks, chops, roasts and
stews are the only meat possibilities:
and when the first three are barred
by prohibitive cost, there seems no
resources beyond the last. And of
stews, the kind most generally known
and used is the inevitable beef stew
with potatoes and carrots. Not that
such a stew is not palatable; it is, but
it is also tiresome, the following
recipes are an attempt to suggest
meat possibiltti when the 'ncorae will

allow an expenditure of only 5 cents
per person. Some of them will prove
slightly more expensive and a few
possibly a trifle cheaper. The cost may
not cover vegetables where large
quantities are called for, as in stew.
A sliank ot beet is (he cheapest
meat on the market. As a meat it
proves not so cheap because of the
small amount ot edible meat on it.
However, made into a good soup with
plenty of vegetables and rice or bar
ley,' it satisfies the desire for meat
and turnishes a nourishing dish.

Strawberries Both Fine
And Cheap on the Market
' This is the good old strawberry
time. The strawbery crop down in
Louisiana is bounteous. If it is a
forecast of crops in general we shall
have great plenty. Strawberries on
the local market are now selling at
only tO cents for a quari box and
they are certainly fine berries, hist as
fine in flavor as they are in appear
ance, too. So strawberries and cream
and good old-fashioned strawberry
short cake and strawberry pie and all
the many good things that can be
made with strawberries are finding a
big place on Omaha tables. Now is
certainly the tinie to eat them. With
strawberries' at 20 cents a quart, they
cost less than twice as much as pota
toes. Twenty cents a quart would be
$1,60 a peck for strawberries, while
potatoes ace selling at 83 cents a pecK.
Potatoes hold to about the same price
as last week. They come chiefly from
Idaho and Colorado with a few also
from Washington state.
Cabbage holds to its high price,
around 15 cents a pound, at which
figure cauliflower is selling also.
Rhubarb is extremely plentiful and
tv large bunches 'cost only a nickel.
Home grown asparagus is of ex
cellent quality and small price. 5 to
10 cents a bunch.
Cucumbers can be obtained at :
cents each. Onions, both the little
green fresh ones and the big ones of
other years are plentiful Lettuce is
fine and radishes, too.
Big, fine "ox heart" cherries from
California, the kind that come in
'those flat boxes, arc on the Omaha
market at about 40 cents a mound.
Oranges are plentiful at the usual
prices. Grape fruit is still here, but -no
longer so abundant. Fresh limes
are 40 cents a dozen.
Fresh string beans at 15 cents a
quart or thereabouts arc very good.
Tomatoes are on hand from Florida.
browned in the oven as any other
crust. This kind of pie is called Cot
tage Pie. v
To add flavor to meat that has
simply been boiled, it may be cut into
pieces and combined with a cereal
and a highly seasoned sauce. Soup
meat is very palatable treated this
way. Some of my students were very
scornful of a combination of beef,
hominy and tomato sauce baked to
gether in the oven; but after tasting,
several of the most skeptical were
convinced of the palatability of the
dish.
