Foy. | (Special Food Expert of The Evening World.) | The decision of the Secretary of | War, through the demands of the| Evening World, in placing the vast | amount of surptus foods on sale in this country is one of the many great victories that the consumers of the United States have gained. The meat packers and the speculators generally | advised that these immense stores of excellent foods should be turned over some foreign Government, while our own people might continue thé struggle under the dominating power | of the large packers. | The meats in question were packed under the supervision of the Govern- ent and are not only scientifically prepared but the best cattle in the United States were selected for army | and navy purposes, while the me. dium grade of steers was only avall- able for domestic consumption during The follow- ing comprise the list of meats and the various styles of package: ROAST BREY, Ready for conmumption...+.....5 Regarding the bacon, the Secretary notes that 8,686,000 pounds are crated and located in Chicago, Baltimore and Columbus, O. ‘These meats were purchased by the | Government when the wholesale mar- | ket was much lower than at present, and will be sold by the War Depart- | ment to dealers and distributers at| best offers obtainable for domestic consumption. The total amount of the surplus) meats is fully 153,147,000 pounds, and it is thought this amount will be vast. ly increased from time to time as the returning soldiers are being mustered out. Interviews with the leading chefs and successful operators of many restaurants as to the practicability of placing this food in the reach of the average consumer brought out the | following points: One chef declared that “the roast meat could be used by ordinary restaurants, families and delicatessen stores, while it was ideal for country resorts, camps and such places, where it is difficult to get ice.” He continued, “With an ice famine this year, this canned meat will not only be desirable but it will be eco- nomical.” Several of the leading chain stores have the matter under consideration, withholding their decisign until they can learn the probable” cost of the various meats. Housewives and other consumers should advise their butchers or chain store distributers as to what styles of these meats would be bess adapted for their individual use, ‘The Evening World will advise consumer® as to where these foods can be secured, in- cluding the style of package and cost. Through the constructive publicity of The Evening World in keeping the searchlight of publicity turned on speculators in foods the price of | creamery ‘utter has dropped 65 cents in a week, and consumers should demand the benefit of the lower price. The wholesale prices on beef are fully 2 cents per pound lower than a week ago and 6 cents lower than three weeks ago. Prime steers are now offered at 23 cents, while most of the butchers are not paying more than 19 to 21 cents. Heifers are not costing over 16 to 18 cents. This should be welcome news to the con- sumers, and dealers who are fair should lower their prices to the con- sumers to correspond with the whole. sale prices. Veal calves are lower again this week and consumersshould not pay more than quoted at end of week for finest milk veal, Fresh fish is in good supply this week and prices are generally lower. Receipts at Fulton Market were heavy and the fish of excellent qual- ity. ‘Two steam trawlers, the Sea Bird and the Petrel, brought tn 150,000 pounds of haddock and some other varieties, Fresh water fish are also plentiful, and the Hebrew housewife will get her supply of fish cheaper this week than at any other time so far this season. . Fresh vegetables of all kinds, in- cluding asparagus and tomatoes, are much cheaper, Peaches are much lower in price, while strawberries, cantaloupes and watermelons are more plentiful and lower in price, | Finest creamery butter should not cost more than 68 to 60 cents this | week for the same grade that sold at 65 to 68 cents per pound last week. ee IN MRS, HOWE’S MEMORY.
