Food News
Fresh fruits and vegetates
offer some top economy buys
at Texas grocery markets this
week, according to Mrs.
Gwendolyne Clyatt, consumer
marketing information
specialist with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Ser-
vice, The Texas A&M
University System.
FRESH FRUITS - Items in
best supply at the most
economical prices are cran-
berries, grapefruit, oranges,
apples, tangelos, tangerines,
bananas and grapes.
In selecting cranberries, look
for plumpness, good color and
size uniformity. Also, they are
easy to freeze. Simply put the
original package in the freezer.
FRESH VEGETABLES -
fresh potatoes and onions are
this week’s “spotlight items”
for thrifty choices. Other good
values are cooking greens,
hardshell squash and sweet
potatoes. Additional economy
buys are pumpkin, carrots,
broccoli, eggplant, cabbage,
rutabagas and green peppers.
POULTRY - Fryer chicken
prices have “fluttered” up-
ward slightly, but whole
chickens are still an economy
choice. In egg buying, Grade A,
large-size eggs generally are
the best value, although prices
are a bit higher. That trend
likely will continue through the
holiday season as demand for
eggs increases.
PORK - Good choices in-
clude smoked picnics, fresh
shoulder roasts and steaks,
assorted chops and liver.
BEEF -- Specials focus on
beef chuck roasts and steak,
round steak, ground beef, liver
and some of the more tender
cuts, such as sirloin steak.
Also, consider boneless cuts,
because they do offer more
servings from each pound than
most other cuts.

Letters To The Editor
Members of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars Post No. 3079
and the Ladies Auxiliary wish
to express their heartfelt ap-
preciation for the support the
community gave to their an-
nual barbecue.
The weather was perfect; the
people having to stand in a long
line to be served did so
patiently; and the barbecue
was a complete sell-out fully an
hour earlier than had been
anticipated when the serving
hours were designated.
It was indicated on the
tickets that the proceeds from
this event would be used for
improvement of the Post
building which had been
vandalized just recently. This
certainly will be done, and your
generosity and your full sup-
port of this project is a splendid
example of community
cooperation.
