Food Shoppers
“Talk Turkey”
Many food shoppers are
"talking turkey” when they visit
their favorite supermarkets
these days. They’re especially
vocal in their praise of turkey
roasts and turkey roils.
“In fact, more than a fourth
of all turkey meat presently go-
ing into processed good prod-
ucts is being used for these pop-
ular turkey roasts and turkey
rolls,” says Mrs. Gwen Clyatt,
Texas A&M University Exten-
sion consumer marketing spe-
cialist.
Scientists with the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture have
recognized the need for helping
consumers do a better job of
shopping for these turkey
roasts, the boneless meat pre-
pared in ready-to-cook form.
They’ve developed a grade stan-
dard — the first established by
USDA for a food product proc-
essed from poultry, explains
Mrs. Clyatt.
Turkey roasts which bear
the “U. 0. Grade A” shield are
graded by specialists in USDA’s
Consumer and Marketing Serv-
ice, which administers all
grading programs for farm food
products. This food grading is
voluntary, and a firm using the
program pays for official grad-
ing as a service to you — the
customer. To date, more than
a dozen poultry processors are
using the grading service for
poultry roasts.
Processing of the poultry
roasts undergoes careful scru-
tiny from a grader from the
time the birds are examined by
Federal inspectors until the
finished product is packaged.
Should the product fail to meet
any of the factors for the
Grade A standard anywhere
along the line, it cannot bear
the grade shield.
Food shoppers this week will
find fryers featured at lower-
than-usual prices at some retail
stores. They’re in good supply
and the quality is excellent.
There’s little change in retail
beef prices, yet good values are
to be found on chuck roasts,
steaks, ground beef, roasts and
rib steaks.
Fresh vegetables and fruits
offer some excellent buys. Snap
beans, yellow squash, carrots,
celery and head lettuce are
among items worthy of your
consideration. Dairy products
continue to be high in food
value and low in cost.
You Can Dry,
Clean And Repair
A Flooded House
To reclean a flooded house
and its furnishings and pre-
vent further damage, Mrs.
Laura J. Russell, Texas A&M
Extension area housing and
home furnishings specialist at
Denton says to remove moisture
as quickly as possible by open-
ing all doors and windows to
dry out the house.
If windows are swelled so that
they cannot be raised, you can
take off the small strip that
holds in the lower sash.
Next, you should remove any
accumulation of mud or dirt.
When scrubbing floors and
woodwork to remove silt, use a
wire brush and plenty of water.
The floors and woodwork
should be dried completely be-
fore any attempt at repairs is
made. The heating plant should
be started as soon as it is in
condition to operate. Too much
heat can aggravate shrinkage
and cause deformation of wet
woods.
After the house is dried and
cleaned, it may be possible to
correct buckled flooring by face
nailing. Plaining, sanding, and
refinishing may be the only re-
conditioning needed.
Some old floors may serve as
a base for new floors. Others
may be covered with one of the
newer floorings including lino-
leum, asphalt, rubber, or vinyl.
If floors are badly buckled, it
may be necessary to take up
and re-lay the floor. Plenty of
time should be allowed for dry-
ing before reconditioning is at-
tempted.
Further information on how
to care for water damaged
houses can be obtained from
your county Extension office.

Flooded Homes and Farms,’’

Kleingrass Looks
Good For Pastures
Researchers at Beeville sat up
and took notice when they saw
the size of cattle gains on a
Kleingrass pasture last winter.
At Texas A&M University’s
Coastal Bend Experiment Sta-
tion here, 10 steers grazed a 13-
acre Kleingrass field from No-
vember to March. No supple-
mental feeding was given. Re-
sult: the animals gained an av-
erage of 1.1 pounds a day each,
according to Bill Conrad, A&M
researcher in charge of the test.
Conrad said he is looking for
a grass that will hold some of
its nutritive value into the win-
ter, and eliminate the need for
hay '—' Kleingrass may be the
one.
Kleingrass is a perennial,
warm - season bunchgrass in-
troduced from Africa. It’s ad-
apted to a wide range of soil
types and climatic conditions in
Texas, says Albert Novosad, ex-
tension pasture specialist at
A&M.
Presently, it grows from the
lower Valley, through the Gulf
Coast and Blacklands to the
Panhandle, said Novosad.
According to Dr. E. C. Holt,
grass specialist at A&M, Klein-,
grass begins growing in early
spring and remains green until
late fall. In small plot studies,
the grass has grown well and
maintained a high leaf to stem
ratio, and revealed a high de-
gree of tolerance to cool weath-
er. he said.
In the Beeville test, a freeze
cured the top of the grass, but
the bottom remained green dur-
ing the: entire winter. Accord-
ing to the researchers, steers
ate the cured forage along with
the green growth without any
noticeable selectivity.
They caution that Kleingrass
is not a “wonder” grass — but
at the same time are stepping
up tests, with hopes the good
results will continue.

Some farm water systems do the job ...
some are a job.
When you need a strong flow of water at
one faucet, but it comes out “drip-drip-
drip” because it's already running at an-
other, it’s enough to make you want to
hang up your hat for the day.
A TP&L Farm Service Advisor will be
glad to counsel with you on eliminating the
bothersome, time-consuming problem of a
sluggish water system.
