Better Grading
Do you buy by grade where
possible? Would you be more
liable to buy food by grade if
grade names were uniform for
all products? Do you think grad
ing should cover more consumer
commodities?

For rural people,

forthcoming at the
Farm Forum discussions. For all
consumers it should be worth
consideration also.
Most of our grading comes
from government inspected pack

and consumers must be on their
toes to understand the variety of
grade names. For butter we have

while those fresh fruits and
vegetables that are graded bear
the grade numbers 1, 2 and 3.
Local Foods
Where we buy locally grown
food there is not much ’ indica
tion to us, except by price which
is also seasonal, what to expect
by way of quality. Our trust that
the product meets expectations is
based on buying judgment of
the merchant and the appearance
of the food as it is displayed.
We might point to meat as an
example. Our inexperienced eye
will not be able to tell if the
chuck roast we buy is cut from
the animal close to the neck or
near the ribs. Thus we may ar
rive home with a pot roast or
one worthy of oven tendin
Grading might help here.

Perhaps grading on the level

afferded loss of time as well
added costs—eventually pass-
on to the consumer. However,

me some recipes from "that part

Acorn Squash
(Mrs. H. H. Wallace)
Cook whole squash in oven
until tender. Cut and scoop pulp
from halves. To it add:
1 tbsp, chopped onion
3 tbsps. chopped green pepper
1 cup grated cheese
1 tsp. salt
Vz tsp. pepper
3 cups soft bread crumbs
Mix well and pile into shells
of the squash. Bake 15 minutes
in 350° oven. (Then listen to the
compliments, she adds.)♦ * * *
Along with the squash recipe,
came one for a casserole dish
which makes use of left-overs.
My sister adds, ‘‘When you serve
this, your family will love you.
