There is some- thing about a steaming casserole of savory stew that brings a smile to ev- ery face at the table, And when the fragrant stew is topped by puffy gold- en crust, appetites grow as the eyes take in the sight of it. Now here is, a such a dish—it has everything. Make your stew by one of the listed recipes. The top it with potato puff. The potato puff is made from mashed potatoes. You need 3 cups full. Add the beaten yolks of two eggs, and enough hot milk to moisten it, along with two tablespoons of fat, and any seasoning you like, such as a bit of onion or parsley. Beat the mix- ture well. Fold in stiffly beaten whites epf the eggs and pile the puff on top of the stew. Bake in a moderate oven until it is brown, And here is something else you can do with these delicious potatoes. Put the puff in a greased baking dish and bake it separately. Serve it with meat loaf or an omelet. You can probably think of other combinations that would be good too. Meat Pie Filling pound hamburg steak, 3 'tea- spoons salt, few grains pepper, 36 cup tomatoes, 6 small carrots, slic- ed, % cup peas, 3 large potatoes, dieced, 3 onions. Grease the casserole. Add one layer of the meat, flaker with a fork. Sprin- kle with part of the salt and pepper, add some pieces of the vegetables and continue it within an inch of the top of the casserole. Use enough of the vegetables to fill the spaCe; distribute the meat and seasonings well. Pack lightly so there will be space for them to expand as they cook. The tomat- oes and the natural meat and veget- able juices will provide sufficient mois- ture. Serve as soon as baked.

Owing to the late date on which the bonus eves established last year, there was not strict adher- ence to this rule. The purpose of the bonus, it is point- ed out, is to encourage the marketing of ,clean wool, and to give farmers some inducement to clean and prepare their wool and niarket it in proper condition. This means that all foreign material, such as burrs, chaff, straw and tags should be removed from the fleece before shipping. After the fleece has been removed it should be spread out on a clear area with the clipped side down. Burrs will generally be found on the belly part of the fleece, They eannot be separated frOm the wool so if burrs are present that portion of the fleece should be separated: Chaff is Usually found around the Aneek. portion. Light chaff can be eliminated by simply shaking the fleece well, but 'if shaking fails to take it out, then the very chaffy portion should be separated. The tags are found around the rear end of the fleece and must be trimmed off. That leaves the main body of fleece in a good Clean 'condition. All the rejected portion of the fleece must be Packaged and shipped separately from the clean wool, in order that the latter may be eligible for the bonus. There is a market for the rejects, but, of course, at a lower price, if the Warehouse operator has to open the fleeces and separate chaffy, burry arid tags no bonus will be paid. In addition, fleeces should not be tied with binder twine, tis the twine becomes entangled With the.fleece and cart only be separated with great diffi- ettlty, Thus fleeces tied with binder twine reeeive no bonus. They Should be tied with paper twine *Well can be obtained from any shearer or collector operating on !behalf of a Government Registered Warehouse.
