Page Four THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1st, 1945 RED CROSS NUTRITION NEWS MEAT ALTERNATES There's a time and a place for everything and a meatless day is the place to serve such proteinaceous meat alternates as beans, omelets cheese or fish treats. These foods aren't meant to substitute for meat for no one would uphold that a baked bean loaf could double for a T-bone steak, but beans are good food! And these meat "pinch-hitters" may be relied on to furnish valuable proteins so essential to health and growth processes. Food shortages invite a new kind of cookery and common foods must rise to new significance. Meatless dishes lend interesting variety to menus and most certainly ease the strain on rations especially when there's a famine of coupons for the week-end roast. Used in tasty loaves, in rarebits and soups, in souffles and in other tempting ways, these alternate foods make nourishing and delicious entrees, and often a combination of two or three flavors will boost their meal appeal. Leftover bits of vegetables, rice or spaghetti are often the meagre basis of hearty lip-smacking dinner dishes. The recipe which follows one of these, and is a welcome boon to the protein situation as well as to the harried homemaker. Macaroni Loaf 2 cups cooked macaroni 2 tablespoons chopped pimiento % cup finely diced cheese 1 tablespoon minced onion 1 cup dry bread crumbs 1 teaspoon salt V2 teaspoon paprika 2 tablespoons butter, melted 2 eggs, well beaten 1% cups caned or cooked tomatoes Mix all ingredients together thoroughly, turn into greased loaf pan and bake in moderate oven (350 degi F.) about 40 minutes.

It may have other aims, such as to give the merchants a chance to tell of their goods in its columns or to try to influence public oponion through its editorial columns; or to amuse or instruct; but first of all, it must give news. Some of this news is not easily obtained and no editor can cover it without assistance. Therefore, we ask our readers' assitance. Especially is it true when you have visitors. Many of the ladies think that personals are the whole paper. Your visitors naturally are glad to have their names printed. So send them in. Sometimes people come in and give the impression that they are asking a favour when they want us to insert the names of their friends who have been spending a few days with them. No person need fell that way who has an item of real news. C.N.R. PENSIONS PLAN OLDEST ON CONTINENT Montreal, October 30--The Canadian National pensions plan for employees is not only the largest organization of its kind in Canada but is also the oldest on the continent. It was established originally by the Grand Trunk Railway in 1874. Today it covers a payroll of $177,147,000, with the company making a sufficient contribution to provide a basic pension of $300 a year at the retirement age of 65 to all employees with 20 years' continuous service. In addition the company matches payments by workers to a contributory pension scheme.

Price controls remain. Generally, maximum price for farm implements is the price at which such items sold during the basic period, August 15--September 11, 1941. Quoted prices do not include cost of delivery to the purchaser. Under Consumers' Credit Order No. 225, section 10, terms of sale for farm machinery are: 1/3 of quoted price paid in cash; the balance of the credit price to be paid within two years of the date of the contract in stated amounts at specified dates. Any allowance for a trade-in is to be deducted from the unpaid balance. Despite the lifting of production restrictions, it is expected that the shortage of components such as malleable castings and sheet steel will limit the maximum output of farm implements during the year July 1, 1945, to June 30, 1946, to a 24% increase (on tonnage basis) over the output in the preceding 12 months. Farmers' Poultry Prices Farmers selling all types of poultry, except turkeys, direct to consumers are permitted a 25% markup over the wholesale ceiling prices established for the zone in which they are located. Turkey producers are allowed a 20% markup over the wholesale level. Potato Storage Allowance (Order A-1560 now in effect) A storage allowance of 5c per 75-lb. bag of potatoes and 7c per 100-lb. bag is allowed on November 1. Another 5c per 75-lb. bag and 6c per 100-lb. bag may be added on December 1, and another 5c per 75-lb. bag and 7c per 100-lb. bag on January 1, 1946. There will be no storage adjustment for February but monthly increases will be resumed on March 1. FARMERS' RATION COUPONS Coupons covering farmer sales or farm household consumption of meat and butter, and sales of preserves must be forwarded to Local Ration Boards in primary producers' envelopes (RB-61). Reports for November should reach the Local Ration Boards not later than December 10. Following are the valid coupon dates for November: MEAT BUTTER SUGAR PRESERVES M 9 128 M 10 M 11 129 v. 66,67 P 20, 21 M 12 130 M 13 13-1 29.. Farmers are required to send in "M" coupons to the Local Ration Board for meat they consume, and meat they sell to farmer neighbours at the rate of 4 lbs, per coupon. Farmers who slaughter meat need not turn in at the end of the month more than half the valid meat coupons in the ration books of their household. Farmers who purchase meat from other farmers must surrender to the selling farmer one meat coupon for every 4 lbs. of meat purchased, even if this means surrendering coupons not yet valid. FARM SLAUGHTERERS Farmers who slaughter for their own household consumption or for the consumption of their farmer neighbours, are not required to hold a slaughter permit. Any excess of farm slaughtered meat over the farmer's or his neighbour's needs may be sold only to the holder of a regular slaughter permit in quantifies not less than a quarter of Beef or a side of Pork. Sheep, lamb or calves slaughtered by the farmer for his own or his neighbours' use may not be sold into the meat trade. Licensed slaughterer's quotas for cattle have been temporarily suspended and until further notice a licensed slaughterer may slaughter all the cattle needed for his requirements. j, is your assurance of a fair share, is a protection against waste... shortages... inflation. That is why farmers are asked to continue to collect and turn in coupons to their Local Ration Boards--once a month--in the RB-61 envelope.
