Mitty Beet Utility grade beef needs to be cooked longer at lower temperatures, with more moisture, and often with added fat to make it appetizing. The more tender cuts of utility beef may be roasted if a temperature around 300 degrees is used, but tougher cuts are better if either pot-roasted or stewed with added moisture and fat, or if' cooked in a pressure cooker. Many homemakers like to vary the flavor of utility beef meat dishes with garlic, onions, tpmatoes, vinegar, green pepper, spice, or garden herbs. If stew is the choice, some like a one-dish meal in which the vegetables are cooked with the meat. This sort of stew has higher food value and usually a more ap-J pealing flavor if the vegetables are added and cooked only until tender. One combination liked by many is meat -pie with or without vegetables, topped with mashed potatoes, hot corn meal, or 4»king powder biscuits.

At Lewisburg, Tenn., 12 pasture plots containing more than two acres each were seeded to various combinations of grasses and clovers, including lespedeza, white clover, hop clover, crimson clover, orchard grass and ladino clover. In most plots, the seeding was done on a prepared seedbed but in some plots it was sown on bluegrass sod. Manure and commercial fertilizer were used in various combinations. A plot that had been limed and fertilized was seeded to a mixture of orchard grass and ladino clover. It produced grazing at the rate of 166 cow-days per acre, with a production of 5,996 pounds of milk per acre, containing 244 pounds of butterfat, and valued at $171.
