The menus and recipes 'are being chosen by the British Farm Pro- duce Council, and will be varied according to the weather and the price variations of the foods in- volved: They will be changed each day, and will include such items as devilled pork chops; broiled fillets of plaice and breaded veal chops. Alastair Dunnett, editor-in-chief of The Scotsman, and executive of- ficer of the Farm Produce Coun- cil, said: "We shall not provide recipes of anything really exotic. We aim to recommend the sort of meal which people with average incomes can afford."' Mr. Dunnett and Lady Allison Balfour with the help of experts from agricultural organizations, will compile the recipes for. each day. The using of this service by the housewife is quite simple. She merely dials "ASK 8071" and list- ens, with a pencil and paper handy. Then a record will spell out the menus and recipes, at writing speed, to be copied down and used. The only cost of the service to the housewife is the ordinary charge for a telephone call. As a sample, here is the tele- phone service recipe as it comes from the GPO recording: chops, one ounce of dripping (cooking fat), two onions, two tea- spoons of dried mustard, half pint of water, one tablespoon of tom- ato sauce, three cloves, one small cooking apple, peeled and sliced, and salt as desired. "Trim the chops and brown in the fat. Remove from pan. Brown chopped onion, adding flour and mustard until pale brown. Add the water, sauce, and sliced and peeled apple and salt. Turn. chops and sauce into a casserole. Cover and simmer gently in a moderate oven for 45 minutes." If anything goes wrong, the Bir- mingham housewife can always dial 999, the number for police, medical and ambulance service.

Wickwire -was handed a law book and introduced to his three clients. _ . They were convicted. Alameda, Calf. -- Herman tie tom cat arranged to go to Ohio and woo a prospective bride. --.
