PAGE TWENTY THE PROGRESS, Clear-field, Curwensville, Philipsburg, Moshannon Valley, Friday, May 15, T9Sf Weekly Food Review By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Pork and chicken, which rate near the top of any housewife's shopping list when she's bargain should be right up there again this weekend. The nation's supermarkets and neighborhood grocery stores offer a wide list of specials on various pork cuts. Frying chickens predominate among ads featuring fowl. Most of the pork deals are for the less expensive cuts such as email picnic hams, fresh and smoked butts and smoked should- 1 ers. Smoked hams and bacon also are offered, but not as widely.

The large number, of pork items reflect marketings from last fall's 17 per cent greater pig crop. These porkers, plus expectations of a 13 per cent rise in spring pigs, are expected to boost output substantially ahead of 1958. Fryer prices, on the downgrade for some time, are slashed another 2 to 10 cents a pound in a number of areas. Eggs also are on the toboggan, dropping 2 to 4 cents a dozen over a wide area. Special buys on fish are uncommon at this time of year, but rising imports of shrimp have forced prices lower despite smaller catches by U.S.

fishermen. Best vegetables this week are asparagus, iceberg lettuce (although somewhat variable in quality and condition), carrots, celery, new cabbage, potatoes, red radishes, spinach and green or white onions. Fruit features now are Florida cranges and grapefruit, California Valencia and naval oranges, lemons, bananas, pineapples and a few remaining apples if you shop carefully. Increasing shipments make strawberries look pretty good, too, while Western pears and watermelons also are good buys. Special Chorus Is Planned as feature In Homemakers Week The Homemakers Chorus will be a special feature of the 1959 Extension Homemakers Week program for the third consecutive year.

Alfred A. Zirnmer, department of education, Susquehanna University, will direct the chorus as he has done in the preceding years. In announcing the program, Miss Janet Tritt, associate extension home economist, Clearfield County, says practice for the chorus will take the place of two other interest groups. However, this still gives homemakers a chance to participate in two additional groups of their own choice. Forty women have been members of the chorus each year and it is expected that more will participate this year, says Miss Tritt.

The chorus is only one of the 30 different interest groups offered. They include a variety of topics related to homemaking and family living. Women may participate in four different interest groups, indicating their choice when they register. Other features on the three-day program include talks and demonstrations, chicken barbecue, banquet, vesper service, and special entertainment. This seventh annual event, June 15-18, at the Pennsylvania State University, is open to 'all interested homemakers.

Further information on program and cost may be obtained from Miss Tritt, in the post office building at Clearfield. Try a Progress Want Ad They work wonders. Give us a call.
