SIMM raw By BARBARA A. MINTER If you enjoy beef, now's the time to take a good look at your local meat counter and take advantage of the great prices. Nearly four-filths of the beef you buy is not naturally tender enough to broil, barbecue or roast. These less tender cuts are where the biggest bargains are to be found. With a little special handling, these less expensive cuts can be made virtually as tender and tasteful as the costlier cuts. Take for instance, some of the cuts which come from the shoulder. These cuts (shoulder roast, shoulder steak, boneless boston cuts, short ribs, flanken-style ribs, and blade roast to name a few) can be bought and stored in the freezer for up to a year. If you decide you want to purchase a whole shoulder, your butcher can give you assistance in determining your family's needs. Other idea for shopping: •Chuck can be ground, cut into stew meat or steaks as well as cut for a roast. 'Uround cnucK Decomes a ueiier uuy over iiaiuburger when it is within 20 cents difference. •The Eye of Round makes a good buy when cutting this roast into 1" - IV steaks. This will produce 12-16 steaks depending on thickness of cut. To make the most of your meat once you have arrived home, remember to cook your meat at lower temperatures to seal in those delicious juices and flavor. Why not enjoy the low cost of beef now while the price is right! Your family will enjoy the following recipes.

By Soil Conservation Service Awards Offered For No-Till Crops By DAVID HARRISON District Conservationist USDA, Soil Conservation Service Warren Soil and Water Conservation District is looking for the best no-till corn and no-till soybeans in the county. A first-place award of ISO and a secondplace award of $25 will be presented to the growers with the best yields. The only restrictions are that the crop must have been planted using no-till, must not have been irrigated and must be in Warren County. harvest and weighing of the yield. Harvest and weighing must be completed in one day. Official rules and applications are available at the Warren Soil and Water Conservation District office, 133*4 S. Main Street, Warrenton. Deadline for the NoTill Corn Contest is November 1&. Deadline for the No-Till Soybean Contest is December 31. No-till planting is a proven method of corn and soybean production. It reduces time in the field, saves fuel, increases organic matter in the soil and holds moisture for the crop. If moisture supplies remain short, this would be a good year to use no-till for small grain in the fall. Official yield will be calculated trom a measured plot, weighed and corrected for moisture. Measurement must be made by a county surveyor, county extension agent, Soil Conservation Service representative, Soil and Water Conservation District representative, Vo-Ag teacher, a licensed surveyor, ASCS representative or a person recommended by the county soybean extension agent. At least one member or designated representative of the County Soybean Contest Committee must be present at This fall is also the best time to plan for no-till next year. Soil test for lime and fertilizer needs, treat problem weeds after harvest, establish good cover crops of small grains and legumes and do additional conservation work like grassed waterways, terraces, diversions and stripcropping. No-till will not solve all erosion problems, but it is an effective tool in erosion control. Join in the no-till production contests and let's see how well Warren County can do with no-till.
