'CROWN INDIANA MAN CORN KING Jeffersonville Farmer Wins World’s Corn Title Union stockyards, Chicago Dec. 4 (UP)—A bronze young Jeffersonville, Ind., farmer, William CanLentz, was the new corn king of the world today, holding one of the most sought-after honors available 1 at the International Livestock exposition. He won over approximately 1,300 entries, judges reported. His entry | was of the Johns-on county white I dent variety. Ralph 9. Curry of Tipton, Ind., was named reserve grand champion in the final Judging yesterday, while the junior title went to Eugene Barr sevenths grade student in the Tipton Grammar school. Lowell Harding of Knightstown, Indiana was the Junior champion. Farming nearly 400 acres in Clark county, Indiana Lentz said he had 45 acres In corn this year, most of it raised with an eye to show pur-j poses. It was his first prize winning entry in the international show., He held the Indiana crown in 1929, j however. Smooth-shaven, 34-year-old, Lentz said ho follows a rigid program of crop rotation and leaves almost two-third-j of his acreage in pasture each year. Besides raising corn and small grains, he also maintains a herd of dairy and .beef cattle, a few . sheep and -conducts what he descrlb-, ed as a "small” dairy. President of the Indiana corn! growers association in 1934, he is j not a university or agricultural' school graduate but has attended at least 12 short courses offered by I Purdue ulvenelty. He is an ardent! believer in scientific farming and in the government's farm program. o RECORD CROWDS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE — king at the International Livestock Exposition to*ay, but to hundreds of housewives who saw him leave the show ring he was just another chop bound for the family din-1 ner table. And the packers who once bragged that they used all of the pig but the sq’ueal, will have little on , the 1935 housewife. Exhibits prepared by the national livestock and meat board, offsetting the gain in retail meat prices, go Into detail this year on the cheaper cuts of mSHt. I The cheaper cuts are. the board claimed, -fully as nutritious and tasty as tue more expensive pieces. Cooking methods may make up the difference in savor. Slow cooking was advocated for j roasts to conserve the meat juices 1 , and to prevent loss of weight. The . I old practice of basting roasts is out of date, and rffasts now are cooked fat-side up. A specially designed thermometI er, perfected after a number of years flf research, allows the meat to be cooked exactly as desired, ranging from rare to well done, preventing further loss of weight and preserving taste and body. | Comparative price schedules re--1 leased by the U. S. department of agriculture showed that pork chops, among the more common i meal cuts, retailed a year ago at between 35 and 45 cents per pound as compared to 50 and 60 cents ; per pound Dec. 1 of this year. I Similarly, roundsteaks retailed at between 34 and 40 cents a pound
