high school Tuesday. Miss A»na| Paul Ranier, nutrition specialist ofj Purdue university, demonstrated the six ways of cooking meat i rows'Big. broiling, pan broiling, used for tender cuts of meat, and braising, stewing, and simmering in water for less tender cuts of meat. High points of Miss Ranier's demonstration were that “it is important to cook meat at a low temperature. 300-325, because meat is more tender, cuts are juicier and more flavorful, meat is more uniformly cooked, less shrinkage and therefore more meat to serve Less fuel is required to cook at a low, temperature, even though the cook Ing time is longer, less work Is in-] voiced In watching and cleaning. I less spattering and burning of fat | on the pans, racks and ovens." Two leaders from each club will attend the summor agriculture con-| ference at Purdue university from August 3 to 5.

Hoosiers Warned Os Check Forgers Warning Is Given By State Police Indianapolis. July 14 (UP) Even the check (orgers are feeling (he effects of Inflation In their "business." according to a state police warning issued today. Col. Robert Rossow, siijM-rin-tendent of state police, warned that the "take" by bogus check writers has increased along with the nation's salaries and prices. This year, he said. Hoosier merchants may be defrauded of an estimated |125,000,0<>0 in bad checks an increase of 25 percent over the 1947 mark. Rossow warned Indiana retailers to be on the alert for 9rofeaslonal forgers who appear in the state periodically. He cited the example of one check artist, still at large, who has passed more than 1.000 bad chec ks in the state since 1941. The checks’of “Mr. X" also make periodic bounces In Ohio and Illinois. Rossow said. One way merchants can help cut the wages of sin of the check artist Is by "exercising caution in dealing with suspicious customers," said the state police chief. He cited the merchants' association of Huntington for Its cooperation with police in tracking down

check passers. There, he said, retailers follow up arrests by signing affidavits against offenders "Making restitution Is no reason for failure to prosecute offenders,” Rossow said "Merchants must become 'check conscious,' and demand positive identification from the writer of every check presented."
