Meat Treat
“Domestic rabbit is on the Amer
ican menu for keeps,” say count
less Americans who first tasted
1 rabbit during the recent meat
shortage. “Domestic rabbit will re
1 main high in American food favor
not only because it is delicious to
eat, economical, and easy to pre
pare, but because it ranks high
among all meats in protein value,”
says Miss Elspeth Bennett, foods
authority in charge of the Nutri
tion Service of the Ralston Purina
Company.
“Fried rabbit is easy to prepare
and attractive to serve,” advises
Miss Bennett. “Dip pieces of a
two pound rabbit, cut for frying,
in a mixture made of one slightly
beaten egg, l Vb teaspoons of salt,
and ‘4 teaspoon of pepper. Roll
pieces in fine, dry bread crumbs.
Brown rabbit in *4 inch hot fat,
then reduce heat, cover, and cook
slowly 30 minutes, or until tender.
Garnish with parsley, and serve on
a bed of boiled rice with brown
gravy ”
Repatriates Jam
Among Ruins
! 11 Warsaw
WARSAW, Poland, (/P)—War
ruined Warsaw’s population has
increased 300,000 in the last four
months, and the steady tide of
humanity continues to sweep into
the capital.
The big influx of Polish repa
triates from Soviet Russia and
western European countries has
given government officials a dou
ble-barreled headache. They ex
plain they had trouble enough
trying to find shelter for the 400,
000 people already in Warsaw, but
now with 300,000 more, their job
of finding housing facilities bor
ders upon the impossible.
Warsaw’s pre-war population
was 1,300,000. Officials believe
that total again will be reached
within six months if the present
trend continues.
It is the government’s plan to
send most of the repatriates into
Poland’s new western territories
and thus give Warsaw a better
chance to rebuild while simulta
neously developing the lands ac
quired from Germany. In the
meantime, however, the govern
ment does have to try to find liv
ing space for the tens of thou
sands who have to stay in War
saw for weeks or months before
they move on. •
t
Population density in Japan is
j placed at 2,750 per square mile of
arable land.
