Swaziland's 65-year old Paramount Chief Sobhuza II must manage a large royal clan as elections near. With an estimated fifty wives and hundreds of descendants, he weighs how to secure votes while opposing Britain's proposed constitution that would recognize Elizabeth II as sovereign and curtail royal power.

Weekly Food Market Guide By Lucy F Shelve Cooperative Extension Service
Eggs remain a budget stretcher and high quality protein source. A dozen eggs at 50 cents costs about eight cents per two eggs, pairing well with vegetables, meats, or as a dessert sauce. Dairy items like milk cheese and ice cream are good values to accompany eggs. Spring lamb cuts, beef roasts, and smoked meats offer options for weekend meals. Market offerings include asparagus from California, broccoli carrots cabbage greens and cucumbers. Early Florida melons and Mexican cantaloupes and honeydews arrive, while Florida juice oranges and grapefruit rise in price. Banana prices up due to growing-area conditions. Local CA apples available. Warmer fishing weather boosts supplies at port. Check local markets for fresh arrivals and include fish in meals.
