--- out, made last (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eked

(Other definitions for eked that I've seen before include "Lengthened; supplemented" , "- - out: increased" , "Added to scantly" , "Made, a living say, laboriously" , "... out, made to last through frugality" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
