With this in mind home economists have selected three recipes from their nets booklet featuring canned vegetables, "The Sausage and Corn Cas- serole" lends itself to advance preparation.

On two dif- ferent occasions, two different repairmen sent him the .same report about telephone difficulties near Chippawa, Ontario-. Both reports stated, "drop wire Chewed by llama". While one might be inclined to write the whole thing off as a publicity stunt to boost the Niagara peninsula as Canada's banana belt, the reports turned out to be legitimate, Llamas are kept at the Marine Wonderland and Game Farm at Chippawa and one of them decided to test his teeth on our drop wires.

Do- canned vegetables need to be cooked? A. No, vegetables canned com- mercially are thoroughly cook- ed and may be used just as they come from the can. Q. Is it safe to store leftover vegetables in 'the can? A. Yes, it is just as safe to keep 'canned food in the can it comes in — if the can is kept refrigerated and covered — as it is to empty the food into an- other container. Use them in a day or so because of the increas- ed nutrient loss once the vege- table is exposed to the air. Stock Taking Time For Your Freezer Most owners of freezers label and date the contents of their freezer.packages and keep up- toklate inventory. Now is the time to ,cheek your freezer and see what should be used. with- in the next few weeks because it should be defrosted, cleaned and organized for another sea- son's crop of fresh fruits and vegetables. Build your menus around those foods which should be used now as the quality will begin to deteriorate if kept more than one year. They tend to lose in flavor and texture. Stocks of such frozen foods as rhubarb, peas and asparagus should be used up to make room for the 1969' crop. To assist you in using those last packages of rhubarb, home economists offer recipes for two family favorites, "Rhubarb Sauce" and "Rhubarb 'Pie". Cook the rhubarb while it is still frozen. The sauce is re- freshing by itself or it may be served over puddings or a plain cake, If you remember to label the packages as to the number of cups of rhubarb in each, yoh can proceed just as if the-rhu- barb were fresh cut, For a flav- or change, you can make your own rhubarb-strawberry sauce by adding some frozen 'straw- berries to the rhubarb at the end of the cooking period Sweet -- en to taste.
