The weatherman cooperated for the pick-up Friday morning but a bit confusing was the gai-bage collection the same morning on the east side of town, however no garbage arrived at the Legion Hall for sale. What rummage went with the garbage no one knows. Eager customers were bom- barding the door previous to the opening at 6:30 Friday night and kept coming steadily all evening and Saturday afternoon. A number of articles were unsold and were given to the Salvation Army, London and to local organizations which could use them. Recipe Box As one of the conveners was preparing to leave for home after the sale was over she missed a flannelette sheet which she had brought to barricade the door before the sale began. One of the workers informed her she had thought it was for sale and had sent it to the drapery department where it was sold.

Co-conveners were Mrs. Charles Smith and Mrs. Ross Skinner with Mrs. W. Huntley, Mrs. Mervyn Cudmore, Mrs. Wellington Brock, Mrs. M. Gans, Mrs. L. Wein and Miss Ruth Skinner assisting.

At this time of year, most shopping carts carry a bag of family favorites to the check-out counter. On9 variety, the McIntosh, seems to thrive in all the large arch ds areas of Canada while othe kinds are associated with m or specific provinces. British Colu ibia has its Delicious, Spartan and Winesap. Ontario is prouclof its Northern Spy as well as Delicious, Quebec has Cor- tland, Lobo and Snow. Nova Scotia's most popular varieties are Golden Delicious, Graven- stein and Spy. Among the good all-purpose apples are McIntosh, Cortland and Spy. Apples are sold mostly in 3, 5 or 10 pound plastic bags but are also available in baskets, boxes or cartons. The container must be marked with the name and ad- dress of the packer or shipper, grade, variety and size of apples. Apples repacked for retail sale are subject to provincial legislation, which varies by provinces. "Canada Fancy" is the grade commonly available but "Canada Cee" grade is satisfactory for cooking, where shape, size and color are not so important. Most families buy fresh apples every week or two because they have limited storage space. Apples are usually good keepers, and will retain their crispness when stored in the refrigerator either in perforated plastic bags or in the crisper. Baskets of apples should be stored in a cool room of 32 degrees to 40 degrees, and covered with perforated plastic. The following useful in- formation is provided by the home economists at Canada Agriculture, Ottawa: 1 bushel weighs about 45 pounds; 1 Handi-Pack box holds about 20 pounds; 6-quart basket holds about 7 pounds; 4-quart basket holds about 5 pounds; 3-pound package contains about 9 medium apples; 1 pound equals about 3 medium apples. With a good supply of apples on local markets this year, con- sumers may appreciate a reminder that meals can be built around this popular fruit, Apples may be cooked for sauce, or glazed and used with poultry or pork in the main course; baked in cobblers, pies, cakes and past- ries; or used raw in salads. If your family favors baked apples why not treat them to some interesting fillings now and in the months to come.
