As ,a teenager during the
1930's, I remember we would boil
our clothes in a cast-iron wash
pot, rub them on a rub board,
and use blueing in our rinse
water, of course, they were
always hung on an outside line
to dry. After they Were dry,
the clothes would smell so sweet
and fresh. Ironing was done with
flat irons, heated on a wood-
burning stove.
Most of our food was raised
at home. We had big gardens
and always canned several hun-
dred quarts of fruits and vege-
tables each year. There was no
such thing as buying canned food
at the grocery, store. Mother
always put up peaches and black-
berries in half-gallon jars and
made huge cobblers in the winter.
Cobblers and cakes were our
man desserts. A fine layer
cake would usually disappear at
One meal.
I remember whenever a
neighbor was sick, the neighbor-
hood was concerned and everyone
helped in someway, Even sitting
up all night with them, if there
was a heed. People helped each
other back then without any
thought of pay.

Damage to farm-stored grain
is substantial each year because
of shrinkage, loss in food value,
low seed germination, spoilage
and contamination caused by
insect infestations. The only
way to stop these losses, is for
each farm operator to implement
good housekeeping practices. It's
important that these begin before
placing newly-harvested grain in .
storage, emphasizes Karl
13ereza, an extension entomolo-
gist with the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food.
Bins must be thoroughly
cleaned out, making sure that
there is no grain accumulated
in corners, cracks, behind par-
titions, between double walls,
outside and under bins, or in
grain-handling equipment. The
sweepings should be burned or
buried. Otherwise, the insects
that might be Present could return
to infest the newly binned grain.
Storage facilities Should be
repaired if necessary, to exclude
rodents, birds, and moisture.
After grain bins are thoroughly
cleaned and repaired, they can
be sprayed with a protective in-
secticide to kill insects that were
not removed with the sweepings.
Close proximity of grain bins
to feed rooms used for storage
and grinding often presents a
problem, because feed facilities
are difficult to keep clean. They
usually harbor insects that can
easily migrate to the grain bin.
Leave space between feed rooms
and storage bins, suggests Mr.
Bereza.
Grain should not be stored
in buildings that shelter animals
or hay. Mangers, feed 'boxes,
and troughs are sometimes in-
sect-infested. In addition, the
heat from animals and the
insulation provided by hay
prevents seasonal cooling, thus
allowing insects to remain active
throughout the winter.
Grain going into storage
shOuld not exceed 14% moisture,
since molds as well as -insects
will thrive in a' warm, moist
environment.

Have you ever wondered why
vegetables cooked by the Chinese
have such a marvellous texture
and excellent flavor and color?
These characteristics can be at-
tributed to their method of cook-
ing vegetables - 'stir-frying'.
We have borrowed this, method
and call it 'panning'.. What a
lovely way it is to prepare the
many fresh Canadian summer
vegetables on the market now!
Panning is a simple way of
cooking vegetables on top of the
stove. Rapid cooking preserves
their natural color, flavor and
optimum food value. They are
especially attractive when in-
