Merely passing the word to friends won't find you a buyer, let alone get you the RIGHT PRICE. BUT ... .' ADVERTISE IT IN THE THE WINGHAIN1 ADVANCE-TIMES 0 0 1101 Thursday, Fehroary 14, 1946 Hello, Homemakers! What consti- tutes true economy in buying foods? is it simply a matter of looking for bargain price tags on everything, Is it taking the tired head of lettuce, the 'ilted celery in order to save the dif- ference in cost between them and prime produce? Of course, it isn't! You can afford good,quality if you're wise and eat more of what you pay for. Mut those plump,golden oranges, and -that three-rib roast, but use every last bit of them. Orange peel makes a 'good sweet pickle and a beef bone is 'the soul of a soup! It is all in knowing how. You have to know how to salvage the vitamin value that lies in the outside lettuce leaves. You should know how to cap- italize on the flavour hiding in the cel- ery tops that the less skilful cook throws out. And you need good recip- es like these: SWEET PICKLED ORANGE PEEL ,Cut in pieces 11/2 lbs. orange. peel; cover with water. Cook .15 minutes; drain. Boil together 3 cups sugar, 2 cups vinegar and 2 tbsps. whole pick- ling spices for 5 minutes. Add peel; cook, stirring occasionally, hours, ,Makes 3 pints. BEEF BONE SOUP Cover leftover roast beef bones and scraps with water, Cover; ,simmer hour; remove hones. Add i. cup diced carrot, icup. chopped onion, salt, pep, per. Cover, Simmer 45 minutes. Add 1i cups cooked or canned tomatoes.;, heat. Garnish with lemon, Serves 4, GREEN LEAF SALAD Wash outside lettuce leaves, place in saucepan, Add boiling water to 113. depth of leaves. Cover, cook 10 min, utes, Drain, Chill. Chop; add French dressing, Pack into oiled individual moulds;-chill. Unruould; garnish with. hard cooked eggs .and watercress. CREAMED PEAS WITH CELERY TOPS Melt 3 tbsps. butter; add cup flour; Gradually add 2 cups milk; cook over hot water, stirring, until thick. Add 2 cups cooked or canned peas, 112 cup chopped celery leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with toast points. Serves 4 to 6. * * * TAKE A TIP 1. Tea is orange pekoe, probably to you. Did you know that you should say peck-o, not peek-o, and that the word is an index of size of the tea leaves, not of flavour. 2, Oranges are usually navel (nayvel) oranges at this time of year. They are easily segmented and easily ser- ved whole instead of juiced. They are best for marmalade, too. The Valencias we buy during the summer are more* juicy. 3. The lemons on our market dry out easily. If there is no room in the refrigerator or no refrigerator, keep lemons in cold water. It's an old- fashioned stunt that 'also refreshes those that are getting dry and hard. * * * THE SUGGESTION BOX Mrs, N. C. says; Dish towels, hung straight after washing and then dried, are more absorbent if they are not ironed. Mr. N. J. says: Old corks will pro- tect the points of scissors, ice picks. etc. Mrs. G. E. suggests: Baked Spare- Ribs- 3 to 4 lbs. spareribs, 112 lb. prunes, salt, pepper and flour. Select two sections of spareribs. Soak prunes in cold water overnight, or for several hours, and drain, Put the sections of spareribs together with the prunes between and tie to hold in place, Season the meat with salt and pepper and rub with flour. Place it on a rack in an open roasting pan and sear in a hot oven, 450 F., until lightly browned. Reduce the heat to moder- ate (325 F.) and continue cocking for about an hour longer of until the meat is tender. Baste occasionally with the drippings in the pan.

RATION COUPON INFORMATION Coupons now valid are buttcr 116 to 138 and R1, meat 1 to 24, and sugar coupons 46 to 69. Sugar coupons are now valid for the purchase cf preser- ves. Sugar Prices While sugar prices in the 'United States will be increased one half cent per pound to meet the increased cost of imported raw sugar there is no inten- tion of authorizing any increase in the price of sugar in Canada, according to an announcement by S. R, Noble, sugar administrator for the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. The increased cost to Canada for raw sugar will be ab- sorbed out of the Sugar Stablization Fund built tip over the past number of years. • Lower insurance and ocean freight in 1946 may partially offset the increase raw sugar' costs so that the net loss on raw sugar at present will be. about 30 cents per hundred pound., Increas- es in returns to Canadian sugar beet growers will be granted without in- creasing the price of sugar to consum- ers, Increased assistance on beet sugar will amount to 60 cents per hundred pounds the entire amount going to the growers, to increase the returns on sugar beets by about $1.50 per ton.

The balance automatically comes from Cuba whose crop is, purchased by the U.S.A. and allocated to the Com- bined Food Board. Q.—Is it possible for Canada to obtain more sugar? A.—No. Neither Canada nor any other country can buy as much as it might wish to obtain. The world's supply is allocated by the Combined Food Board equitably among the claimant countries.

Q.—The ,restaurant where I have been eating since the outbreak of the war has stopped serving butter with the noonday Meal. Is it allowed to do so? A.—Restatirants are quota users.
