But what may appear cheap and good may peeve to bee -vet y expensive if sickness .be the result. Because of the absence of bone and skin, fillets are easy to prepare: for the table. It is not very difficule to dell if a whole fish is fresh, but'when cut into fillets it becomes much Bard- er. Fillets ere 'frequently cut fi•cjm fish that have been dead from ten' to fourteen days, that ise from fish left over when all shipping orders haa''e been filled,. These fillets are then soaked in annato'for a long time to take away the bad smell, which gives that, yellow color which is supposed to be due to "smoke." 1.'o tell the difference between • a fresh and stale fillet of fish is very simple. Fillets from fresh fish •may sometimes- appear "sweaty," that is, moist on the surface. They are, however, always firm to the touch, are not easy to break, and will leave the fingers • clean. Those' taken from stale fish, on the contrary, are always soft, easy' to break, and when handled will. leave, the fingers sticky.' Take a entail piece between the finger a9c1 thumb and if it leaves a sticky 'feel- ing, ; that „fish is not goad. Then, if' there is the least sign of 'a green I colored streak, it is a sure sign that the fish was either stale when cut into fillets or had since'been kept' toe long.

On account, of the lunar ,shortage, certainly 110 'excess of .sugar should be used in jellies, If these are made, .the - following 'proportions will be ,found successful; For one cup of currant juice, use One cup of sager. For one cup of green grape juice, one cup of sugar. For one cup red raspberry juice, use three fourths cup of. `sugar. For one :up of blackberry juice, use three-fourths cup of sugar. For one'cup of sour apple juice, use three-fourths cup of sugar. For one cup of crabapple juice, use three-fourths cup of sugar.' Too much sugar. gives too soft a jelly: Too little sugar gives a tough: jelly. No amount of boiling will cor rect a failure due to wrong propor- tions of sugar. If (the jely fails to j. set, more juice, 'which will add more. pectin, may be ad(' 1 and'a .second; cooking may correct the mistake. This, however,•wi11 not be as satisfactory a jelly as it would have been if correct-,; ly proportioned the first. time. The sugar is added hot to the juice after it has been`. boiling a few min- utes. It is added hot so as not to cool down' the temperature and thus prolong' the cooking, and it is added after the boiling has continued for a few minutes, in order not to waste the sugar by frequent skimmings or by the chemical change resulting from long boiling with acid.

(To be -continued.) ..-Fwd Control Corner Conservatior Measures. .Among the measures already taken by the Canada Food Board to make availa.bie larger supplies of- essential foodstuffs ,for the Allies',' are the fol- lowing: • • " Waste of food has been made an offence, subject to heavy penalties, and municipalities have been given wide powers in checking such waste. Bakery products -have been stand- ardized and the amount of essential ingredients Pias been Iimited so as to prevent extravagant use. Manufacture of certain products in- volving• an,excessive use of sugar or fats has ;been prohibited. , A very great saving of wheat; "has i been elected' by Iicensing and regula- tion of the trade in package cereals, dealers being required to substitute a 1 considerable portion of other cereals i for wheat in the manufactureof their products. Flour has been .standardized and the milling extraction of wheat • has been increased twice, Canada is now using' 76 per cent. of the wheat berry in its standard flour. In cases where it hasbeen found that dealers have been holding execs - sive quantities of food commodities required Oversea, the Food Board has required the pale of such excess.` Public eating -places have been re- gulated in regard to the use of cer- tain essential foods. The resultant saving of meat, wheat, and dairy '. products for shipment Oversea has been "large, Hoarding of sugar or flour has been made, an offence'subject to heavy fine I or imprisonment. The amounts which may be held ineprivatc house- holds or by dealers have been limited,, so asl to ensure equitable distribution and, in the case of flour; to provide as large shipments as possible for Oversee. Control over importation and ex- portation of foodstuff's is exercised in the interests of the people of Canada and the Allied Nations and has proved a valuable' instrument in obtaining. trade concessions and,in reserving for, Great Britain and her Allies products which • otherwise would have gone to neutrals or even to hostile countries. Waste of food through preventable detention of ears has been checked and' -reduced to a minimum: Use in part of substitutes for wheat flour by bakers, confectioners and public eating -places has been requir- ed. Arrangements have been made' for an abundant supply, for Eastern, Central and Western Canada, of fish at reasonable prices, es a substitute for meat and other foods.
