lool; aat
The third meeting of
the Clinton II.I 4-R Club
was held on Oct. 8th at the
borne of Mrs; Murch.
Each member an-'
swered the roll call which
was, "Report on the home
activity for meeting
two."
The subject of the
meeting this .. week was
"co-oking under
pressure" and "the safe
use of the pressure
cooker." One thing to
remember when using a
pressure cooker is not to
cook foods which foam,
e.g. applesauce, cran-
beries or pastas, because
the foam may clog the
vent pipe.
T W mise discussed the
-H'ers
Qfl(er$
convenient slow cooker.
Foods cooked in a slow
cooker do not need
constant attention and.
may be left to cook all
day.
Groups 1 and 2
demonstrated how to
make cabbage rolls and
each girl in theclub had a
chance to practise rolling .
the cabbage into ' neat
rolls. We cooked them in
a slow cooker. They were
delicious!
The girls were asked to
make chicken Cacciatore
at home for their family
to try.
The Clinton If I 4-H club
Crepes 'Suzettes, met .on
October 15, at Mrs,
Saundercock's home. The
meeting started' with the
roll call, which was
"report on making
chicken cacciatore" and
"what methods other
members used,"
Then Mrs, Saundercock
discussed crepes are
great. Then we
proceeded to the kitchen,
where we made crepes
and .put them into the
oven to cook. We then
went back into the
14 n-g-reo-rn ----an-d.—Mrs.
Murch discussed
energuide on
refrigerators and "take
your choice" review.
Then we went back to
the kitchen to eat our
crepes. The next meeting
will be held on Oct. 22 at

DRAFT DEFENSE
A 1/4 inch crack along the
bottom of a door can leak
as much warmth as a hole
in your wall the size of
a baseball!
Caulking and weather-
stripping to plug heat
leaks are the besteel enses
going -because these
measures save your - '
valuable energy/
' �
money) from heating the
great Canadian outdoors. You
can find out more in "Draft Defense';
one of a series of brochures we've
published to help you save energy.
While you're checking out those
gaps in your draft defense, you
might want to take a close look at
how your home's insulation
measures up for winter.

Regular maintenance and some
-,( very simple steps are all you
need to make your furnace
more energy
efficient. Have
your furnace
checked and
serviced once
a year. Set the
thermostat
back a few
degrees. Check
your air filter
once a month
and replace as
needed. Make '
sure heat
registers aren't
blocked by drapes or furniture -
use deflectors when registers are
. under drapes. If you use electric
heat, vacuum your baseboard
heaters regularly.
There are a lot more helpful
furnace tips you can find out about.
But now, there are just a few words
to be said about keeping yourself
in hot water.
There's no two
ways
about it -
when it
comes to
saving energy
and money
in your.
home,
there's nothing
like properly installed insulation.
Check out the "R" factor of your
home's present insulation, and
proceed from there. You may even
qualify for a CHIP grant that will
help you carry the cost of insulating.
As you size up your home's
insulation, don't forget to look at
your furnace with an eye to making
it more frugal with energy.

That steady "drip -drip" from

annoying. One drip per
second can send 175 gallons
of your hot water a year
down the drain.

Fixing that drip- .
ping tap is usually

the tank and the
