Many a 4,homemaker • has
dreamed of the day when she
will own a freezer with all the
advantages her freezer -owning
friends extoll. .No more last
minute ` emergencies; no' more
humdrum meals; fruit,
vegetables, fist( and game long
past the season; buy in 1cage
quantities and make fewer trips
to the store; save time and
money. All these hopes. can
come true if you are willing to
•work at getting the most out of
your freezer„But don't count on
saving. a great deal of, money on

conveniece.
You should be prepared for
the cost of operation, Proper
moisture4aporproof packaging
and' containers are a "must".
The air, in the freezer is dry: If it
penetrates the food, it can rob it
of flavor., moisture and color.
Electricity, servicing _and
depreciation are also "red 'ink"
items.
The size of your. family, your
shopping tidbits and the type of
foods you will want to freeze
should govern the size and type
of freezer you buy. A rough
estimate of capacity required per
person is three to four cubic feet
for city dweller's='urrd five to six
cubic feet for rural families.
Remember, when the freezer
size is given in pounds,.divide by
35 to convert. to .approximate
cubic foot capacity.
Before choosing your freezer,
know where you will. place it.
Take into account the doors,
stairs and•areas it will have to be
carried 'through to reach-Ahe
storage spot. '$e' sure the floor
area' is' stron,g enough — a' fully
stocked freezer rcan weigh aS
much as half a ton. The freezer
motor needs' a dry place 'with a
temperature of at least , 40
degrees F. for ideal conditions.
Unheated basements and garages
are not recommended.
One decision you will have, to
Make- is whether .an upright or
chest type will best suit your
purposes. : Uprights take less
floor space and give easier access
to the food;. there is better
even -6711d distribution but ..you
wilt- lose - morecold while the
doer is open. Chest models, are
cheaper .to buy, and are better "
for storing bulky and
odd -shaped foods like poultry
and roasts.
s With' the— exception of the .
more -. expensive frost -free
'uprights, freezers need -
defrosting 'once -ortwice a- year. •
This "means removing all ' food
and insulating it in newspapers
under a blanket until the ice in
the' freezer melt -s. ---Look' for a'
drain at the bottom to allowrthe•---
melted ice, to, drain off,
otherwise you will just have to
"sop up" the water. An electric
fan played on the frosting will
Zip it off in jig -time.
You may find some freezers
with interior -linings -that overlap
and with sharp corners that can
make cleaning, 'difficult. Look
for 'a smooth interior. Most
liners are made of porcelain
enamel but you will find some
aluminum, steel " or plastic
linings. If the lining, is plastic be
sure the corners are sufficiently
retnforcedlo prevent cracking if
anything, is dropped: n.
Moat freezers have thin walls
because of the iptroduvtii?n of
foam' polyurethane insulation.
Ask about insulation material,.
Another important
consideration is to be sure the
inner and outer walls are
well -sealed so that moisture
cannot penetrate.
