STAT dVIENT
about
In spite of the fact that in some Canadian cities butter supplies recently have not
been sufficient to meet the greatly increased demands, the situation does not
constitute an emergency: nor is it as serious as some people seem to think. There
are two main causes for these temporary and local shortages:
For the past year we have been consistently using
1O% to 15% more butter than in normal times—
with consequent disturbance to the distribution
of our butter supplies.
Many people have been buying more butter than
they currently need.
The limited nature of the :rresent shortage is shown by the fact that if every home
would reduce its consumption of butter by only one ounce per person per week (for
the average home this means a quarter of a pound a week)—or if we reduced our
national consumption to the peacetime rate—the shortage would soon disappear.
There is no Reason for Panic Buying
•
for housewives to rush out to beat their neigh -
re. Butter will not be rationed to meet the present
situation. Butter production is actually above
normal for this time of year. The Board itself is
taking special action which it is believed will
speedily restore normal supplies in retail stores.
These supplies will however be adequate for
normal consumption, if housewives in all parts
of Canada co-operate.
You can help in these ways:
Scrupulously avoid waste and
extravagance. Waste is wrong
at all times. In tune of war it
is sabotage.
Reduce present consumption
of butter by at least one ounce
per person per week—(for
the average home this means
a quarter of a pound a week.)
Do not buy more than is ,om
needed for immediate use.
It is unpatriotic and unnecessar
ry
bours to the nearest grocery sto
HOW TO SAVE BUTTER.
AT MEAL -TIME
1. Use butter only for spreading
on bread.
R. Never use butter just out of
the refrigerator. Wait until it .;
is soft enough to, spread easily.
3. Add a small amount of milk
when creaming butter for,
sandwiches.
IN COOKING "
1. Do not use butter in baking' •
and cooking, when lard, shor-
tening or meat dripping can
be used.
R, Use level measurements of
butter•.. , . Guesswork means
waste!
8. Men adding cheese to a
cream or white sauce, use
only half amount of butter
stated in recipe.
4. Use paper wrappings front but-
ter to grease baking dishes.
a. Do not use butter for re-
warming vegetables.
0. Serve meat gravy to avoid the
use of extra butter on potatoes.
7. When adding butter to vege-
table disltes, add it sparingly.
Do not melt it and then pour ..
on.
