FIGHTIN' FOODS
Hello Homemakers! As a worker
in the home line of defuse, isn't it
your job to plan Nutri -thrift menufi,?
Of course, making plans is only half
the battle—if you abuse cooking prin-
ciples, you lose the fight.
"Fightin' Food" is baked to con-
serve vitamins and minerals without
changing flavour or appearance. Giv-
en good recipes, make sure your bak-
ing action is right. Here are some
tips to ensure success:
1. Make accuracy your password.
People who consistently turn out
good foods are not lucky, they are
accurate.
2. Good judgment is the next es-
sential. It's nice to have available
everything ydu want, but one seldom
has, and good' judgment will make
the best possible use of what you
have.
3. Certainty that a dish' is good
before it is served is a , line point
Tastes differ and we are saving on
sugar, so 'a nibble would satiety you
that everyone will be. happy. Appear-
ance is important—"eye-appeal' food
really helps keep up morale at the
table.

TAKE A TIP
1. Remind everyone in your house-
hold to use drugs sparingly;
screw tops on tightly; use each
bottle to the last drop; store in e
cool place; place seeds or herbs
in bottles and seal tightly.
2. Heat only as much water as you
are likely to require—to prevent
excessive heat in your kitchen and
to save electricity.
3. Do not wash fresh fruit if it is to
be stored in the refrigerator fm' a
few days; just pick it over and
store in a dish without a cover.

Need Better Finish
for Farm Products
If ever there was a time when more
care should be taken to pay special
attention to finishing farm animal
products properly and marketing
them 'at proper weights it is while
the war is on, Not only do poorly fin-
ished products, such as hogs, cattle,
sheep and poultry mean less profit to
•the producer but they also mean a
handicap to the war effort in several
directions. With the acute shortage
of labor poorly finished products
mean in the aggregate a sizeable
waste of effort. They also mean Waste
of space in trucks and cars, in receiv-
ing plants, in storage space and un-
necessary wear and tear on process-
ing machinery fhich not is practically
impossible to replace. The accumulat-
ed effort and space in the vehicles of
transportation taken up by the con-
siderable percentage of poorly finish-
ed products entering the market rep-
resents a substantial 'volume of waste
at a time when it is imperative to
save rubber, conserve labor, storage,
refrigeration and shipping space—
without reckoning the amount of pro-
fit lost to the producer,
Dr. G. S. H. Barton, Deputy Minis-
ter, Dominion Department of Agricul-
ture, Ottawa, says that a product
properly produced is already more
than half marketed, This troth is
particularly worth observing in these
days of emergency.
