Eat Alone and Enjoy It The person who lives alone and cooks for one is often guilty of skipping a meal because it seems too much trouble to bother with such small amounts. Shopping for, cooking and eating well chosen meals should; be an enjoyable ex- perience. xperience There are many varie- ties of foods for main dishes that can be made into epicurean de- lights with very little trouble. Try experiments with herbs and new ways of fixing up nourishing dish- es. it's fun to eat alone when the meals are well chosen, well cook- ed and attractively served. Guard Against Vagrant Germs Everyone should have regular chest X-ray examinations to pre' vent tuberculosis from establishing itself. Most people during the day's activities, come in contact with TB germs but, fortunately for the world, the majority are able, to re- sist the disease. By having an X- ray check-up regularly, it is pos- sible to discover the disease in its very earliest stages when it is most easily cured. Tanning the Hide The coat of tan that mbst vaca- tionists •brim back as a trophy, need not have painful memories if the process is started well 'before the 'holiday by exposing the skin to direct sunshine for a short time every day before vacation •time. Ten or fifteen minutes daily will help the skin to become accustom- ed gradually to the strang rays of the sun. By the time the days of swimming andlying around on the beach come to •pass, the skin will be able to stand Old •Sol's tinting process without the agony of a bad sunburn.

As luscious, colorful fruits ripen we hasten to capture their flavor in an attrac- tive concentrated preserve, either as jam, jelly or conserve. It is only a matter of having wonderful com- ments of a home-made product and You'll repeat the same recipe with special again. Take a Tip 1. It is the pectin that makes good jellying properties and is in good quantity in the peelings and cores of slightly underripe fruit. But cooking the fruit juice for pro- longed periods tends to destroy the pectin; hence, in preparing the juice, cook the fruit at simmering point. Do not boil. 2. Since the amount of acid helps to extract the pectin, it is wise not to add too much water for cooking the fruit. 3. Sugar is added to fruit juice to improve the flavor and the amount of finished product- Too much sug- ar gives a weak jelly and too little a tough one. 4. Fruits with good jelly proper- ties are: Crabapples, currants, gooseberries, grapes, sour plums, blueberries, quinces and raspber- ries—although th e last taut may be low in acid. 5. It is advisable to use a com- mercial pectin 'with fruits such as strawberries, elderberries, peaches and pears, unless you have a reli- able recipe using a combination of fruits. 6. Foor good flavor and color add one cup ripe fruit with two cups underripe. 7. To prepare fruit: Wash and remove stems and blemishes. Do not peel or core. 8. If fruit is low in acid, add lem- on juice to raw fruit. (To each quart of raw, mashed or cut fruit, add x/2 cup lemon juice). 9. To extract juice: (a) Add one cup water to one quart mashed raspberries, blueberries or grapes. (b) Add 2 cups water to 1 quart mashed currants, gooseberries or plums. (c) Add 4 cupswater to 1 quart apples. Heat slowly to simmering point and cook until very soft. 10. Drain fruit through a piece of wet factory cotton or two pieces of cheesecloth. Unless the jelly is for exhibition purposes, squeeze the bag gently with two wooden spoons. 11.

To make the sugar test: Pour one spoonful of fruit juice into a smal•I dish, measure an equal amount of rubbing alcohol. Pour it gently into a dish and do not stir. Let stand two or three minutes'and notice the appearance as to the jelly consistency. Remember rub- bing alcohol is poisonous—do not taste it. If there is a firm jelly mass allow one cup sugar for each cup of juice. If there are a few lumps .of jelly add % cup sugar to each cup and if the product is stringy ,use only 3s cup sugar for each cup of juice. .13.

The work can be done easier, quicker, better, and at less cost the machine way— and there is less worry and less ex- pense when you use machine help instead of inexperienced and costly labor. No man who has experienced the many advantages of operating with modern equipment would want to go back to the days of . "muscle -farming." Some of the greatest advances in mechanization in the history of agriculture have been made in recent 'rears.
