Planning your work,
To save precious time,
Pays dividends,
Without costing a dime,
Yes, minutes saved can easily grow
into that extra hour or two a day so
many busy homemakers want and
need, just as saving a penny here
and there can grow into dollars. Here
are a few time-savers that the home
economists pf the consumer section,
Canada Department of Agriculture
hope will be of some help to you.
In the long run it pays to plan
meals for several days or up to a
week at a time. If you do this when
are hungry, say just before din-
the aroma of the meal cooking
your growing appetite will help
think quickly of all kinds of
delicious dishes. Keep a list handy
and as you plan a dinner or supper
jot down what you need to buy. This
will not only make shopping easier
but it will cut down the number of
trips to the store. Of course, having a
well stocked cupboard of canned
goods and an ample supply of frozen
food saves both time and effort when
unexpected guests drop in to see you.
Sometimes we need to pull out of
our bag of tricks a few shprt-cuts
which help to shorten both meal pre
paration and cleaning-up time, When
it comes to making a brown stew, in
stead of rolling the meat in flour and
then browning it on all sides in fat,
try browning the meat first and then
^sprinkling flour over it, a little at a
time, and continue to brown. A shaker
is handy to use for this.
No one likes a lumpy stew and a
fast an*d sure way to prevent this is
to.make a thin paste of all-purpose
flour and cold water using three times
as much water as flour and shake
them together very well in a covered
jar. Then pour the paste slowly into
the stew and stir until it thickens.
A simple way to get chicken ready
for frying is to put the flour and
seasonings in a clean paper bag or
plastic one, then drop in the pieces of
chicken and shake them vigorously
until well coated.
After grating soft cheese it is actu
ally quite difficult to clean the grater
but if you rub a hard crust of bread
'over it right after doing the cheese
the grater will come clean much fast
er when washed with a stiff brush.
When making coffee it is quicker
and easier to measure the water with
one motion. Put a mark on the pot
to show the correct amount of water
for your family and then fill the pot
each time to this mark rather than
guessing the amount of water or us
ing a cup to measure it.
And here is a new twist for melting
chocolate, Line the top of the double
boiler with enough aluminum foil or
Waxed paper to hold the chocolate,
This way it is so easy to crape off
every bit of melted chocolate and it
saves dish washing too,
When chopping vegetables, such as
celery, for salads, casseroles and
soups, instead of cutting each piece
sepanifitely it saves both time and
energy tq arrange quite a pile of
stalks lengthwise on the cutting
board. Then using a good sized knife
chop through all the stalks at once.
For a time-saving”"dessert try heat
ing applesauce and folding in a few
marshmallows cut in pieces, then
sprinkle with cinnamon or grated nut
meg and serve hot.
Here is a tip for those housewives
who work away from home or have
been out late shopping and want to
serve frozen fruit for dessert. It is a
real thawing short-cut but your pack
age must definitely be waterproof,
that is either a heavy waxed carton
or a tin can. Simply put the contain
er in a bowl under a slow stream of
cold running water. The frozen fruit
will take only three-quarters to one
hour to thaw this way compared to
six to eight hours in the main part of
the refrigerator. After the package
has been left thawing for some time
turn it gently to distribute the syrup
more evenly but be careful not to
shake it as you might spoil the shape
of the delicate fruit. It is best to
serve the fruit while there are still a
few ice crystals in it.
Iceland has no" railway.

DON’T FORGET IT’S ALMO ST TIME TO START YOUR
SPRING HOUSECLEANING
Industrial Picture
Brightening, Bank
Letter Maintains
December’s decline in employment
occurred with its seasonal regularity
but at a slower rate than in 1953.
However, due to the increase in the
labour force, unemployment figures
remained above those of 1953. The end
of the strike at the Ford Company
plants, along with some strengthening
of activity in durable good manufac
tures and in heavy manufacturing in
dustries, and work on the St. Law
rence Seaway project, have brighten
ed the industrial employment picture
somewhat in recent weeks, according
to the Canadian Bank of Commerce
Commercial Letter.
A surplus in international merchan
dise trade in December of. .$58 million,
the first substantial surplus in any
one month since 1952, has helped to
reduce the deficit balance for the
year to $148 million, compared with
one of $210 million in the year before.
The construction industry got off
to a good start for 1955 and promises
to continue as a source of strength
for the economy. Contracts spurted
ahead in January with an increase in
value 6t 54 per cent over a year ago.

WINGHAM
CENTRE PLANNED
FOR STRATFORD
Establishment of a community cen
tre was approved in principle last
week by Stratford Recreation Assoc
iation.
A proposed building has been dis
cussed by various bodies including
pity Council during the past few
Weeks but no progressive action
resulted until last night’s meeting.
Last week council saw a proposed
sketch of a $10,060 building which
could be used as a combined com
munity centre and market place. It
was suggested then the building might
be erected oh a munlcpal parking lot
near the centre of Stratford. Council
referred the matter to a sub-commit
tec which is studying the condition of
the present market building.
