KELLER The children went back to school this week and even though mother may have thought she wanted to get them out of her hair all day every day, most women have to admit they are just a trifle lonely until the period of adjustment is over. I haven't got any magic cure for loneliness — except to keep busy. That's why I begin my fall cleaning shortly after the start of school. I don't do everything one normally does at cleaning time because it is perhaps just a little early for some chores. One thing I do get done is to clear away the summer clutter which has collected in the bedrooms of younger members of the family. You know what I mean. The stones from the river; that old broken pair of sunglasses found on the beach; the single sandal (the other one was lost at the pool); those old theatre programs; and the like. While I'm at it I clean out drawers, discarding all the too small, too raggedy summer things. I pack away the bathing suits and the beach towels . .. in a bag that is easy to reach just in rasa a nice September day makes a trip to the beach seem worthwhile. I go through the closets. checking to see what goes to the cleaners, what car be put in the fall rummage sale, what should be thrown out, what must be purchased. I also like to check those first cold day items. Jackets should be clean with all buttons sewn on. Rubber boots should be in pairs so there •isn't a wild scramble the fir* cold wet morning this fall. * Another thing I like to get done about now is to fill the freezer with baked goods. Cookies for after school snacks, cakes and squares for lunch boxes, and even some .seroles for quick lunches and miners when .'.e family is in a burry and on .4ht schedule. One of thy ,ery nicest things f o frP.c, - and serve later is quick bread, the not too sweet loaves that taste a little like cake but resemble bread. They make a nutritious treat for breakfast, they're popular at a tuck-in for lunch or they are pleasing as an out-of-hand snack. (When baked in 6-ounce fruit juice cans they make dainty ized slices for an afternoon tea.) To produce a tender, good eating bread follow the rules for quick breads: — Use all-purpose flour and sift before measuring. — Add the liquids to the dry ingredients in a few swift strokes. — Keep the mixing to an absolute minimum — merely to moisten the flour. Over mixing causes a tough product. BANANA NUT LOAF 11 2 cups sifted flour 2 tsp, baking powder 111 DRUG STORE UNTLEY Smoked Picnics Spore Ribs 694 Pork Chops BUTT or Roast Tang 4 PKGE.

The questions are usually posed by housewives and the expert answers are given by a food specialist from the food council of the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. QUESTION: What is the difference, if any between hamburg and ground beef, and how much fat is allowed in hamburg? ANSWER: According to Food and Drug regulations, minced or ground beef shall not contain more than 30% fat. No legal distinction is made between the terms "hamburg", "ground beef" or "ground chuck". These products may all contain no more than 30% fat. On the other hand any product sold as "lean ground beef" shall contain no more than 15% fat. QUESTION: I purchased a chicken and after preparing it for dinner, I found we couldn't eat it. It tasted like fish, can you explain? ANSWER: The fishy odor of some chickens is associated with the chicken feed. The problem stems from rape seed oil which has gone rancid or is improperly processed, and chicken feed is manufactured using this oil. The Poultry Products Division of Canada Department of Agriculture is greatly concerned about this problem. They request that if you should find another chicken of this type, please send the metal breast tag, or the chicken bag (carrying the supplier's name and address) to: Mr. F. W. Wickham, Poultry Division, Canada Department of Agriculture, 160 Springhurst Ave., Rm. 301, Toronto 3, Ontario. Mr. Wickham assured us that investigations have proven that these chickens are not toxic but simply have an objectionable Odor. QUESTION: Why the high price of milk in the 3-quart jug — Example - Sault Ste. Marie - S1.00; Midland - 78c? ANSWER: (a) The retail price of milk is not controlled. (b) The producer price of milk in Sault Ste. Marie is S7.22 per cwt. while in the Midland area it is $6.65 per cwt. a difference of 57e per cwt. (c) The cost of producing milk is higher in Northern Ontario than it is in Southern Ontario. The same answer applies to the question of why milk in Northern Ontario is higher than in Toronto-Hamilton area. QUESTION: Is there loss in nutritive value of fresh produce during transportation time from grower to consumer? ANSWER: Modern harvesting, packaging and transporting methods hasten fresh produce to the consumer with minimal idst of nutritive value. It is the holding time that cause the loss and deterioration but even so, if the produce looks fresh, the ,,, MOM tttttt 101WHIMM114111111.011,00ifill,11.1.1 tttttttt M; nn i lll 10,0111110,01,1.”flittmOlintittlto!

The attendants were gowned alike in floor-length deep pink polyester satin. The bodices were overlaid with flowered nylon voile, which also formed the long full sleeves gathered at the wrists to cuffs of deep pink satin, To complete the outfits, the bridesmaids chose headpieces of matching voile, styled in a wedding ring with a bow at the back, They carried arm bouquets of gladioli, in shades to complement their gowns.

I have purchased vegetables and found them unsatisfactory in quality when I got them home and opened the bag. ANSWER: The supermarket personnel are continually striving to have produce staff check fresh produce daily for this type of thing but the consumer must also have a good look at fresh items before purchase. In addition, a number of fresh produce items are packaged in poly bags with perforations to let air circulate and reduce spoilage. Report any continual problem to the produce manager. The plastic one-packed method of retailing is thought to be the most efficient and least expensive in the long run. QUESTION: How long can one expect lettuce to stay in good condition under refrigeration? ANSWER: Properly selected and properly cared for, lettuce should keep under refrigeration at least one week. To prolong its life, wash lettuce with running water and dry it thoroughly on towels before storing. Do not remove the butt until just before use. Keep lettuce in a plastic bag separate from other vegetables. (Gas produced by some other vegetables has been linked to the brown "rust" spots on lettuce). Paper towels placed in the bag with the lettuce will absorb any excess moisture. QUESTION: About potatoes .. why not package Ontario culls and small sized potatoes separately and sell them at a cheaper rate? P.E.I. potatoes are preferable because their quality is dependable. ANSWER: Cull and below grade produce is not to be sold to the consumers in Ontario. We have had considerable trouble with peddlers selling this type of produce to housewives and generally every housewife who buys this type of produce complains of condition and size. There is no doubt that it would be cheaper to buy at the time but would be more expensive in the long run because of decay and other diseases that would appear on the produce. QUESTION: Much of the fruit, especially apples, coming from controlled atmosphere seem to have been picked too green. This is evident in colour and flavour. ANSWER: Generally apples that are picked and stored in controlled atmosphere storages are mature. However in the rush to fill storages, it is likely that some immature fruits are stored. On the whole, maturity is very good to excellent. Sometimes in the filling of storages, apples could be left on the tree too long and this condition causes apples to be soft when they are held in the stores for a few days. C.A. Apples when coming immediately from storage have no flavour and must be held for a few hours before the flavour is restored. Perhaps some of the apples you are talking about are in this category. QUESTION: Is it legal for fruit trucks to peddle apples door to door in residential areas? Are you paying less by eliminating the "middle man"? ANSWER: It is legal for peddlers to, peddle fruits and — Please turn to Page 9
