dishes for our families, I'm giving
you two recipes today. Do try them,

No longer can anyone sit back calmly with the knowledge
that Canada is a great storehouse of food—that our fighting
forces and we at home are sure of ample food supplies. The
beef shortage and the rationing of foods are evidence that
supplies are growing scarce.
There are two reasons for present and threatened food
shortages. First, our nation is exporting more food than ever
before in her history. Second, our farmers are shorthanded.
They need help because agricultural workers have left them
to join the armed forces and to work in munitions plants at
wages higher than the farmer can pay.
Because of the nature of his work, the farmer's greatest
need for help comes with seeding in the spring and ends with
late harvesting in September. There are two very difficult
peaks to get over with haying and harvesting in the Summer
when the demand for manpower on the farm is tremendous.
Experience or no experience, YOU CAN HELP, There's
an Ontario Farm Service Force Brigade in which you can
serve regardless of age, sex or occupation. Five of the Brigades
are outlined here. Study them now and fill in the coupon
