THE KITCHEN CORNER Here are some brief items of advice and suggestions on food preservation. With people starv ing, we need to conserve every bit of our own food and waste nothing. Cabbage and potatoes are inex pensive sources of some of the Vitamin C supplied by citrus fruits and tomatoes. Twice as much tomato juice is needed to replace orange juice. Cheese may take the place of part of milk in the diet. Nutritionally, fortified marga rines may be used in place of butter. Stretch and alternate meat with other protein-rich foods: eggs, cheese, fish; when milk is served at the same meal, use soy-beans and cereals, dried peas and beans. Become more familiar with the less used cuts of meats. Keep poultry and meat in the coldest part of the ice-box or your coldest storage place—45 de grees or lower is best. Cover fresh meat loosely. Wipe with damp cloth just before cook ing. If ground, store in extra cool place, and cook soon. Cool meat broth rapidly, keep cold, use soon. Keep cooked meat covered Chopped and sliced, cooked meats spoil more quickly than meat in the piece. Cut or chop just before using. Keep meat sandwiches anc salads cold right up to serving time. Keep uncooked, well-cured meat in a dark, cool, dry, airy place. Leave wrappings on ham, bacon and other cured meat until ready to cook. Wash poultry thoroughly in side and out, pat dry and store very cold until time to cook. Fish and all other sea food spoils in a few hours at room tem perature. Cook at once, or wrap in wax paper to keep odor from other food and store very cold. Wipe off soiled spots on eggs with a dry, rough cloth. Don’t wash eggs before storing; water destroys the protective film that keeps out air and odor. Store eggs in open bowl or wire basket in a cool place. The fresher a vegetable when it is used, the better the taste, the less the waste and the more vit amins retained. Wilt not, waste not, is a golden rule for garden stuff. For household storage of fresh vegetables, use a cold, dark moist place. ’ Cool home-baked bread before storing in ventilated box. In hot weather, to keep bread from moulding, wrap in moisture-proof paper and put in refrigerator. Canned foods should be kept dry to prevent rust and spoilage Foods canned in glass should be stored in a cool, dark place. Quick-frozen foods must be kept frozen solidly in the freez ing compartment of mechanical refrigerators until used. Don’t hold too long even at freezing Once thawed, frozen foods spoil rapidly. Do not refreeze. Waste no fats. Store butter and other table fats in tightly covered dish es in a cold dark place away from strong odors. To keep cooking fats well, strain fat drippings to re move food particles and store in clean covered jars in cool dark dry place until used. ’ Don’t strain away vegetable juices. Save them for souds sauces, etc. ’ Save bread and cracKer crumbs for poultry stuffing or to make a crumb blanket for scalloped dish es. Use bacon and sausage fat to flavor other foods. You’ll find it especially good used in a white sauce and combined with various vegetables. Use as much home-grown food as possible. This does not neces sarily mean food from your own garden, but includes food grown locally where there is no trans portaUon problem in getting them ^0 your home. Miss Ponder Engaged To James W. Creech Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Ponder of East Plat Rock, N. C., have an nounced the engagement of their ^sughter, Margaret Nelle Ponder, to James Wilton Creech, son of and Mrs. J. E. Creech of East Rock.

The quality of the exhibits islightly exceeded the number ex hibited last year, being a total of 1,055 separate entries.
