Gasoline — Gasci; ,e Black Markets are def i . lie incle.i.se iti the boUuuu.u. .w.a^.y m North Ca rolina, it has caused u temporary "drying up” of filling stations and is seriously hindering the war ef fort. To put and end to stolen or counterfeit coupons, which create and support the black markets, all mmorists are urged to indorse their gasoline coupons just as soon as they get them at the local1 War Price and Rationing Boards. I They should be endorsed in ink or with an indelible pencil and the endorsement should he the license number of the car for which the gas is issued and the abbreviation of the state in which the license was issued. Gasoline black markets do more than encourage crime; they act ually sap the strength of the whole war effort and rob honest car owners of their fair share of the nation's limited supply of gas oline. To keep the nation’s essent ial automobiles rolling, please be sure to endorse your gasoline cou pons immediately. Feed More Legume Hay To Dairy Cows Experiments have shown time ami again that good legume hay and good pasture are the founda tion of all dairy rations for prof itable milk production, says F. M. Haig, specialist in dairying for the State College Extension Ser vice. He points out that the dairy cow should be given practically all the feed that she will consume. This is because the dairy cow is the most efficient machine in the world for converting such raw materials as legume hay, si lage, grains and pasture into the most valuable and essential fin ished product, milk. Haig recommends the following winter ration for a 1,000 - pound cow, giving 4 gallons of milk [daily: 10 pounds of soybean hay; 30 pounds of corn silage; 10 pounds of corn and corn meal; and 1 pound of cottonseed meal, or 1 any other protein supplement, lie points out that any good legume hay may be used in place of soy bean hay in the recommendation. The important thing is that it be a good legume hay. In the recommended ration, 03 per cent of the digestible protein and 50 per cent of the total di gestible nutrients are furnished by the hay and silage, or the roughage part of the ration. This indicates the importance of good quality roughage as the founda tion of the dairy ration. “With good roughage, consid erably more than one half of tiie| nutrients required for milk pro-1 duction can be furnished •with ha® and silage in winter and with pasture in summer,” Haig says. “North Carolina has the climate, the soil and good dairy cows. More and better pastures, and more le gume hay and silage for winter feeding can greatly help in esta blishing a successful and perma nent system of agriculture,” he points out. _ SOME COOKING! SUGGESTIONS! MISS VIRGINIA BLOUNT Homo Economist VIRGINIA ELECTRIC ANI) POWER COMPAN V , Vitamin C - which is necessary] for (rood health, is sometimes lucking in winter when fresh fruit and vegetables are scarce or high j in price. Oranges and grapefruit I are the best source of that im portant vitamin. In order to get the full value from them, serve them whole, rather than as juice, as about one third of the vitamin value is saved. Other good sources of vitamin C are canned grapefruit and oran ge juice and tomato juice. In or-l der to get the same value from tomato juice it must be served in larger quantities than the other juices. The vegetables which are high in Vitamin C are fresh broccoli, Brussels sprouts and rutabagas. Cabbage, collards or other mem bers of the cabbage family are also good, cabbage has more vita min value if eaten raw. Potatoes,1 parsnips, squash and sweet po tatoes are all sources of vitamin C, but not as good as the citrus fruits and fresh tomatoes. In order to save all the food value and vitamin value possible • follow the rules for cooking, if the vegetables cannot be eaten raw. | 1. Cook in a small amount of water, usually from 1-2 to 1 c. is sufficient. 2. Cook in tightly covered con tainer. 3. Bring to boil quickly, and continue to cook on very low heat, J 4. Cook only until tender - Long cooking destroys food value, flavor and color. 5. Never add soda to vegeta bles, It destroys the vitamin con tent, 0, Do not pare or shred vegeta bles a long time before serving, unless kept tightly covered in re frigerator. 7. Cook vegetables in skins is possible or pare very thin. 8. Do not soak fresh vegetables in water. 9. Use water in which vegeta bles are cooked for soups and sauces. 10. Buy only fresh, crisp vege tables. The brighter the color, the more the food value, Carrot ltelish 4 carrots 1 lemon 1-2 c. sugar Slice lemon, remove seeds. Grind carrots and lemon in food chopper.
