Raleigh.—When the dehydra
tion of foods has been perfected,
the housewife cen go to the cor
ner grocery and hying home In
her purse enough ^vegetables to
feed a family of six fob a day, ac
cording to Hugh • B. Martin,
marketing specialist with the
State Department 'sf Agriculture.
One dehydration plant Is now
In operation In Surry county and
others are planned for Raleigh,
White vine and Wilmington.
Watch for an expansion of the
dehydration of foods," sfys Mar-
utn, and added: "V seems likely
that in 1943 we will see great
strides with this new industry.
Although It Is now being used for
the use of the government, 'it will
probably remain for civilian use
after the war."
The IJlvislon of Markets, seeing
the tin shortage and the drastic
cut In transportation facilities, be
gan experiments with dehydration
In Raleigh last fall. Very little
information was available on the
subject at that time and the ag
riculture officials proceeded on a
trial and error biisis. A small
dehydrator was put Into operation
and experiments were carried out
with cabbage. beets, carrots,
white potatoes and sweet pota
toes.
Keeping a #veather eye on the
army, which has set up definite
speflficatlons, as to moisture and
tefture and good flavor of the
products after the dehydraion
process Jiad been completed, the
State Department of Agriculture
supervised the building of a plant
for commercial use near Mt. Airy.
The army gave J. G. Wood,
operator of the plant, a contract
for the dehydration of 1,600 tons
of raw cabbage (80 tons of de
hydrated cabbage). Since the
plant began work, a total of 800
tons of raw cabbage have been
treated. The remainder of the
contract will he filled as soon os
the spring crop of cabbage is
available.
- "Dehydration not only pre
serves the product, but reduces
its weight and bulk—sometimes
to as low as five per cent of the
original. This is done by the
mechanictil circulation of heat
and air in tunnels or compart
ments under a system of controls.
Virtually all the moisture is re-

What I my self»saw in my four
years in Europe gave me a new
realization of - the priceless rights
which we here enjoy.
No secret police can in the night
whisk us aw^, never again to be
seen by those we love.
None of us can be deprived by any
party, state or tyrant of those pre
cious civil liberties which our laws
and our courts guarantee.
None of us can be persecuted for
practicing the faith which we found
at cor mother’s knee. *
None of us can be persecuted, tor
tured or killed because of the fact
that an accident of fate might have
made us of the same race as the
Nazarene.
No American can be placed by
any party or government in a regi
mented vise which takes from him
or her either freedom cl economic
oi^ortunity or political religious lib
erty.
What would the millions of unfor
tunate men, women and children in
moved from the product, * explains \ give to be able to live and
enjoy such a way of life?

Accovding to Martin, it is pos
sible with dehydrated products to
prepare mashed potatoes in three
minutds flat. And he advises the
housewife: "Better keep a little
milk powder around; and then if
the milkman falls to arrive some
morning you can obtain milk—
cream and all—by pouring a
pitcher of water into a small
amount of the dehydrated milk.”
The process of putting tlie

referred to as "reh^drating” it
The success of the hydration op

the flavor, volume and texture
that reappear after the product

Well, in this war, those are the
things in cur lives which are in
jeopardy. Our boys are dying to pre
serve them for us.
Then we can do no less than to
"say yes" and fill those war stamp
albums. It is our duty and privilege,
to help the secretary of the treasury,
Mr. Morgenthau, in his magnificent
effort to do the tremendous job of
getting the money to keep our boys
supplied with the weapoiis with
which to fight our fight.
Surely that is little enough for us
to do on the home front. ,

On behalf of the Wilkes County

to express our sincere appreciation
the fine work of William F. Ab-

vice-chairman, of the Wilkes co'.ui-

tributed to date is $928.74. • ’This
exceeds the quota set for Wilkes
county by $167.74. Half of, this
amount stays in the county and
half is forwarded to the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralys-
The Lions club did a fine job
of sponsoring the drive. The Kl-
wanis club and the manufacturing
plants are all on the Roll of Hon
or. The fine'cooperation of indi
vidual citizens in this war to
slamip out infantile paralysis is
deeply appreciated.
our connty and nation are
