' The British cnt off Germany’s •npply of fats end oil in World War 1, and the resulting shortage was a major contribution to the Unal outcome of the war. To aToid such a shortage in this 'wer i A little alley cat entered/ the tag room where the seaa> interstate commerce committee was bolding hearings on the American Federa tion of Mnsic’s ban on mnric. Sena tor Ernest McFarland ff ^risona is shown petting it. Germany has foiled housewives tci lapXiA . .ul^ks and'baa «yatem to reoorer ai ; it has been oatimated that inbris thru one billion pounds of fate and greases are wasted in the kitchens 'of America each year^' pour^ down the drains or. Ihtg. garbage pails. This is a chpllenji^^ to every housewife in Amerldp for it is her Job to see that ihls fat Is saved. ' ' In the past we got almost a, bil lion pounds a year of fats from far Eastern sources now cut off by the Japs—coconut oil and corpa from the Philippines, palm oil from the Dutch East Indies and Malaya, tung oil from Chinay perioUa oil from Manchuria and Japan. Now our problem is to replace all of this loss. Increpsed imports of oil and oil seeds from our neighbors pk Centra! end Souttf America rfrtly replace this loss. Farmera^oo, in this country are. increas^g the acreage of high oil- yieldittp crops such ps cotton seed, soybMns and peanuts.

Str^n the fat through an or dinal^ strainer into a clean, smo(^-edged cpn and store in a coobj^ark place or a refrigerator unti|t you have a pound. Then cer|jr it to your butcher or gro- ceif;lrom whom you purchase your m(^t, and he will pay you three c^ts per pound for it.

No amount of waste fat is too small to save. One tablespoonful a day will mean almost one pound per month, and this should oe possible in every household in the state if the housewife will use a little less for seasoning in order to back up the boys in the armed forces. This is the woman’s job ... a Job for everyone and anyone whose family responsibilities pre vent more active participation in the war effort. The goal is to salvage from households 200,000,000 pounds per year, or 16,677,000 pounds per month. The United States is consuming and exporting approximately 20.- 000.000 more pounds of glycerine per year than she is producing. This excess of consumption over production is being met by exist ing stock piles which mns^ be kept at a safe level by salvaging all waste fats. Every housewife in North Carn- lino is apked to do her part—one h?lf pound per family per month. Are you doing your part? V More Milk Beii^ Produced Result 01 Good Feeding Milk production of North Caro lina dairy herds otn be greatly increased through proper care and feeding, says J. A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at N. C. State College. Years of herd improvement as sociation work in the state have conclusively shown thit 'inprofi- table production of many cows Is due to poor feed and care, rather than to a lack of the inherited ability to produce milk. Arey cited the records of eleven mature Jersey cows which were on test at Willard. With a medi um feed allowance, which was bel ter than that received by other nearby herds, they produced cn average of >4.240 pounds of milk and 206 fiounds of fat per year. Later, these same cows were giv en a fpll ration of similar feeds, but in different proportions, and the average production jumped to 7,125 pounds of milk and 352 pounds of fat per year. ^ Although more feed was con sumed during the second period, the cost of producing one hun dred pounds of milk was 27 per cent less, points out Arey, and this was due to the increase in milk production. The specialist said that If all North Carolina dairy cows were given a full feed ration and a re sulting increase milk production obtained like that in the test at Willard, the average North Caro lina cow would produce 263 poundj of fat rather than 159 pounds, and North Carolinia would add 42,138,600 pounds of butlarfat this year to meet in creasing war needs.
