Estimate Cost Of Bus Roads Would Pass 500 Million Raleigh, Jan. 27—Gov. Kerr Scott's proposal to pave every North Carolina road used by school buses would cost $519,822,000, the State Highway commission reported to day. The commission issued a study prepared by its division of statistics and planning which showed that school buses travel over 41,315 mile's of l'oad every day. Of that total some 28,879 miles is not hard sur faced, the report showed. Constantly-changing j-outes might make paving of many of the roads "impractical," a commission spokes man said. STATE COLLEGE HINTS TO FARM HOMEMAKERS ! By RUTH CURRENT State Home Demonstration Agent j Even small considerations count in saving time and strength on clean ing jobs around the house, household equipment specialists believe. For example, the length of the handle of apy cleaning tool is important be cause it affects the stooping which causes unnecessary fatigue. In brushing up floors a long handled dust pan and a push broom are recommended instead of the | common short-handled dust pan and! dust brush because the long handles j save back-bending. Before buying a | vacuum cleaner, it is a good idea to; try it out to see whether the handle J is the right length for comfortable j use. | When waxing the floors, spare the back by using a long-handled mop j rather than the arduous hands-and- j knees method. Even in dishwashing a handle may ' prevent stooping. If the sink is too j low or too deep, a dish mop is better; than a dish cloth because its handle I saves that wearisome bend-over. A J rack for the sink helps build up the , pan. j Few Bacteria in Frozen Foods Reassurance from experiment sta-j tion scientists that is properly pre- J pared, foods have few bacteria when home-frozen. This test was made on! vegetables. Miss Nita Orr, specialist' in frozen foods, State College, will j be glad to give you correct methods I for properly preparing food for; freezing. Many a housewife has an eager j interest in collecting new recipes, j Some surveys indicate that the aver-; age housewife is more interested in, new recipes than in the basic prin- ] ciples of cookery—or the founda-j tion recipes developed from them. | Yet a knowledge of these relatively j few foundations may make her a > better cook than a whole library of j cookbooks and recipe clippings,; cookery scientists suggest. Any cook with imagination can' develop innumerable new dishes; from the simple basic recipes with-! out leaning heavily on cookbooks. In feeding the family on a budget, where skillful use of all leftovers is important, cookbooks may be less. helpful than the cook's own knowl- i edge of how to use what she has ac-; cording to good cookery principles.\ Even if she takes time to leaf! through all her books, she may not! find a recipe that just fits that half! cup of meat, bit of cheese, or other leftover on hand. r rom the simple basic recipe tor^ white sauce, hundreds of "new" j sauces can be developed. Add to j this basic sauce chopped hard-cook-1 ed eggs and a little lemon juice fori an egg sauce for fish. Put in chop-! ped green pepper, onion or parsley I for extra color or flavor. Add cheese' to the white sauce for a cheese sauce. In place of some of the fat in the recipe, use peanut butter fori a peanut flavored sauce. All the \ variations go back to the simple principles of combining and cooking fat, flour and liquid into a smooth sauce of the right thickness. Again, a vast number of hot breads have come from the standard recipe for baking powder biscuits. Add to that recipe chopped nuts,] grated cheese, grated orange rind,, egg or a little sweetening—and there's a different biscuit for the family. "Once familiar with the basic principles of rccipes, you are set to take it from there," the cookery scientists say. Average time for milking a cow by hand is 8.7 minutes per cow. But the average time for milking a cow by machine is only !>.3 minutes. At the present time, 42 of the 48 states have artificial dairy breeding associations in operation. NATIONAL FARM NEWS Scientists at the Southern Region al Research Laboratory near New Orleans have found that immature' ! cotton makes cloth that is more! water-tight than that from mature j fibers. The U. S. has accounted for al most one-third of the world's appar el wool consumption for the past six years. Before you can ask other people to respect you, it is necessary that you respect yourself first. r Saving more people more money from Coast to Coast ^'ANNIVERSARY SALE CELEBRATING REXALL'S 46-YEAR-OLD POLICY OF KEEPING PRICES DOWN MONEY SAVERS SAVE ON STATIONERY NOW! js. gHHj puretest W PLENAMINS MULTI-VITAMIN CAPSULES Plus Liver Concentrate and Iron 72 Capsules m* Special Combination Offer!
