The communities of i Marshall, Mars Hill, Burns ville and Bakersville are in cluded in the acquisition. The present distribution system consists of 140 mil es serving 585 farm homes in Madison and Buncombe counties in North Carolina and Unicoi county in Ten nessee. An allotment of $235,000 was secured in November, 1941 for the construction of 240 miles of line serving aproximat ely 1287 consumers in Bun combe, Madison and Yan cey counties, but the emer gency has placed a Stop Order on all new construct ion. s Actual construction cannot begin on the port ion known at the B project. Also a Stop Order was pla ced on all new construction contemplating in the’ $750, 000 allotment received on June 9. 1942. “Our organization belie ves that the new members who receive service thro ugh this organization will . gain lasting benefits,” Mr. Robinson said. The French Broad Electric Membership Corporation-is built upon the principle that by work ing together men can ach eive goals beyond the reach of independent, divided ef fort^.Strengthening of this| co-op—a work in which every member plays a part —will strengthen and build! our communities and the agriculture by which th£y subsist. “If this co-op-accomplish es nothing more, during the war, than the develop ment of a, steady trend to ward diversification of ag riculture, it will have prov- 1 ed its worth. Our first job, pf course, is to apply our kilowatts to the war and this can best be done by intelligent d i versification of crops. If we pull togeth er and use our resources wisely we will find that when Victory is won we’ll all be in a better position to build a prosperous area.

Morris, Exten sion food conservationist of N. C, -State College, “but it will suffice if care is used.” The Extension worker makes the following sugar saving suggestions to home Scanners: If you pack your fruit hot in its own juice, you will need much less sp ?arftham if. you paekPtne ruit cold, then cover it with sugdr-and-water sy rup. Remember, sugar is not needed in canning to keep food from spoiling. But it does help the fruit to hold color and flavor. By sweetening the fruit slightly, and then heating it, you can draw out juice from the fruit itself —in many cases make it unnec essary to can any added water. For juicy fruits, usually it’s best to separate the riper fruits from those . less ripe. Then you can , crush the riper fruits Vipai them, and extract juice j from them. Preheat the ,less ripe fruit, which you have set aside, in this juice. Add sugar to sweeten slig ; htly if necessary. Fill the ! jars. Make sure there is plenty of juice , to cover the fruit. Process in a wat er bath. Certain varieties of pea ches amt pears may not yield enough of their own juice to make the canning i liquid. You’ll get more juice from these fruits if you slice them and add a little sugar before you pre cook them. If ; there isn’t enough juice to cover the fruit in the) cans, use syrup to fill the jars—a syrup made from one or more cups of sugar to one quart of water. FARMERS...
