You Should Buy Your
Canned Goods Wisely
With food prices soaring from, week
o week, Texas’ people who can’t pro-
duce and conserve most of their food
at home need more than ever to get
full value for their money when they !
buy canned foods.
Grace I. Neely, specialist in food
conservation for the A. and M. Col-
lege Extension Service, points out
that wheather the customer’s pocket-
book is plump or lean, it pays to buy
canned goods wisely.
Since there are thousands of brands
available in retail stores neither the
homemaker nor the retailer can be
sure of the quality each brand is sup-
posed to represent. That’s where the
Department of Agriculture’s Agri-
cultural Marketing Service has come
to the rescue. Regardless of the brand
name, the quality classes for canned
fruits and vegetables established by

vide a reliable means of identifying
quality. Only products packed in
plants under the “continuous inspec-
tion” of the Agricultural Marketing
Service can be labeled as a “U. S.
grade.”
Here are the four grades, guide-
posts to consumers:
Grade A (Fancy)—Only the finest
canned fruits and vegetables are in
this grade. They are carefully select-
ed as to size, color, degree of maturity
and freedom from blemishes.
Grade B (Choice)—Products in
Grade B are of excellent quality but
not so carefully selected or so tender
and succulent as those in Grade A.
Grade C (Standard)—Products in
Grade C are of good quality but not
uniform in color, size and maturity
as B. ,
Below Grade C—Some canned fruits
and vegetables which fail to meet the
requirements of grade C in certain
respects may be wholesome, nutritious
and acceptable in flavor. If labled to
meet regulations under the Federal
Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act they
may be sold on the retail market.

turkeys are in the offing. It is timely,
therefore, for producers to go over all
marketable birds carefully, much as
livestockmen cut out their cattle, says
George P. McCarthy, poultry husband-
man of the A. and M. College Exten-
sion Service. Only those turkeys often
referred to as “ripe” are in best con-
dition to go to market.
Growers can determine whether
birds have developed well in flesh by
feeling the keel and along the should-
ers and thighs. If they are well flesh-
ed then examine further to see
whether they have put on fat. This is
best indicated by layers of fat found
along the thin feather tract of the
breast and on the thighs. Examination
should continue to see whether they
have developed pin feathers.
Pin feathers, McCarthy explains,
cut a turkey in grade probably more
than any other thing. If a turkey has
not developed pin feathers to the
point where they protrude through
the skin and have taken on a fanlike
shape, then it can easily be classified
as green. Should a turkey of this
kind be dressed out a heavy scatter-
ing of pin feathers would be found
over the breast and on the thigh. The
degree of pin feather developmnt
easily can be detrmined by folding
back some of the feather tracts along
the breast to see whether feathers
have developed well in the area, then
looking on the inside of the wing to
see whether the pin feathers have pro-
truded through the web part of the
wing. If the thigh is rather smooth
to the touch, then pin feathers’ have
developed and taken on a fanlike
