Wartime Storage
Of Surplus Food
An almost certain scarcity of pres-
sure cookers plus probable shortage
of food containers and of family la-
bor means shifts from canning like-
ly will be necessaiv nays Mrs. Ros-
ella Cook, Home Demonstration Ag-
ent. To offset any resulting reduc-
tion in the farm food supply, Texas
families are encouraged to extend the
period when leafy and other hardy
vegetables are available fresh. This
requires protection from frost and
good garden management.
Store large amounts of potatoes,
sweet potatoes, onions and other root
vegetables, cabbage, pumpkinB, ap-
ples, squash and pears. Many fami-
lies have cellars. Materials for con-
structing outdoor pits or banks are
easily obtained.
;Make kraut of surplus cabbage and
purple topped turnips. Green toma-
toes and string beans can ibe brined
for later use in pickling if, contain-
ers are scarce.
Preserve surplus cured meats in
cottonseed oil. Many Texas families
have found this method highly satis-
factory.
Make less jellies and rich preserves
but can more fruits in light syrups,
pie fruits and iruit juices. These with
dried fruit will help families make
adjustments to sugar rationing more
easily.
Of course, pressure cookers should
be used in canning non-acid vegeta-
bles, poultry and meats.
Every farm family should have a
food preservation budget. Families
who have never made budgets before
should obtain the help of home food
supply demonstrators who have been
trained by county home demonstra-
tion agents. It's a good idea for fam-
ilies who have made budgets before
to re-check them, especially if there
has been a change in the number of
family members at home.
Families should be urged to pre-
pare now for storing food in a va-
riety of ways, if they plan to can
food, they should check shelf space
and assure proper ventilation.
If they plan to add cellars, venti-
lated p4ntries or storage mounds,
they shouid obtain plans immediately,
get the necessary materials and do
as much of the construction now as
practical. I

of Alaska depend on reindeer as a
source of food and clothing.

back only furs, but today fish and

thirsty criminals match wits with an
exceptionally clever detective.

Synthetic Rubber

the war ends but no hope has been offered for

An unusual kind of guard (without a gun) is con*
stantly on "watch" over your Dependable Natural
Gas Service.
Quietly through every night and every day, the load
dispatchers of this Company and associated Com-
panies marshal the Gas reserves throughout the
System to meet the demands of this area, whether
for a gigantic war plant or for domestic needs.
Nerve center of more than 3,300 miles of telephone
and telegraph lines and more than 6,000 miles of
pipe lines, the load dispatchers are only a small part
of the more than 3,000 skilled, experienced em*
ployes whose duty it is to keep the Gulf Souih's
Natural Gas Service DEPENDABLE.
This dependability of Natural Gas is what makes it
such a valuable fuel for industry, either for war or
peacetime production, and it has meant much in
creating greater payrolls and greater war produc-
tion for the Gulf South.
