STOP Waste IN
THE HOME KITCHEN
MANY LITTLE SAVINGS MAY
BE ACCOMPLISHED BY AM
ERICAN HOUSEWIVES IN
HELPING CONSERVE
FOOD SUPPLY

By Miriam NJ. Haynes, Colorado Ag-
ricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo
The patriotic American housekeep-
er, in striving to do her bit" in the
nationwide campaign to conserve our
food supply, finds herself confronted
with the necessity of revising her
methods of conducting her home.
While home-maker may be con-
vinced, and justly, that she is not
wastefui, if she will examine her
methods she will often find that she
is extravagant. In the present ma
tional crisis, we need to practice the
old-fashioned thrift and economy of
our grandmothers in our homes. We
are not advocating the eating of less
food but we are urging less waste in
food. The amount actually wasted in
home may seem small in each in
dividual case, but when the waste
goes on throughout the nation it soon
counts up.
Fifty-seven varieties of food are
not necessary for well-balanced ra-
ton, in fact the 81 varieties may be
present and square meal" absent
Let US, as hDme-malers, set about to
be food conservAtors by
studying food values SO as to
plan economical and properly bal
anced meals.
Make use of meat substitutes
such as cheese, milk, beans, as,nuts.
Make use of rice as a starchy food
and corn as bread stuff.
eliminate over-eating and use of
excessive md wasteful variety of
foods.
Give careful attention to can
ming, drying and proper storing of
vegetables and fruits. (Look up in
formation now, before canning sea-
son; save all bottles as food contain
ers as there is sure to be scarcity of
fruit jars.)
Start simple systems Of home
accounts to check household "leaks''
in business methods.
Hold to simple standards of living.
Simplicity means the elimination of
non-essentials.
