Fifty Per Cent Increase in

FOrecaSted.
HOME CANNING URGED
Restrictions on Sugar to BE
Lifted During Season
Of Preserving.

Housewives of the country who have
been disposed to live in the winter
time out of tin cans will find rude
jclt in the prediction which has just
been issued that canned goods are to
be at least so per cent higher.
This radical rise is due mostly to
the fact that Uncle Sam is going to
require a great per cent of the output
OF the canning factories this season
for feeding his armies, both in France
and those under training for service at
= the cantonments.
Let Sugar Bars Down.
AS means to offset this, skylarking
of canned fruits and vegetables house
keepers are warned by the food ad-
ministration to prepare their own pre-
serves beans, peas, etc, for next win
ter. As an aid and to give an incen-
tive for such preparation, it has been
decided to let down the bars for sugar
purchasing during the time the canning
season is on.
But it is pointed out that there are
other ways to meet the shortage be
sides the canning Of fruits and pre-
serves which would require a large
amount Of sWeetening. Missoula viii

of vegetables in It's history. Some of
these will be available for winter use
without other care than the harvesting
and storing in cellars. Others can be
Kept by the drying process. This is
especially applicable to some fruits
which arc grown extensively in this
locality.
Dried Apples Substitute.
The time is not so far distant when
the mothers of the nation prepared for
the winter season by drying bushels of
apples. This was done before the day
OF the tin can and glass jars. And while
to some the dried apple does not re-
call memories that are the most pleas
ant, yet If necessity demands the re-
turn To those days we can turn the
pages back a few years and do il
again.
However. it is expected that before
this seasons output Of canned goods is
placed on the market the prices will
have been fixed by the government
This does not mean, though. that there
Is going to be plenty 10 feed the SOL
diers and provide sufficient for house

be exhausted before the winter has
