tremendous enthusiasm our boys
courage and victories have produced
at home. Nothing has gratifed our
bows more than the knowledge that
the home-folk appreciate their work
here. They are determined to deserve
the confidence of our nation.
But do not expect victories every
day and do not lose confidence when
defeat comes. Just keep your nerve
and morale at the same high stand
ard the boys keep theirs.
If the boys over here can stand n
fight as their comrades fall about
them: if when wounded they go to
the hospitals, surrounded by the dead
and dying, and yet eager to return to
the fray-if the boys bravely stand up
under these conditions then you ok
at home can surely set your jaws and
hold your nerve against the record OF
over here, tragic as they may
be.

CANNING WITHOUT SUGAR

The United States Food Administra-
ton is asking everyone to buy for
household use no more sugar than is
absolutely necessary. This is asked
in order that there will be some for
canning. But fruits should be canned
without sugar if possible. Here are
two suggestions:
Make Fruit Leather-Mash ripe
fruit (berries, cherries, figs, apricots,
peaches and blue plums may be used)
to a pulp, spread on lightly oiled plat
ters and dry in the sun or dryer.
When dry, sprinkle with sugar, and
pack away in jars or very tight boxes
lined with wax paper. Peaches or
half and half peaches and figs make
delicious leather and need only a
sprinkling of sugar. Serve this
leather in winter instead of candy or
with cream cheese and nuts for des-
sert. Fruit leather may be soaked in
water and used for pies, shortcakes,
buildings, and sauces. When intended
for this purpose omit the sugar.
Bottle Fruit Juice Without Sugar
and save it for jelly until sugar is
more plentiful. Many fruits can be
dried. This will save sugar.
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1918-07-25

SUGAR NEWS

The French are getting a pound and
half of sugar a month and the ltal-
ians only a pound. They are not COM
planning. Shall we complain because
the Food Administration asks us to
cut down to the very smallest amount
possible our consumption of sugar?
The solution of the sugar problem
will now depend largely upon the CO.
operation of the housewife. If each
understands the situation thoroughly
there will be no complaints because
the grocer refuses to sell more than
the specified amount to each person.
The intelligent cooperation of pri-
vate homes all over the country is
necessary to save the fruit crop. Can
ming and preserving should be done
as much as possible without sugar.
Later when sugar is nor plentiful
it can be added to the fruits and veg
etables at the time of serving. By
putting their families on smaller
daily sugar rations, many housewives
will be able to save sugar for preserv-
ing fruit. With the fruit season com
ing on the family can easily go with
less sugar and it Is well to plan for
the future when sugar may be even
more scarce.
The shortage of sugar is not a great
hardship to the woman who cooks.
She knows that syrup and honey can
successfully replace sugar in many
recipes.
If less sugar is put on the table,
or if it is left off entirely for some
meals, people may get the habit of
going with less sweet and will be
healthier as well as more patriotic.

FILL EMPTY BOTTLES

Most of us have been told from
childhood the story Of the young
prince who searched the world over
for a buried treasure and at last found
it under his W door step.
Many times the thing we are eager
ly hunting for far from home is at
our very door. This is more than a
trite moral; it is practical advice. 1t
is especially practical today for the
housewife who may complain that be-
cause of the shortage of containers
she can not put up" as much food
stuffs this year as formerly.
Because a lack of tin, solder, rub
Der and labor has made a shortage of
cans and jars, it does not necessari-
ly follow that there is a shortage of
containers. How about all those bot.
ties you have tucked away on the
back shelf of the pantry and in out
of-the-way corners of the cellar? They
may be brought u and used, If prop
