Frozen-pack vegetables from free.
zer lockers should be treated like
! any perishable food. says Miss Pearl
/ Macdonald. Nutrition Specialist Of
the University Extension Depart
ment.
"The Bureau Of Chemistry and
Soils Of the U. S. Department oi
Agriculture recently reported the
results of Investigations in hand
ling these foods she pointed out,
saying that the tests showed that
when the temperature OF defrost-
ed vegetable reached so to 20 de-
grees F. the heterogeneous which
have survived the freezing quickly
start to multiply.
"Frozen-pack vegetables held at a
temperature Of 40 degrees, as in a
domestic refrigerator, kept longer
than at ordinary temperatures. but
slow growth OF organisms is not
prevented at this temperature, "
Miss Macdonald stated. "A frozen
pack vegetable in the partly thawed
state will show bacterial activity
about the third day" she added.
After reaching a temperature Of
40 degrees, defrosted peas Of good
quality were found to spoil in less
than 10 hours. When held at 40 de-
grees, they kept successfully for
more than four days. Peas kept bet
ter than spinach at both tempera-
lures. The type of container used
did not affect the time required to
bring about changes in the product.
The safest way to handle frozen
vegetables from the freezer-locker,
Miss Macdonald says, is to open the
container and empty the still frozen
contents into hot water in which
they are to be cooked.

Twigs and branches too small for
fuel have their own value in the
well managed farm woodland, Soil
Conservation Service workers point
out. They should be left to decay
and help feed the coming crop Of
trees. To pile and burn them is as
wasteful as burning the straw from
a grain crop. Farmers who are
double-cropping the wooded areas
for timber and fuel and also for
wild game-may want to pile some
of the small branches. Brush piles
are fayorite refugees for many birds
and many varieties of small game.
other waste material. well scatter
ed, will decay and return to the soil
as a spongy humus that puts soil
into the best copdition to absorb
rainfall, thus helping prevent ero-
sion and providing needed raw ma
terial for thrifty forest growth.

In regions where winter SHOWS
produce a good part of the moisture
needed for spring crops, farmers
who left contour strips Of vegeta-
tiOn standing in cultivated fields af-
ter harvest this fall probably will
find soil moisture much greater next
spring than in fields without vege-
tation. according to the Soil Con-
servation Service Of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture.
The strips act like snow fence [
to break the force of the wind and /
cause drifting. When the snow I
melts. the strips impede the flow of
run-off water and force more Of II (
to penetrate the soil where it can
be stored for plant growth.
Farmers also are finding these
buffer strips of vegetation boon to
because they furnish food
and cover for game birds and ami
mails during the winter months.

Taylor is played by Gary Cooper, who hardly performed as well in any of his long string of credible adventure stories-possibly because he was re-enacting a story from historys pages for the first time.
 The William Brown" was equip ped with only two life boats and Taylor realized that he could never bring the entire ships company to safety in the frail craft. He order ed a trial to determine who should be permitted to go aboard the life boats and who should be ordered at pistol point-to remain aboard and go to the bottom with the ill., fated vessel. He included himself among the survivors not because he wanted to save his life, he
