land one of my earliest memories
is beating up sponge cake made
after a recipe of my grandmother.

one of the first women to enroll in

upon food saving" she said. "Ev-
cry one was urged to conserve meat,
wheat and sugar as much as pos

does not emphasize saving, as much
as adequate nutrition in the foods
served to the Army and Navy" she
explained.
For IL years, Miss Barber has
been employed by a leading food
manufacturer in the Middle West

dietitian, cooking teacher, demon.

Nutrition Specialist
Stresses Importance
OF PRESERVING Foods

With the quick turn In international
events that has brought this country
into the war, the department of ag-
riculture,s food-for- freedom campaign
viii be even more important than ever
and playing a vital role In that cam
paign viii be the home production and
preservation of food from farm gar
dens, says Bessie E. McClelland, ex-
tension nutrition specialist at Mon
tana State college.
Community canning centers. she
says, offer a means for a number Of
families to utilize a comparatively
small amount of equipment. However,
steps toward organizing such a CO.
operative effort should be taken be-
fore the rush Of the summer canning
season starts. For this reason the win
ter meat canning season, which Is
shorter and can be regulated more
easily, makes a good time to try out
the cooperative plan and iron out any
kinks that may hinder the smooth OPP
Grafton of the organization.
To help rural homemakers In set
ting up a community food preserva-
ton center, Miss McClelland calls at
tention to a new handbook issued by
the United States department of ag
riculture and which is available free
to leaders In this community activity.

II. s. Women Lead Men
As HOSPITAL Patients

Women spent half again as much
time IN hospitals as men, according
to study Of hospital service associa-
lions made by Northwestern National
Life Insurance Co.
Digestive troubles send more men
to the hospital than any other cause,
while maternity Is the largest single
cause Of women's disqualification.
In 1910, for the first time In United
States history, more than half the
total new babies were born In hospitals
-1.214, 4o2 out Of 1880, S9e births. The
study gives much Of the credit for
this improvement to the rapid growth
Of the hospital service association
movement, which has expanded from
a few thousand members In 1881 to
nearly 100000 members today, most
Of them wage earners and their fam
lies.
