Pork Sausage

Sausage may be dried and smoked or
canned fresh. The storage of dried
smoked sausage in refined edible oil is
satisfactory and may be in friction-top
syrup cans to exclude dust and insects.
No processing with heat is required.
Sausage, if packed as fresh patties or as
cured stuffed sausage into cans or jars
without liquid, should be processed at
10 pounds pressure for 40 minutes.
1t is important that the sausage not
contain an excess of fat--not more than
pounds fat to pounds lean give a
satisfactory product. The fat, if excess
sive, cooks out leaving shrunken, hard
sausage. The fat extracted in the can
or jar tends to become rancid.
Sausage for canning requires little
less of most seasoning than that to be
dried and smoked. 1t may be either
sausage should be cured, cut into
lengths to fit the container, packed and
precooked in the container for Is min
utes at boiling, then sealed and process
sed Immediately, 40 minutes at 10 lbs.
pressure. The fresh patties should be
scared quickly with no attempt to COM
plete cooking, packed into containers
sealed hot, and processed 40 minutes at
10 pounds pressure.
Fresh sausage may be packed into
cans which are set into boiling water
deep enough to cover cans to within
inch of top. Put cover on kettle and al
low to boil cntil color of sausage at top
of cans changes. Seal hot and process
No. cans so minutes at Is pounds pres
sure, No. 8 cans rs minutes at Is pounds
pressure. Sausage canned this way may
be removed from the can after top is
removed by heating in boiling water to
melt the fat The loaf may then be
sliced and fried as would fresh sausage.
A good recipe for sausage for canning
is: lbs. lean meat, lbs. fat meat, 3
tbsp. salt, tbsp. sage, 3 tsp. black pep
per, 8 tsp. red pepper, l tsp. allspice.
Mix thoroughly. If too dry to form into
patties or stuff easily, add a small
amount of cold water.

and lazy fat hens that have not been
earning their keep. BY all means use a
steam pressure cooker to insure safe
glass jars as containers. Process the
No. cans or pint jars for 60 minutes
at 10 pounds pressure, and the quart
jars or No. 3 cans for 1870 minutes at
10 pounds pressure. Quart jars should
not be used except where the bones are
not removed and the pieces are loosely
packed.
The roasters may be baked, boned
then packed in containers and covered
with brown broth from the roasting pan.
If it is desired to use the chicken for
stews, pies, salads, croquettes and other
dishes, the fowls may be dressed, salted
and steamed in the pressure cooker for
Is minutes for each pound of weight at
10 pounds presscre. This permits the
removal of the bones, after which it is
packed in containers. covered with
broth, sealed or partially sealed if three
piece jar tops are used, and processed
for the required time.
The livers, hearts and gizzards are
canned separately as they impart de-
| cidedly characteristic flavor. Bring to
boil in chicken broth or salted hot
water. Pack in sterlized pint or No. 2
containers and process for 60 minutes
at 10 pounds pressure.
Full directions on preparing the birds
for killing, dressing, cutting and pre-
pairing for canning is contained in Mis-
sissippi Extension Bulletin No. 115, Meat
Canning, which may be obtained from
your home demonstration agent.

WAR PROGRAM:
Capitalization Needed

Like doctors in q clinic, members
of the senate's Truman investigating
committee gave the progress OF the
war program q thorough examina-
4ion and emerged with three basic
reasons for ''nearly all the failures
and shortcomings" found.
!. First reason was inadequate
overall planning within government
agencies at the beginning of the va
Tious programs; second was ''con-
faicting authority over various phases
Of the war program; and third,
"hesitancy Of the government to
adopt unpopular or unpleasant poll
cies long after the facts indicated
such policies were necessary"
In recommending corrections, the
committee called for clearly defined
authority. centralized in few Of
fcials, during the coming year. In
cidentally, the committee warned
that the year ahead would be the
toughest and grimmest in U. S. his
tory.

CRADLE TO CRAVE:
Security Plan Proposed

A postwar economy in the United
States in which freedom from
want would be translated from a
pious theory to an operating reality
was envisioned in a revolutionary
social security plan drawn up by
the National Resources Planning
board and laid before congress by
President Roosevelt.
Stating that it should be the de-
clared policy of this government
mot only to promote and maintain
q high level of national production
and consumption" the boards re-
port urged:
1-Guarantee Of a job for every
man released from the armed forces
and war industry after the wars
conclusion, with fair pay and work.
ing conditions; 2-Government un-
derwriting of full employment for all
employables.
Among other recommendations
were plans for joint private-govern-
ment partnerships in various post
war industries; creation of nation
al unemployment compensation
fund; increased old age benefits; ex-
banded public works programs.

NAZI OFFENSIVE:
Same Result as 'I8?

Military historians were drawing
parallels between the latest German
offensive whose initial operations
had hurled the Russians back in the
Kharkov area, and the historic Lu-
dendorff Hindenburg offensive in
July, 1918, which preceded Ger
many's final collapse.
AS in World War I, this new Of
fensive was undertaken after weeks
Of costly defeat. A major victory
now was urgently needed-the same
as rs years ago, if the military gains
resulting from invasion were to be
held.
Whether the final result this time
would be as rapid as before, time
alone would tell. But it was clear
that the Nazis had thrown in supe-
rior forces and equipment in gam
BILE to prevent a complete loss Of
their conquests.
Further north the picture was diff
ferent. The fall of Vyazma had
clearly proved that Nazi pressure on
the Kharkov front did not prevent
the Russians from continuing their
advances toward Snolensk. With
wanna and Rzhev gone, the main
bastions protecting Smolensk from
the east were now in Russian hands.

RATIONINC:
Healthy Diet Sure

Americans frightened their belts in
anticipation Of the simmer portions
of meat. canned fish, butter, cheese
and edible fats the new rationing
regulations effective March 20 would
impose.
=, To those who for months had been
following the Food Administrations
request to ration themselves volun-
tarily, the new estimated ration of
about two pounds weekly of meat
per person ''more or less" repre-
scented only slight shift downward.
Still unrationed as the orders went
into effect were poultry, fresh fish
and such rarely used meats as rab-
bit and other game. The new ra-
tioning orders had been accompa-
MED by the heartening news that
coffee would be more plentiful, with
one pound every five instead of six
weeks, and that point values on dry
beans and peas had been lowered.
All things considered, the new reg
ulations would reduce consumption
of the foods they covered by from
IL to is per cent. That supplies as
sured a healthy diet was empha-
sized by Food Administrator Wick
ard. Estimates indicated that 1913
per capita civilian supplies Of meat,
cheese, fats and other commodities
would be about equal to the average
for 1859.

TAX PLANS:
RynpI ReviUed

Like the cat with nine lives, the
Ruml plan to skip a tax year and
put Americas 44,O00,0O0 taxpayers
on a pay-as-you-go basis, was hard
to kill.
Even though the house ways and
means committee had approved q
plan imposing 20 per cent with
holding levy from pay envelopes eff
fective July / and making "pay-as-
you-go" optional with each taxpay-
err, proponents of the Ruml plan,
principally in the ranks Of the Re
publican minority, had ranged them
selves solidly behind bill embrace
ing the Ruml principles.
Sponsors Of the house ways and
means committees tax program
pointed out that the withholding levy
would not be a straight 20 per cent
deduction against wages and sala-
ries, but against the portions Of such
earnings remaining after deductions
were made on the basis of depend
ents. The levy would not be an
additional tax, but merely means
of collecting actual taxes through
wage and salary deductions.

NORTH AFRICA:
Axis Hopes DINNER

Holed up Ia the Mareth line after
having received q furnishing beating
Nazi Marshal Rommel has had to
face the consequences Of being
ringed in by an Allied line Of steel.
That those consequences were to be
serious and might even reach the
disastrous proportions Of a defeat
rivaling the Axis rout at Stalingrad
was the opinion Of seasoned OBJ
servers.
Faced by the increasing strength
of General Montgomery's British 9th
army and by the reinforced and bat
tle-seasoned American forces Of
Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, Rommel
and his cohort, Col. Gen. Won Ar
MIN, had their work cut out for
them.

LEND LEASE:
Diplomacy Weapon

Predictions that lend-lease ship
ments in the coming year would
dwarf all previous records and that
Uncle Sam would use it more and
more as means of obtaining agrees
ments with nations receiving it for
postwar security, were voiced by
Washington observers, after the
house and senate had approved ex-
tension of lend-lease for another
year.
What eventual payment this ma
ton will seek for it's wartime aid
to its allies and friendly neutrals re-
manned to be seen. Two major prin-
ciples were involved, however. One
was the promotion of a stable eco
nomic situation throughout the world
after the war. The other was the
necessity of America obtaining adj
ditional naval and air bases to help
