TWO.BITS RETIRES

MEDFORD, Ore. - Two-Bits,
the cliff-jumping fox terrier, Is
retiring to the farm.
He nose-dived over an 300
foot cliff in January, and his
master gave him up for dead.
Ten days later the dog, who had
landed in a snow-bank, strug-
gled home, tail wagging.
Last week he'd recovered SUI
ficiently to dive again. This time
there was no snow on the rocks
below - but his master Will
liam Ziegler hopefully searched
for several days, and found the
dog.
Two-bits was badly bruised
again. Ziegler said he'd send
him to a farm to break him Of
his dangerous habit.

this case would allow the de-

MUSHROOM GROWTH
FOX INDUSTRY
This whole business has grown
almost from scratch to total
annual production of over 200
million pounds year. since the
start of the war. There were a
few vegetable driers in business
during the last war, but after
the war their business fell off
to nothing. They kept on exper-
imenting, however, and though
their products during the in
tervening 20 years met with
pretty complete consumer indif-
ference, they were ready with
improved processes w h en- the
shipping shortages of the pres
ent war created tremendous
demand for everything they
could turn out.
One big advantage OF the new
industry is that it permits year
round operation of the plant
instead of a mere short season
operation common in most can
neries. Since all the equipment
is basically the same, conversion
of dehydrator from handling
one product to another is in
most cases a matter Of only
hours.
In this way, a Minnesota
creamery association switches its
sprays from the production OF
dry skim milk to egg powder
and back again, several times a
week. In tunnel drying, the de-
hydratorS can shift from one
fruit and vegetable to another
as the various crops ripen.
Neatest trick of this whole
conversion business has been
performed by one Massachusetts
company which packs fish in
winter, vegetables in summer
with elaborate precautions tc
keep the fish taste out of the
vegetables.

WPB TO PROVIDE PLENTY
OF HOME CANNING JARS
BY BETTY MACDONALD
NEA STAFF Correspondent

Washington, March 30-Expect q
sharp drop in dried fruit point val
ues--so noticeable, in fact, that the
thrifty housewife can plan to put
tidy store of dried prunes and
such for leaner times ahead.
The present drop in dried fruits
is reassuring, proving that none of
the figures are fixed, and that the
ration people have their eyes on
the market and the need to keep
stock - especially more perishable
stock -- moving.
PLENTY OF JARS
Anticipating a record-breaking
canning season in American homes,
WPB has made arrangements for
manufacture Of 3,000,O00,000 new
closures Except the banned zinc
lids) 100000, 600 new Jars, twice as
many as last year, and 10000 pres
sure cookers which will each hold
seven one-quart jars. The new sup
ply, in addition to those held over
from last year, should take care Of
home canning for the season.
MORE APPLESAUCE
Home economists point to the
ample supply of fresh apples on
hand and urge housewives to buy
apples to put up as applesauce.
Most families they say, have enough
sugar to take care Of small
amount Of canning, especially in
"city" homes where the housewife
does very little baking and canning.
WAR AND WAX PAPER
Housewives are urged to conserve
all their wax paper against the
time when this handy commodity
may be very scarce. Wax, says WPB,
Is hard to obtain, and has many
important war uses.
SPRING, AND THE cows
The fluid milk flush season is
