Cabbages Go
To Armed Men

Not all of Imperial Valleys cab
bages will be consumed in Ameri-
can households. Much of the prod
uet will be dshydrated and sent to
United States armed forces abroad
and to our allies. Some will he
served to the armed forces in this
country. A small amou.t Will be
used to repleniSh the kraut supply
which is rather low at this time,
But shat still leaves a big balance
to be incorporated into wartime
menus for the home front. Home
makers who use cabbage will be
taking pressure off less plentiful
foods and at the same time will be
giving their families a palatable
combination of necessary vitamins
and minerals
81 Cabbage is rich in Vitamin c
and contains scme of the B vita
nirs. The new green cabbage also
adds Vitamin A, as well as the
minerals-calcium iron and phos-
phorus-to that list For food value,
cabbage is best raw. IF it. is cooked,
meat or milk can be added for va
riety.

Operator Has Faith in Future;
Will Reclaim Wide Areas

people understand rice growing
and its problems, especially as to
irrigation and ground preparation
for seeding.
MI. Hofmann, who concurred with
Mr.. Kraus, also pointed out that
"by developing a rice industry in
Imperial Valley, it has been neces-
sary to add more than 100 miles
of much needed drainage. which is
tremendous asset TO the valley,
Approximately 1900 acres of land
have been reclaimed through rice
paintings and are back on the
county tax lists.
Imperial valleys rice, in quail
ity, compares favorably with the
hest rice grown in the producing
areas of the world, and with the
mill and warehouse here, this
county is ready to become ore Of
the rice bowls of the nation If
greater attention are given the
benefits derived from this indus
try, Mr.. Hofnlann believed.

Food Conference
Attendants See
Canning Process

During the national community
food preservation conference held
in Illinois early his year, the main
conferences We conducted at Pc
oria with t. representatives going
TO the cannery at Pekin. Ill, for
actual practice in operating cam
ming equipment
This national food conference was
sponsored by the Office of Distri-
button, Extension Service and the
Office of Education in the WA.
It brought together representatives
of the various agencies and groups
interested in community food pres
ervation in order TO discuss pro-
gram planning. In addition, it actC-
ally trained those attending to con-
duct similar workshops at regional
and state levels.
The conference group discussed
the need of organized effort for
directing programs on a statewide
basis for the purpose of giving full
coverage to all communities, to OBJ
tam the proper type OF equipment,
and the hest arrangement for max
imum production in any one unit.
Five universities represented at the
conference already have taken steps
to establish cannerieS on their cam
puses where supervisors of COM
munity canneries as we'll as stu
dents at the universities can obtain
training in setting up and operat-
ing centers.
Dean Chapman Of the University
of Georgia, ore of the speakers,
told that community food preserva-
tion started 16 years ago in Georgia.
He stated that there are now more
than SEQ centers in operation in
that state. Last year they were used
by cna-third of all the families in
the state He pointed out that food
preservation in the home is thought
of as a wcman'S work. In commu-
nifty canreries, however, the whole
family participates as was shown
in q recent Georgia survey-5o per
cent of the work was done by
women. IS per cent by men, and IS
pr cent by children. Thus the cam
ming burden is lifted from the
honemaker's shoulders, and fami-
lies of a whole neighborhood join
in q common effort.

Rice Exported
To Many Lands

If Valley rice growers and process
sors could follow the travels of
some of the crop they would, in
decd, be world travellers. Imperial
rice, along with the crop from
other areas, is not cnly supplying
the needs of the United States
armed forces and the home front,
bu. exporting rice to Canada, Cuba,
the Caribbean defense zones. Ha-
Waii, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Russia
and other friendly nations.
The civilian share of rice will be
about six pounds per person during
1914, slightly less than the per cap
ita consumption during recent
years. This means that civilians
will have about 100000 100-pound
bags, or about AZ per cent of the
total supply of milled rice. The mil
itary forces and war Services have
been allocated 6.3 per cent of the
supply. Another IS per cent of the
crop will go to our territories, al
lies, friendly nations and liberated
areas to offset draStically curtailed
supplies from principal rice-grow-
ing areas of the world. In prewar
days. China. India, Burma and
Thailand contributed the large por-
ton of the worlds rice supply. Even
in 1912 only little more than
per cent of the world production
of rice was from the United States.
