USE CAUTION IN BURNING
BRUSH

Some confusion seems to exist
among Maryland land owners, the
Forestry Department states, as to the
intent of that section of Regulation
Four which relates to the burning of
debris and brush. A number appear to
be under the impression that in the
spring and fall fire seasons, regard
less of where burning is done, there
must be constructed around the area
plowed fire line at least 10 feet
wide, free of all infiammable mater
ial. This is not the case. Such line
needs to be constructed only when
brush to be burned is within 200 feet
of woodland or inflaflmmable mater
ial. In case of brush or other debris
burned, for example, in the middle
of a cleared field, no such precaution
is necessary.
It is emphasized however, that in
all cases, regardless of where burning
takes place, no fire may be left unat-
tended until the last spark is out,
and that there must be on hand
eonugh tools to prevent its escape.
The proviso that, in the spring and
fall fire seasons, brush and other in
fiammable material can be burned
only between the hours of p. m.
and IL midnight, applies in all cases.

FOR THE DURATION AND
FOREVER

point in the war against Ger
many has been reached when a falter-
ing in the flow of supplies from this
country, even for so momentary Il
period as few days or weeks, could
Indefinitely delay victory. In other
words, it is hoped that the crisis has
arrived.
All through the war, fire preven-
the authorities have stressed the ne
cessity of guarding against fires in
war plants. In the beginning. when
the long pull toward victory was just
starting, they reminded us that
equipment and facilities destroyed by
fire jeopardized the lives of our fight
ing men. Weeks and months were re-
quired to replace factories.
What the fire prevention authori-
ties said then goes double today.
There is no longer time to spend
weeks and months reconstructing
burned out plants. When a war es-
tablismhent goes UP in smoke now,
it is very likely gone for the dura-
ton; and those whose lives depended
upon it's production are gone forever.

Long, Slow Cooking
TENDERNESS Wild Game

Too often the feast of a wild bird
or animal is disappointing because
the meat is tough and stringy. AS
many cooks have learned, the ordi-
nary methods used on domestic
meats will not bring out the best
flavor in wild game.
Long, slow, moist cooking that ten
derizes less tender meats is recon-
mended for either wild bird or ami
NAL. It's best to cook the game at
low temperatures in covered pan.
Wild meat can perhaps be further
tenderized by basting it with or
ange juice, the acid of which seems
to break down the tissues and makes
the meat more tender.
The older game should be sepa-
rated from the young animals and
cooked at different times, since they
will require longer cooking. The old
er ones can be tenderized somewhat
if they are permitted to age for sew
eral days and are then parboiled be-
fore cooking.

HOUSEWIVES MUST GET
CANNING SUGAR ALLOTMENT
FROM RATION BOARDS

The OPA says there will be enough
sugar to preserve as much fruit as
was actually put up in our homes
last year. The same amount of su-
gar (700,000 tons) has been set aside
this year for home canning as was
set aside last year. Last year, how
ever, 100000 tons more sugar than
the total amount allocated for home
canning was bought by housewives.
A large part of this sugar was bought
witk Stamp 40, the home canning
stamp, and much of it was used for
ordinary household purposes. This
years total sugar supply is smaller
than it was in 1914. If any over-is-
suance of canning sugar were allow
ed, it would have to come out of the
amount allowed for other home use
In 1916 NO stamps will be validated
for canning sugar. Housewives will
be given sugar coupons for home can
ming by their local boards. Each
housewives home canning sugar al
lotment will be based on the amount
of canning she did last year and the
amount she plans to do this year She
will be allowed up to a maximum of
20 pounds per person, or 16O pounds
to single family, even though the
family may contain more than eight
persons.

Bring Out Better
Points in Dressing
Signal Corps Photo


Most women wish their clothing
to improve their appearance, cover
up defects and bring out good points.
IF this is the consumers desire. then
attention in shopping should be CEN
tered on selecting garments that
nave lines and material which en-
phasize the most attractive features
while camoufa ging ones deviations
from the ideal in feminine shape,
To look ones best, the lines, the
width and the length of dress all
must be in good relation to ones
igure.
Along with wishing to look as at
tractive as possible, one usually
desires to feel in fashion and to
know that the general lines Of the
garment conform with the present
styles. Simplicity, smoothness of fit,
a surprise line or detail all may
contrive to create quality OF
smartness.
Of course, nowadays women are
particularly anxious that clothing
give economic as well as personal
satisfaction. That dresses should
wear as long as desired and should
retain their shape with minimum
of pressing are two primary de-
mandS many women.

Rinse Clothes

Many a good wash lady sights the
job of rinsing and then wonders why
the clothes don't look clean. Soap
left in fabric may make it dingy,
yellow or even brownish in streaks
and may eventually weaken the f.
bers. Ideal for rinsing is an abun-
dant supply of hot soft water. Home
management specialists in tests
have shown that rinse water about
as hot as the wash water removes
soap and loosens dirt most easily.
Hot water has the advantage of soft
ening fabric, opening the weave, and
dissolving soap quickly. When
clothes go from a hot wash
water to cold rinse, the fabric
contracts and may actually hold in
some soap and dirt. Even lukewarm
water is better for, rinsing than cold
water. Rinse until the water shows
no trace of soapiness.

Soften Water

Conserve soap and get snowier
washes by softening the water first
unless you're fortunate enough to
live in soft water locality. Hard
water requires extra soap for good

SCHOOLS KEPT DOORS OPEN

DR.. Kenneth Mcfarland, Superin-
tendent of the Public Schools OF To-
peka, Kans., sets down his thoughts
regarding the generation that has
never seen normal economic year
that they could remember" His brief
and telling article appears in the
Journal of the South Dakota Educa-

1t is quoted here in part:
In all their lives they had never
seen a time when they had just rea-
sonable good chance of getting a
pretty god job. You and l know that
was the situation that prevailed all
over America in the decade preceding
the lend-lease boom of 1941. =. The
government gave them jobs at $2l
per month at the same time the boom
was getting under way.
How about some of the older fel-
lows who had good jobs all through
the lush 192O's, and because of SEN
iority held on to all the good jobs
through the 193O's? . A great
many of them took jobs-not at $21
a month, but at $21 per day lin
1941l and great number of them
called the young people "softies.' -
Now let me tell you about these
softies. facing situations which
call for gallantry and courage such
as Americans have never had to pro
duce before. They are all over the
world today defending democracy OIL

iod, when the door to every othel

continued to provide eight, ten
