Report to the Housewife

There are many suggestions for
eradicating the fungi-you can call
the Bureau of Home Economies of
the United States Department Of
Agriculture and obtain long list of
treatments, but we have found a
commercial product now on the
market to be very satisfactory, act
ing as an eradicator, and better still,
a preventative. We've mentioned
this solution before, but there have
been SO many SOS calls coming in
recently We thought "refresher"
would be in order. The solution
may be brushed, rubbed or sprayed
on the affected articles, and will re-
move all but the most severe traces,
at the same time "inoculating" the
piece against further attack. The
addition Of a few teaspoons to the
water used to sprinkle the wash be-
fore ironing will keep the laundry
from mildewing, also. It may be
used on leather, upholstery. wood
work, clothing and practically every
part OF the house. Further guards
against mildew are the little "de-
humidtfiers" to be found In local no
tions and housewares departments,
that are set in rooms or closets to
absorb excess moisture. Larger ones
come for Easements. And . big
help In . pinch is to leave the light
on In your closet with the door
tightly closed for several hours
always being sure that no garment
can touch the bulb from any angle.

Tomato Juice Why's

Most widely popular Of home
made juices Is that from tomatoes.
1t is easy to can by processing the
Jars of hot Juice in a boiling-water
bath. But home Gamers sometimes
have questions to ask, and here are
some put to home canning special
lists of the United States Department
Of Agriculture:
@. Why does my home-canned
tomato juice sometimes separate?
A. Some separation is normal be-
cause the pulp is heavier than the
light-colored juice so settles below
1t in the jar: The finer the sieve
used for straining the juice, the less
the pulp will settle. Too much or
too little heat may cause the solid
part of the tomatoes to settle, so
follow heating directions carefully.
If. pulp does settle, just shake the
jar before pouring out juice.
@. If tomato juice is packed hot,
why need 1t be processed in water
bath Gamer?
A. The chances of keeping are
much better. Bacteria or yeasts in
the air may get into the juice at
the time jars are filled, and If these
are not killed by further heating,
the juice may spoil.

Juice have as much food value as
tomatoes?
A. The vitamin C in Juice and
canned whole tomatoes is approx
mately the same. Some vitamin A
and other nutrients may be lost
when seeds and pulp are discarded.
@. Does heating the tomatoes be-
fore straining juice save vitamins?
A. Tests have shown that the
easiest way of preparing the juice
is the most saving of vitamin C..
This Is to simmer the tomatoes until
the juice begins to flow. Sieve while
the tomatoes are hot. Reheat just
to boiling. Then add a teaspoon of
salt per quart Of juice. If desired
Pour into hot jars at once and
process for Is minutes.
@. Does a metal mill or sieve used
in straining tomatoes destroy vita
min c, and should a cloth bag be
used?
A. For practical purposes a metal
juice extractor Is satisfactory unless
some copper or iron Is exposed. A
bag would hold back so much good
red pulp that the juice pressed out
would be weak and pale.

beans in enough water to cook them
until tender. Pour of excess water
and put in the tomatoes, which
should have enough liquid to con-
tinue the cooking without adding
more. Cook slowly as the tomatoes

loosen the skins. Season all with

SWEET PICKLE RECIPES.

(From Mrs. S. d. M, Washfngton. J
In answer to Mrs. C. N. MS re-
quest for sweet pickle recipes, I am
inclosing the ones have been using
Tor the past seven years and they are
very delicious. Sweet pickles improve
in flavor with age. Hope she enjoys
them as much as I do the RICH.
Watermelon Rind Pickle: Two
pounds prepared watermelon rind,
salt. water, l pint vinegar, pint
water additional, lemon, 2 pounds
sugar. l teaspoon whole allspice, l
teaspoon whole cloves, 3 inches stick
cinnamon.
To prepare rind, remove green
outer skin and inner pink meat /:
then cut into 1-inch lengths and
soak overnight in brine to cover.
Zone fourth cup salt to / quart
watero In morning, drain and rinse
In clear water; cook in water to
cover until tender enough to be
readily pierced by head of pin.
Combine vinegar, additional water,
thinly sliced lemon and spices
loosely tied in cheesecloth) and
boil minutes Add drained rind,
cook rapidly until clear. Pack in
sterilized jars with enough sirup to
completely cover pieces Of melon.
seal. Cantaloupe rind may be
picked in the same way.
Sweet Pickle Sirup Formula: Two
parts brown or granulated sugar,
part vinegar, q cup mixed picking
spices and inches stick cinnamon
to each quart vinegar used.
Tie spices loosely In cheesecloth.
For stronger flavor, whole spices
may be crushed with hammer.
Boil spices, sugar and vinegar to-
gether until sugar is dissolved; add
prepared fruit: cook gently until
clear. A sirup made with l quart
vinegar is sufficient for approx
mately pounds prepared fruit.
CThis formula can be used for
peaches. pears or applesD
Sweet Picked Peaches: Dip peaches
2 or 3 times into boiling water, then
into cold water; slip of skins.
Cook in pickle sirup until tender but
not broken. Turn into sterilized
jars. If desired, thicken sirup by
boiling down, then cover fruit with
1t, seal. Cling peaches are much
better for picking since they do not
mush as easily and the stone seems
to give them flavor. I usually peel
peaches, especially If not very ripe.
Sweet Picked Pears: Peel small
fruit and leave whole. peel and cut
larger fruit into halves. Proceed as
for picked peaches.
Sweet Picked Apples: Core, peel
and quarter apples. Cook very
gently, adding thinly peeled ring of
l lemon to pickle sirup.

difference), then set away in a
closet or basement to ferment for
three weeks. Your kraut is now
ready to cook. However, should
you wish to keep it longer 1t will
keep indefinitely.
I came into possession of this
recipe in a small town in Indiana
few years ago and have never
ceased marveling at the utter sim
plicity Of making kraut since. This
method of making it is very well
adapted to apartment living. There
is no odor while kraut is ferment-
ing such as you find in the crock
method. 1t enables you to put up
small quantities of cabbage at a
time-much smaller quantities than
can be utilized in the crock method
Also, every bit of the kraut stays
good. The crock method always
represents fair percentage of
spoiled top kraut.
