Small oranges are a better buy for
the family's breakfast juice, both in
price and in uality, han big oranges.
Orange growers know that small oranges
are richer and better-flavored than large
oranges, but this is not generally APP
preciated by the consuming public. The
horticulturists say that if juice quality
alone were the guide to price, the
smaller fruit would cost more than the

Worsted Wisdom

Worsted Wisdom
With the Army stepping up it's need
for wool worsteds during the next five
months, patriotic civilian worsteds-top-
coats and men suits in particular-will
be staying on the job as long as pos
sible to saw wool and labor man-hours.
''othing specialists of the u. S. De-
partment of Agriculture offer these sug-
gesuors to help make a coat or suit
wear longer:
Give The brush off-and the air:
Brush wool clothes often, in the direct
ion Of the grain of the cloth, inside
Ind out, AM ii and around pockets and
cuffs. Air them occasionally-outdoors
when weather permits.
Hang it straight: Save the press by
putting clothes OIL hanger as soon as
removed. If lacking a trouser hanger
or wooden hanger with cross bar, fold
e piece of heavy cardboard over a wire
anger to hold trousers.
Keep it clean: Regular cleaning be-
fore clothes become badly soiled length
en- wear. Before pressing clothes at
home, remove spots-a warm iron may
"set" them so they will never come out.
Steam press with a moderately hot iron
too hot ar iron may scortch ever
through a pressing cloth.
Protect from pests: Winter is not a
closed season for clothes moths or car
pet beetles, so play safe by using moth
balls, flakes, or crystals-and keep stor-
ed woods sealed in paper or alright
boxes, chests or closets.
Put in achievements: New coats or
suits, or good ones taken out of moth
balls in readiness for returning service

Victory Gardeners

Victory Gardeners
The call to all Victory Gardeners is
to keep up your good work in 1945. The
War Food Administration says that
gardens will be just as necessary in 1916
as they were in 1914.
A few months ago when the Allied
armies were sweeping across France at
a rapid rate, many assumed thu the
war would be over by Christmas. At
that time there was some doubt about
the need for a full scale Victory Gar
den program in 1945. This gave rise
to rumors that the Government had lost
interest in Victory Gardens. Any doubt
about the need for gardens has been
cleared up by the events of the last 8
months.
A survey by the Department Of Agri-
culture estimates that there were 1874
million gardens grown in 1914. About
6 million of these were on farms and
the others were in towns and cities and
their suburbs. The survey showed that
SO percent of all farm homes had gar
dens, and A percent of urban homes
had gardens. Victory Gardeners must
not let up as long as soldiers are fight
ing.
On the postman's calendar the seed
catalogs follow the Christmas mail and
arrive with the new year. On the gar
dener's calendar, seed catalog time
should be the time for planning the gar
den and ordering seeds and other neces-
harry supplies.
This year supplies of vegetable seeds
promise to be adquate for all Victory
Gardens. Favorable weather last year
in areas where seeds are grown COM
mercially resulted in a bumper crop.
However gardeners are advised to order
their heeds as soon as possible. Short
age Of help may mean a delay in orders
that arrive in a rush at the eleventh
hour.
AS for fertilizer, supplies though not
quite SO large as last year are still
large enough to meet Victory garden
needs. The same grades used in 1914
for various parth of the country will
be on the market again this year.
Iinsecticide supplies will be about a.
large this year as last. Rotenone. ont
of the most popular insecticides TO-
busting gardens is in about the sam
supply as last year. Many gardener
who waited to buy rotenone last yea
until flea beetles and bean beetles hat
actually arrived had to use cryolite in
stead because stores had run out o.
insecticides. Gardeners will therefore b,
wise to buy the insecticide they neee
early.
A good rule for Victory gardeners this
year is: Buy supplies early but blu!
more than you need.

Set the vessel of elabber in a vessel
Of lukewarm water on the back of stove
and allow clabber to get warm. Cut the
clabber crosswise in blocks about one
half inch to / inch across and stir
gently to separate whey from curd.
Strain through damp, clean cloth, or a
double mesh vegetable strainer, remov-
ing all whey possible. Put the curd in
a bowl, and mix in the salt and enough
thick cream to make it soft and creamy.
Cottage cheese should be of large gran

145l, Making Cottage Cheese in the
Home" will give you additional infor-
nation on cottage cheese making.
Cottage cheese is quick and easy to
use in a great variety of dishes from
the first course to salad and dessert.
Because of its bland flavor, it COM
bines well with many different foods
and seasoning. Too often American
cooks have seen this cheese only as
something to dab on lettuce and serve
as salad.
Using cottage cheese for main dishes
calls for skillful seasoning with onion
herbs like parsley and sage, chopped
pimiento, green pepper and celery, OIL
tomato sauce. For added flavor and
food value, use chopped nuts, peanut
butter, egg and a little oil or fat. The
cheese itself needs no cooking, only
heating for hot dishes, but other in.
gradients with it may need some cook.
ing. Avoid long cooking or high heat
which toughens the curds and ma!

Naval Reserve PLAYED
Big Role in Victory,

BALTIMORE, Dec. 29.-Comdr
John D. Bulkeley, hero of "They
Were Expendable," and Mediter-
ranean destroyer actions-and a
Naval Academy raduate-credits
the Naval Reserve with a big part
in winning the war.
Take my present ship, the de-
stroyer Stribling," he said at dim
ner yesterday. With the excep-
ton of myself, the officers are 100
per cent reserve, and they're doing
a magnificent job. A large part
of the enlisted complement is also
reserve, and they're putting out the
same kind of performance.
That doesn't mean I want to take
any credit away from my brothers
of the Naval Academy. After all,
it was the professional officers who
set the high standards that won
the war for us.
But the reserves brought to the
Navy a fresh viewpoint on many
subjects that was badly needed. 1t
was the result of their varied ex-
perience in civil life.
During my tour of duty with
PIT boats" said the man who wears
the Congressional Medal of Honor
for the epic exploits of his motor
torpedo boat squadron just after
the outbreak of war in the Philip
pines, Il was surrounded by re-
serves, and not necessarily by my

But grew to respect them
tremendously, and since then, on

and my new ship, the Stribling,
which is now undergoing shakedown
training, have had them work.

Il don't know what success the

Spain Takes Stand

BY the Associated Press,


MADRID, Dec. 29.-The Spanish

Spain would not tolerate "interfer-

affairs"
The statement, issued by Francisco
Frances council of ministers, ap-
parently was in answer to a pro-
Jected meeting of the United States,
France and Britain to review their
relations with Spain.
The communique said Spain stood
ready to isolate itself" from coun-
tries which have used her as a
":lightning rod to draw off internal
storms, and accused Communists
OF waging a Campaign of defama-
ton" to smear the Franco govern
ment.
Both the Allies and the Axis had
planned during the war to violate
SPANS neutrality, the statement
said, but these Vaccinations" were
defeated by her firm, gentlemanly"
foreign policy.
1T is being discovered by official
statements of chancellories and
published documents that notwith-
standing the pacific and neutral
position of Spain, there existed
projects on both belligerent sides
to violate the neutrality of Spain.

Happier days are coming for
housewives who find food shopping
a drudgery.
This is a prediction of F. L. Thom-
sen, head of the Agriculture De-
partment's Division of Marketing
and Transportation Research.
He says that within 10 years, food
stores will carry a wide choice of
blue plate" lunches or dinners
complete with baked goods and
dessert.
Preparation" he explains. will
involve only a pause during the
housewives reading Of the evening
paper. Clearing the table and wash
ing the dishes may consist merely of
bundling up the leftovers and paper
utensils in the paper tablecloth and
dumping it in the garbage can"
Mr.. Thomson says I'VE may well
live to see the day when such pres
emily neW-fangled devices as auto
matte electric diShWashers are old
fashioned and outmoded."
In views set forth in a depart
ment report on prospective tech
nological developments in agricul-
tural marketing, Mr.. Thomson says
