BABY
By Lillian B. Storms

The pre-cooked special baby GER
.als have added vitamins and min
rails and are very nutritious. They
ire attractive to insects, much the
anne as whole wheat -four is more
ubject to insect infestation than
S plain white flour. Placed on a
,antry shelf with other cereals,
rou may find that insects will
cave the less nutritious foods in
preference for these more nutri-
ious ones. They should be stored
n a dry place, not too warm. Espe-
tally after the package has been
opened, it may be best to keep it
n the refrigerator.
The canned baby foods, also
canned evaporated milk, r steril-
zed and will keep almost indefi-
1itely before opening. All canned
foods should be stored in a cool,
Try place. Food in glass jars
should be stored in the dark be-
cause light destroys one of the
yitamins, ribofavin, very rapidly.
This also applies to milk in glass
bottles.
When baby first begins to eat
canned strained vegetables and
fruits, only part of the can may
be used at a meal. AS with can
ned milk, the can or jar has been
sterilized when the food was pack
I'd and is a perfectly safe con-
tainer. The top of the can should
De washed before opening, then
the unused portion may be left in
he container (either a tin or glass
iar), carefully covered and re-
frigerated.
If there is no refrigerator, do
lot attempt to keep canned milk
r baby foods after the can has
'een opened. Use for some other
member Of the family, as in a
reamed soup. Canned foods are
ooked foods and need the same
are and treatment as other cook
ID foods.

Lynn Says

Economy Tips: Ask for the
trimmings and bones when you
buy your meat. The fat can be
rendered and used as shortening.
The bones do well when sim
mered with vegetables to be used
as soup.
Save leftover gravy and use it
as stock for soup. You'll be de-
lighted with the rich flavor.
Mustard mixed with butter
makes a nice spread for sand
witches. It's especially good with
meat and cheese witches"
Leftover cereals can be mold
ed and served as dessert with
fruit or custard sauce. Or, they
can be combined with ground
meat for loaves or meat balls.
Keep leftover "dabs" of butter
in a covered container in the re-
frigerator and use for seasoning
vegetables or sauces.

are good when creamed and

On ~dress-up evenings in most

side about the quality Of harness
that goes underneath the feminine
finery seen by the outside world.
Has been ever since the War Pro-

somewhat more rugged combat use
than they would get in foundation

matronly hope that Army releases
Of large amounts Of cotton and rub

correct matters. Feminine anticipa

" publicized WPB statement to ths
effect that twoway stretch girdles
would be back by November.

The trouble with OPA pricing in
this reconversion period is literally
the same fault found in wartime
corhetry- no stretch.
In practically every field, apparel
automobiles, foods, gadgets, building
mater ials, that fact shows again and
again. Ali production costs are up,
especially labor costs, and the OPA
partially recognizes this. Yet man
ufacturers are not being permitted
to make those price adjustments
necessary to profitable business and
the sort Of volume production which
makes jogs.
ELASTICITY NEEDED
Until the government forces OPA
to add the sort Of elasticity that is
needed obth in feminine fashions and
the national economy, reconversion is
likely to be slow.
There is not much logis in deny
ing people things they did without
while victory was in the making.
Why stave off the prosperity that
comes when there is a demand for
goods, a willingness to make them,
money to buy them, and a grea.
need for the jobs those factors ere.

Only One Third Of
Residents Reported
On Personal Taxes

Only one-third of the business
men and other residents of Mon

make returns for personal taxes,
have yet filed with the county
tax assessor, it was said at that
office this morning.
1t was further stated that the
law empowers the assessor to
file returns for those persons who
do not do so themselves by
April l, and a provision of the
law sustains the right of the as
SCISSOR to make his own estimate
IN cases of that nature. Further,
dellnquentS will be obliged to
pay a penalty of 10 percent in
excess of the amount fixed by
the assessor.
Up to today 1867 applications
have been filed for homestead
exemptions, with about $50 more
owners of property eligible for
exemption to be heard from. If
filings are not made by April |,
then full taxes, as provided by
law, must be paid.

REVIEW ACTIVITIES CARRIED ON
in KEY WEST BY WELFARE WORKERS

In February of this year the
group of Key West citizens who
had formerly operated the Thrift
Shop, gave $188.37 to the State
Welfare Board to be used. in its
child welfare program. Miss
Eleanor Hursh, child welfare
worker, reports that this sum of
money has been very useful in
helping to develop a child well
fare program in Monroe County.
The salary and all expenses Of
the child welfare worker in Key
West are paid from federal funds
allOated to the state of Florida
for this purpose. All other funds
however, used to provide for the
needs of children must be raised
locally either from tax funds or
private contributions. County
Commissioners have. appropriated
$4,000 monthly and the City
Council $500 monthly to be
spent on children in Monroe
County. Miss Hursh pointed out
that although this $175.0O
month can be spent at the dis
erection of the State Welfare
Board, because it is tax funds,
the Board has been very careful
to use the money to provide for
children only those things which
could be clearly shown would
meet with the approval of an
overwhelming majority of the
taxpayers in Key West
For this reason the Board is
especially grateful for the sum
received from the Thrift Shop
group. Since it represented the
profits from an enterprise which
small coup of energetic woman
had fOstercd last year. 1t was
felt by the Board that d portion
Of the funds could b used to
provide a much needed small
library of technical books. About
$500 has been allocated for the
purchase Of periodicals and books
dealing with the problems of
children and current trends in
child care. When these books
arrive they will be available not
only to the workers of the State
Welfare Board but to any inter-
ested person in the community
working with children.
