FLORIDA CHILDREN
BANNED FROM N, G..

Jacksonville, Fla.-Dr. Wilson
Sowder, Florida State health Of
ficer, said that he thought the
quarantine of Florida children by
North Carolina health officers
was unnecessary"
On June 3, the North Carolina
Board of Health ordered the
quarantine of all children coming
from Florida for a period of two
weeks and restricted them from
Summer camps due to the out
break of infantile paralysis in
Florida.
SoWder said that there had
been approximately $50 cases OF
polio in the State since January
l, "a large majority of which are
recovering" He explained that
the disease was not considered to
be of epidemic proportions unless
1t strikes one person in every
1000 population.
Most of the cases of polio have
occurred in the southeast coastal
section of Florida. The Miami
area has reported some g. vic
tins.
I'VE have received larg, num-
Der of telephone calls and mes
sages from persons in that area,
Sowder reported. ''They are very
much upset by North Cardinals
action"
He said that the outbreak of

Moke II With Moshed Potatoes


Mashed potatoes can pinch-hit for
bread or flour in many familiar
dishes, thus saving wheat for starv-
ing people overseas and inciden-
tally providing variety in family
meals. The following recipes show
how to do it:
Shepherd Pie: For a pie to serve
6 people, allow about 2 cups OF sea-
soned mashed potato. Fill a baking
dish about tWo-thirds full OF hot
meat stew. Qf too full, it will boil
over). Cover the stew with mashed
potato, leaving a few openings for
steam to escape. Place in a hot oven
(400 degrees Fahrenheit) for about
Is minutes until thee rust browns
lightly.
Eggs Boxed In Pototo Cups: Shape
seasoned mashed potato into balls,
using about one-third for each ball.
Place balls on a creased baking
sheet. With spoon press center OF
ball to form into cup shape. Drop an
egg into each cup. Season with salt
and pepper. Bake in a slow oven
(325 degrees) for 20 minutes, or un-
til egg is as firm as desired.

sqbqdilla For Gmden insects

Home gardeners, new contro
for some of the garden bugs thai
have been chewing up your vege'
tables, is now available.
A 20 percent sabadilla dust will
give good control of the harlequin
cabbage bug, squash bug, leaf footed
bug, southern stink bug and blister
beetle. These are all bugs that have
been hard to control because Of their
size and feeding habits.
This dust is made from seed of a
lily plant and is not poisonous. 1t is
not injurious to the plant. 1t acts as
a contact poison and will kill the
insect just as soon as it is busted
on it.

you pour the fat from your fryin,
pan or roaster down the kitcher
drain? Or put it in the garbage pail
Be ashamed, if you did For whea
and food fats and oils are the pro
ducts we're asked to be especially
saving with during the present fooc
emergency.
Missisippi's emergency food pro
gram calls for 40 per cent reduc
ton in the use of wheat product:
and a 20 per cent reduction in the
use of food fats and oils. We can all
help reach these goals. We are asked
to save one slice of bread or its
equivalent at every meal and to use
at least half pound less of fats and
oils each month.
There are three ways we can help
save this bread.
One is to prevent waste of bread
and biscuit. 1t is estimated that five
per cent or one slice of every loaf
of bread every day goes into some
body's garbage.
Another way to save is to use less
bread and biscuit at each meal. Try
using potatoes in place of bread. A
small serving will give you the same
food value as slice of bread.
Cornbread has always been one of
the mainstays in Mississippi diets.
During this emergency, try using
it more often in the place of wheat
bread. Use oats more often, too. A
serving of oatmeal equals two slices
of bread in food value. Use fruits
and other desserts in place Of pas
tries and cakes.
The third way to serve wheat is to
use less wheat cereals and other
wheat products.
You housewives can contribute to
food fat conservation by preventing
small everyday wastes-the oil that
runs over the side of the can or is
left in the salad bowl. the cooking
fat not scraped out carefully when
the container is discarded, left in the
frying pan, or spoiled by careless
cooking or improper storage.
Give more attention to scraping
dishes, pans and containers Of fat.
A uninterrupted dish scraper of the
type now selling again at kitchen
supply counters is one Of the best
utensils for removing that last bit of
fat-or any other food. Fat that gets
into the dish water and goes down
the drain does no one any good. In
fact, it may do harm by stopping up
drain pipes.
Make better use Of meat drippings
for cooking and seasoning food.
Serve fewer fried foods. Save and
reuse fats and oils for cooking pur-
poses. Render excess fats on meats
and save bacon grease for cooking
purposes. Salvage all fats that can
not be reused and turn them in to
your butcher or grocer. Go easy on
oils and salad dressings.
Remnants of cooking fat in cans
should be melted down and poured
out for use before the can is thrown
away. The last drop of oil should be
extracted from bottles. Pan drip
pings left from cooking meat should
be scraped out, and the part that has
Drowned on" loosened by heating
with little water and then saved
for gravy, soup or sauces. Too often
these flavorful drippings 60 into the
dish-pan rather than the gravy bowl.
Much fat is wasted by careless
cooking. Once fat has been scorched,
overheated, or allowed to become
rancid, it is good for nothing but
soap making. In frying, heat should
always be carefully watched to pre-
The Lexington advertiser., 1946-04-18

from turning rancid or becoming
moldy, keep it dry, cold and covered
in a dark place. Keep it in the re-
frigerator, if possible.
Careless measurements, hit-and-
miss methods, and unreliable recipes
all may contribute to fat waste. A
carelessly made cake that turns out
an unappetizing failure, for example,
is waste not only of fat but of
precious flour and sugar.
