Show ' i DON'T WASTE ' ' This was seen recently on the pan-. pan-. I try shelves of a patriotic but thought-I thought-I less woman: One quart can with about j . a cupful of chow chow in it, no longer fit to cat, and one jelly glass with n t few spoonfuls of jelly left to dry up 5 and be wasted ! Are they on your pan -i ' try shelf? 1 1. This may have been a common sight i 1 a few years ago wheh all ate what we a wanted and threw the rest out, but i now when every spoonful of food must be put to use to save humanity not even a drop of jelly can bo wasted, i i The housekeeper argues that she I :i canned so much fruit and vegetables, she just couldn't find enough pint cans and small jelly and jam glasses. Her family is so small they grow tired of Ione kind of chow chow or sauce or vegetable before the can is used up, and just a. little a very little is wasted each time, s Here are a few hints that will help. I Because your family is small you will undoubtedly open the pint cans first. J f This will leaye small empty cans in (which you can recan nny left over 1 ,Hrult or vegetable you think your fnm- lly will tire of before it Is used. Or f-U'ou might carry over a bowl of toma- Itoes or peaches to your neighbor when you havo to open a two quart can. Some day she will return, perhaps, '""( - 'with a bowl of corn which she is not I anxious to use at once. I Save tho spoonfuls. They are worth i it. |
