Registrations will be held from 10 a. m. to 5:30 p. m. in the following locations: Woodruff, February 22. Garden City, February 23. Laketown, February 24th. Randolph, February Registration for war ration book Two to be used for point rationing of processed foods, beginning March 1, will War nation be a simple procedure. book One with a consumers declaration showing the amount of canned goods on hand is all that is necessary. One member may register for the whole family. Consumers declaration blanks will be aailable at registration sites and at the board headquarters, it was stated, but Mr. Cox recommended that the form appearing elsewhere in this paiper be clipped, and used for this purpose. Beginng on February 21, sales of processed foods to be rationed will be frozen until rationing begins March 1st. Care in filling out the consumers declaration form was emphasized by Mr, Cox. In addition to showing the amount of commercially canned goods on hand February 21st, it calls for a statement of the amount of coffee owned by the registrant on November 28 when coffee rationing was started. In the case of coffee, the net figure is arrived at by taking the total number of pounds on hand on November 28 and deducting one pound for each person whose age is stated as 14 years or oder on war ration book One. A amendment makes persons whose age is shown on the book as 14, eligible to buy coffee instead of 15 as formerly. Figuring the declaration on canned goods is slighttly more involved since it will not be necessary for the housewife to include all cans, bottles and jars containing less than 8 ounces, and nce she will be permitted to retain 5 cans for each person in the family. This "pantry census must include all commercially canned fruits (including spiced), canned vegetables, canned fruit and vegetable juices, canned soups, chili sauce and catsup. The following need not be counted or declared : canned olives, canned meat, fish, pickles, relish, jellies, jams, and preserves, spaghetti, macaroni and noodles, or home canned goods. Housewives may find it convenient to make this count on Sunday, February 21, by spreading their pantry supplies on the kitchen table and eliminating immediately all of the excluded items. Ilhe smaller cans containing less than then 3 ounces, such as baby foods, should be put back on the shelf. By counting out 5 cans for each member of the family from the remainder and restoring them to the shelves, the hou33 wife will have left the exact number of containers that she must state on the consumers declaration sheet Mr. Cox emphasized that home preserved products should not be declared. nt WOODRUFF NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Glen Cornia of Evanston were town visitors Monday.
