HOME KC'OXOMICS. 4. : 4 4 ? ! ! ; l Every housewife should see to it thnt there is plenty of canned fruit for the coming winter months. Can fruit now. Why? Because Canning saves the crops. ' Canning saves transportation. Canting saves labor. Canning builds up home reserves. We cun afford to waste nothing. Slow On Suyar Why? Because German submarines sunk sugar. German submarines sunk sugar boats. Boats have been released to help feed Belgium. Germans have rendered useless the sugar beet factories of Northern France. Our own crop of sugar is smaller than anticipated. Are you aVgood provider" Mrs. Housekeeper? Then full steam ahead on canning. Never mind the shortage r of sugar. Take care of the fruit now and the future will take care of it self. Who says you need sugar for can ding? You dont! Save Sugar la Canning. ' Sugar is not needed as a preserva tive if fruit is properly sterilized and sealed. By canning we can get along without the use of heavy syrups and thus save sugar. Fruit Juice Fruit juices can ho bot tled without sugar and used as fruit drinks, in jelly desserts, pudding sauces, and ice creams. -. - Directions for making fruit juices: Prepare fruit, cook until soft, anil strain. 'Boil the strained juice' for fivo minutes and pour, it iritu jars or glass bottles that have been sterilized by boiling for 15 minutes, fijling the jars to overflowing. Seal the jars im mediately. Stopper the bottles with corks sterilized in the same manner as the bottles, and mnke air tight seal by dipping the cork and the lip of the bottle into hot paraffin. When sugar is more plentiful, fruit juices may be made into jells'. . Fruit Leather Use in place pf can-' dy. Concentrate fruit juices fiy boil ing them over direct heat, then by drying them in the top of a double boiler or in a moderate oven. Dry the leather in thin sheets, sprinkle granulated sugar over the surface and roll like jelly rolls, then cut them across; or dry it in a sheet three-quarters of an inch thick, and cut it in cubes. In cither of these forms the leather makes a tempting confection It should be stored in air-tight con tainers or in a dry place. Leather may also be cooked up with water and made into fruit juice, or it may be added to watery fruits to help supply sugar and pectin for making juicer and jellies. Leather are also m'ide from un sweetened or slightly sweetened fruit pulp. Peach leather is unsweetened i peach marmalade, dried in the oven sprinkled with sugar, rolled and cut Dried Fruits Apples, peaches cherries, prunes, apricots, the dessert Or sweet varieties of pe'ars, black cav raspberries, purple canes, in some cas es blackberries and "strawberries may be dried for home use. Fruits that are dried with the skins on should be dipped by means of r wire basket or a piece of cheese-cloth into a solution of lye made in the pro portion of one cupful of concentrated lye to four gallon:', of water. Thej should then be rinsed two or three times in clenr water. The lyeperfo rates the skins and thus facilitates evaporation; moreover, it destroys micro-organisms that might cause spoilage. Once the drying has been started, i1 should be carried on continuously tc completion, generally with a gradual increasing heat as more and more water is lost. Dried products must be stored in a dry place to prevent the development of moulds nnd weevils. They must be carefully protected from flie3. Mos' dried fruits can be stored in glass jars, crocks, or tin boxes, and seuler Dried apples mny be stored in heavy twilled cotton bags if they are kept ir, a very dry place. Drying In the Kitchen Stove. A very slow oven may be used foi diying fruits and vegetables spread on papers or on large platters or sheets of metal. There is a danger of scorching the product if the fire is not carefullv controlled. "The over eloor should" be left slightly open ; aflow a circulation of air to carry off the moisture set free by evaporation Any piece of home-made apparatus that provides means for free circula tion of air and for regulating the tern peraturc is likely to prove satisfac tory. ' - If ' the dried- fruit is to be stewed for sauce, no sugar should be addcH before the drying; but if it is to be used in cakes, breads, breakfast cereal puddings or as a confection, a small amount of sugar sprinkled over the layers of fruit when it is prepared for . drying will improve the flavor. j lu siiAM) and -viri:. i'i Mrs".
