W a r Time Sweeteners MERICA has several excellent war time sweet­ eners that will be used largely during the shortage in the sugar supply. They are maple sugar, *yrups, honey and molasses and may be used in preparing des­ serts and other dishes requiring sweetening. When a cup of syrup or honey is used to replace a cup of sugar the liquid in the recipes should be decreased one-fourth. One-third of a cupful of sugar is equivalent to one-third of a cup of honey, about one- half cup of syrup and about one-half cup of com sugar. One-fourth of a cup of sugar is equal to about one-half cup of syrup or one-third cup of com sugar. One table­ spoon of sugar is equal to one tablespoon of honey, about one and one-half tablespoons of syrup and one and one- third tablespoons of corn sugar. Sugar may be saved by the use of raisins, dates, flgs, dried pears and fruit pastes used on the breakfast cereals. Fruit marmalades, butters and jellies should be used to take the place of the ordinary sweetening at a meal and not as accessories to it. Fruits may be preserved without sugar. It may be added when sugar is more plentiful. Preserving demands this year a thin syrup Instead of a heavy syrup. If sugar is used one-half of the amount may be replaced by another sweetener. Drying is a means of preserving (without sugar) ap­ ples, cherries, strawberries and black caps. When ready to use they may have added the needed sugar in the form of a syrup. Wrhen sugar is more plentiful fruit juices may be made into jellies or may be used as fruit juices with or without sugar, as beverages, fruit gelatins and frozen desserts. Fresh fruits supply the place of sugar in the diet. They should be used freely. Desserts where sugar is scarce may be made of gelatins, junkets, custards, puddings and cakes. “ THE CLftOEK GARRAGE” ANO MACHINE SHOP ACETYLENE WELDING it A’.'D BRAZING I CYhRHALL CARS I iX FORDS All Kinds of Repairing done at Reasonqblu Rates Battery Charging.
