YES!.Y0)tU MEAT SHORTAGES make sav .. ing fats harder these days. But there may be ways to save that you are missing. Won't you please . check suggestions below? Our country needs fats so urgently to help make medicines, explosives, soaps, synthetic rub ber and other essentials on the war and home fronts. FISH you're using more of it these days. Scrape every drop of grease from the pan in which you fry or broil it. SAUSAGES they're plentiful and yield lota of grease in the frying pan. (And if you parboil them first, don't forget to save the water and skim off the grease 0 - I UTILITY MEATS are good for stews and soups. Skim the grease as they cook. Chill them afterwards and scoop off the fat that hardens oa top. (Gravies too!) HOT DOGS you'll get at least a tablespoon or two of - grease from the cooking water. Even a teaspoon helps! FAT SCRAPS save them aH In a bowl in the icebox. Once a week melt them down and add them to the salvage can. AND BE SURI to keep the can right out where it's handy! Drop by drop, it will fill up faster than you think. Then rush it to your meat dealer and get those 2 red points and 4 cents for every pound of fat. Start today!
