IT OE, EASY, SURE Dry In a- Is a process within the reach of every American household. It ia simple, easy and- sure. It in volves little or no expense and com paratively little time. -A house keeper may conduct drying opera- tlona and entertain her afternoon tea guests atone and tba same time. All she need do Is to make an occa sional visit to her kitchen or ber out door dryer to watch the tempera ture to which tha food Is exposed. In this way she may provide for the winter aeeds of her. household with out sacrificing present enjoyment There haa never been a time, when drying waa aa vital as this year. The war makes food thrift imperative. Tha production of foodstuffs will be unusually abundant because of the wide-spread planting of food gar dens brought about by the campaign of the food garden commission. Not less than two million of these gar dens are now thriving. Nature will yield more vegetables than the peo ple can consume during the summer. To save the .surplus is a national need. Because of the European .sit uation this need ibecomes Interna tional as well.. Tin -cans are scarce. ' This has forced a run on the glass jar supply, a run as. urgent aa one on a bank In time of panic Glass jars have already advanced In price. This con dition Increases the importance of drying on a national scale. The only way to bring, this about Is for every household to do Its share. . Food stuffs should be dried in every home and In a larger way in every com munity.' Groups of. families should form community drying clubs.' ' By doing this, they can buy highly ef ficient apparatus at, slight Individual COSt., i ' Dried vegetables snd fruits are ss good as those which are fresh., The drying robs them of none of their flavor or. food value. A big saving In the, cost of. living can be made by drying vegetables and fruits dur ing the summer season, for the rea son, that the food products are obtained- at the time of lowest cost and are, ready for use at the time of winter's highest cost.
