Will you hold a
FAT- SALVAGE BEE
for your country?
i. .in.
HERE IN AMERICA, when a neighbor
needs help, it has always been the custom
for all the folks to pitch in and give him
a hand. Many a harvest would have been
lost without the help of a husking bee.
YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS a fat-salvage
bee right now! Millions of tons of fat have
been used up to supply the thousands of
battlefield and home-front needs in this
war. And there's still a lot of war aheadt
A PLEA TO EVERY WOMAN ! Our country is calling on you, the women in small
cities and towns and on the farms, to save every drop of used fat. Your used fats are
desperately needed to meet our country's requirements.
So scrape all pans and roasters. Skim soups and gravies. Keep your used fats in
a tin can any kind will do. Save meat trimmings and plat scrapings in a bowl;
melt them down and add the liquid fat to your can.
When the salvage can is full, take it to your butcher. He'll give you 2 red points
and up to four cents for every pound. If you have any difficulty turning in your used
fats, call your Home Demonstration or County Agent.
Needed this year: 100,000,000 more pounds of used fats
