PAGE SEVEN Every Housewife Is Invited to Enjoy Three-Day Cooking School SPOILING OF FOOD y Tht fiveran American family lose approximately 106 each year In food wtaloh apolla becauM of the. lack of proper facilities for preservation, it was asserted by Miss Eitelln Dorgan, director of home economics for the California Oregon Power company. "Statistlca which we have Just re ceived from Washington and which are based on the most conservative estimates made by economic experts, ihow that the average family spends j about $700 a year for food," Mtas Dorgan said. "The government survey states that of this amount 15 per cent, or 9106, la lost thruogh spoil- A Foods spoil quickly, particularly when Adequate refrigeration la lack ing. In many instances food may look and taste good; nevertheless, there lurks In these foods, unless they have been kept in a proper temperature, dangerous bacteria, germs that breed colds and coughs and core throats. In a few hours if foods are kept In a temperature of 50 degrees or above, these germs multiply many times. Much of the sickness in the Ameri can home today Is caused by the con sumption of foods contaminated thru Improper refrigeration. "Health authorities in all parts of the world have been attempting for many years to educate housewives to the necessity of the right kind of ref rigors 'ion because these savants know oi the peril hidden in Improp erly preserved food and know that such foodstuffs have taken a huge toll. "In addition to the health angle, there are other benefits to be derived from proper refrigeration. The correct kind of refrigeration la economical; It prevents food spoilage and enables the housewife to use all leftovers in various ways. There are hundreds or tempting meals that can be served with leftover food which has been properly preserved." Industry Delivers Electric Service Of Highest Class Denunciations of the electric In dustry, on the ground that It Is "big business," should not cause much of a furore In the public mind. The achievement of the industry has been. Is, and will be, largely the result of Its size. Thirty years ago the con turner bought electricity at a high rate from a small local concern. Serv ice was uncertain in the extreme, and when the plant shut down every now and then for a day or so It was con sidered inevitable. Farm and railroad electrification, like electric labor-saving devices, were unknown. Now, for a fraction of the price then charged, we get the highest pos sible standards of electric service. Even short Interruptions of service are rare, because the modern utility has tremendous resources with num erous sources of power, and serves many communities. We have as many tabor-saving devices aa wa like, and they cost almost nothing to operate. The electrlo industry is busy carry ing on rural electrification projects that are bringing, at a reasonable cost, the blessings of power to thous ands of farmers. This la what "size" mean In regard to the electric in dustry. Wyoming State Journal. For Afternoons at Home Miss Heath Chooses 1 x This Is about price wars and cut throat competition. Let's look back for a moment. The dairy Industry within a short span of years has grown to be the country's largest business. It tops steel, automobiles, wheat, cotton yea, even bootlegging by billions, not merely millions, of dollars. As the American people have learned and seen the value in milk, butter, Ice cream and chec, they have spent an ever Increasing part of their food dollar for these products. Now are we going to "kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?" At we going to engage In expensive price wars that eventually necessitate low eiing high standards of quality and service? Are we going to offer sub standard products at a "price" In or der to boost sales at the expense of a competitor, who In turn, will re taliate? This Is food for thought for every one engaged In the industry. It may be a lot of fun to have a good fight but this la no time for it. There's too much work to be done. Price wars and cut-throat competition have never helped any Industry. They won't help the Dairy industry. Remember no one wins" in a civil war. From The Creamery Pack age Bulletin. BUYING STOPPED BY LOCAL WIVES Hand-to-mouth buying Is no longer popular In this community. House wives here are buying not for one meal or for one day, but for two or three days. While It Is true that many women still make dally trips to mar ket, more and more housekeepers are purchasing foodstuffs in larger quan tities. They are enabled to do this. says Miss Estella Dorgan, home serv ice director of the California Oregon Power company, because they have proper facilities for the preservation of foodstuffs. Home economics and houiehold Institutes have demonstrated the sav ings vhlch accrue as a result of elec trlo refrigeration. While waste, in the matter of 'left-overs' and 'tag-ends' la eliminated by the modern refri gerator, there Is a greater saving in quantity purchases of perishable food stuffs, such aa meat and vegetables and fruits. For instance, Saturday prices usual ly are below those of the midweek Housewives who read the newspaper advertising and purchase In quan tities on Saturday will find they have made a substantial saving. "Ruetta Day Blinks, specialist in food marketing and director of the food department of the Homemaking Center of New York City, recently concluded ft year's test of savings made possible through use of the electric, refrigerator. These savings totaled 9120 for the year." Nelly Dons Fine fabrioi and expert dressmaking are expected of Nelly Dons ...
