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.

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."

You know that "balance" is the most
important thing about vour recipe that

he brought to his nide family table
a delicious food of greater energy
value than any of the foods he had

Of course he was extremely fond
of this sweet and troubled Indeed
were the hives of every honey-gathering
Insect from that time until to
day. And so for ages honey occupied
a very high place among foods. The
Bible tells us that the Children of
Israel could find no higher praise
for the promised lnnd than to say
that it flowed with milk and honey.
And. actually, there is no other food
which so vividly brings fragmnce and
flavor to a repast as does honey. It

On an avernpe. less than one-fifth
of thfr weight of honey Is water. But
the proportion of water varies In In

Practically all the honey on the
