Facts and Figures On Increased Appliance Demands Here are facts and figures which explain why the demand for major appliances in Amer ica is climbing higher and high er every year: Automatic Washers A survey conducted by a manufacturer's home econom ics laboratory showed- that a family wash of five eight-pound loads can be done by an oper ator of average skill in 27 min utes of the operator's time 5.4 minutes per -load.-This is only 10 per cent of the energy and 15. per cent of the time re quired by other home laundry methods. The tests also indicated that home-washed linens and linens and clothing . last from 33 13 per cent to 100 per cent longer than those commercialy laundered. Automatic Dryers The same survey showed that use of a dryer saves a total of three hours per week formerly spent in hanging, sprinkling and ironing clothes. It also elimin ates labor involved in carrying 90 and 120 pounds of clothes to and from the clothesline. Dryer-dried clothes and house hold linens also last longer than those line-dried, with better re tention of fabric color and tex ture, less loss of tensile strength. With drying time shortened and drying made . independent of weather, fewer clothes and lin ens, are required. Automatic Dishwasher The research showed that for the average family, about five minutes are required to prepare dishes and load a dishwasher, compared with 35 minutes need ed to .scrape, rinse, dry and put away dishes when the work is Some women lose much of done by hand. Breakage of the convenience and-some of the china and glassware is reduced. Wednesday, December S, 1958 j w. . ' ..

Here is some advice 'on packaging food for the freezer: 1. Always choose cartons and wrappings that ane moisture proof and vapor-proof, easy to handle, seal and label. Materials should be flexible and strong enough to withstand handling at zero degrees. 2.' Wrap all food "tightly. "Freezer-burn," which appears as frost or grayish-white spots on frozen food, is caused by air pfiekets that are left between ihe product and the wrapping material." If containers are used, they should be filled to the rec ommended nlark-rusualiy one half inch from the top for solids, one inch from the top for liquids. 3. For convenience each pack age should be labeled' with the date of storage, kind of food and, when necessary, weight or quantity. 4. Use only table-ripe, vegeta bles or fruits that are at the peak of maturity. Meal-Size Quantities . 5. Fruit should be packaged in meal-size (juantities, so there will be Jio left-overs. Defrosted frozen fruit loses its palatability if left standing several hours, and it" should never be re-frozen. It is especially important for fruits to be packaged in contain ers tbat are leak-proof, fifm, moisture- and vapor-proof. 6. Fruits that are to be used primarily for pies, jellies or pre serves can be washed and frozen in dry packs without sugar or. syrup. Fruits can also be frozen in a dry sugar, pack or jn a syrup pack. 7. Meats should be wrapped immediately ' after cutting, to nrevent loss of juice and flavor. 8. When sheet material or plastic bags are used 1n packaging-use a box or pan -as a form until the wrapped product j is frozen solid. When the form is removed it leaves a regular shaped and easily-stored pack age. 9. Keep small .food packages in one .large nylon bag. It makes them easier to find. 10. Freeze foodsMn meal-sized amounts to avoid de-frosting foods that cannot be re-frozen.. Use of dishcloths and dish towels is almost eliminated. Home Freezers The .company's studies indi cated that food preservation by freezers requires only half as much time as canning. Time and energy are saved by fewer shopping trips. Foods can be cooked and frozen when time is available. With both fresh and cooked frozen foods on hand, meals can be prepared quickly and easily. Money can be saved by buying food in quantities, taking advantage of sales of low seasonal prices. Food preparation costs, and food wastes are reduced by wise use of plan-overs and left-overs.
