Canning Sugar To Be Allowed (Continued from page 1) lection of blue stamps from war ration book two at the rate of 8 points per quart (4 points per pound). Point stamps thus collect ed must be surrendered each month to the local board. Although home - canned foods include primarily those that the housewife puts up in her kitchen for the use of her family, anyone who contributes the ingredients, or the equipment, or part of the labor requited for home-canning operations may consume the food produced without surrendering ra tion points. Different Form Provided Application for sugar for home canning f >r sale is made on OPA form R-315, which asks for the following information: 1. The number of quarts or pound9 of fruit to be canned for sale; 2. The amount of sugar for which application is made; 3. The address at which the pro cessing will be done; 4. The type of facilities to be used; and 5. Whether or not any other member of the family has re ceived an allowance of sugar for the same purpose. On the basis of thia application a sugar purchase certificate for the total’ amount of sugar allowed for the entire canning season will be issued by the board. Those who sell home-canned foods must keep a record of all Bales And must turn in the ration stamps collected to the local ra tion board that orginally granted the sugar for canning, on or be fore the 10th of the month after the sale was made. Sales records must contain the following information: 1. the amount and date of all transfers; 2. the name and address of the person to whom the food was transfered. Needn't Can at Home To make it possible for consum ers to continue to use outside Can ning facilities >f they have done so before, and to make it possible for persons who have grown their own fruits and vegetables to have them commercially canned, if they wish, special provisions are made in the new regulations. Chief a- mong these provisions are: 1. A person whose family has grown its own fruits and vege tables and supplies all necessary ingredients for processing, includ ing sugar may have them com mercially canned and may acquire 100 quarts of such canned food for each member of his family without surrendering ration points. These foods, however, are not considered home-canned so far as their point value is concerned, and if sold require collection by the seller of the same point value as other commercially canned foods as given on the official table of point values for processed foods. 2. After first obtaining permis sion from a local ration board, a group of persons may use a com mercial canning plant for proces sing food primarily for its own families and each member of the group may take home his share of the food so canned without sur rendering ration points provided that: (a) He contributes his share of Vernonia Eagle th? labor or materials; (b) Neither the person who owns the cannery nor anyone who nor mally operates the facilities used docs any of the processing, and; (c) He has used these facilities for the same purpose in the past, or that he or some member of the group that is to sh.re the fin ished food, grow the fruits and vegetables canned. Institution* May Can The revised home-canning regu lations also make provisions where by small boarding houses, hotels, and restaurants, as well as govern ment-owned and privately-operat ed institutions (such as schools, prisons, hospitals, etc.) may get sugar and make other necessary arrangements to do their own can ning. In these cases the amount of sugar allowed as well as the pro visions for reporting and using processed foods canned depends largely on the size and function of the institution. For example: 1. Operators of small boarding houses that are classed by OPA a» “group one’’ institutional users get their share of home canning on the same basis as individual consumers. They may obtain a maximum of 25 pounds of sugar for each boarder who turns over his sugar book for this purpose. The sugar obtained, and the food produced may be used in the same way as it is used by a family group. 2. “Group II” and “group III” institutions which include those that do not use ration books of the persons they feed to obtain food allowances, but are given food allotments by OPA, may ob tain one pound of sugar for each four quarts of fruit they process, and may in addition, can as large an amount of vegetables as they wish. Jam* Not in Allotment No special provision is made for these institutions to get sugar for making jellies and jams. Su gar used for this purpose must be provided out of the institution’s regular sugar allotment. The total amount of all fruits and vegetables canner by an insti tutional user must be reported to Those Who Are In It Employers Urged to File With Board Mrs. C. F. Hieber, wife of Ver nonia’s city treasurer, is now proudly wearing a 3-star solid gold bar pin, for with the recent c mmissioning of the Hieber’s oldest son, Gordon, as a lieuten ant, senior grade, in the navy her three sons are all serving in the armed forces of Uncle Sam. Gord on is stationed in the Washington, D. C., navy yard. He had been a national bank examiner in the Cleveland federal district. First Lt. Glen Hieber is attend ing Harvard university for 12 weeks of advanced military train ing. Cadet Lowell Hieber is un dergoing officer’s training in the quartermaster corps at Camp Lee Virginia.

Selective service form No. 42B which is available at local board offices, should be used for this purpose. The local board, it was pointed out, thus will be advised of the registrants employment in an es sential activity and the employer will receive notice of reopening of the registrant’s classification any time it is undertaken by the local board. The employer, after receiving such notification, will have opportunity to’ submit addi tional evidence of the essentiality of necessary men in his employ. Few Father Inducted The only fathers now being in ducted under the selective service act are those engaged in activi ties or occupations on the war manpower commission’s non-defer- rable list, farm workers who, with out permission of their local board, leave essential’ agriculture pursuits for which they have been deferred, and fathers whose child ren were born on or after Sep tember 15, 1942. Submission of form 42B is urged, however, for men who have a child, or children with whom they maintain a bona fide family relationship in their homes, to assure the employer that if the time comes when such his local ration board and is in cluded in the total amount of pro cessed foods he may use during an allotment period. Since home canned food has a point value considerable lower than commercially canned food, this arrangement makes it pos sible for institutional users that do their own canning to use a much larger volume of canned food than is possible when only .commercially canned foods are ducted into the marine corps this used. week at Portland.

Heretofore, form 42B was used by employers to indicate men with dependents engaged in an activity essential to war production or in support of the war effort for whom class III-B deferment was requested. However, now that class III-B, for the designation of such men, has been eliminated, form 42B will be filed only for men with children who are in class III-A. NEWS IN ANIMAL FEEDS Farmers will be interested in two recent department of agri culture discoveries. Poultry nutri tion specialists have found that soybean meal properly cooked is a promising substitute for meat scrap and other protein feeds of animal origin. Another discovery is that good-quality home-grown legume hays, lormerly considered too bulky for hog feed, may be used to reduce the amount of concentrates required in rations for growing and fattening pigs. Of three legumes tested soybean hay gave the best results, when used for five to ten percent of the total ration. Interpretation Changed Coincident with these sugges tions to employers, selective ser vice also announced an interpreta tion of its previously issued mem orandum relating to filling calls. The revised section provides: “When a local board is filling a call it shall first select and ord er to report for induction speci fied men who have volunteered for induction. To fill the balance of the call it shall, from the groups listed below and insofar as possible in the order in which the groups are listed, select and order to report for induction specified men finally classified in class I-A and class I-A-0 who are available for induction: “1. Men with no dependents. (All men not qualified for group 2, group 3, or group 4, below, will for this purpose be consider ed as men with no dependents.) “2. Men with collateral depend ents, provided such status was acquired prior to December 8. 1941. “3. Men who have wives with whom they maintain a bona fide family relationship in their homes provided such status was acquired prior to December 8, 1941. “4. Men who have children with whom they maintain a bona fide family relationship in their homes provided such status was acquired prior to December 8, 1941. (Now limited to those who were placed in class I-A or class I-A-0 because they left an agricultural occupa tion or endeavor essential to the war effort without the permission of their local boards or because they were engaged in nondefer- rable activities or occupations).” LIVE HOG CEILING IS THREATENED Livestock producers and pack ers were told a few days ago by Chester C. Davis, food adminis trator, that a ceiling would have to be established on live hogs if prices did not adjust themselves in line with wholesale ceilings. He remarked, however, that the recent course of the hog market has been most satisfactory. Be Particular!

And with the canning season just ahead, it’s none too soon to start planning now for this food conservation event. Plan Your Canning Budget Of course, the amount of home canning you do will depei 1 upon the size of your family. It is just as wasteful to can too much as it is to pass up the can ning season altogether. A fair allow ance for the average person is 100 quarts of canned fruits and vegetables a year. This figure includes both home and commercially canned foods. Divide that 100 quarts in thirds, one-third for fruits and berries, one-third for toma toes and tomato juice, and one-third for vegetables with a large portion in leafy and green vegetables, and you have a rough estimate of your family’s needs for the year. This allowance doesn’t include jellies, pickles, relishes and those extras that pep up the menu the year around. Jars, Lids, and Classes Assemble all your jars that can be used for sealing. Some mayonnaise and pea nut butter jars and other jars can be used if they take the standard size self sealing lids. Check the mouths of the jars and discard all those with chips, cracks, or flaws, for such defects make perfect sealing impossible. If you’ve half gallon jars, plan to use them for tomatoes and fruits. They are too large for the proper penetration of heat for other foods Glasses and jars which can’t be sealed can be used for jam and sealed with paraffin. Storage Space Be sure there’s enough storage space for your canned goods before you plan too much canning, for if you haven’t a place to keep them, don’t can- foods will spoil! They should be stored in a dark, cool place. It is not wise to keep them in the kitchen because of the heat from cooking Shopping List and Shop iorly Include commercial pectins, pickling spices, paraffin, self-sealing lids and added canning jars on your preparatory shopping list, as well as anything else you may need.
