CAMPAIGN TO INCREASE
HOME CANNED FOODS
WILL BE CONDUCTED
Athens, Ga. —An intensive home
canning campaign for Georgia, to
open June 15 and continue at least
through July 15, has been announced
by the Georgia Agricultural Exten
sion Service through Miss Susan
Mathews, extension nutritionist.
An effort will be made, Miss
Mathews says, to increase the amount
ol' home canned foods at least 40 per
cent. According to estimates made
by the Service, in 1932, over 13,000
women in the various home demon
stration clubs in the state canned 2.-
215,782 quarts of fruits and vege
tables for home, use during the win
ter, but this amount provided only
60 per cent of the canned foods
needed for an adequate diet by these
13,000 families during the winter
when fresh fruits and vegetables are
not readily available. The goal of a
40 per cent increase is to insure an
adequate diet in winter during this
period of economic stress.
It has been shown from the re
cords of the county home demonstra
tion agents, says Miss Mathews, that,
in 1932 those families who canned
food for winter not only pi-ovided a
better diet but kept at home $443,-
156 which otherwise would have
been spent for food. In 1933 if these
same families can an adequate sup
ply of food for winter, over $730,000
will be added to their incomes.
“In every county in the state
where extension work in agriculture
and home economics is being car
ried on,” Miss Mathews says, “a
schedule of demonstrations in can
ning has been planned so that any
homemaker desiring to know how to
save the surplus food from her gar
den and orchard may attend. These
demonstrations will offer an excel
lent opportunity for families on re
lief to provide a pantry of canned
food for winter at a very low cost.”
County home demonstration agents
and county agricultural agents will
give or sponsor these demonstra
tions, assisted by Miss Lurline Col
lier, Miss Mathews and by district
supervisors of agricultural extension
work.
The Agricultural Extension Ser
vice is the pioneer advocate of home
planning in Georgia, having begun
with tomato canning clubs as far
back as 1911.

How She Lost 18
Pouncb of Fat
FOR LESS THAN SI.OO
“Will say in regards to Kruschen:
I took it to reduce. I lost 18 pounds
after using one bottle and feel fine.
Just bought one more bottle today
and expect to lose 13 more pounds.
I now weigh 148 and feel fine.” Mrs.
Harry Robinson, Akron, Ohio. (Jan.
G, 1933.)
Once a day take Kruschen Salts—
one half teaspoonful in a glass of
hot water first thing every morning.
Besides losing ugly fat SAFELY
you’ll gain in health and physical at
tractiveness—constipation, gas and
acidity will cease to bother —you’ll
feel younger—more active —full of
ambition —clear skin sparkling
eyes.
A jar that lasts 4 weeks costs but
a trifle at any drugstore in the
world—but demand and get Krus
chen and if one bottle doesn’t joy
fully please- vou—money back.
