If the interest and popularity of
frozen foods continue to grow at
the present rate, the general use of
freezing as a method of food pres
ervation will have far reaching ef
fects, changing the pattern of our
food habits. In the course of time,
freezing probably will become es
tablished as the foremost method of
food preservation, because of the
many merits of frozen foods.
There is the eye appeal of their
color; the taste appeal of their
taste and texture, the convenience
they provide for easy meal prep
aration the economy they represent
by buying food cheaply in the sum
mer time when things are plentiful;
the luxury of serving foods out of
season.
Then, there is another merit to
frozen foods—perhaps the most im
portant of aM—their nutritive value.
For when frozen foods are cooked
they are the equivalent of fresh
cooked foods in nutritive value.
When frozen foods become more
commonly used in daily meal prep
aration it is not unreasonable to
assume that the collective health of
the nation will also improve. The
modern method of freezing as a
means of food preservation is the
result of about thirty years of
scientific research.

to 4 lbs. peaches. When a small
amount of peaches are peeled at
one time citric cid may be added to
the sugar instead of putting peaches
in citric acid solution. — V4to 14 tea
spoon citric acid to 1 lb. peaches;
% teaspoon ascorbic acid may be
added to each pound of peaches.
There are two methods of pack
aging.
Do not use syrup pack when the
fruit is to be used for pies, pre
serves, jelly, the water has to be
cooked out. Peaches may be in
halves, sliced or pulped. If halves
or sliced the peaches should be
covered promptly with a syrup to
keep the fruit from becoming dis
colored.
The use of sugar and sugar sy
rups for packing fruits aid greatly
in maintaining the color texture and
aroma during the freezing and stor
ing and defrosting. When a dry su
gar pack is used the fruit must be
submerged in sugar syrup. When a
dry pack is used, the fruit must be
mixed until each piece is coated with
sugar, in apricot, peaches, the syrup
must be desolved before packaging
to prevent darkening of the fruit.
The sugar packed peaches shrivel
and do not have the natural ap-
pearance that the syrup packed
peaches have.
Syrup solution: —40% or 50%
equal cups of sugar and water. 50%
is the all around syrup, 40% for
some fruits.

To do a good job of bargaining
over how much any stand of timber
is worth, it is necessary to know how
much of the timber is for sale and
have some idea of its quality or
worth. Trees that are straight, tall
and have few limbs, no fire scars
or other damage are worth more per
thousand than short, limby or dam
aged trees.

Zelma B. Greer
Makes Record In
Civic Campaign
Friends in his old home communi
ty are glad to learn of the outstand
ing record attained by Zelma B.
Greer, resident of Mountain Brook,
Birmingham, Ala., suburb, in selling
104 memberships in the Birmingham
Chamber of Commerce and quali
fying for a life membership in that
organization.
He set a record never before
equaled and qualified as a super
salesman, according to the Birming
ham News-Age Herald. In speaking
of the accomplishment the Birming
ham paper said:
“To be exact Mr. Greer has sold
104 memberships since May 1. That
qualifies him as a supersalesman.
One would think that he had nothing
else to do during this campaign, but
the fact was that Mr. Greer at the
same time was chairman of the
clean-up campaign for the Cancer
Campaign and also president of the
Young Business Men’s Club which
also was in the midst of a member
ship drive of its own.”
“On top of all his activities, Mr.
Greer also had an important trip
to Miami scheduled in connection
with his business as district manager
of Appleton Electric Company.. But
he got 20 members before he left
and when he came back he was still
ahead. After getting over several
days of sickness he really went after
new members, going over the cen
tury mark. It all just shows that to
get something done pick a busy man.
“Although without thought of
personal gain, Mr. Greer did right
well by himself in ‘signing up’ the
104 members. Besides winning the
life membership —worth SSO or
more per year— Mr. Greer won two
tickets to the Sugar Bowl game
with railroad fare and hotel fare,
