Q. How much sugar can l 8et get
for home canning*
A- You will get l pound of sugar
for every 4 quarts 0 f finished
fruit you are putting up. You
may can as much fruit * as ^ vonr
family needs.
in s?JUr your family to make a^smaH
m jel,1 “ -
Q. How do I apply for that
sugar?
A. You apply to your rationing
board for a certificate for sugar
for home canning on Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday. With
this certificate you can buy sugar
at any store. Under exceptional
circumstances, and at the dis
cretion of the local rationing
boards, application for sugar for !
canning may be handled by mail. 1
Q. How much fruit does it! }
usually take to fill a quart?
A. Usually 7 to 8 apples; ’ 8 to j
10 peaches; 5 to 6 pears; 24 to 32
plums; 5 cups of berries or 6
cups of cherries will fill a quart.
Q. How can I stretch the sugar J
1 I do get for canning?
A. Add a small amount of sugar
to the fruit's own juices, instead of
making the usual sugar syrup.
Fruits naturally contain a great
deal of water, and you can make
best use of your sugar by sweet
ening this rather than by adding
more water in the form of a
syrup.
Heat the slightly sweetened fruit;
carefully in a sauce pan. This
draws out the juices, shrinks the
fruit, and drives out the air, mak
ing it possible to pack generous
amounts of fruits in each jar.
there should be enough juice to
cover the fruit completely.
Honey may be used to replace
up to one-half the sugar called for
in canning, and corn syrup up to I
one-third. Fruit sugar-rationing juices are not j
provided for in
allowances, but they may be bot- j
tied or put up in jars with little
or no sugar. When sweet and )
tart juices are mixed together, no
sugar is needed. Fruit for juice
is processed at simmering rather
than at boiling temperatures to I
keep the natural fruit flavors.

As a part of a complete conser
vation program worked out for his:
farm by the Coosa River soil con- .
servation district, Harmon Adams,
Cedartown. developed a one-acre
,
fertilized fish pond and stocked
it with bream and bass three years
ago. Now when he goes fishing he
is sure of a good catch,
Since he was especially interest
ed in fishing and had a clear
spring branch running through his
farm, Mr. Adams figured that de
veloping a fish pond would be ideal
for a part of the land. When he
learned that a properly managed
fertilized pond could produce 400
to 600 pounds of fish per acre per j
year, he definitely decided to in
elude the pond as a part of his
conservation program.
The pond was fertilized with 200
P ounds of corn P^ et:e fertilizer three
years a S°- Since then, just enough
fertilizer has been added from time
to time to keep the water slightly
green in color, indicating an abun
dance of microscopic plants which
provide the food for minute forms
of animal life on which, in turn,
the small fish feed.
To assure rapid growth of the i
fj S h, conservationists explain it is
necessary to stock the pond with
a proper balance of bass and
bream. The bass eat the small
bream, keeping dowm the number
0 f small fish, and thus enabling the
other fish to grow more rapidly
on the available food,

bell was responsible for the relax
ation and alternation of state laws
governing motor carriers and
trucks on the roads of Georgia.
The government was very anxious
to have this law altered in all 48
states to allow army trucks to
pass through without being ham
pered by restrictions. This week,
the government made this demand
upon the various states, but Geor
gia was forward in its action in
altering its laws during the last
session of the legislature. Credit
for this action is due Mr. Camp
bell who sought and secured an
even more liberal
change than the government
quests. Some states have not
changed their laws in this
and has caused the
much trouble and concern.
