Spoilage Os Canned Foods
Think of the money you can
save on groceries next winter!
That is. IF you get a good
food product ready for home
canning now and follow the
i best canning methods known.
| Canning is so easy and you’ll
really be proud of those pantry
shelves of beautifully canned
vegetables.
There are a few food preser
vation facts learn d from re
search I would like to chat
with you about today. One big
thing to think about in home
canning is possible food spoil
age. Foods spoil because of the
action of tiny organisms known
as molds, yeast and bacteria.
In canning, their action must
be stopped. It can be done by
proper application of heat. The
jars must seal airtight after
processing so the micro-orga
nisms can’t enter.
Subjecting yeast and molds
to the temperature of boiling
water for a few minutes will
usually stop their growth. The
action enzymes found in veg
devotional period with each mem
ber participating.

"LifToTjohn -
Wesley" To Be
Shown, Atlanta
One of the great Evangelists
was John Wesley, and the story
of his life is an inspiring story
to everyone regardless of re
ligion. Principally known as the
founder of Methodism, he is
credited by historians with
saving England from a revolu
tion.
The story of this great man
has been captured on film, in
I breath - taking color, by J. Ar
thur Rank Productions, and
will be shown in Atlanta night
ly, May 15-20, at 8 PM, at the
Wesley Memorial Auditorium,
corner of Auburn and Ivy,
across from the telephone build
ing, in the heart of Atlanta. The
public is invited to these free
showings.
At the end of the weeks
showings, a special program of
Wesley hymns will be present
ed by the Atlanta Festival
Choir under the direction of
Doctor Charles Dana Beaschler.
This program is scheduled for
Sunday afternoon, May 21, at
5 o’clock in the Wesley Memor
ial Auditorium, with the au
dience invited to Sing A Long
i with the choir. This program
I is also open to the public.
tables is also stopped by a
short boiling period. Enzymes
can bring about such changes
in food as discoloration, soft
ened texture, loss of flavor and
destruction of vitamin c con
tent.
Bacteria is more difficult to
destroy. The amount and kind j
of bacteria on foods may also
vary. Some are more heat re
sistant than others. It’s very
important to process food the
full period of time suggested
in reliable time tables and
make sure the temperature be
ing applied is correct. If this
is not done, later spoilage of
the canned food may result. If
not destroyed by heat, yeast
and many types of bacteria can
grow in a sealed jar thus
causing spoilage.
Dangerous Poisons in
The Home
What's that the baby is
playing with?
That should be a question
asked by a parent each time a
child is noticed with a bottle
or other container. The con
tainer could possibly contain
poisonous materials.
It’s hard to keep your eye
on children every minute of
the day so don’t wait for him
to discover such items. Store
them out of reach of the child.
Nearly all accidental poison
ings could be prevented if
these materials were stored
and handled properly.
Poison Control Centers cau
tion parents on leaving medi
cine cabinets unlocked. Drugs
are a major source of poison
ings. They account for one
third of all fatal poisonings
among children under five
years of age.
Household chemicals are an
other danger item in the home.
Never store these chemicals
under the kitchen sink. Haz
ardous household products be
long on high shelves, prefer
ably locked.
Kerosene, turpentine, and
other such products should not
be kept in soft drink bottles,
milk bottles, drinking glasses,
or pitchers. The child assumes
they ar* something good to
drink.
There are many other ma
terials around the home which
are dangerous. Make a regular
check to be sure poisonous
items aren’t within a child’s
reach.
Winter Clothing Storage
Storing valuable winter
clothes for protection from
damaging moths is now a job
to be undertaken by many
homemakers.
I would like to offer a few
suggestions today on storing
some of these items. For ex
ample, be sure woolens are
clean before you store them.
If you’re storing woolen gar
ments in a closet, spray a five
percent D-D-T solution on
closet walls, baseboards, floors,
and other surfaces. These are
the spots where insects are de
veloping or at least where
they will come into contact
with chemical deposit after it
has evaporated. The applica
tion is usually effective for
several weeks.
Entomologists say that D-
D-T has no fumigating effect.
This means that the larvae in
untreated clothing won’t be
killed. When treating the
clothing, spray lightly all over
the fabric on both sides with
the same five-percent D-D-T
solution. One precaution
though—keep away from the
fire when spraying with an oil
spray.
For the clothing articles
stored in a trunk, chest or
wooden box, scatter about a
pound of flakes between the
folds of clothing. Preferably,
this should be placed between
sheets of thin, clean paper.
It’s important to keep the
storage unit closed tightly.
Make sure your winter cloth
ing is clean and then store it
properly so as to have good
winter clothing next year. It’s
another way to save money in
the household.
Tree Farmers
Since Southern lumber
companies do not grow all the
timber their operations re
quire, they rely on farmers
and other small landholders
for supplemental supplies.
More than half of the nation’s
Tree Farmers are located in the
12 Southern Pine producing
states. All told, nearly 2 million
persons share in the owner
ship of the Southern Pine
forests.
A package often costs more
than the food it protects, ac
cordmg to the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.
