Wise Spending of Food Dollars
B\ Nellie C. Boyd
Extension Nutrition Specialist
In 1962. nineteen cents of
every dollar of income after ■
■ taxes was spent for food by ■
American families. This was
quite a drop from the twenty
i six cents of every dollar of j
disposable income spent sor 1
food in the 1947-49 period.
Today's homemaker may still I
feel, however, that she should ,
make her food dollar go even
further in providing for the :
food needs of her family and
in satisfying their likes and |
dislikes.
A food plan for a week or
several days is one way to ach
ieve this. In planning ahead,
leftovers can become planned
overs and become tasty dishes
which have eye appeal. Family
suggestions can be considered
and a shopping list can be

Spring Projects
Suggested for
The 'Panelier'
Assuming this record cold
weather can't go on forever, we
optimistic souls are trying to
unthaw our energies and im
agination with thoughts of
spring.
Traditionally, spring has
been a pleasant season when
we brighten and freshen uo
our homes. Some of us will un
dertake ambitious home im
provements. But whether the
project is major or minor, few
remodeling media offer a wider
range of opportunities than
modern patterns of wood pane
ling.
If we should take the oc
casion to visit Williamsburg.
I Virginia, or other historic sites
|on the Atlantic seaboard, we
i would be aware of a remark
able evolution in the purpose
' and use of wood paneling.
In manv ancient manors,
। wood paneled walls are beauti
fully embellished and preser
; ved. But in the long gone days
when those homes were built,
the panels were regarded pure
ly as decorative devices.
During recent times, the
material has acquired a larger
purpose.
Whether it is applied by a
professional or by a competent
handyman, wood paneling can
be a construction instrument of
architectural styling. It can
make small rooms look larger
and brighter. Tt can make large
I rooms seem less austere and
more hospitable. It can convert
j little used, dingy space into
attractive living area
Here are some suggestions
from the Southern Pine Associ
ation for the wood “panelier”:
The contours and purpose of
the area should be evaluated
prior to determining choice of
application and color. For ex- ।
ample, if the room is low ceil
inged. a vertical placement of
panels will give an impression
of greater ceiling height.
Warm colors make the walls ,
seem closer which is often de- I
sirable in a large room. Cool
colors make the walls seem
more remote: also establish the
sense of relaxation essential to
a sleeping or study area
The texture interest inherent.
to wood can be further embell
ished by the pattern. Either a
“fluted” or reverse-batten ef
fect gives a three dimensional
look to the panels. With re
verse battens, the full thick
ness of the boards projects
from the walls.
If the “panelier” plans wise
ly. he will achieve a beautiful
interior finish that requires no
maintenance and eliminates the
expense of “re-doing” the room
every few years
Nail holding power and dur- i
ability of surface deserve care
ful consideration in choice of
species. To assure a surface
that .stays snug and smooth, the
paneling should be "pre-sh
runk” by proper seasoning All
grades of Southern Pine panel
ing carry mandatory 12 per
cent moisture content limits.

' made which will make shop
ping more' efficient.
The first step in making a
general plan is to decide what
foods and the amounts needed
to serve a nutritionally adequ
ate and pleasant diet to the
family.
It is always good to plan a
I meal with the amount of time :
j available to you for prepara
! tion and your skill to cook it,'
so that you can serve the food
at the peak of its perfection.
The amount of money will
I influence your meal plans. You
must decide how much you can
afford to spend for prepared
or partly prepared foods. If you
have many and heavy demands
on your time, which cut into
the time you have for meal
preparation, you may find that
the use of prepared foods is a
good reason for paying a high
er price for some food.
The homemaker can also
plan menus which fit the time
available for food preparation.
Planning will make time, en
ergy and money go further!
Pair Blasts
US Employment
Service Tactics
ATLANTA — Unless Con
gress quickly and absolutely
builds a fence around the
United States Employment
Service, “another of America’s
valued freedoms will go down
the drain never to be recover
ed,” according to James H.
Pair, Atlanta, who is chair
man of the legislative commit
tee of the Georgia Association
I of Private Employment Agen
cies and second vice president
of the National Employment
Association.
“The United Stales Employ
ment Service (USES),” said
Mr. Pair in a prepared release,
“is deliberately and studious
ly driving toward a national
socialized manpower monopoly
! that will positively destroy
free relations between em
ployers and employees in
every single bracket of busi
ness and industry. That is a
harsh statement, but it is a
true and startling fact."
The USES is administered
by the Bureau of Employment
’ Security under the Federal De
partment of Labor, and in its
capacity the USES, under le
gal congressional establish
ment, directs and controls the
activities of 1 860 local em
ployment agencies scattered
strategically throughout all
the 50 states.
In Georgia there are 38
USES agencies, five of which
are located in metropolitan
< Atlanta.
Though the USES was
created originally by Congress
in 1918. that bureau did not
attain any degree of stature
until adoption of the Wagner-
Peyser Act of 1963 when near
ly 13 million Americans —
24 8 per cent of the national
labor force — were without
jobs.
“The objective was to find
jobs and put the unemployed
back to work," said Mr. Pair.
“Although the objective was
many times pointed up in
speeches and comments on the ,
floor of congress, the intent i
was not nailed down in the 1
precise language of the Wag
ner - Peyser Act, which grant- I
ed broad powers to the agency
in setting up and administer-1
mg an unlimited number of
employment bureaus through- I
out all the states of the Union.
"As a result we are now faced j
with one of the most serious
threats to our system of free |
enterprise that ever developed
from any source in America,
and as grotesquely as it seems
| the socialized move is under
direct sponsorship of the Unit
ed States government and fi-
. nanced by taxpayer monies."
— I
After delivery, the paneling
should be stacked on narrow
, separator sticks for condition
ing to room atmosphere. Backs
and ends should be treated
with a penetrating sealor or
other moisture resistant coat
ing prior to installation. This
maintains the dry condition es
.ential to permanent perfor
i mance.
There are two main categor
ies of finish;—“natural” and
“stains.” With a natural finish,
j the basic color of the wood is .
left unchanged, but the surface
may be glossy or dull, as the
iu-cr desires. With stain finish
es, many different hues may be
achieved. The applied color is
transparent to expose the grain
and seems just as natural as
the wood’s own hue
When properly applied to
well-seasoned, “sealed” panel
ing, either a natural or stain
finish will last indefinitely.
