FREEZER THERMOMETER
A thermometer is an important
gadget to have in your food free
zer. A zero temperature or
lower should be maintained in
the freezer and the only sure way
of maintaining this temperature
level is to have some way to
check frequently.
As the temperature rises in a
freezer, the quality of the food
decreases rapidly. Research
data shows that frozen meat,
stored at 26 degrees, reaches
the point of unacceptability in
less than 30 days.
Flavor and color are two fac
tors most noticeable. When the
same meat is held at 10 de
grees, the storage life is ex
tended to 120 days. A minus
10 degrees extends the shelf
life to over 365 days. This
same trend applies to all fro
zen food.
A minus 10 degrees assures
you that the unfrozen product
will freeze faster. The quicker
the product is frozen, the better
the quality. And, too, minus 10
degrees storage temperature can
greatly extend the shelf life of
frozen foods.
In a recent survey, it was
found that only 36 percent of
the farm and 25 percent of the
urban freezers had ther
mometers. When temperatures
were checked in the freezers,
40 percent of the farm and 30
percent of the urban freezers re
gistered temperatures higher
than zero.
It makes sense to have a ther
mometer in the food freezer so
as to have a means of checking
the Inside temperature each
time the freezer is opened.

FOOD PRICES FOR 1967
A “family living views - 1967”
report prepared recently gives
some Idea of what to expect in
food prices this year.
Author of the report is Lora
Laine, Extension home economist
--family economics at the Uni
versity of Georgia.
Lower food prices for pork,
poultry, and eggs are expected
because of increased supplies.
The large increase in citrus
fruit forecast for this winter is
expected to result in lower pri
ces through much of 1967 for
this food group.
Reduced beef supplies likely
will mean higher beef prices,
particularly after mid-year, ac
cording to Miss Laine. Dairy
prices are expected to remain
strong and average higher than
In 1966. Cereal and bakery
products are expected to Increase
gradually. Prices may creep up
ward for fats and oils and many
processed fruits and vegetables.

Economist
Miss Carolyn Joyner
foods will likely be somewhat
larger this year, retail food pri
ces will probably average higher
than last year. However, prices
are not expected to increase as
much as in 1966.
One fact we probably overlook
when thinking about rising food
costs is that of disposable family
income which has been on the
upward trend. Adecreaslngpro
portlon of disposable personal
Income has been spent for food
since 1947. The percentage drop
ped from 26 percent In 1947 to
18.2 percent in 1966. As Incomes
are expected to rise, the percent
of disposable personal income
spent for food is expected to con
tinue downward.

CLOTHING CARE
A plan for regular clothing
care is the first step toward
getting the most out of your
wardrobe. If you will follow a
few guidelines, your clothes will
certainly benefit. Each fabric
has Its own special needs but
most cleaning procedures apply
to all articles of clothing.
1. Outer garments should
be brushed regularly, including
pockets and cuffs. 2. Garments
should be washed and cleaned
frequently. Heavily imbedded
dirt is very difficult to remove
and tends to shorten the life
of a garment. 3. Garments
should not be worn continuously
in order to avoid too frequent
pressing. If hung up properly for
at least 24 hours between wear
ings, a garment will often regain
its shape. 4. Buttons and other
fasteners should be checked fre
quently to make sure they are
secure and undamaged. As soon
as there is any sign of loosen
ing or breakage, they should be
renewed. Tears and rips should
be mended as soon as they appear.
5. Seasonable clothing should
be stored when not in use. Win
ter clothing should be kept in
clean mothproof and fume-free
bags. All garments should be
cleaned before storing, since
body oils, perspiration, and other
dirt tend to discolor and de
teriorate fibers. Washable gar
ments should not be starched be
fore storing, because starch
tends to make them yellow and
also attracts silverfish.
6. All outer clothing should
be hung on plastic, padded metal,
or wooden hangers. Be sure that
shoulders, sleeves, and trouser
legs are straight, collars and
lapels in place, and hems turned
down to preserve the shape and
press of the garment. There
should be sufficient room in the
closet to hang garments without
crowding. A plastic cover over
garments will keep dust from
settling on them. An exception
to using plastic covers applies
to garments of leather and fur;
these fabrics need to breathe and
plastic inhibits them.
7. Steaming clothing Is an
effective method of removing
wrinkles from woolen fabrics and
restoring velvet and velveteen
finishes. This may be done in a
closed bathroom by hanging gar
ments over the tub or shower and
letting the hot water run until
the room is full of steam. Watch
that the garment is not steamed
too long or shrinkage may result.
After a garment is steamed, allow
It to dry thoroughly before wear
ing.
If you will follow these gener
al procedures for clothing care,
you will prolong clothes life and
conserve your time and energy.
