Families Getting
Food Education
WASHINGTON, D. C. —More
than 100,000 low-income families
already are taking part in the
expanded food and nutrition edu
cation program started in Janu
ary according to secretary of Ag
riculture Clifford M. Hardin.
"This program, conducted by
the Cooperative Extension Ser
vice, is especially helping the
families who are undernourished
because the homemaker lacks the
know-how to serve an adequate
diet from the food that is avai
lable,’’ Secretary Hardin said.
"Our local extension workers
are finding that trained program
aides already living in the neigh
borhood are most effective in
teaching the hardest-to-reach
families, through personal home
visits and word-of-mouth.’’
More than 4,300 of these pro
gram aides are now on the job,
working with poor families in
679 counties and cities through
out the country. "By July 1,”
Secretary Hardin said, "the st
ates expect to have 5,500 aides,
working with 200,000 families.’’

SAVE THOSE RINDS
Don’t throw those watermelon
rinds away. Home economists
with the University of Georgia
Cooperative Extension Service
suggest that you make them into
pickles or preserves. Remove
all the green and red portion of
the rind, cut into cubes or use a
donut cutter. Use your favorite
recipe.

Let’s celebrate the occasion by being extra sure to
eat tasty, nutritious dairy products at every meal.
Enjoy cold, refreshing milk at every meal and
encourage your friends and neighbors to do the
same. Get into the habit of drinking milk regularly.
Sharp cheddar cheese is a hard-to-beat snack. Select
from the wide choice of delicious ice cream flavors
when you order or serve dessert.
We’re proud that many dairymen in this community
are loyal Purina customers. And, we welcome this
opportunity to promote the milk and milk products
they produce.
Why not make a mid-year resolution to use more
of their dairy products in June . . . and throughout
the whole year!
