Garden specialists list to ; matoes as the most importan ;; vegetable to be grown in victory ’'gardens. Why? A. Tomatoes are the richest available Georgia source of vita -1 min C, being exceeded in vila . min C content only by oranges. > Easy to grow in Georgia soils they require plenty of sunshine . and moderate even soil moisture. ; In addition to vitamin C they are good for vitamin A, They are a palatable food, canned or fresh, served as juice or in pickles and relishes. They are the easiest vegetable to can. They can be' called crop No. 1 for home gard ens. They can be grown over a ■ 1 ng season. Q. How many tomato plants should a gardener grow? A. For small gardens,a dozen to 15 plants for each member of the family should provide enough tomatoes for serving fresh and some to can. However, in view of the general food situation thei i family with enough space might 1 well grow from one-tenth to one-| twentieth of an acre to provide' ; from want. The surplus can be made into a variety of choice products such as catsup, chili 1 sauce, puree, canned tomatoes and vegetable mixture w h e n combined with corn, okra and butterbeans. The green toma toes on the vine just before j frost make delicious iceberg! pickle, chow chow and relish. Q. Should jars of freshly j canned food be allowed to cool! in the processing vessel or pres-! sure canner? A. No. It is important to re-[ move the jars from the pressure j canner as soon as or about onei minute after the guage has re turned to zero, and from the | water bath as soon as the pro cessing time is complete. CLINCHFIELD MEETING A series of special services will be held at Clinchfield Presbyteri an church beginning Sunday’ night, May 27, and continuing! through the following Friday night, June 1. These services will be con ducted by Rev. Frank Sells, of Columbia College, Columbia, S. C. Everybody is cordially in vited to come out and take part. Services begin at 8:15 p, m. i MARINE CORPS WANTS WOMEN VOLUNTEERS Women of Georgia still have an opportunity to serve their country in the Marine Corps as this famous military organization is continuing to enlist women on a replacement basis, according to an announcement by Captain Andrew R. Davis, Officer in Charge, Marine Corps Recruiting Station, 411 Bibb Building Ma con, Georgia. The women in this vicinity, who are interested in serving their country as a member of the Marine Corps Women’s Reserve may write or call in person at the Macon Office for full par ticulars and learn about the dif ferent jobs women are perform ing in the Marine Corps. Captain Davis again stressed the fact we should bear in mind that the war in the Pacific is far from be ing ended, and that more women are needed to release trained Ma rines for combat duty. BEEF CATTLE The upward swing in the num ber of beef cattle on Georgia farms which started in 1938 con tinued through 1944, the Exten sion Service reports. There was a six percent increase in beef cattle on Georgia farms in 1944 and 1943, bringing the total number to approximately 708,- 000. Many Georgia farmers are merting the labor shortage by increasing their cattle herds and developing pasture. PEANUT STATE Georgia continues to lead all states in peanut acreage and pro duction.
