Home and Food Notes
BY HELEN B. SASSER
County Extension Home Economist
Small children are often intrigued by the odd shapes and
colors of medicine containers. Since they can’t read the words
on the bottle, they “read” these colors and shapes.
The shape of medicine containers can fascinate little
children, especially the one to four years of age group. The
color may remind them of something they like to eat. And if
these containers are left within their reach, you have the ingre
dients of a possible accident,
Houston County parents learn from the label on prescription
medicine the instructions the doctor believes they should have.
They also learn from the labels on other medicines whether they
are for adults only or whether there are certain conditions and
specific situations for which the medicine is intended.
These vital facts remain a mystery to a small child. So
until ypur small children are old enough to read and follow
direction be on the safe side and keep all medicines beyond
their reach.
♦** * *
TIMESAVING FOODS
Convenience foods save time in the home. And they usually
cost more than home prepared dishes. In some cases these
convenience foods may have fewer ingredients than the home
prepared products.
What does this mean for the average Houston County home
maker? According to Miss Nelle Thrash, Extension food pre
servation specialist at the University of Georgia, this means
Houston County homemakers should compare before purchasing
these convenience foods.
It is a good idea to compare to see if you find it to your
advantage to prepare convenience foods in the home and store
them on the pantry shelf or in the food freezer.
Here in the Houston County Extension Service office, we
have several publications on the preparation of convenience
foods. Interested homemakers are welcome to come by and
select the information they need. We are located in the old
State Patrol building.

CLOTHING TIP
If you haven’t done so already, it is time to get all of those
winter clothes and woolen blankets cleaned and ready for
storage. It is such a disappointment to have one of your favorite
garments ruined by moths.
It is important to have your winter garments cleaned before
storing them. This way they will be ready for use next fall.
When washing any woolens to be stored away, dissolve a
dozen mothballs in the last rinse water.
A tried and true method of keeping the pesky moths out of
your clothing is to place a saucer of pipe tobacco on a shelf
in the closet. There’s no detectable odor, yet it works. And
remember to include some newspaper as wrapping, when storing
away woolen clothes. Moths and silverfish hate newsprint.
J *****
* IT’S A FACT!
The itching sensation that some people mistake for ambition
is merely inflammation of the wishbone.
