A Sugar Kitchen Card
| ®very housewife throughout the
land knows there is a sugar short
age. Perhaps she has gone to ithe
grocery in a hurry to give a 26-pound
order of sugar for canning and pre
gerving and has been told she must
sign a certificate issued by her local
¥ood Administrator. Or perhaps she
bes asked for a 6 or 10 pound bag
ot granulated sugar for cooking and
#able use and Bas had stingily meted
ut to hér a one or two pound bag.
*“Do tell us, them, exactly how much
sugar we may have and help us to
mnke that go rousd,” is the universal
.ery. And that is exactly what the
¥ood Administration wants to do.
Every territory, down to the small
antown or hamiet, has a looal Fobd
ministrator who is issuing the na
ml rulings as f::'u they Gome |
from Washingtdn. The present maxi
mum sugar ratfon for houbehold use
ds 2 pounds per person per month.
“This means 1 ounce per day or about
€ 25 level teaspootittls. Pit that on
your kitchen card where you can see
#t from time to time.
Included in this 2-pound ruling, so
far, are all cane and beet sugars, as
vwell as all raw sugars, browh SUgArSs,
sand refiners’ soft sugars.
Sweetenings net included in this,
#hen, are maple sugar, various kifids
«of sirups, hondy and fruit Juices. Z‘
proper amount of thm: use in r
fMpes that call for stigak must be grad
amlly learned; but in_ plase of one cup
of sugar the same ashount of honey is
vgenerally used, whila 158 #o 3 cups of

There are certain “do’s” amd “do
mots” that may be found: .mdntive
and helpful on a sugar kité&o’n card:
. Do not serve sugar desserts.
! Do not sweeten fruit indiscrimi
nately.
Do not hoard;—buy only two pounds
‘at a time if you are a city dweller,
or five pounds if you live remote from
jmarkets. oo
Do not use sugar on cereals when
4@rait juices will do as well.
° Do not put an open sugar bowl on
#the table.
. Do not froat your cakes.
" Po use fruit juices for sweetening
summer drinks.
Do can and preserve fruits without
sugar, whenever possible. .
Do return to the grocer any unused
balance left from canning allotment.
Do remember that our soldiers need
sugar more thin we do.
On every sugar kitchen card should
be writ large a reminder to consult
the Fair Price List, as published from
time to time, when buying sugsar. In
this, as in all other commodities, the
‘United States Food Administration is
*trying to stabilize the retail price
.throughout the country and any over
wharge should be reported to the local
Administrator.
We are heirs of great happenings.
Bhall we surrender. our inheritance?

Making The Old Dessert
' Into A Patriotic One
A dessert cannot be patriotic and
have sugar as one of its constituents
and yet a dessert cannot be a des
sert unless it is sweet and deligious.
Our problem is therefore to change the.
old recipe which contains sugar into
a new one that is equally as sweet.
Maple sugar, maple syrup, cora
syrup, homey or molasses may be
usefl for the sweeténing of custards,
junkets, gelatiné desserts, c¢lear jel
lies, sponges, frozen dishes, ice creams,
mousse steamed, cereal or tapioca
puddings or fresh fruits. The cheioe
of the sweetening is & matter of tasts.
In place of one oup of sugar called
for in the old rq&p ‘“03: cup of
honey or frofh 128 to 3 ¢ of eora
syrup. Approximately the same sweet-.
ness is obtained.
. Singe every cup of syrup or homey,
turnishes % of a tup of liquid for ev
ery cup of syrup or honey that is sub-’
stituted fer sugar reduce the original
amount of the liquid in the recipe %
cup.
Naval officers and their families
who buy at commissary stores have
gone on the honor eystem of sugar
purchase established by the Food A 4
ministration for oivilians.

The Common Table
To the average American the ques
tion of food has been mainly one of
purchasing from the nearest grocer
and butcher what appetite and In
come dictate. Where that food comes
from, how much there is of it in the
world, how universal its consumption,
has been none of his concern. He
could get what he wanted if e could
pay for it and nothing else mattered.
But when America entered the world
war and pooled her interests with her
associates, the whole food situation
changed. This change concerns not
only governments, but the individual.
We have become internationally mind
ed even in the matter of food; and
today every American must look on
himself as a citizen of the world—a
hungry world—when deciding what
shall go on his table. Before he helps
himself, he must stop and ask, “What
is there to eat?” and “How many peo
ple are there to eat 87 Tor
must all sit down to a common table.
Not only have we pooled war inter
ests, hut we have pooled food re
sources with the Allies.
Restaurants and hotels are restrict
ed to two pounds of sugar for every
ninety meals served. This includes
sugar for kitchen as well as table use.
e i
Sugar bowls have been banished
from American dining cars—a travelar
is served his portion of sugar and no
ore.

Soa Foedhg Test Held At Tal
mo, Georgia, Shows.
7That sorghum refuse, called bagasse,
is a very cheap feed when combined
with cotton seed meal and velvet beans
has been shown by a feeding test car
ried on by the Btate College of Agri
culture at Talmo last winter. The
bagasse was a by-product of the man
‘ufacture of sorghum syrup and gave
excellent results as a feed.
It was fed as a roughage for one
hundred and tem days and in deter
mining the final resuits it was tharged
at $6 a ton. The velvet beahs were
charged at $24 a ton and the cotton
seed meal at $456 a ton. When all the
expenses had been paid there was a
profit of $3.63 a head and in addition
there were three hundred loads of
good stable manure worth approxi
mately three dollars a load.
The bagasse contained from 1.2 to
1.4 times as much digestible material
as corn sorghum, and the fifty native
bred Shorthorn and Hereford steers
to which it was fed made an average
daily gain of 1.61 pounds per head for
the entire period. It proved to be an
excellent carbonaceous feed.
It has been well recognized for a
number of years that cottonseed meal
is a good concentrate for finishing off
beef cattle but there has always been
a shortage of carbonaceous feeds for
roughage. In this feeding experiment
material that had formerly been al
lowed to go to waste was conserved
and proved itself to be a very cheap
source for roughage for feeding with
such concentrates as cottonseed meal
and velvet beans. Now since, Geor
gia is so well adapted to the growing
of sorghum, and since there is a world
shortage of sugar, thousands of gal
lons of this syrup should be produced
and the refuse fed to dairy and beef
cattle, and not be allowed to go to
waste —Editor State College of Agri
culture.
In Georgia That War Industries
May Be Supplied.
By burning wood Georgiahs must
save two million tons of coal this win
ter in order that our rapidly growing
war industries may be fully supplied.
The governmenut used fifty million
tons last year in_its war activities,
but this year it will need approximate
ly one hundred and fifty million tons.
It is almost impossible for the mines
to greatly increase their output im
view of the serious shortage of labor,
and hence all of the extra coal that
i& needed by the governinent must Be
saved by the people. Georgia's share
in the saving is 6,000,000 tons.
Ceal is the very basis of the activi
tiee of our armies. There is not a
single war commodity or activity
that is not dependent on coal, that
has not directly or indirectly the pow
er of coal somewhere in itk production.
It takes coal to operate munition
plants, move troops by _rail, propel
transport ships, keep our mnavy on
guard, and then move food, soldiers
and munitions te the front. Coal is
the fuel best adapted to war purposes.
When we burn wood, we not only re
lease coal for war purposes but we
relieve the congestion of the railroads,
clearing the tracks that men and sup
‘pNes may move more rapidly towards
‘the front.
The relatlve heat value of wood to
%coal is much higher than is ordinari
ly thought. One cord of seasoned ash,
}oak. or hickory is eguivalent to one
;ton of soft coal. The fuel value de
’creases with pine, cypress and cotton
wood, and with the amount of season
‘ing. Our wood supply in Georgia is
’large enough to supply all our needs.
The annual growth of cord wood
greatly exceeds the annual consump
tion and this will still hold true if
wood entirely replaced c¢oal for home
use.
If every family in Georgia would
reduce its consumption of coal by fif
ty per cent, the amount asked of us
by the Government could be easily
saved. Many families in the rural dis
tricts will find it possible to entirely
replace coal with wood. In every case
coal must be used economically. The
Federal Fuel Administration will en
deavor to distribute what little coal
that will be allowed for this state, to
only the largest cities that meed it
worst and to those industrial plants
manufacturing products essential to
the war.
Farmers who have cut larger sup
plies of wood than they need, should
get in touch with their county agents
and local fuel administrators. Thess
men are co-operating and are ready to
assist farmers in marketing their
wood. It is not yet too late to cut
a good supply of cord wood. Those
who wish to harvest wood for fuel
purposes and at the same time im
prove their future stands of timber,
should communicate with E. W. Had
ley, extension forester, Georgia State
College of Agriculture. Demonstra
tions will be given throughout the
State on the proper methods of cut
ting and thinning woodlands.
Every one is asked to help. The
Fuel Administration points out that
the best way is to Burn Weood and Save
Coal.

| STONE MOUNTAIN BILL
(An ode to a statesman by an ex-Tennessean)
I've listened to the eagles scream through Sunny Tennessee,
I've heard the orators proclaim from Carmack down to Lea.
And quite a few of those, my friends, could stir the scenery.
Stump speakers in that grand old state are natur’ly jes’ born,
And orators are nursed and raised like wheat and oats and corn.
Yet I've heard a Georgia Cracker, who can put the bunch to scorn,
For when it comes to stumping with the accent on the stump—
When it comes to thumping with the accent on the thump—
'l hand it to Stone Mountain Bill: By Gosh, that man can hump!
With the sharp wit of a Carmack, plus Bob Taylor’s sunny soul,
And the eloquence of Patierson to spur him to the goal,
Stone Mountain Bill can stir ’em like the matchless ones of old.
There’s a touch of old Abe Lincoln in his make-up, I surmise,
There’s a passion for the masses—you can see it in his eyes—
And the pep—Ye Gods, he’s got it—that old zip that never dies,
Brilliance, courage, plus old horse sense—’tis a mixture hard to beat
Such a man éommarsds attention when he gets up on his feet,
Such a 2 man is not on'speaking terms with that old word, defeat.
I know little of your politics—ain’t been here very long—
Don’t know which candidate is weak and which of them is strong;
Which issues in the race are right and which of them are wrong.
Yet I've mixed a good deal, fellows, with the politieisn clan;
I can tell the big league from bush—at least I think I can—
And I'll lift my lid to old Bill Schley and say HERE iS A MAN. :
. 4 —MORGAN BLAKE.
