We women have to save enough used fats in ouf kitchens to help make munitions, medicines, fabrics, soap for military and civilian use, and many other essentials. The job, to date, has been done largely by city people, because arrangements for collecting the fats were made in the cities^ first. And these city folks are turning in' more than twelve million pounds a month! c Now we’re called on. And will the women on the farms and in the towns and small cities break that record? • 1 4‘‘ ■ Don’t worry —just watch our speedf HOW TO DO IT i Save all used fats in a tin can. Keep it handy to the stove. Scrape your broilers and roasting pans, skim soups and gravies, for every drop counts. Keep solid pieces of fat, as meat trimmings and table scraps, in a bowl. Melt down once a week when your oven’s going, add the liquid fat to the salvage can. Take the can to your butcher as soon as it’s full. He will give you two red points and up to four cents for every pound. If you have any difficulty, call your County Agent or Home Demonstration Agent.
