The Greater Omaha Guide s HOME-MAKER’S CORNER I HOUSEHOLD MfM&S... Preserves Bring Bright Cheer for Winter (See Recipes Below) Let’s Preserve Wise are the women who gather their fruits and vegetables and plan ahead for winter months when food is scarce. Imagine, if you can, the thrill of knowing that your can ning cupboard holds within it the provision for several hundred meals, all the result of your own work. Last winter the women who put up pickles and preserves blessed the providence that -caused them to do it. For pre serves often made up for the plain ness of the meat dish, pickles gave a flavor touch 1 when menu vari ety was at a low ebb, and chili sauce went into hun dreds of meat dishes which other wise might have lacked for flavor. Preserves may be served with meats, fowl or plain bread. Try to gauge how much sugar you will have and allot only a portion of that for preserves this summer as you will want to use much of the canning sugar for whole fruit. To be at their best, preserves must be cooked in small batches, anyway in fairly wide pans. There Is no need for skimming preserves if they are left in the pans for five minutes after cooking time is fin ished. In warm climates where storage is difficult, they are best when processed in a water bath at sim mering temperature for 20 minutes. This will help prevent mold. Tomato Preserves, j 2 pounds tomatoes 4 cups sugar 1% cups water 1 lemon 1 stick cinnamon 2 pieces ginger root, if desired Use small, firm red, yellow or green tomatoes. Scald one minute. Dip into cold water. Skin but do not core. Combine sugar, water, lemon (sliced thin), cinnamon and ginger and simmer for 20 minutes. Add tomatoes and boil gently until they are bright and clear. Cover and let stand overnight. Pack cold toma toes into sterile jars. Boil syrup as thick as honey and pour over toma toes. Process in water bath for 15 minutes Apricot Preserves. 2 pounds apricots 314 cups sugar or corn syrup Wash, peel and halve firm, ripe apricots. Combine fruit and sugar in alternate layers. Let stand several hours or overnight. Heat slowly un til sugar dissolves, then boil rapid ly until fruit is clear. Let stand sev eral hours. Pack cold fruit into ster ile jars. Reheat syrup, boiling it Lynn Says Serve These Leftovers with Scrambled Eggs: For every six eggs used, blend in 1 cup diced, sauteed bread cubes with 1 tea spoon chopped chives. If you prefer a meaty flavor, add 1 cup sauteed chicken liver and top with several slices of cooked bacon. Fish is delicious with the egg combination. You might try Vi cup flaked fish, or Vi cup of any of the following: flaked lobster, shrimp, or crabmeat. Vegetables add eye-appealing goodness to a golden fluffy mix ture of scrambled eggs: 3 table spoons minced parsley and chives; Vi cup chopped or cooked tomatoes, in which case omit the milk from the mixture; V4 cup chopped, cooked mushrooms Lynn Chambers’ Point-Easy Menus Frankfurters Stuffed with Potato Salad Broiled Tomatoes Green Beans Celery Carrot Sticks Green Onions Sliced Rye Bread with Spread Beverage Fruit Shortcake down if not thick enough. Pour hot syrup over fruit and seal at once. Chili sauce does not require much sugar and is very good when made with the combination of spices given in the following directions: Chili Sauce. 1 gallon tomatoes 2 cups onions 2 cups sweet red peppers 1 pod hot red pepper 1 cup sugar 3 tablespoons salt 1 tablespoon mustard seed 1 tablespoon celery seed 3 tablespoons mixed spices 2}4 cups vinegar Skin tomatoes before chopping. Chop all vegetables before measur mg. Tie spices in a mixed bag. Mix all ingredients ex cept spice bag and vinegar. Add spice bag after mixture ha s boiled for 30 minutes. Cook until very thick, then add vinegar and boil until there seems to be no more free liquid. Taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Pour while hot into hot. sterile jars and seal according to manufacturer's direc tions. There are a number of other foods which you may not have preserved I>1 On.t» ' in other years that would now come in handy First of all, you may want some lovely garden or orchard fresh fruit juices. For these you will need one cup sugar to the gallon with additional sweetening when served: Canning Berry Juices. Blackberries, blueberries, logan berries, raspberries, etc., may be used. Wash, crush and simmer juices until soft. Strain through sev eral layers of cheesecloth. Add one cup sugar to each gallon of juice. Reheat to simmering and pour into hot, sterile jars. Process for 30 minutes in hot water bath at sim mering temperature (180 degrees). It's good to have tomato sauce handy for those meat and vegetable dishes throughout the winter Canned? Of course: Canned Tomato Sauce. Mix 3 quarts chopped tomatoes. 1 quart sliced onions, 1 pint chopped green peppers, 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, salt to taste and a pod ot hot red pepper. Cook slowly until thick. Then pour into sterile jars ; and process in a pressure cooker at j 10 pounds for 35 minutes or 2 hours in a boiling water bath. Canned Vegetable Soup. 5 quarts chopped tomatoes 2 quarts chopped green lima bear or 2 quarts green beans 2 quarts carrots 1 pint celery •1 tablespoons salt Cook tomatoes until soft, then press through sieve.

Tlie Loud Talk column has been doing pretty good due to the fact that all the news is so old that every body knows about it before the news is printed in the paper. It is rumored that the writer or the person that writes the news was planning to change the name of the column, the fitting name that it should be called is the “Big Mouth” due to the fact that the writer has such a big mouth. I think that they should get a style of their own instead of copying off of the Chatterbox. There has been numerous requests for the publishing of a column of characters that w'alk the streets in shame and after dark or not at all. There was a prize offered for the person who could name the thing that walks 24th street, or the most odd shaped, unusual, person that is in Omaha.

Farm Employment Total farm employment in th« United States in 1944 was about 1 per cent less than the average of the period 1935-39, according to esti mates of the Bureau of Agricul tural Economics. During 1943 the farms of the nation were operated with a total farm employment 5 per cent below the five prewar years. This means, therefore, that the total employment was reduced in 1944 about 2 per cent below the average employed during 1943. In the 1935 39 period about 10,700,000 people were engaged in farm employment on the average. Roughly three fourths of these were family work ers, and about one-fourth was hired labor. In Illinois, Indiana, Michi gan, Ohio and Wisconsin about 1,475,000 were employed on the aver age during the same period, of whom 77 per cent were family la borers. For 1944 the proportion of family labor was unchanged for the nation, but for the foregoing states the proportion represented by family labor had increased to 83 per cent CLIMAX TAILOR & HAT CLEANING SHOP • 1837 North 24th St. J.
