Pickens CORN SYRUP MAY BE USED IN PRESERVING Corn Syrup Successfully Used In Equal Proportion With Sugar to Save Sugar-Last Few Weeks of Canning Should be Busy Weeks. Columbia.--The canning season will soon be over and, for that reason, these last few weeks should be taken advantage of where there is fruit that may be put up for next winter's .use. Can without sugar wherever pos. sible. the Food Administration ad vises, but can by all means. Sugar used in preserving goes further'-thati' in any other form for bodily require. -nents and the Food Administration has made it possible for home canners to secure an extra allotment of sugar for that purpose. Skillful house wives will find little difficulty in tak ing care of their fruit now without 'It will be more plentiful. Corn syrup may be used successful ily in preserves, jams and jellies by using one-half corn syrup and one-halt sugar. In place of one cup of sugar, one cup of clear honey or one and two-thirds to two cups may be used. These suggestions are mad. by the Food Administration: Prepare fruit and add the sugar. Allow to stand several hours until sufficient juice to prevent burning is * extracted. Thea add the syrup and cook as usual, but do not use any water at all. It makes a very heavy syrup, which is usually desired, and does not make any difference in the savor. In making preserves and marma, lades, equal weight of corn syrup may be used, making a three-fourths syrup, instead of all sugar. One method is to make a blended syrup of (he corn syrup and sugar and cook the fruit in it. Another is to add the sugar to the gently simmerin gfruit, cook gently until it is dissoWTU' then add corn syrup (equal weight, pound for pound with the sugar) and boil fast.

LESS SUGAR NEEDED TO SWEETEN TEA THAN COFFEE Save the waste. 100 million cups of coffee are used daily in the United States. 700 million cups of tea are used daily in the United States. 170 million cups of tea and coffee. It even an average of half a tea spoon of sugar per cup is left undis solved at the bottom of the cups of tea and coffee, the waste would be 1, 700,000 pounds of sugar daily.

How is it in your home? Isn't there a chance for sav ing? MAXIMUM Preservation of Fruit With MINIMUM Sugar. The sugar shortage is one of the in conveniences of the war. It is not a tragedy. A little consideration and resourcefulness will quickly help to lessen the inconvenience. Housewives who have been accus tomed to preserving fruits with quan titles of sugar should not view the Iresent sugar shortage as a death knell to their plans for conserving the fruit surplus. It is important that these fruits be saved for winter use. Housewives who have been accus tomed to preserving fruits with quan titles of sugar should net view the present sugar shortage as a death knell to their plans for conserving the fruit surplus. It is important that these fruits be saved for winter use. Sugar is desirable in preserving fruit, but it is not necessary to ith suc cess. There are three things which the housewife should do to help in the sugar conservation program: 1. Preserve a part of the fruit -by methods requiring no sugar. 2. Preserve a part of the fruit with a greatly reduced supply of sugar. 3. Preserve a part of the fruit by replacing some of the sugar ordinar ily used with other sweeteners. When canning without sugar fruits may be put up by the usual methods, using for -the liquid, water alone in stead of sirup. Unsweetened fruit juice may be used in plage of sirup. Unsweetened fruit juice may be concentrated to a thin sirup and used in place of sugar. Fruit may be canned with one-half or one-fourth the usual amount of su gar. The sweetness of the sirup in which fruits are canned may be re duced. In making jams, marmalades and butters, reduce the volume of fruit pulp one-third to one-half by boiling, then measure and add only one-half sugar by weight Instead of the cus tomary three-fourths. Other sweeteners may be used in stead of sugar., Honey-If honey is obtainable it may be used weight fer wei~ht to re. place part or aHl of the sugar in any given recipe except ii jelly making. Three-fourths of a, cup of honey weighs about as mueh as a cup of sugar. Molassos--Molasses may be used as a substitute for sugar with such strong flavored fruita as plums and cranber ries. Tlohv.la of molasses remains prominent. Sorghum-All grain uirups are like molasses, giving a decided flavor to the product. Glucose or Corn Birup--These sirups may be used to replace thmfee-fourths of the sugar by weight in any given recipe except jelly making. Three fourths of a cup of these sirups IweigtH -.out as much as at cup of sugar. Sugar is 1 1-2 to 2 times as sweet as these sirhps. ANNOUNCEM ENT For State.
