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.

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.

and clear--self-pronouncing. The four

bound with this sailors and soldiers
