GREENWOOD, S. C.
CONGRATULATIONS to the
people of McCormick County for
the way they are backing up our
fighting men with investments
in War Bonds and Stamps! Dur
ing May McCormick County put
over $12,000.00 dollars into Bonds,
and the quota was only $4,100.00
. . . But wait a minute! We have
not finished the job yet. We won’t
finish the iob until the war is
won.
The report for June is not so
good, so far. Our chairman says
we are yet on the bottom round.
We must continue buying bonds
and stamps if the Japs and
Nazis are to be defeated.
It isn’t easy to make slaves out
of thirty-two million people . . .
to break their spirits and make
them produce. But the Nazis have
done a very scientific job. They
plan to do the same job over here
on us. And here is what you and
I must do about it. We must re
fuse to spend money for anything
we do not need. We must fill
our new quota for Bonds and
Stamps ... a quota which means
we should each invest at least
ten per cent of our income! I’ll
put up my ten per cent. How
about you?

Sugar Goes Farther
In Canned Fruit
Than In Jam
A little sugar will go a lot far
ther in canning fruit than in
making jams and sweet preserves,
says Miss Matilda Bell.
In canning a pint jar of fruit,
such as apricots, apples, peaches,
sweet cherries, pears or plums,
about a cupful of light siruo is
used to fill up the jar. It takes
1-4 cup of sugar and 1 cup of
water to make this cupful of light
sirup. Thirty per cent by weight
of the sugar required to can
peaches and pears could be re
placed by corn sugar. Quick
sweet pickles are acceptable when
made with a thirty per cent sub
stitution by measure of corn sir
up or corn sugar.
When making jelly, jam, mar
malade, preserves, and conserves
more sugar is needed to obtain
the right consistency. As an J
example, a pound of strawberries
takes about 1 pound of sugar for
strawberry jam.
On this basis the sugar used in
making 1 pound of fruit into
preserves would be enough for
light sirup for 4 or 5 pounds of ;
canned fruit. As a matter of
fact, Miss Bell points out, fruits
may be canned without sugar, and
are frequently canned sugarless
for people on sugar-free diets.
However, the shape, color, and
flavor of the fruits are retained
better when sugar, in the form of
sirup, is added at the time of
canning.
Canned fruit is an important
part of a well-rounded winter
bill of fare, but jelly, jam marma
lade, and preserves are chiefly
relishes.
