CANNING CORN. Now is the time to answer the call of the canning club and save the food of the nation, says today's bulletin from the National Emergency Food Garden Commiasion. which Is co-op-erating with this paper in a nationwide campaign for the conservation of war garden produce. Send a twocent stamp for postage at 210 Maryland Bldg.. Washington. D. C., and you will get the manuals on drying J and canning free of charge. i The lesson for today to oom and for < aiming or drying on the cob. I corn should be of medium ripeness. | Eor fanning on the cob. select ' corn of uniform ripeness and size and proceed with the canning as soon as possible after the corn is picked If too ripe, the corn will turn dark in sterilization and it will be rather hard and tough; if not ripe enough, it , will he flat when served. Remove husk, silk and shank and any defectlive parts. Blanch the corn in boiling water for six minutes and plunge quickly into cold water for a few minutes. Pack in Jars, alternating tips and butts, and a level teaspoonful to each quart and fill jars with boiling water. Place tops in position, partially tighten them and sterilize three hours and a halt in boiling water. Remove jars, tighten tops and invert to cool in place free from draughts. Corn Off the Cob—Blanch corn in boiling water for six minutes, plunge quickly into cold water for a few mos ments and cut the corn from the cob with a sharp, thin-bladed knife, cutting half to two-thirds down the kernel and scrape out remainder; always cut from the tip toward the | butt. Fil jars at once to within a quarter of an inch of the top, fa Id a level teaspoonful of salt to the quart and fill with boiling water. Adjust and partially tighten tops and sterlilize for three hours and a half in boiling water. After complete sterilization. remove from boiling water, tighten tops and invert to cool in -place free from draughts. The whole I process of canning corn should be carried on as rapidly as possible. Drying Corn Off the Cob—Prepare corn as for canning and cut from cob with or without blanching, being careful to save all the milk which iis pressed out. Dry the corn alone or mix it with sugar and salt in a ! double boiler at the rate of five pounds of corn. % cup sugar and , cup of salt. Keep stirring until milk’ is absorbed, spread mass on plates or trays and dry in a slow oven, or in the sun, occasionally stirring to prevent scorching it in the oven. The Home Canning and Drying | Manuals may be obtained by sending ■ a two-cent stamp to the National ' Emergency Food Garden Commis- ! sion, at 210 Maryland Bldg.. Washingj ton. D. C. FOOD CONSERVATION. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug., 16 —(Special ;to Daily Democrat —Dr. Harry E. Barnard. Indiana's food director, today urged scientific eating for every ! resident of the state, as a valuable aid in the nation’s “win the war” food campaign. He said: “The scientist looks at the human body through the same glasses through which he views an automoi bile. He knows that it takes a ceri tain amount of fuel to run the huI man engine just as it does the engine I made in the machine shop from iron ' and steel. He also knows that the amount of fuel required depends altogether upon the amount of work to be done. A racing automobile burns large quantities of gas and much oil. A man hard at work likewise needs much fuel. ’ 1 "We measure food values in calories just as we measure weight by the pound. A calorie means the amount ( of energy that a given food contains. It is easy to calculate how much energy a man at vigorous, muscular work requires to keep him going I from morning until night. It is also I easy to analyze the food he eats to ■ determine how much energy it conI tains in the form of fat and protein 1 and sugar and starches. We have , then a simple system of measurement ’ which onece understood can be used in the preparation of every meal and ; in serving food to every member of the household. “The food experts have measured the daily energy requirement for . each pond of busy weight. The fol- > lowing table shows that number of ' calories one must take in his food , to mee the needs of the body. Daily energy requirement for each ; pound of body weight: For a person at complete rest, 14 to 16 calories. For a person doing light work, 16 1 to 18 calories. ,' For a person doing moderate work, J 18 to 20 calories. | For a person doing hard work, 20 . to 23 calories. "Complete rest includes reading, resting and sitting at meals. "Light work consists of walking, standing at one’s work, as in cooking, dish washing, or bed making, hand and machine sewing, typewriting and the like. "Moderate work not only involves a

|. oud mm muscle* but ttl *° C ! U T I enough strain to harden and en ar«e 'them Outdoor farm wort, house dmled under this heading. Lumber ;;; excavating and certain farm activities constitute even heavier work i ,h ""n order to determine the amount • of food one should eat to keep in good • condition is only necessary to multiI ply th e body weight by the number of 1 calorie* suggested as sufficient for a person at the different kinds of work 1 shown in the table, and then to sele t . the foods and the amounts of each which will supply the demand. oI COW WAS MILKED. 1 A very disagreeable surprise await- ' e d Mr. and Mrs. John Barnett of 1 Mercer avenue this morning when ' they went to milk their cow which had been on pasture, and found, that ’ instead of the large bucket of milk which she gives every morning, there was only a very little, someone hav- ' ing milked her during the night. Consequently the Barnett's milk custo- : m ers were not supplied this morning. The milking has been going on for some time, but not quite so heavy as last night. A still more disagreeable surprise than that received by the owners of the cow awaits the milkers if they persist. daily market - report east buffalo. East Buffalo. N Y..
