Share Seeds

It's Patriotic to Pool SV? Garden Packet With Neighbor. America has a new kind of share program—strictly a war“Share the seed” is the new slogan. If youre planning a victory garden—and the department of

agriculture hopes you are—get in touch with your Nelghbor before buying seeds. Seed production this year was at record level and government officials figure there will be enough to go around-if none is wasted. The ordinary 10-cent package of vegetable seeds usually has enough for several small gardens and it’s important that victory gardeners do not discard seeds they can’t plant. So, the agriculture department is asking all amateur farmers to share their seed packets. If soldiers share hardships to win on .the fighting front, gardeners can share seeds for victory on the home front.

Tarkington Tells Marine |

Americans Accepting Program.

Americans will accept rationing

and it will help Build civilian mo-

rale, Booth Tarkington said in an]: article written especially for “Ra-|

tionews,” publication of the Marion county rationing boards. ,. He cited a letter he received from a young relative, a marine on Guadalcanal, who inquired about morale of civilian life. “Perhaps, however,” famed Indiana author,” this concern is characteristic of more soldiers than we think. Perhaps, indeed (and oughtn’t it to make us feel humble if not humiliated?) most of America’s fighting men are generous enough in the midst of their dangers to worry about us. “Maybe they are wise, too. to give a thought to our morale. Possibly they are instinctively aware that in all grim truth our morale is important to their futures as theirs is to ours.” Mr. Tarkington said that he replied to the marine. He said in part: . That everyone at home was working . hard and but with one eager purpose, that all of us of all ages (except for a scant few congenital squeakers) were not merely adapting ourselves to rationing but were welcoming it—and wagting more of it—because we knew it was our chance to contribute in concert to the fueling and feeding of those whom it were indeed better for our most selfish selves that we do heapingly fuel and feed.

HOME FRONT FORECAST

By BETTY MacDONALD Times Special Writer

‘WASHINGTON, March 26.—Compared with the canned goods program, housewives will discover the meat, fats, fish and cheese points liberal and ample. Each household member receives 16 points, so the ration problem will be fairly simple. = Here's a model menu for the week, designed to use advantageously all 64 points on a four-person family ration book.

SUNDAY — Mrs. America

might plan her week's big meal around a six-pound roast

of lamb (24 points). She'll be .

splurging, but there'll probably be enough left over for later on in the week. MONDAY=-An economical meal is a couple of pounds of stuffed heart, using up six points. If hearts don’t appeal, try brains at the same point value, or pigs’ feet. TUESDAY — Cut up remains of Sunday’s lamb roast for a lamb pie, which is a wonderful wartime meal, involving plenty of carrots, parsley, onions, potatoes, peeled thin for the best nutrient value, and vegetable juices. : WEDNESDAY-An egg souffle, perhaps varied as a spinach souffle, makes a good main dish. Eggs are plentiful and contain almost the same protein content as meat. In this way you save points on Wednesday, hoarding for a treat over Saturday. THURSDAY-—Heavy soups are’ as nutritious as whole meats, if properly prepared, so for a mere one point, get a cracked soup bone from the butcher, boil it for four or five hours to get the marrow and good out of it. Then add cabbage, carrots, celery tops, parsnips, potatoes, onions and other odds and ends, including, perhaps, that leg of lamb bone. This soup, with a heavy dessert, salad and biscuits, solves the meat problem for Thursday. FRIDAY-—Traditional fish day, is another ration-pointless day if you buy fresh fish, which is plentiful now on most markets. Figure on about 2% pounds, with chowder in mind for leftovers. ‘ SATURDAY=-Treat the family to two pounds of Swiss steak or any of the heef cuts in the 8-point bracket, You can extend the meal with heavy gravy and biscuits, plenty of vegetables and potatoes. » ” 8 8 » # " Meanwhile, you plan on using a pound of butter during the week, at 8 Points. After everything has been totaled (55 points) you discover you have nine points left over, which might be used for rind-on bacon (7 points) er cheeses for luncheons through the week. Tamales, at 2 points, would be another: luncheon item. Lunches, meanwhile, must be figured kB i

April stamps became valid yesterday and may be used for the remaining days in March and all of April. Most housewives, however, probably will refrain from using them until the new point values are announced because of the impending changes. March stamps must be used by March 31 or become worthless. .
