By ANN STEVICK ~ ‘Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Aug. 23—Experiments are going on in the department of agriculture to test the value of enrichment of maca-

roni products. As other foods be-

come scarce, the use and foodvalue of the increasing supply of

macaroni’ products becomes. _more

important. Manufacturers are pushing a ‘compulsory enrichment program which awaits a hearing with the food and drug administration. If the compulsory . enrichment of flour goes into: effect, which it is expected to do, macaroni products; will be Proporionaiely ‘benefitted. » os ” SEMOLINA, a high - protein grantilar product from hard durum wheat, is used with flour. to keep macaroni - from being ‘mushy or sticky when cooked. : Manufacturers see no reason why this should not be enriched to build up the préstige and food-value of macaroni products. The department of agriculture’s

experiments - have shown that’

some of the added value of enrichment is lost when macaroni is cooked in the customary quantities of water. ; It can be cooked as well in a

much smaller quADIY of .water, ‘and the water used thicken ‘gravies or sauces. No coffee splurge i» war--ranted. Although the supply ‘is.

up now, it still takes shipping space to maintain it. We still:

‘need the space for raw sugar and

molasses which are needed An’

alas, in this day of critical Ts problems—many washable fabrics: will’ ‘be - specially. treated with a: new chemical which will keep’ them from spotting and wilting. Another wistful thought: If rayon, now used for cartridge and’ powder bags, could - substitute for the nylon that is going for military uses, you might see more than “the expected one pair of" nylon stockings to every 35 women. ,'. . Take good care of your draperies and bed-spreads. The people who make them are not deterred from the draft. . . . By October, your grocer should have the ‘ fabulously nutritious soya flour and grits in one-and two-pound packages at 12 to 15 cents a pound . . . Manufacturers who ‘substitute the recently released supply of cotton linters for other materials will be Fenuireq ! to revise their prices.

‘WEEKLY ALMANAC FOR VICTORY GARDENERS

The nation has met its goal in the number of Victory Gardens. Now if the surplus food from these gardens is canned, stored, or dried, we will have about as many vegetables for this winter as we normally have when the whole commercial pack is available for civilian use.

Victory Gardeners are looking ahead to next year. They had a lot of experience this year in securing a garden spot, getting it plowed, planting the garden, fighting insects, and in many other garden problems.

If you do not own your garden plot,"now would be a good time ‘to make arrangements to use it again next year. Any garden crops that have gone to seed should be allowed to mature the seed for next year’s planting,

Turnips, leaf lettuce, radishes and spinach may be seeded in the Victory Garden this week. The soil where these crops are to be planted should be forked up and pulverized in order to Wold moisture to start the small seedlings. If the garden can be watered, the newly seeded area should be watered during dry weather to keep

the crops growing. Cultivate fall

crops to keep the soil loose.

Turnips are semi-hardy and will . thrive well during the cool fall days. Sow the seeds thinly in. rows and do not cover with more

than a quarter inch of soil., The

seeds are very small and tender plants are easily buried by covering with too much soil. After the plants are two inches above ground, they should be thinned to stand two to three inches apart. in the row. After killing frost pull up the turnips, remove tops and store in a moist cool storage place.

ister during this period, he said.

Only those who have stored

vegetables can realize the value of this home-grown supply of food and appreciate the saving ‘in cost resulting from growing and stor-

ing this part of the family’s win-

ter food. - This saving is an important thing for the town gardener. to think about and plan on. Do not let vegetables go to waste after they are grown, The quality of many vegetables is dependent upon the time and stage at which they are harvested.

It is not good for early potatoes to permit them to remain in the hot ground after the vines are dead. After the potatoes are dug, put them in crates and store in a cool place, They should be cov- | ered with old sacks, tarpaulins. or other material so ‘that not: even’ stray light can touch them, to’ keep their flavor from becoming strong, However, remember that early potatoes do not always keep well and may not be desirable for keeping through the winter,
