DUNCAN Reddy Kihxwatti KITCHEN TIPS * NUMBER U To get more out of your food budget, here are a couple of food storage suggestions from our Home Service Kitchens: 1. Fresh meat should be used within a day or two of purchase. 2. Remove store wrappings from meat and wrap loosely in waxed paper, leaving the ends exposed. 3. For longer storage, meats and poultry should be carefully wrapped in moisture-vaporproof paper and stored in a freezer. • Ever need freshly baked cookies in a hurry? Keep a roll of cooky dough in your freezer or refrigerator and you can have the cookies you need in a hurry. • The most dreaded chore of most housewives is washing dishes . . . That’s why so many modern women are getting electric dish washers . . . You can have one installed in your home for pennies a day and forget about dishpan hands, sink scrubbing and all of the other dish washing drudgeries. • You'll find it easy to cut marshmallows, dates, raisins, figs, watercress, chives, pimiento and parsley with scissors. For fruits, the scissors should be wet. • Sift flour on waxed paper; it’ll save you washing a bowl. Live Better ... Electrically! It’s easy and eco- j nomical to do . . . For example, if you’d like a j free book of recipes that are especially good when prepared on an electric range, just drop a stole to our Home Service Department and ask for "Reddy’s RecipesIt’s yours uritbout charge. 1............

Local Welfare Dept, Carry8 Out Program As Set Forth By State Standards Administration of the present program by local departments of public welfare is based primarily on Title 16 of the Code of Virginia. This law sets forth the responsibilities of the State Department of Welfare and Institutions and those of the local departments, the methods to be used in carrying out these responsibilities, and the standards of operation. This means that the local boards of public welfare have the responsibility for carrying out the programs in the localities, and they have to do this according to law and also according to regulations which the State Board of Welfare has made and continues to make. Eligibility requirements for each of the types of public assistance are stated in the statutes and must be complied with; local boards cannot make their own rules. The members of your Board of Welfare feel concerned with the lack of understanding of State law and are looking for ways to help people get better acquainted with its duties as set forth in the law. They have thought that perhaps the members of the Board of Supervisors might be interested in attending the board of welfare meetings individually to talk things over and bring up any controversial cases they might want to discuss. Mr. A. H. Buckner, Supervisor of Hawthorne District, has been invited to attend the meet on April 24, 1966.
