Use the application in your new Ration Book for this purpose Cunning su^ar will he allowed for all fresh fruits, including citron and wild fruits. Miirrow. tomatoes and pumpkins are considered as vegetables and no canning sugar will lie allowed for them.

Don't try uml decide exactly llic num- ber of each kind of fruit yon plan to put up. Some fruits may be more plentiful than others.

Four (4) cups make a quart, lu this way you will be able to estimate the lumber of quarts of jam or jelly your jars will hold. Then allow iVi Ibs. of sugar per quart for your requirements. For example, for 8 quarts of jam or jelly, you will require 12 Ibs. of sugar. Estimates !.-.,! on these methods are within the canning sugar ration, anil the amounts .in- satisfactory for wartime canning and jam .mil jelly making, as proven by teat in the Dominion O.-p.n IUI.-MI of Agriculture experimental kitchens. IMPORTANT NOTE The Dominion Department of Agriculture recommends canning fruit in preference to making jam or jelly because: More fruit can be put up with less sugar and at loss cost. Canned fruit retains more of the vitamin value of the fresh fruit. WHEN AND HOW CANNING SUGAR WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE VVhen your Local Ration Board has re- viewed your application you will be pro- vided, sometime before June 1st. with special canning sugar coupons. The* cou- pons will eiititlf you to buy sugar, at any grocery store, at specified intervals. You do not have to buy all your sugar a t once.

Don't use canned fruits on your table when fresh fruiU are available. Plan to use your home-canned fruits in the winter months only. Mrs. Jones has deouled that her canning programme will be 40 quarts of fruit of different kinds. She nllmvs une-half pound of sugar for each quart, uiul therefore will need 40 pounds of su^ar for fanning. She decides that she will put up quarts of jam and jelly. Sin- nllim.H 1 i. a pouiulu of sugar for each quart of jam, tuul therefore will need pounds of augur for j.i'n and jelly making.
