Hi-Lites It'i Strawberry Tone According to the U. S. Depart- Acrrtriilfiira t.hwp'll be plenty of strawberries this year. Plan to use them for family meals while they are plentiful.

Look now for recipes using strawberries so you can vary your menus. And when you've eaten all you can, freeze some. Strawberries are the pride of the freezer. They keep their natural color and fresh flavor many months after strawberry time has passed. Select firm, ripe strawberries about quart fresh berries for each pint of sliced berries to be frozen.

Wash, drain, remove hulls, and slice the berries. Mix I cup sugar with 5 cups sliced Turn berries over and over until sugar is dissolved and Juice is formed. Pack berries in wide-mouthed, pint or quart containers. Leave lj inch space at the top of pints, 1-inch space in quarts. Place a small piece of crumpled waxed paper on top of the berries to hold them down in the Juice.

Seal the container and label the package with name of fruit and date frozen. Freeze and store at 0 degrees P. or lower.

It means a man is in no mood to do the little chore you want him to do, and if you keep on bringing up the subject he will shortly accuse you of nagging. "Is that what you're going to wear?" Isnt a question either. It's a man's polite way of saying, "I never liked that dress on you and I wish you wouldn't wear it." "Don't go to a lot of trouble" means your husband expects you to have the house spotless, a perfect company meal prepared, every detail worked out and make no commotion about it, so he can assume that you entertain as easily as other women pretend they do.
