How many electrical
appliances do you have in
your home? The average
American has five major
and 13 portable appliances to
help out with the daily
chores.
Proper wiring is essential
for all this equipment. You

you don’t need octopus
arrangements and tangling
cords.
Equally important are
enough wiring circuits. Your
appliances won’t operate
with maximum efficiency
and economy vdthout cir
cuits to supply them with
adequate electricity-no
matter how many outlets
you have.
Check the wattage rating
stamped on each appliance

and never overload any
electrical circuit with more
than one heavy duty ap
pliance.
* Keep extra fuses of
proper size on hand. If a fuse
should blow never replace it
with a larger one.
* If you must use extension
cords for small appliances,
use heavy duty cords rated
for 15 amperes. Ordinary
light cords will overheat.
* Consult your appliance
use and care manual before
s using any new appliance.
Keep manual handy and
refer to it as needed.
*Be sure that all cords
from electrical entertaining
appliances are out of guests’
pathway to avoid accidents.
* Never immerse an ap
pliance in water unless it is
specifically labeled “im
mersible” by the
manufacturer.
* Always unplug heating
appliances and let them cool
before cleaning and storing.
Clean appliances after each
use. Check use and care book
for accurate care in
structions.
PREPARE TO SAVE
THE NUTRIENTS
Suppose you are preparing
a well-balanced evening
meal-roast beef, tossed
green salad, mashed
potatoes, and mixed
vegetables.
To save time, you peeled
and sliced all the salad
vegetables in the morning
before leaving for work. You
removed the outer leaves on
the lettuce and soaked the
remaining leaves in ice
water to retain crispness.
You also took the roast out of
the freezer in the morning
and put it in on the counter to
thaw.
That evening you peeled
and boiled the potatoes.
After thawing the frozen
mixed vegetables, you boiled
and drained them in
preparation for serving.
The scenario is complete.
Just as your family was
clamoring for dinner, you
got everything on the table
everything, that is, except
all the important nutrients
that were washed, peeled,
soaked, thawed, the boiled
away as you prepared
dinner.
?o serve your family truly
well-balanced meals, con
sider making a few changes
in food preparation
techniques. You’ll retain
vital nutrients, vitamins and
minerals by:
-scrubbing (not peeling)
vegetables "
-slicing vegetables just
before serving
-not soaking vegetables in
water
-cooking potatoes in the
skin; just scrubbing them
prior to boiling
