Invest in yourself by Serving two vegetables potatoes every day. Serving greens twice a week. Serving tomatoes three times a week, Serving some vegetable every day Vegetables will always bring you a good rate of interest. Use a var- iety of them. One hundred and twenty women in Lancaster County have answered a questionnaire sent out to them on the vegetables grown this year, the vegetables canned this year, and vegetables which can be purchased fresh at the store in their commun- ity. An inexpensive barrel pit makes an ideal place to store cabbage, beets, parsnips, rutabagas, salsify, and winter radishes, according to the County Agent Bucher. Placed in a horizontal position in the side of a bank or ina well drained location, the barrel can be covered with a layer of soil, Mr. Bucher says. The barrel head makes a convenient door. As soon as the vegetables are put inside, the bar- rel head is put in place and the en- tire pit covered with straw or leav- es. As the weather becomes colder, additional layers of soil and of straw or leaves may be added. | besides Don’t Keep Your Dollars Where They Vegetables stored in the barrel 9 pit are easily accessible at any C it S time during the winter. The soil an ee covering will give the protection against freezing weather and hold sufficient moisture to prevent the vegetables from wilting or shriv- eling. Another place where the cabbage and root crops may be stored is a cool cellar with a dirt floor, Mr. Bucher suggests. As a rule, bins should not be more than four feet square and high. Root crops are often placed in old milk cans, or similar containers, with a layer of sand or light soil in the bottom Daylight . . .

By The Lancaster Automobile Club That familiar line—“Do Your Christmas Shopping ! Early”—mightt well be extended to include 1933 li- cense tags, the Lancaster Automo- bile Club suggests and advises car owners to apply for registration as early as possible and thus avoid last minute rush and delays. The new tags may be used beginning December 15, and on and after January 1 display of 1933 plates is mandatory. “Motorists will save themselves considerable inconvenience and an- noyance by avoiding the last min- ute rush for tags,” said S. Edward Gable, president of the Automobile Club, “Many Lancaster countians already have received their new li- cense plates, but the large major- ity are inclined to wait until the last few weeks. In times like these many are forced to do so because of finances, but those who can spare the funds will be helping both themselves and the Bureau of] Motor Vehicles by sending in ap- plications early.” In connection with obtaining new cards and tags, Mr. Gable suggest- ed that car owners put away their 1932 registration cards at the end of the year, and not destroy them. It is much easier to get a duplicate if you have one of the old cards, he explained, for that bears all the data necessary in filling out the form for application for re-issue of cards when lost. “The Automobile . Club has a special bureau at Harrisburg that handles license cases,” Mr. Gable stated, “and this serves hundreds of members of the Club at this time when motor difficulties arise.
