Es Nevada City Nugget 305 Broad Street. Phone 36. A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. e Editor anu l-H. M. LEETE -Published Semi-Weekly, Monday and itiursday at Nevada City, California, and entered as Ma matter of the second class in the postoffice a* Nevada City under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. . SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year (In. Advance) -...-.------:-4------+-+--$3.00 Ot MONON 36 ee eso ances 30 cents —~J FOR MER!TORIOUS SERVICE President Franck Havenner of the State Railreed Commission. in transmitting a report to the levislature detailins the results of the commission's inquiry into the railroad manpower problem, paid hich tribute to California's rail lines for rendering outstanding service to the nation in critical emer. gency which followed the attack on Pearl: Harbor. Said President Havenner: “I should like to take this ovportunity of calling.attention ‘to the remarkable and outstanding transportation job, unequaled in the country’s railroad history, that California railroads, management and employes. are doing in helping to win the war.” That tribute is well-deserved. When the full story can be told after the war, it will be disclosed that railroads, which) played such a big part in opening up the Old West, played an even greater and more spectacular role in saving the New West from attack and possible invasion when troops and guns and equipment wee desperately needed to strenghten our forces in the Pacific. But more than an award for meritorious service, as gratifying as that may be, Caiifornia railroads need and are entitled to prompt aid in solving their manpower problem and in getting replacement materials to keep their equipment rolling at full speed during the months ahead when military _ freight shipments will be vastly increasd. The State Railroad Commission report emphasized that “greatly increased burdens will be placed on these railroad systems in the near future” and urged that rail transportation in California be placed on a priority basis, as to both manpower and materials, equal to that of other essential war industries. The commission, while stating that its study was yet incomplete, also reported that it found numerous cases where the so-called Full Crew Law caused train delays, due to lack of brakemen, and many other “‘borderline’’ cases. Under the circumstances, there can be no possible excuse for further delay on the part of the legislature in heeding the railroads’ appeal for suspension of this obsolete make-work law for the duration. That is a practical way of recognizing the magnificent job which the roads have done ~— and of insuring their ability to continue to do it the months ahead. FOOD PROSPECTS BRIGHTEN When the people of this country finally get stirred up, as has been proved in innumerable instances, they are equal to almost any emergency. We have new proof. of that just now in the improvement in the nation’s food prospects. For de‘spite somewhat conflicting reports from government depart‘ments, it is generally conceded that the food outlook has brightened considerably—and it is now entirely probable that our 1943 harvest will equal the record yield of last year. ' The main reason for improvement in the situation is that we have a good, healthy food shortage scare which prodded everybody into action—from Main Street to Pennsylvania Avenue. Fully aroused, the average American has taken the ‘business of gardening seriously and Victory Gardens are be‘hg planted on-such an unprecedented scale that the yield of vegetables, berries and fruits from backyards, vacant lots, the parks and golf courses promises to far surpass.all expectations. Washington officials who had been slow to recognize the sériousness of the farm labor shortake seem to have become fully aroused, too, with the result that arrangements are said to have been completed to bring approximately 60,000 Mexican farm hands into California and other big farm states in the west, and some 6,000 Bahamans into the agricultural ereas on the Atlantic seaboard. While there are still many kinks to be; ironed out in the food for victory program, the period of confusion and drifting seems to be definitely at an end—and the ‘threat of bare shelves in the pantry and the corner store _ is well on its way to being averted. _ We got scared, it seems, and then we got.busy. As a consequence we won't go hungry, even though we may work up a terrific appetite turning over the good earth and harvesting its produce. How long does it take a woman to prepare supper for the family? If she’s a war worker who takes up her home job after an 8-hour shift on a production line or in an office, it probably takes far less time than it did in pre-war days. For one of the first things the. homemaker-war worker has “@iscovered is that her Jeisurely pre!-war methods were not only unnecessary but often resulted in Jess nutritious meals than those she now prepares using short cuts and streamlined methods. With plenty of time on her hands he may have cooked foods more slowly than she does today; and : quicker cooking holds in more of the vitamin content. She may have cookthough many are just as tasty raw and actually provide more vitamins and minerals than when cooked. One trick many war workers are using is to cook up on Sunday enough food to last well into the middle of the week. A pot roast, for instance, or 4 pot of baked beans, or any of those other dishes which are just as good cold as hot and which also provide the makings for lunch box sandwiches either for the war worker or for the school children. They’ve learned, too, that many foods can be cooked, either partially or wholly, during a mid-week evening, and quickly completed or _ reheated for next night’s supper. Stews are a good example. When they cook potatoes,” they eook twice as much as the family will eat at one méal. The remainder is then ready to make into potato cakes or puffs, or nourishing potato soup. Other vegetables, carrots, peas, beans and so on, cooked in extra quantities, can be used in a one dish vegetable scallop which takes very ed her vegetables’too long, well past the point of “just tender” which _gutritionists advise. And undoubtedly e did.cook.most of her vegetables, ‘a f * little time to prepare when the vegetables are.pre-cooked. Slicing or dicing sucH vegetables as. carrots, turnips and onions, or IN SPITE OF THE STORM a ee considerably. Home Economics, U. S. Department stove way to cook many vegetables, and it holds the food Value too since the vegetables are cooked in their own juices. Favorites for panning are cabbage, shredded in narrow strips; kale, stripped from the midribs; spinach; summer squash, cut in small pieces; okra with the pods sliced crosswise. é : The system approved by Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economies is as follows: for each quart of prepared vegetables allow two tablespoons of fat. (Melt the fat in a heavy, flat pan; add vegetables and cover to hold in the steam. Cook slowly until tender but not mushy, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper before serving. Milk can be added if desired, first. sifting flour lightly over the cooked vegetables to thicken the milk. One of the biggest time and food value savers is serving vegetables raw. Cabbage, cut up for slaw, is one of the most usual ways. Raw carrots, eaten with salt, like celery, are another favorite, and grated carrots make delicious salads or sandwich fillings. Not so well known are raw young turnips, cut in thin sticks and eaten with salt. Raw cauliflower separated into its little bunches, can also be eaten this way. One way to conserve the vitamin C, the experts say, is to serve vegetables immediately after they are picked. Vitamin C disappears into thin air when vegetables stand. Diced raw rutabaga, chopped raw green peppers and cold cooked potatoes make a quick and tasty salad, full of good vitamins and minerals. Raw chopped spinach and diced tomatoes make another. Shredded cabbage, chopped onion and chopped peanuts’ provide an interesting dish. Egg dishes, such as omelets and baked eggs, are quick to prepare and can often take the place of meat in the menu. ~ TIRES—Civilian cars are wearing down tires eight times faster than they can be replaced. If the present rate of ‘travel continues without more stringent rationing of gas a majority of the 27,000,000 cars in use in the United States will be out of service by spring 1944. The only alternative is—share the ride, keep your tres inflated and aligned, walk more frequently, and stay at homes. The production of victory tires (reclaimed rubber) has been stopped. The performance of this _ tire was not satisfactory. Until synthetic tires are released for civilian use few new tires will be available. Ac-: cording to the ‘Victory Bulletin’ passenger cars and commercial vehicles using tires smaller than 7.50 x 20 can get their casings recaped with reclaimed rubber camelback without applying to their local rationing board #for certificates. New casings of lower qualities—Grade II can be secured by applying for certificates at your ration board Py the holders of Book_A and B. Phose with mileage ration of 550 and 1000 miles monthly can secure Grade 1 tires upon application. FOOD—tThe rationing of foods and their point value will continue to fluctuate. Transpotation, supply, and spoilage will alter the amount to be found on the market. Fresh cabbage, carrots, peas, snap beans, spinach and tomatoes will have a uniform mark-up. . grating beets, shortens cooking time, = . .
