When corn syrup is used re duce liquids in recipe by one-fourth. 2. In muffins, plain cakes and drop cookies, corn syrup may be substituted measure for measure for sugar and the liquid in the recipe reduced by one-third. 3. You use I’fj cups of maple su gar for each cup of cane or beet sugar. 4. Honey can replace half of the sugar in jellies, jams and preserves. 5. Corn syrup can be used in bev erages, puddings, custards and sauc es but you must use twice as much to get an equally sweet product as when using sugar. Don’t lean too heavily on these sources of sugar, for manufacturers of these products are rationed too. The whole idea is to sweeten but go sparingly. A sugar shortage need be no catastrophe. We did it before and we can do it again. In a short time we’ll be used to it and be mak ing a contribution to our country as well as improving our own health. 70 MILLION AMERICANS een —and they're turning to buses for efficient wartime travel “In-Between” the great metropolitan areas—in small towns, in fast-growing new industrial centers, at cross-roads communities and on farms—more than half of the people in this nation are living, working, aiding the war effort. And, as more cars are retired, they’re coming to depend more and more upon buses for efficient essential travel. Greyhound, for instance, offers the only service to great numbers of these communities—and unduplicated service to still greater numbers!
