RATIONS FOR STORING
SOME DO NOT KEEP
Among the list of emergency rations which housewives have been advised to store, it should be noted that some do not keep well indefinitely. Cheese, chocolate and wholemeal supplies should be replaced every three months or so. | Dried milks and tinned butter will keep indefinitely if kept unopened in tneir tins.
Though potatoes are a bulky food thsy are so valuable for health that a good supply of them should be always kept for emergency, especially as they contain food factors which are missing from the other items of such, a ration. Wherever possible fresh fruit and vegetables should be freely used. The foods which should be made up into a small packet to take in a shelter ara tinned or well-wrapped cheese, wholemeal biscuits, well wrapped, and marching chocolate, rhese are both nourishing and sustaining.
