Canning Sugar Plan For 1948 Canning Season Outlined
Appanoose county War Price and Rationing board chair J R Hamm announced that sugar for home canning of the 1948 fruit crop will be distributed on a basis similar to last season. Households will not surrender blue ration stamps, and plans may be refined later. In 1942 families received one pound per four quarts of fruit with an extra pound per family member for jams and preserves. OPA aims to maximize home canning given limited sugar and processed foods.
