Making Use of Large
Quantity of Peaches
A bushel of peaches! A reader asks (or suggestions as to Various
ways of using this large amount. First of all, the ripest should be set
aside for eating out of the hand or for slicing to serve with cream and to
use for shortcakes and pies. Then firm, ripe fruit should be chosen for
canning, whole or halved. Less perfect fruit may be sliced and canned
also- You may wish to brandy or?
spice some of the whole fruit. The
recipes for these two processes have
been published previously.
Peaches should be dipped in boil
ing water in order to remove -the
skin easily and then dropped into
saJted water in order that there
will be no dsicoloration. If the
peaches are to be halved, this may
be done as soon as they are peeled.
When ready to be packed, wush
the fruit In clear water. The fruit
ishould be packed solidly into hot
'sterilised Jars before it is covered
with a medium sirup to within half
n inch of the top of the Jar.
The rubber Is then adjusted and
the top is put on and half sealed
before placing in a boiling water
bath. The Jars must be on a rack,
of course, and the water must be
deep enough to come over the tops
of the Jars. Do not begin to count
time until the water boils again
after the Jars have been placed In
it.
Peaches may be cooked a few
minutes in sirup before they are
packed. In this case the time for
processing In the boiling water bath
is reduced. Plums are always can
ned without removing the skins,
which should be pricked to pre
vent their bursting. Neither pears
nor plums should be blanched in
hot water but the former should be
pared, halved and cored.
Medium Sirup
1 cup sugar
3 cups water
Mix sugar and water and cook,
stirring until sugar Is dissolved.
Bring to boiling. Fruit juice may be
substituted for part of the water. Al
low about three-quarter cup sirup
for one pint Jar, and about one and
one-quarter cups for one quart Jar.
This amount of sirup yields two and
one-quarter cups sirup;
Canned peaches
Select firm, ripe fruit. Dip In boil
ing water a few seconds, until skins
rub off easily. Cut in halves, to re
move pits. Pack and process ac
cording to either method given be
low. Allow two to two and one
half pounds of peaches to each
quart Jar.
Cold Pack Pack peaches, cut side
down, solidly In hot, sterilised Jars
and pour boiling medium sirup to
within one-half Inch of top. Process
thtrty-flve minutes for firm fruit
and 25 minutes for soft fruit.
Hot Pack- Cook halved peaches In
medium sirup four to eight minutes,
depending upon firmness of fruit.
Process by boiling water bath fif
teen minutes.
Canned Plums
Select firm, ripe fruit. Wash and
prick skins, to prevent bursting.
Pack solidly In hot. sterilized Jars and
pour boiling medium sirup to with
in one-half Inch of top of Jar, Pro
cess by boiling water bath 20 min
utes. Allow one and one-half to two
pounds plums for each quart Jar.
Canned Pears
Select firm, ripe fruit. Wash, pare,
cut In halves and remove cores. Cook
In medium sirup four to eight min
utes. Pack solidly cut side down.
In hot. sterilized Jars and pour sirup
over them to within one-half Inch
of top of Jar. Process by boiling
water bath twenty minutes. Allow
two to two and one-half pounds of
pears for each quart Jar.

the menu-conscious home-maker with a family that trots off to school
every day. This Is especially true If they carry their lunch with them. For
young children, like adults, enjoy variety in Uieir dlet-varlety in color,
flavor and texture. Cookies afford a simple means of introducing all .of
these qualities to make eating sat-
isfylng fun. They are good for the
youngsters since young dessert are
properly limited to the more simple
sweets.

Ginger nut cookies fulfill the
three musts for variety. They are
golden brown in color, crisp in tex
ture, and aplcy in flavor. They also
fulfill a must for the cook because
they are simple to make and quite
Inexpensive. Invite the children to
help with the baking. Rolling the
dough into tiny balls and dipping
them into granulated sugar will
furnlah diversion for active little
hands, and make the baked cook
ies taste extra good.

Home Demonstration Work
Is Useful and Practical
The Smith-Lever Act passed by congress in 1914 provides lor the es
tablishment of agricultural extension work "in order to aid in diffusing
among the people of the United States useful and practical Information
on subjects related to agriculture and home economics and to encourage
the application" of the information given. Extension work In agriculture
and home economics and to en
courage the application" of the in
formation given,
Extension work in agriculture and
l:ome economics is a cooperative
system or education in which the
United States department of Agri
culture cooperates with the state
agricultural colleges, county ap
propriating bodies, and local groups
of rural people in employing coun
ty and state extension agents to
carry on extension work with rural
men, women, boys and girls on their
farms, in their homes and in their
communities,
In Oregon there are 108 extension
workers, 77 county workers and 31
working out from Oregon State col
lege. Every county in the state has
the services of a county agricul
tural agent. Twelve counties have
assistant county agricultural agents,
14 counties have home demonstra
tion agents and 14 counties have 15
4-H club agents. The work of the
county extension agents is rein
forced by a group of 24 agricultural
in California, Is visiting his grand
parents, Rev. and Mrs. U. S. Crow-
der. Corporal Miller has been trans
ferred to Fort Lewis in Washington.
The pre-school age youncster
likes his sandwiches made from en
riched bread which has been cut
paper thin and in small sections.
His chubby, little hands cannot
grasp the larger ones adults are
accustomed to. Sandwich fillings for
this age group are best kept simple
and nutritious. Finely chopped ap
ple, parsley or grated carrot are
excellent.

No fruit is better for marmalade or jam than peaches, unless it Is
plums; In preparing products of this sort, do not attempt to make too
much at one time. It is difficult to persuade the Jams to thicken before a
carmelized flavor results when you work with laarge quantities. In any
case a heavy aluminum or stainless steel kettle should be chosen for the
purpose. Enamel kettles may be
used if you are very careful about
stirring the mixture to prevent
burning.
The addition or a little lemon
juice and a cracked peach stone
gives a tang to peach Jam which is
desirable. Plums generally need no
extras. The sweet blue plums, how
ever, are the better for the addition
of a little finely cut orange rind.
Peach jam does not thteken so
much as does plum Jam, for which
the Jelly test may be used.
Jam may be packed in either
Jelly glasses or fruit jars.
Plum Jam
3 pounds plums (1 quarters
pitted fruit)
8 cups sugar
Select firm, ripe fruit. Wash, cut
in halves and remove pits. If fruit
Is not Juicy, add cup water and
add sugar. Bring to boiling over low
heat, stirring constantly until sugar
Is dissolved. Cook over high heat,
stirring as needed to prevent burn
ing, until sirup gives Jelly tost, about
fifteen to twenty minutes. Skim If
necessary. Pour into hot sterilized
Jars and seal. Yield: About three
pints.
Note: If blue plums are used add.

and home economics specialist.
The home economics phase has
specialists in the fields of foods and
nutrition, family relationships,
clothing and textiles, home furnish
ing and home management, recrea
tion, and a part-time specialist In
landscape architecture.
In the home demonstration agent
counties the technical extension
staff in home economics was sup
plemented In 1940 by the activity
of more than 3828 volunteer lead
ers, some men but mostly women,
whose interest In Improved living
is so great that they donate a por
tlon of their time each year to
spreading information through
group meetings as well as individual
contacts.
Cooperative extension work is ed
ucational and plays no part In the
regulatory, police, or legislative ac
tlvltles of agriculture and rural life
except to carry essential Informa
tion and to encourage people to
work out their programs with the
help of competent local leadership
Through the extension system the
educational research work of the
state colleges of agriculture and the
United States department of agri
culture are taken to the rural peo
ple, and adapted to their needs
by the extension agents resident in
the county, and by the rural people
themselves. The extension service is
charged with the responsibility of
getting local committees of farm
people to study the problems of
rural life and the best use of land.
These findings are used in the de
velopment, or land-use policies
ainred at a nation-wide Improve
ment in agriculture and rural lite.
The extension system assists In car
rying national public program af
fecting agriculture to local people,
Interpreting these programs to them
and encouraging rural people to
necessary action.
In counties with home demon
stration agents the agent conducts
a program based on the desires and
needs of the people who themselves
have planned the program. This
work may be carried through or
ganized extension groups or by
other groups already organized.
Five home economics extension
organizations wnose interests are
different, are conducted within the
county. Extension units are groups
of women who meet monthly or
twice monthly and study different
projects in homemaking. Study
clubs are groups of women or
men and women whose primary In
terest Is in parent education and
family relationships subjects. Rec
reation units are composed of se
lected leaders by organizations and
communities and who receive
training at Institutes and monthly
meetings In social recreation and
dramatics. These leaders In turn
direct these activities for other or
ganizations. Older youth groups are
composed of young men and women
who meet monthly and their in
terest Is further training for life's
work as well as social. 4-H clubs
are groups of boys and girls who
learn not only skills, but gain In
tangible benefits which will make
them Jlner citizens.
The home economies extension
service cooperates with other or
ganizations In many ways, such as
helping in program planning, train
ing leaders, giving demonstrations
or conducting discussions and pre
paring bulletins and mimeographed
subject matter. Parent teachers' as
sociations, granges, farmers' unions,
women's clubs, community clubs,
garden clubs, church and school
groups all may benefit from this
service.
Por luncheon or afternoon coffee
or Just plain good eating serve green
apple sauce over toasted enriched
bread and sprinkle with powdered
sugar. Or serve It with cinnamon
toast for breakfast.
