Delicious Oregon fruits and berries can be enjoyed in a variety of ways says Pennie Albrandt, Warm Springs Exten sion Agent; Ripe fruit can be eaten fresh in pies, fresh in their own juice, canned in their own juice, as syrup frozen, sun dried, or as jam, jelly, conserves or pre serves. Jelly is made from fruit juice. It is clear and holds its shape when turned out of the jar. Jam is made from crushed or chopped fruit and is less firm than jelly. ' Preserves are whole or large pieces of fruit suspended in a thickened syrup. Conserves are jams made from a mixture of fruits. They usually contain citrus fruits, nuts and raisin. Pennie points out that pro per amounts of fruit, pectin, acid and sugar are needed to make a jellied fruit product. Pectin is needed for thickening and gel formation, and is neces sary for flavor and for gel formation, and sugar helps in gel formation, acts as a pre serving agent, and adds to the flavor. More information and in structions for using fresh huckle; berries and fruits is available at the Extension Office or call 553-1161 ext. 238-239.

Had the tests returned posi tive, the entire south end of the reservation would have had to be quarantined.

She also hopes to get the kids to do things on their own, help them gain confidence and have fun while they learn things they want to learn. In the upcoming months, Pennie plans to sponsor more programs in clothing and tex tiles. Pennie has made no home visits in the two weeks she’s been here, but now that all the paperwork and backlog of office work is out of the way, she’s anxious to get started working with people on a one-to-one ' basis.
