15th Annual Reservation A -v.' CJ r J .t. Jm Levi Blackwolfe. Home Sweet Home Benimltlle Hundley Water shortages arc a possibility in some areas of Oregon this sum mer. Keep the kitchen in mind as you conserve. Water conservation shouldn't be at the expense of food safety, cautions Carolyn Raab, OSU Extension foods and nutrition spe cialist. Don't skip washing your hands before preparing food. Lather them with soap and scrub them for 20 seconds, ideally under running water. If it's necessary to use a bucket or pan of water, use clean water and discard after use. Or, you might re use the water to rinse dishes before you wash them or put them in the dishwasher. To conserve water during food preparation, wash raw fruits and veg etables in a bowl or pan of water rather than under running water. You can scrub hard-surface produce, such as carrots, with a vegetable brush for maximum cleaning. The water can be reused to rinse dirty dishes before washing them. Allow enough time to defrost fro zen foods in the refrigerator rather than under running water. Remove ice cube trays a few minutes before you need them, to loosen them at room temperature instead of under the faucet. Keep a covered container of drinking water in the refrigerator instead of running the faucet for cool In Loving Memory Passed Away May 21 1991 Harold Michael Greene While time fades away Your memory is here to stay. Elia "Hot Dog" Greene-Red House, Michael Greene Family Cclia Greene, Ramona Baez Family, Sara Gonzaloz Family, Timothy Greene, Delcie Greene, Wendell Greene Teams take-off for 56-mile course water. Shake the container before serving to incorporate air in water and eliminate "flat" taste. Serve drinking water only if people re quest it. Wash dishes in a pan of hot, soapy water and rinse in a second pan of hot water rather than under running water. When waiting for tap water to warm, collect cold water for fu ture use. Use a container with a spigot for short-term storage. If you use a dishwasher, scrape dishes but don't rinse before load ing in your washer, especially when you'll run the washer within a few hours. If rinsing is necessary, catch water in the sink and rinse with it rather than under the running fau cet. Run only full dishwasher loads. A relatively small volume of wa ter completes a cycle in dishwashers. Most dishwashers fill with 2 or 3 gallons of water during each cycle. Depending on the cycle you select for washing or rinsing, the dish washer fills and drains 4 or 5 times using from 12 to 16 gallons of water during the complete cycle time. This amount of water is continually re circulated through the spray-wash arms and filter system of the appli ance to clean the dishes. Many people find that one run ning does the day's dishes. This means dirty dishes, glasses, snack iVVi .'Y, A.? 'to; r V plates, pots and pans, and prepara tion utensils can be put into the dish washer until there are enough accu mulated for a full load. This reduces the use of water, since less is used to run the dishwasher once a day than would be needed when clutter is washed by hand frequently through out the day, usually under con stantly running water. Many people use more than 15 gallons of water in hand washing dishes for just one meal! It takes just as much water to run the washer empty as full. -Good Rural Fire Prevention checklist offered by Fire & Safety Dept. Self-reliance is the rule for fire safety for many people. If you live in an area where the local fire de partment is more than a few min utes away because of travel time or distance, or if you are outside the limits of the nearest town, be sure you know how to be self-reliant in a fire emergency. The United States Fire Adminis tration (USFA) encourages you to use this fire safety checklist to help you protect yourself, your home and its surroundings from fire.

Look for loading in structions in the use and care manual for your particular model. Improper loading and overloading can cause poor cleaning, and dishes may have to be rcwashed which uses more human energy as well as electrical energy and water. If you own a waste food disposer, become conscious of the times you run it. Cold water is used in operat ing a disposer so that fat particles solidify and are chopped and flushed -Install multiplane windows, tem pered safety glass or fireproof shut ters to protect large windows from radiant heat. -Use fire-resistant draperies for added window protection. -Keep tools for fire protection nearby: 100-foot garden hose, shovel, rake, ladder and buckets. -Make sure water sources, such as hydrants and ponds, are accessible to the fire department. Let your landscape defend your property -Trim grass on a regular basis up to 100 feet surrounding your home. -Create defensible space by thin ning trees and brush within 30 feet around your home. -Beyond 30 feet, remove dead wood, debris and low tree branches. -Landscape your property with fire resistant plants and vegetation to prevent fire from spreading quickly. -Stack firewood at least 30 feet away from your home and other structures. -Store flammable materials, liq uids and solvents in metal contain ers outside the home, at least 30 feet away from structures and wooden fences.

It is estimated that under normal conditions, the average person uses 1.5 gallons of water per day to operate a disposer. Remember that waste food dis posers are made to operate with the water running. Operating the ma chine without running water will ruin it. If you arc serious about not using water, then dispose of food wastes by other means. Careful plan ning can help eliminate some of the waste from the start. One way to simplify cleanup is to peel vegetables, eggs, or other food onto newspaper, wrap the paper around the food waste, and then dis pose of the; package in the garbage container. This saves you from scrap ing peelings out of the sink or off the counter after the preparation job is done. It will save water because you don't have to operate the dis poser. This might be a good time to consider starting a compost pile if you have available outdoor space.
