Social Lites - - CALL 6-9228 or 6-9284 by Jo By JO PETTYJOHN WHAT IS more fun than picking peaches with the whole fam ily, grandma and grandpa in cluded, and eating until you are stuffed? All bundle out of the car, some laden with buckets, and head for what is the "best" tree only to discover just a little farther on there is a tree with bigger and better peaches! And so it goes for an afternoon, everyone going for the bests ones in all directions. After a week of fresh peaches at every meal, they are still the "most"! 0 0 0 IT IS canning time, the apricots are nearly gone in the area but still time for peaches and apples. Have you tried canning apricots with pineapple? They add a delicious taste. Peaches are now available and will con tinue for the next month and into September. I usually wait for later peaches as our family likes the canned flavor of these peaches. Rachel Dick told me about a quick way of adding the sugar in cold pack canning of fruits. She1 and Frances Smith (former Heppnerite) tried it for several years and they like it as well as the syrup method. They add the sugar and water directly to each quart of fruit, using the same1 proportion in mixing the heavy, medium or light syrup, to suit your fam ilies' taste. 0 0 0 FOUR TABLES of duplicate bridge were in play Tuesday night at the Elks lodge with Jim and Bobbe Driscoll winning high.
