Molly Tells Drying Piwcss For Food Preservation Home drying of fruits and vegetables has become an increasingly popular method of preserving fruits and vege tables in Oregon, notes Molly Saul, Extension Home Econo mist for Umatilla and Morrow Counties. Almost any fruit or vege table can be dried, but some dried foods are more appetiz ing than others. Of the fruits, apples, peaches, apricots, berries and cherries are among the best. Dried sweet corn is a particularly satis factory vegetable. To assure success in your drying efforts, Mrs. Saul offers these guidelines: Select good quality foods. When fruits and vegetables are right for eating, they are right for drying. Prepare for drying with thorough washing, peeling, coring or pitting, and cutting in slices, rings or halves as appropriate. Many fruits, especially ap ples, apricots, peaches, nec tarines and pears, tend to darken during drying and storage. To prevent browning, fruits may be soaked in a sodium bisulfite solution (2Vi teaspoons per quart of water) for fifteen minutes. Sodium bisulfite may be purchased at most local drug stores. Then dry fruits. For peaches and apricot halves, dry with pit side up. To Be Married Weekend guests at the Vic Groshens home were their son Ed Groshens, and his daugh ter, Lisa and Beverly Wolfing ton, Home Economist for Pacific Power and Light, who is Ed's fiancee. They expect to be married in Medford on Sept. 16th. Ed is Manager of the Riverside Branch of First National Bank at Medford. 25th Wedding Celebration Vegetables will maintain better color, flavor, and dry faster if blanched before drying. Steaming is prefer able for blanching, although boiling in water can be done. Blanch until each vegetable piece is heated through and is relaxed in texture and appear ance. Drying is done in the home either by the natural heat of the sun, by artificial heat, or blasts of air, or by a combination of these meth ods. Products dried in controlled heat will dry faster. Thev will be superior to sun dried ones in color, flavor, texture, cooking quality and nutritive value. Also the food is more likely to be free of insects, insect eggs, and dirt. Keys to successful drying are heat, dry air, and circula tion of air. To sundry, spread prepared food on trays. Trays are placed out of direct sunlight on an elevated surface. Arrange trays to allow free air circula tion. An electric fan hastens drying and helps keep insects away. For oven drying, prepared food is set in thin layers on racks or trays covered with cheese cloth. (Racks allow better air circulation.) Heat oven to 150 deg. F. Place lowest rack on shelf three inches from bottom. Addition al racks should be stacked at least 3 inches apart and staggered so warm air will circulate over them. Shift racks occasionally for even drying. Thermometer can be placed on top of food on lowest rack. Temperatures above 150 deg. F. cause scorching. Oven door is left ajar to help control the temperature and to allow moist warm air to escape. Food dehydrators, espec ially built for the job, permit easier control of tempera tures and humidity. For building instructions ask your local county Extension agent for Extension Bulletin 818, "A Home-Built Food Dehy drator." Foods, when properly dried, are pliable and leathery, rather than hard and crisp. They should not snap and crackle when handled. But it should be impossible to press any water out of ends of freshly cut pieces. To care for the dried fruit after removing it from the drier, put it in a box or similar container three to four days to distribute moisture evenly. This process is called "condit ioning." Stir thoroughly once each day during this period. If alter conditioning, the product still seems moist it should be returned to drier. During conditioning, food should be protected from insects. The finished product may be stored in any tight container such as glass jars or tin cans. Keep in cool, dry, well-ventilated place.

He showed them recently for friends at the Assembly of God Church. His pictures are not so much of scenes but of people. His experiences were varied from singing in church es to a fast trip by ambulance to the hospital to have his stomach pumped out because of food poisoning. I did a little favor for him before he took off on his trip. He did without his last meal before boarding the plane to come home and used that money to buy me a miniature full-rigged Viking sailing ship. He completely surprised me with this gift when he showed the pictures at the church. Any group wishing to see his pictures and hear him tell about his trip, could contact him by calling the Don Burwells. The key to success is the ability to get along with some people and ahead of others. Court Wins Again Friday evening the Morrow County Fair and Rodeo Court were guests at the Bob IVtermn's ranch.
