"But you must be a careful shopMT to avoid disappoint ment, " cautions Alice Mills Morrow, OSU Extension spec ialist. This means reading the descriptions carefully and checking to see if you could buy the same or similar item locally at a competitive price. Be sure to take into considera tion the cost incurred in shipping or mailing ... it must be added to your cost to get the true comparison figure. With some merchandise, such as clothing, it may be difficult to make decisions without seeing the merchan dise. Before ordering, it's imprutant to know if goods can be exchanged or returned for a refund. The new publication, "Ord ering Merchandise by Mail," now available from the Mor row County Office of OSU Extension Service, has more information about mail order buying. "FOOD FOR LATFK" SERIFS If you're planning to can food at home this summer, now is the time to gather the necessary equipment, points out Carolyn Kaab, Oregon State University Ext. foods specialist. The right equip ment is essential for safe, high quality products. Many pieces of canning equipment are a one-time investment, she adds. Pres sure canners and water bath canners fall into this category. Watch for specials on these two items in the coming months. A pressure canner is needed to process low acid foods (meat, fish, poultry and vege tables). Two basic types are available. One has a dial-type gauge to regulate the pres sure The other has a weighted Hevice. Both work satisfactor ily when directions ate care fully followed, Dial gauges must be tested for accuracy before each canning season. The county office of the OSU Extension Service can tell you where to take them for testing. A boiling water bath canner is needed for canning fruits, pickles and jams. Be sure to take a quart jnr along when making a purchase. The canner should be deep enough to allow two or three inches of water to boil over the top of the jars, A pressure canner (without gauge) can double as a water bath canner if it's deep enough. Ms. Haab points out. Take a jar inventory and decide whether or not you need to purchase new Jars this spring. Inspect canning jars on hand for nicks and cracks, especially around the top edge. A nick could prevent a good seal. Also remember that very old canning jars become brittle with age and, can break under pressure and heat. If you need to purchase more Jars, watch for specials or look for standard canning jars at garage sales. Ms. Kaab recommends. sizes the importance of having reliable canning instructions before you begin. Free public ations are available at the Morrow County offices of the Extension Service in Heppner and Irrignn. Planning ahead can save time and money when the produce is ready.
