Extension Service The season for food preser vation is coming quickly with home gardens already begin ning to produce. Proper equipment is neces sary for safe home canning of the harvest. Pressure canners with a dial gauge should be tested at least once yearly, or more if heavily used, or if it is suspected that it is not operat ing accurately. It is a good idea to have the gauge tested before canning season begins. Some hardware or depart ment stores provide this ser vice for a small fee. A tester is also available from the Wasco and Sherman county exten sion offices. Only the gauge needs to be taken in for testing. Canners with a weighted gauge do not require testing. If the weighted gauge is not functioning properly it should be replaced with a new one. For further information on canning or other food preser vation, contact the Morrow Co. extension office. aayyi. .i-uii . ii. in J i..,,iu. , i,, u.i, i,i iu, ji .... . ... j .L.j.. a ASym TOTAL HARDWARE offTi NOW IN PROGRESS LARGE SUPPLY OF FISHING AND CAMPING GEAR FOR 4th OF JULY WEEKEND We will be open Monday, July 5th oast to oast r Stored grain seminar slated in Pendleton What's Your Opinion?

Peer Educators More than 3.5 million young people throughout the nation have learned how they can help make the next generation a healthier one, thanks to the efforts of a grpup of students who take the time to be involved. These students are peer educators who work with chapters of the Future Homemakers of America, a national vocational student organization of home eco nomics students, both boys and girls. Peer educators learn about nutrition, health and the problems of teenage pregnancy, and attend hours of workshops on communi cation techniques, so that they can share important facts with other young peo ple in their communities. Being a peer educator doesn't mean you have to make all the presentations which can range from ques tion and answer sessions to skits and puppet shows by yourself. Helping out are lo cal resource people anyone with the information that's needed such as a March of Dimes representative, a school nurse, dietitian or health teacher.
