Now is the time to test
pressure canner gauges
By BIRDINETVLLIS
Morrow Co. 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.

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.
Question: "In your opinion,
should the insanity plea be
changed or abolished in our
criminal justice system?"
"Yes, I think that a valid
case can be made that an
attempt at murder does re
quire that the participant
would have to be insane.
Therefore I don't see how you
can have an insanity plea."
