The shelf life of ripe fruit can be extended by controling the
presence of ethylene gas that causes fresh produce to spoil. Too
bad they can't master the human aging factor. However spraying
on an anti-aging substance might create too many well-preserved
old fruit cakes.
Yet they have determined that older people's brains do
manufacture new brain cells, which blows my good excuse for
forgetting things. But like the loss of youthful body flexibility you
can also lose brain power, it seems. In other words it's a downhill
process when it comes to using it or losing it.
Hence there are sticky-note reminders in my home, even in the
bathroom, as well as in my purse and the car. If one is lost, I'm in
big trouble. Yet my biggest problem comes from stacks of
readable materials. Ajid when it comes to condensing these piles
at a later date, I can't seem to remember why some articles were
saved in the first place.
But the subject of old things leads me to advocating that everyone
should enter things at our fair. There is no category for live old
bodies in the antique comer. But how about your grandmother's
old flatiron, an antique vase or collectible old tobacco tins? Ch-
show off that antique hand-me-down quilt made ages ago.
The craft department should overflow with all those crafty things
made by many talented people in this county—from wooden
goodies to birdhouses and stuffed rabbits and dolls or delicate
hand-painted china. And then there are those masterpieces on
canvas that should be displayed on the bam board display area. Ch-
seamstresses can show off fine handiwork when it comes to quilts,
doilies, clothing and other works of art.
if your talent runs to growing things one can usually find some
blossoms that despite heat, f lower at the perfect time. And don't
forget those carefully-tended houseplants.But if your posies tend
to wilt on the way to the show maybe you can enter them as dried
horticulture.
There doesn't seem to be any category for a six-foot zucchini in
the fruit and vegetables department. But you can bring those un
fried green tomatoes And it's a pretty sight to see rows of
preserved fruits, vegies and all types, of preserves and jellies on
the canning cupboard shelves.
How about turning on the air conditioner and whipping up a plate
of cookies or a loaf of bread? You could also bake an Oregon
Potato cake for the wheat league cake baking contest.
I don't
know if it's cricket, but I've used instant potatoes for this since I
seem to be allergic to potato peeling.
Just remember it's everyone's fair and a great way to showcase
the efforts of many talented county residents for everyone's
enjoyment. The hardworking fair board, fair committee and many
dedicated superintendents put in many hours towards making this
a great yearly event. And this year they have spiced up the affair
with a variety of musical entertainment, a clasic auto show, a
hands-on science program for children and don't forget the pet
look-alike contest.
The 4-Hers and FFA members who have had
the experience of taming and grooming their animals might fully
appreciate how fast porkers can run when the Alaskan Racing Pigs
take to the track.

Six months has gone by

Give me four months. I’ll be fine
