BEDFORD HAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, DREG ON, FRIDAY, JULY 15. 1932. PAGE FIVE Use or Save All Food Home Garden Provides (By the Bureau of Home Economic, stir occasionally while drying. Prop- Her Eyes On Olympics V. 8. Department qf Apiculture.) The preserving sesaon la on. And the Bureau of Rome Economics. U. S. Department of Agriculture, advlsss families that have garden to let nothing go to waste. Use the fresh vegetables and fruits as they come along, of course, and don't can them Just for canning's sake. There Is little virtue In hoarding. But put up any perishable things not requir ed for present needs, the bureau urges. Then If there is more on hand than one family needs when winter comes, they may well be shared with homes that are leas fortunate. A preserving program should, of course, be planned with reference to Its cost. Nowadays, mors foods are canned than are preserved In any other way, but housewives who do not have the cans or jars and a steam pressure cooker, can fall back upon the oldest, simplest and cheap est method of food preservation, which, the bureau points out, Is drying. Com, mature beans, peas, celery and okra, among She vege tables, are easily and satisfactorily dried. 'as are also apples, pears, apri cots, cherries, prunes and some other fruits. The easiest way to dry vege tables and fruits Is to spread them out In the sun, on a shelf, table, or roof, cover them lightly to keep out Insects and dust, and let the sun do the rest. This method works In sun ny climates, but when It rains the products must be brought Indoors or sheltered. An outdoor dryer, very ' much like a hotbed, which Is shel tered from rain, can be made. Or ventilated shelves over a cookstove or small laundry stove will make an Indoor dryer. "Puttlna down In brine" used to be more common than It Is nowa- days, but It Is a cheap and useful way of holding for winter use some of the vegetables which are not so successfully canned with the ordin ary home equipment. String beans, onions, cauliflower, green peppers, cucumbers, green tomatoes, cabbage all these can be orlned and used for pickle. The beans and onions can also be cooked (after soaking out the salt) and served In place of fresh vegetables; the green peppers are useful for stuffing; the cabbage makes sauerkraut; the green toma. toes can be used for pie. In brining vegetables a salt solu tion may be used, but some vege tables contain enough water to make their own brine when sslt Is added; and some contain enough sugar cause fprmentstlon, making an acid brine cucumber pickle and sauer kraut, for example. "Pickled corn," however, may result from dry salting without fermentation. The fresh corn Is cooked In boiling water for 10 minutes, to set the milk. Then It Is cut off the cob and packed lay ers with one-fourth Its weight of fine salt There is sJmost nothing nowsdays that can not be canned successfully with the best commercial equipment. , But for home canning It Is Im portant to consider vegetables In two classes tomatoes (which are really a fruit) and all others. Tomates and all fruits, because of their acid, can be put up by the open kettle method, or they can be sterilized In a boiling water-bath, In a steamer, or In an oven equipped with a heat-regulating device or a good thermometer. For non-acid vegetables, however, the Bureau of Home. Economics reoem mehds ' processing (1. e., sterilizing) In a steam pressure cooker only. The housewife, without a pressure can ner, will do well, the bureau says, to limit her canning to tomatoes and fruits apples, apricots, berries, cher ries, currants, goseberrles, peaches, pears or plums. To prevent spoiling, If canned, and possible food poison ing. If eaten, the non-acid vegetables such as corn, beans, peas or greens, must be processed at teperatures around 240 and 350 degrees Fahren heit, which are higher than can be obtained In the open kettle or water- bath. erly dried peas will be uniformly dry throughout, showing no moisture nesr the center when split open. Wax beans, lima beans or mature string beans for drying should be gathered when full grown but before the pods have begun to dry. Shell, blanch five minutes In boiling water with thorough agitation, dry and spread on trays to a depth of not 'more than 1 Inch. Stir rather fre quently In the first hours of drying. Considerable variation In the temper atures employed In drying Is permis sible, but. do not heat the material above 150 degrees F. at the outset. Brining string Beans. Select white or green strlngless beans snd remove the tip from each end. Wash the beans well and place them In a 10 per cent or 40-degree brine. Add salt each day until the reading does not change. When the brine Is constant, store the beans in glass Jars or earthenware containers, sealing closely with paraffin. After the Jars are sealed do not move them or the liquid will loosen the seal. The be&na can be freshened when needed for pickles or can be used for the tsble. The cold water method for freshening consists In placing the beans In cold water three times their volume, bringing to simmering point and keeping fhere for a few minutes; the salt Is sufficiently extracted ana the beans are ready for use. Canning Tomatoes. Select firm, ripe tomatoes or me dium size and uniform shspe. Do not use tomstoes which are overripe which have spotted or decayed places. Put into trays or shallow layers In wire baskets and dip In boil ing water for about a minute, ac cording to ripeness. Remove and plunge quickly into cold water for an Instant. Drain at once and core and peel promptly. Pack Into Jars or cans as closely as possible. For home use, fill with a thick tomato sauce or with the Juice of other to matoes. If the tomatoes are to be sold under federal regulations add only the Juice which drains from them during peeling and trimming. Season with 1 teaspoonful of sslt per quart. Process quart and pint glass Jars for 45 minutes In boiling water and No. 3 and No. 3 sanitary or R enameled tin cans for 35 minutes. Canning Tomato Juice. Select firm, ripe tomatoes; wash well and drain; cut Into sections; add a small quantity of water to start cooking snd simmer until soft ened. Stir- occaslonsUy to prevent burning. Put through a sieve fine enough to remove seeds. Bring to boiling, put Immediately In contain ers; sdd 1 teaspoonful salt to each quart of Juice, process quart and pint Jars five mlnutea In boiling water.

Garden peas Intended for drying should be gathered when in ideal condition for Immediate table use; that la, when the seeds have attained full size and before the pods nave begun to turn yellow and dry up, Shell them by placing the pods .n boiling water for three minutes, then spread on a wire screen having a mesh large enough to permit the shelled peas to pass through, with box or basket beneath It. Rub the pods vigorously over 'the screen with the hands. This will burst and empty practically all the pods much more quickly than they could be ahelled by hand. Then dip the shell. ed peas for only one to two minutes In boiling water (to which table salt has been added, 3 tablespoonfuls to the gsllon), drain, spread to a depth of to 1 Inch on the trays, and dry at 155 to 130 degrees F. as Initial temperature, rising to 140 degrees to ward the completion of the drying, I: E PORTLAND, Ore., July 15.
