PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1932. Grapes Now Plentiful For Juice, Jam, Jelly (By the Bureau of Home Economic, V. S. Department of Agriculture) Grapes tor grape Juice, Jama, and Jelllea are coming along at their beat Juat now. They are plentiful and cheap in local market. It la the houaewlfe'a opportunity to provide at amall expense a atore of grape Juice, grape Jelly, grape butter, and grape marmalade for winter, aa well as to serve her family now with fresh grapes for breakfast or dinner, and grape pie or grape pudding at either the midday or the evening meal. The best known of the native American grapes Is the Concord, which provides most of the commer cially bottled grape Juice. The Pacific slope grows European varletlea Muscat for raisins, Thompson seed less, Malaga, Tokay, Alicante, and other sweet grapea for the table. . O rapes, grape Juice, Jama or grape Jellies add much to the appearance and tempting quality of a meal, but they are not merely decorative. Nu , trltlonlsta of the Bureau of Home Economics have found that Concord grape aklns are a good source of food Iron, and the aklns, though not usual ly eaten raw, go Into the making of grape Juice, Jellies and marmalades. Thus grapes may do their bit toward balancing a meal that might other wise be too heavy with atarch, fat and protein. Concord grapea are great favorites tot any of the purposes the native grapes may serve. Often the Juice Is bottled and stored for use either aa a drink or for making Into Jelly later on. Delaying the Jelly making Is one way to overcome the "aplkes," or orystals of tartarlo acid, that form In grape Juice or grape Jelly. These crys tals are harmless, but they are gritty and spoil the smoothness of the Jelly. When grope Jelly Is to be made up at once, say the Jelly experts of the buresu, there will be fewer "spikes" If the Juice Is allowed to stand over night. Next day dip It carefully away from the orystala whloh will have formed on bottom and sides of the bowl, and strain It through a fine cloth. In the economical household, the pomace of -skins and pulp that re main after the Juice Is extracted usually go Into grape butter. One half as much sugar-as pomace, a lit tle salt, and spice to taste are added, the mixture ia cooked down until thick, and packed boiling hot In eter nized Jars. The bureau offers recipe for a spiced Jelly which goes particularly well with meat; also recipes for a grape conserve, hot spiced grape Juice, and a grape tapioca pudding. A de licious grape pie may be made of Concord grapes. The Juice and pulp are heated for about 6 minutes, then rubbed through a sieve and thicken ed with com starch of flour. The grape skins and some lemon Juloe are then added and the filling la poured into the crust and baked In a hot oven for about halt an hour. MENU FOR ONE DAY .

What relief it Is after years of effort to appear beautiful to alt back In our mellow age and rest from our labors. However, some elderly women don't appreciate this period of ease, and continue to struggle with exterior beauty methodsnot realizing that our beauty comes from within. They go about with gayly made-up faces that only emphasize their lost youth. They dash their lips with red and strive to hide their wrinkles by surgical methods , , . giving artificial reflections In place of middle-aged contentment. To them I would suggest a comfy relaxation a passing on of the paint pots to the younger generation a relying on good old soap and water with a bit of powder for their beauty needs. By shedding our struggles, we have an opportunity of being natural and naturalness and simplicity la youthful. Roseburg. Bids received recently for furnishing 130 dormitory beds for veterans' home.

Without health there can ho little natural beauty. The wise woman knows that the condition of her body shows itself on her face, her complexion, and in her eyes. She takes care to avoid constipa tion. This treacherous ailment fre quently causes headaches, sallow skin, pimples, premature aging.

Phone 68 UTILIZE GRAPES TO FILL LAST OF JELLY GLASSES Is your Jelly cupboard as full as tt should be? Do you have enough full glasses In It to last you and your family through the winter? If you havent, you should make up for lost time right away, with grapes. For, plentiful as they are at the moment, they won't be In the markets long. And even if you do have a goodly supply of other jellies, you certainly should make a quantity of grape Jelly, for It Is the most popu lar kind with all members of the family. Don't thlnkv Juat because these days are full of plans for the fall,, that you don't have time to make Jam and Jelly. The economy of hav ing, your own cupboard full would pay you well, of Itself, but there Is really no necessity for spending hours over the. cook stove, In these modern days. A full batch of grape Jelly should not take you more than 15 minutes to make, after you have put the Juice on the stove. You need only add bottled fruit pectin to speed up the Jellying process and to yield you Jelly perfect In flavor and color. With sugar cheaper than It has been In many years, millions of wo men, all oyer the country, are turn ing to jam and Jelly making to help economize on the household budget. Both Jam and Jelly have Innumerable uses in cooklig, as well as having first choice as a wholesome spread for bread. Think how fine grape Jelly will taste on that winter morning ome lette; how excellently it will go on sandwiches for the children's school lunch box; how It will fit Into next spring's picnic basket. So, while there Is still time, put up grapes alone or In some of the de licious combinations which can be made with them.
