AS LOOKS DECEIVE
Federal Bureau Gives Hints
On How To Select Fruit
Various Ways Of Serv-
ing For Variety Listed.
By V. S. Bureau of Home Economic.
It' peach time again.
...Thii down-skinned fruit la most
part of the United Statei started out
this year under such auspclous cir
cumstances that agricultural econo
mist and fruit men looked forward
to the largest crop since 1031 which
was a great peach year.
ID the ten southern states where
the crop is now being harvested, how-i
ever, freezea cut production to 38 per !
cent below Average. The result la
that June forecasts for the nation as
a whole were that the crop total
would be slightly below the 6-year
average 1938 to 1933.
Nevertheless the nation's market
baaketa will doubtless contain goodly
supplies of peaches especially through
out July and August.
Appearance Deceptive.
Some shoppers may need be warned
that the peach Is the gay deceiver of
the fruit world. It may wear a love
ly red blush and yet be so Immature
that It never will ripen but will
shrivel first.
On the other hand It may seem
hard to pressure, yet be almost ready
to be eaten, for some -varieties ripen
from the pit out. It'a not the blush
nor the lack of blush nor the hard
ness that tells the tale. It's the
background color. After the green
of the ground color starts to "break
s orchardlsta say after the white
or the yellow of the mature fruit be
gins to. develop then the peach is
a safe buy. Before that It may shriv
el before It ripens.
A peach of fine quality should
have , fresh appearance and be prac
tically free of blemishes. One with
a bruised spot will likely have a good
deal of waste to It more than might
be expected from size of the soft
spot on the surface. Underneath
large bruise la pretty sure to be & soft
discolored area. It Is almost Impos
sible to ship peaches without some
bruising, however, ao that you have
to be philosophical about a Uttle of
it.
Brown Rot Scourge.
Another thing to beware of la the
psach that shows signs of brown rot,
arch enemy of the peach orchard, es
pecially In the humid sections of the
east and southeast.
The first sign of brown rot Is a
tiny spook on the fruit. This speck
develops rapidly into a large spot,
beneath which the flesh Is deeply
affected. You get a peach with.
small spot of this fungus disease and
in a half day if heat and moisture
conditions are right there may not
be any edible part left. The disease
spreads like wildfire, to curse not
only the growers but also the ship
pers and the market men.
Over-ripe, soft peaches are not us
ually an economical buy at any price,
M they bruise easily and decay rap
idly. Small punctures with gum cos
ing from them should make one sus
picious of worm Injury. Your wormy
peach Is usually aofter than the av
erage sound one and appears prema
turely ripe.
Advised for Diet
Fruit has an Important place In
almost every diet list worked out by
nutritionists. In "Dleta to Pit the
Family Income" recently published by
the bureau of home economics, 9 to
10 servings a week of fruit are rec
ommended for a liberal diet and
those in sddltlon to the dally serving
of tomatoos or citrus fruit. For the
moderate -cost adequate diet, theao
nutritionist recommend one serving
dally of fruit in addition to the cit
rus-fruit-or tomatoes dally serving.
And for the minimum-cost adequato
diet, the recommendation is "one
serving dally of fruit or an addition
al vegetable" still supplementing
the citrus fruit or tomatoes.
Naturally, not all fruits are equal
ly valuable dletatlcally. Peaches,
however, have significant virtues be
yond their pleasing flavor. They are
a good source of vitamin O and a fair
source of vitamin B. And the yellow
fleahed peaches are excellent sources
also of vitamin A.
As to ways of serving peaches, it's
hard to beat them raw, either with
or without cream. And of course.
that's the way to eat them to get
the full benefit of their vitamin con
tent. But any cook likes some vsrlety In
her menus. So there are time when
she scouts about for other waya of
serving this fruit. That's the time to
put some of It into raw peach pie or
tarts, peach cobbler, dumplings or
puddings. Peach fritters are g rooted
with enthusiasm In the aversge Am
erican family.
Good for Salads,
Then there are Ice cream and sher
bet. A little lemon Juice e&y a ta
blespoon to a or 8 cups of sliced
peaches gives character to an Ice
cream which might otherwise be a
bit bland for general taste.
In sslads, peachea combine nicely
with other fresh fruit, nuts, cream
cheese, dstea and figs. Grind up some
figs, dates, and nut moisten with
cream or dreaalng and put a spoon
ful of the mixture In the center of
your peach halves In their lettuce
nest and you have a salad that is
good to look at still better to eat.
Another attractive salad Is made
by filling the center with a cottage
cheese-nut mixture and then put
ting on the top a salad dressing Into
which has been mixed sieved rasp
berries. The green of the lettuce
leaf, the pale yellow of the peach, and
the violet of the raspberries m this
combination would give a festive air
to the simplest dinner..
In whatever role the peach appears
at It beat It hsa a texture ml flavor
that commends It to all but the most
jaded appetites.
Motor Cruising for Fun o

BY HERBERT S. LAMPMAN
Staff Writer, The Oreaonlan
Oregon's incredible Cascade lakes
are moved half a hundred miles
closer to Portland with the opening
of the North Santiam highway.
Though that winding .thoroughfare
Isn't officially completed, The Ore-gonlan-Oregon
State Motor associa
tion cruise car managed to cover It
without ulfflculty recently following
a visit to Suttle lake.
Barring a brief detour which
was temporarily rendered difficult
by intermittent rain squalls the
highway is not only passable but
unique In Its beauty. The new short
cut to Suttle lake, as good a head
quarters as any In the region,
brings that vacation spot within
139 miles of Portland. Compare
that mileage with the old route
through Raymond via Wapinltia
cut-off. That route totals 210 miles
on anybody's specdomoter.
It will probably be several
months before the North Santiam
route Is cleared to fast tourist
travel, but it will be available this
summer and can bo traveled with
a minimum of difficulty.
Loop Trip Made
The cruise car made the big
loops from Portland to Bend and
then up to the lake. The Portland-Bend
highway needs no de
scription and the road from Bend
to.tho lake is as broad and smooth
as a ballroom floor.
Like most of these mountain re
sorts, Suttle lake is girdled with
trails and with a road that circles
the area. If you wish to try your
hand at riding, horses are available
a short distance away.
One charm of the place lies In Its
proximity to other recreational
areas. It Is only six miles from
the Metolius river a famed stream
where big rainoows may be taken
and only a scant dozen miles or
so from Clcnr lake, headwaters
of the McKcnzle river.
The fishing at Suttle lake Isn't
of the best, although the lake Is
fairly well stacked. Fish are small.
Tht lake is stocked with rainbow,
eastorn brook, VVilllumson's white-
fish and land-locked sllversldel lake and see for ourselves the vast' "How deep do you think thai

Santiam highway and turned in,
few miles distant, to Clear lake.
In other years this lake was at
tainable only by dint of driving
over an extremely difficult road
to Fish lake and walking the re
maining two miles to Clear lake.
We drove to Fish lake over a nar
row but excellently kept road and
continued on, over the same sur
face, to Clear lake, where we met
Ted Rodman, state police game
warden, and Captain Charles Mc
Clees, chief of the game division of
the state police.
Captain McClees Insisted that we

I feet deep. Some Idiot had tossed
an cjnpi,y lujiiulo can into me
center of the pool. It looked as
big as a cookie tin of 30-gallon
capacity.
Then we set forth again en route
to Portland. The highway was
broad and fast for a dozen miles,
and then we hit the only rough
"going" on the trip a detour of
perhaps 600 yards. For 10 or 12
miles the highway was rough and
muddy but easily passable, and
then we hit the finished surface .
along the Santiam.
Road Follows Canyons
We didn't get excited about the
river until we reached Detroit.
Here the road starts through the
Santiam canyon proper and no
trout fisherman ever saw a more
Inviting river. The mountain road,
hard and smooth, twists through
the canyon now 60 feet above the
river and now a full 200 feet' over
the water for miles and miles.
The river is one endless succes
sion of rapids and deep holes,
whittled down through the ancient
basalt. If you are an angler born
you will have difficulty in driving
the road, since every other bend
presents an angling eddy that sur
passes the last one.
As a scenic highway, completed.
It will surpass any road In Oregon.
It is the most beautiful drive In
the state right now.
The road follows the river down
the west slope of the Cascade range
in a grade that is an engineering
masterpiece. The slope Is so grad
ual that you won't even notice it
for many miles unless you observe
that the car's motor is "lazying
along" under semi-compression.
Suddenly you bounce out at Stay
ton, surrounded by some of Ore
gon's most beautiful farm country,
and thence to Salem and so to
Portland.
It is a drive you might make
on any Sunday, over a highway
that drops you Into the land of
tall pines and sagebrush In a
space of little more than four
hours.
