Cordy, Assistant County Agent Asparagus Preserving Methods Reviewed With local asparagus at Us peak homemakers will do well to review the best procedure in preservation methods. Freezing is the simplest and most satisfac tory method of preserving aspar agus. Of prime importance in freezing any food Is that it be put into the locker within 8 few hours after harvesting, if possi ble. Asparagus should be sorted, washed carefully and timmed to desired length. Blanching of vegetables in boiling water is a necessity to destroy enzimes that will cause an off flavor if the food is stored for any length of time. Place small amounts of aspar agus in a large quantity of rap idly boiling water and boil for two or three minutes. If steam blanching is used, blanch four to five minutes. Cool quickly in cold water and drain. The preferred method of pack ing asparagus is a dry pack, however, a two percent brine MONTOOMIRY WARD . i- Wards Wallpapers are Easier to Hang! Ai low at c a roll Wards lovely wstt papers are easier to hang, because of the perforated Trlm-Euy Edge. Ti just turn off. 1 1 no knife or "straight-edge" necessary. Give yon cleaner seams, and saves you time. Ward wall papers save you avowry, too, on any type pattern or quality, for any room In your home. Come la and aee Wards lovely stlection of paper for 194Si Montgomery Ward solution may be used. A satisfac tory method of storing aspar agus tips is to cut them in equal lengths and wrap in two thick nesses ol locker paper as Is done with meat. Short ends may be placed ia locker cartons, packed either dry or in brine. Asparagus is one vegetable that is definitely improved by quick freezing. In instances where there are no quick freez ing facilities at the locker plant it is advisable to spread the packages out throughout the locker so that they will freeze as quickly as possible. In canning asparagus ereat care must be taken In washing and preparing it, since the scales will conceal small particles of dirt in which botulius bacteria may be present. It is advisable to pack all vegetables except to matoes by the hot pack method and then process in the pressure cooker. Asparagus should be processed at ten pounds for 35 minutes for pint jars and forty minutes for quarts. Complete directions and time tables on canning asparagus are available in the new edition of extension bulletin on home food preservation. This bulletin No. 642 is available through the of fice of the home demonstration agent free of charge. Since methods of freezing foods have been changed greatly in the last few years, it is recom mended that you have an up to date bulletin on the subject. Extension bulletin No. 623 on Food Preservation by Freezing is available through this office. Marian J, Farrell Home Demonstration Agent DIDN'T GET ALONG Hollywood, May 3.

German People Reluctent To Look At Victims Of Murders By Robert Richards United Press Staff Correspondent Nuenberg, Germany, May 3 (U.R) It was hard to tell what the German people of this small town felt as they marched past the bodies of 161 prisoners slain by SS troopers. Why show this to me? seem ed to be their attitude. "I didn't do it. I didn't know about it." That was what the looks of most of them appeared to say. Others, especially the very old. appeared only bewildered and not quite certain why they had come. Jews Bury Own Dead But the Jews, who escaped the SS murderers, said what they felt. 'Do not touch our dead. We will pick them up ourselves," said Chuna Grunbaum, one of their number who made the long march here from the Flossenberg Concentration Camp. During the march those who were too weak to carry on, or who halted seeking food and wa ter were shot through the head or knocked down with a club. Every one of the bodies bore evi dence of either a bullet hole or smashed skull. Today the German men of Nuenberg carried coffins to the woods. But when the time came to put the bodies in the Jew cried "No Germans will touch our dead." So tenderly and quietly they lifted each body into Its wooden box. Germans Blamed While the Germans filed past the bodies, a German-speaking American sergeant told them over a public address system: "We blame you German peo ple for these misdeeds. You are responsible." First Lt. Edward Katz, Cleve land, O., kept 'the German file moving past the emaciated bod ies shouting: "Look at them. Go ahead and look." The Germans stared and hur ried past.
