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

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.

Food Preservation by Freezing

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.

The narrow path of the total
