Plan Demonstration Of Food Freezing . In County Schools Three food freezing demon strations have been planned for women of the county this week according to Miss Eula Winter mote, county home demonstra tion agent.

"Miss Wintermote points out that "freezing cherries, berries and fruits this summer will give homemakers more time for bet ter living." "Freezing food that is in abun dance makes for economy in the food budget," she states. "Freez ing food is a convenience, and it is always ready when friends drop in. "Freezing food right from the garden or orchard gives high quality food and more food val ue is saved than in any- other means of preservation." Nutrition Specialist Urges Use of Rabbit More and More Oregonians are discovering just how good rab bit meat can be. If you've never tried it, take a tip from Agnes Kolshorn and do it now. Miss Kolshorn, extension nu trition specialist at Oregon State college, says that rabbit is one of the most economical meats you can buy. And it makes mighty good eat ing, too. The meat of domestic rabbits resembles chicken. All of it is white, like the breast of chicken. It's fine-grained; del icately flavored, and very nu tritious; pound for pound, there's more edible meat on a rabbit than on a chicken. For frying, choose plump young rabbits weighing from two to two and a half pounds, dressed.. Then go ahead and use your favorite chicken recipe. Bigger rabbits, which may weigh up to six or seven pounds, need longer, slower cooking. They are excellent served in chop suey, fricassees, casserole dishes, salads, ad meat pies. . Rabbit livers cooked, mash ed, and mixed with seasonings make delicious spreads for sand wiches or appetizers. When serving rabbit, remem ber that it is all white meat, and very: delicately flavored. This means that it may be improved with a little extra seasoning more spices. - 1 Meeting Announced For Temperance Union Degree of Honor has scheduled a meeting for Tuesday, July 8 in KP hall at 8 p.m. Mrs. H. G. Wilson, state past president, announces that here after there will be - only one meeting a month of the lodge, this to be on the second Tuesday of each month.

The committee hopes to have a turn-out to break the previous record of 500 people attending the picnic. Salads Now Important In Diet of Americans Salads have grown in impor tance in the American diet and are now considered a must in planning a well balanced meal. Good salads abound in health giving minerals and vitamins. One of the smartest ways to serve salad today is in the popu lar salad bowl, popular because of its ease of preparation. The salad maker should remember that ingredients should be uni form in size and large enough to retain their identity and that there's more appetite appeal if the arrangement of the salad is casual rather than "fixed." The ingredients should be tossed lightly, or arranged on lettuce. Always have salad greens fresh, crisp and clean. Both greens and other salad ingred ients need thorough chilling. In addition to head and leaf lettuce, try watercress, endive, romaine, and the tender leaves of spinach. Pat greens dry with soft towel after washing. To separate head lettuce for "cups," cut out core with point ed knife and allow cold water to run into opening. The flavor of cooked vegeta bles for salad is impraved by marinating in French dressing for 30 to 60 minutes. Drain fruits and vegetables thoroughly be fore using. r Ice-Cube Cool!

Extension Specialist Gives Correct Method For ' Vegetable Freezing The garden seson is well un derway, and home economics ex tension agents around the state report they're already getting questions about freezing vegeta bles. . ' .' . "Should I blanch my vegeta bles?" seems to be asked most often. - . . Agnes Kolshorn says "yes. Miss Kolshorn . is extension nu trition, specialist at Oregon State college, and she. advises you to blanch , or scald, whichever word you prefer your vegeta bles even if they're going to be stored for only a short time Tests were made recently on asparagus, green beans, and sweet corn. Some were blanched before freezing and some were not. The unscalded asparagus de veloped off-flavors, and it dis colored. Not only that, but the scalded asparagus had a . little more vitamin C at the end of three weeks storage. Unscalded green beans de veloped off -flavors and poor color by the end of two weeks, when stored in the freezer. A definite off -flavor developed in the.unblanched corn in only 24 hours, and the flavor was poor in four weeks' time. On the other hand, the scalded vegetables showed little change in quality from beginning to end of the storage period. So you can see that if you blanch vegetables before freez ing, you'll protect their flavor, color, and general eating quality. Workshops on Sewing Valuable to Members Of Extension Groups " Among the many valley wom en who have gained much sew ing and tailoring information through extension service work are Mrs. Artice Burns and Mrs. Margaret Fitzgerald, members of the Medford Home Extension unit. A release from the Oregon State college extension service at Corvallis points out that both Mrs. Burns and Mrs. Fitzgerald have taken workshop training in making cotton dresses, better dresses and tailored garments, and have in turn given demon strations for fellow members. In tailoring, they learned to make the pattern up first in muslin. Thus they could adjust their patterns without fear of damaging expensive material. Then they cut their garments according to the muslin patterns, which of course fit perfectly. Mrs. Burns and Mrs. Fitz gerald decided it would be a good idea, too, to make a muslin pattern for a basic dress, and they demonstrated this for mem bers of the Medford Home Ex tension unit. Each woman made a muslin pattern, and one wom an also made two basic skirt patterns, one for a straight skirt, and the other flared. - In fitting their muslins, many homemakers were surprised to find their body measurements were not the same on both sides. That's one reason for poor fits in both patterns and ready-made dresses. But their muslin patterns were made to fit each woman perfect ly, and they can now be used over and over, to make other mades. Miss Jean Farley Ends Vacation Here Miss Jean Farley returned to San Francisco Saturday after spending two weeks in Medford with her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Kenneth Farley.

This is ten percent' of the twenty million women who held jobs during the peak of the na tions's war effort. Even though large numbers of women are continually mov ing in and out of their jobs be cause of marriage, children and other reasons, the census fig ures show that one woman out of eight with a job in American works in the same place she did' ten years ago. In these years she may have been advanced from an apprentice job to a more Im portant one, but her employer has remained the same. Of the two million war-time women workers who are still working for the same employers today, the census figures show, half are now married and about a fifth of them have children. In the case of most of these mothers, their children are be tween six and 17 years old. Holds Wash Cloths Pretty! Useful!
