Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Jorthwst plums Wonderful Whan Eatan Out-of-Hand Botanically plums and prunes belong to the same species. The use. of the term "plum" and "prune" dates back for several centuries. "Plum" is Anglo-Saxon and "prune" is French. Or iginally they doubtless were synonymous. Today, a prune is a variety of plum which can b dried without fermenting when the pit is left in. Fresh prunes, as compared with plums, have firmer flesh, higher sugar content and fre quently higher acid content. A ripa fresh prune can be sep arated from the pit like a free stone peach but a plum cannot be opened this way. Of all the stone fruits, plums have the largest number and greatest diversity of kinds .and species; are grown In almost very corner of the country. However, commercial growing of plums is largely concentrated in California and Michigan and of prunes in Idaho, Washington, Oregon and California. Plums and fresh prunes are excellent eaten out -of -hand. They have refreshing tart-sweetness; make good pies, stewed fruit, preserves, jams. They're tasty In Ice cream.
