Medford Women Seek Adventure; Take Canoe Trip Down Willametfe Two adventurous Medford women are looking forward to other canoe trips on Ore gon streams, undaunted by the fact that they almost drowned while making their iirsl one. " The two women, Mrs. George Flanagan and Mrs. Sam Taylor returned home last Friday after having spent Jive days in various phases of flie excursion. This included the trip to Eugene by car, load ed with the canoe and equip ment; launching of the craft On the Willamette at Eugene, the upsetting of the canoe and Joss or thorough wetting of their clothing and supplies when the expedition had hard ly started, and a night spent in a home near the river where a kind family helped them dry out their sleeping bags and clothing in order that the adventure might con tinue. Mrs. Flanagan and Mrs. Taylor had made what they thought were rather thorough preparations for the trip.

(Mr. Flanagan is manager of the company). Take No Food They decided not to take any food, but to trust to the good natures of friends and relatives along the way, and were also hopeful that there might be small stores or other places where food could be obtained. They drove to Eugene Mon day, parked the car, launched the canoe and not long there after capsized when the cur rent around a sandbar "which was a lot swifter Mian we thought it was going lo be" swept them under some low hanging branches of river-side I roes. For a time both women were thoroughly frightened and very busy. They at length righted the canoe, which has the air compartments to make the craft safer, rescued their possessions, with the excep tion of Mrs. Flanagan's bill fold with her identification papers and driver's license, made it to shore, spread their clothing on blackberry bushes lo dry, and then sat down lo plan their strategy. It began to rain.

The Medford woman made her way, after considerable walking, lo the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Jensen of Junction City. When Mrs. Flanagan explained the pre dicament to the Jensens, and apologized for troubling them, Mr. Jensen said "Oh, you're not the first ones to come up out of the river." The kind man look a farm automobile lo the scene of the accident, brought back Mrs. Taylor and the equipment, and tho four set about trying to dry out the sleeping bans, one of which was thoroughly soaked. It was put into the electric dryer, and Mrs. Flan agan reports that it look al most three hours lo get inlo shape for use that night. Tuesday morning Mr. Jen sen returned the women lo Eugene, where they picked up the car and drove to Albany to rest at the home of Mrs. Flanagan's sister. At this point they abandoned the en tire idea of the canoe trip and Wednesday morning actually started lo drive to the beach to spend the rest of their vacation. As they drove along all of a sudden one said to the oth er, "We're two chicken-hearted coward s." The other agreed, Mrs. Flanagan turned Hie car around and they head ed back to the river. By noon they were on the water again and having loariferi their les son, were more cautious about gravel bars and cur rents. They traveled down the river until nightfall, slept on the bank and the next day continued into Salem where they wore met by Mrs. Tayl or's sister, bearing food. The shoeless Mrs. Taylor all this time had been wearing one shoe on one foot and two stockings on Ihe other. "We're real glad that we didn't go on to the beach, Mrs. Flnngan reported upon their return to Medford. "It was exciting and real fun. Too many of us never have any exeitemenl in our lives. Now that we know about cur rents, white water, etc.. we're going to try again. All the way home we kept looking at rivers and streams and wondering if we could navi gate them in our canoe." Roth Mrs. Flanagan and Mrs. Taylor were filled with praise for the hospitality of the Jensens. Mrs. Flanagan's main annoyance was directed at an unknown man in the Albany police department, and at a reporter. After the two women had checked in with the Albany police con cerning the loss of Mrs. Flan agan's billfold and driver's license, and had visited two different offices, a slory in the Albany-Domocrat-llorald referred to them as "two women who failed lo give their names." "We did too give our names, along with our ages and a lot of other information," protest ed Mrs. Flanagan. "The story sounded like we were running away, or something. We just wanted adventure and excite ment, and we found both."

Kennedy, during the recent Kennedy-John son press conference, Home Canning, Costs Cam pa red byOSC Corvallis - How much can be saved by canning and freezing foods al some? Or can home-makers save more by filling the freezer or cup board shelf with store-pur chased foods? Oregon families need their own individual "slide rule" of values to answer these questions, says MPs. Ruth Klippstein, Oregon State Col lege extension nutritionist. They can save more, in both time and money, on some foods than others. To compare costs, first fig ure expenses of home freez ing and canning. Freezing costs at least three cents a pound for packaging and nlay add up to 25 cents a pound for food, packaging and freez er operation. For this reason, a may be cheaper to shop for some frozen foods and let the grocer pay for year-around storage, she says. Other costs that should be considered are availability of raw foods, transportation costs, and the value placed on homcmakers' time. Canning containers average between 5 to 8 cents for jars and lids. Other costs include raw food, plus other ingre dienls, and canning equip ment. Use Canneries Mrs. Klippstein also sug gests that homemakers look to custom canneries for short cuts in more time-consuming or messy chores. Corn, for example is one food that canneries will help get ready for canning or free& ing. Husking, blanching and cutting whole kernels takes only a few minutes with a cannery's power equipment, she continues. Any homemaker who has cleaned up a kitchen after canning corn will appreciate not having to pick up silk and kernels that are scattered dur ing the process, she says. Corn may be taken home in dish pans for canning or freezing or be canned at the cannery. Homemakers will probably save by doing their freezing Townsend Club Announces Picnic Medford Townsend club auxiliary will hold another picnic at the west side of Hawthorne park WedtKJsda.Nf) August 3, at 12 noon.

Tomato juices and applesauce are oth er suggested cannery jobs. Homemakers can give them selves an extra day's vacation from home canning this year if they skip making apple but ter, catsup and chili sauce at home. It takes all day to pre pare these products and com mercially prepared ones are excellent quality and about the same in cost. Oregon homemakers seem to prefer to can peaches and pears for fresh full flavors. They also are able to satisfy family preferences for sweet ness preferred. On a strictly dollar and cents basis, some foods may be cheaper to buy than to put up at home. Sweet pickles, for example, cost more to make than dills because of extra sugar called for in sweet pickle recipes. Yet, sweet pickles are about the same price as dills at the market. Shoppers can also take ad vantage of large quantity pur chase prices offered on sum mer freezer sales.

III 1 HI J Federal Standards Announced For Frozen Desserts, Ice Cream Washington, D.C. - Federal standards for the composition and labeling of ice cream and other frozen desserts were an nounced last week by the Food and Drug administra tion. The standardized products are: regular ice cream; egg- conlaining ice cream sold as frozen custard, French ice cream, or French custard ice cream; ice milk often sold as soft ice ;ream; fruit sherbets; and, water ices. The standards, FDA said, should assure that the pur chaser will be able to select the product of choice. They establish firm minimum re quirements and provide a sound basis for proceeding against products cheapened by the omission of expected ingredients or the substitu tion of inferior ingredients. Food Vajue The standards provide safe guards against practices which would result in adul terated products, and permit only ingredients of generally recognized or proven safety, FDA said. In addition, the standards for ice milk, fruit sherbets and water ices should pre vent these products from be ing represented to consumers as ice cream, or as having greater food value than they actually have, the agency said. For assyrancc of nutritive quality, the standards require (with certain specified excep tions) that ice cream and French ice cream contain at least 20 per cent by weight of mills solids, of which at least 10 per cent must be milk fat. Frozen custard or French custards or ice creams must also have a specified amount of egg yolk solids. Parallel re quirements for the other froz en dairy products are: Ice milk-Not less than 11 per cent of total milk solids, of which not less than 2 per cent and not more than 7 per cent are milk fat. Fruit Sherbets -Not more than 5 per cent total milk sol ids content, of which not less than 1 per cent and not more than 2 per cent are milk fat. For protection against cheapening ice cream, the standards restrict the addi tion of air and water to the ice cream mix. To prevent ex cessive aeration, ice cream is required to weigh at least 4Vi pounds per gallon. To prevent adulteration by addition ofeously a new regulation un to the modern story i- 135 panel bed and bedside table 3 I I.IHill'l v;WUtTTTT far water, the standards require ice cream to have a total sol ids content of not less than 1.6 pounds per gallon. To pre v e n t possible adulteration with permitted stabilizers, the standards restrict the use of any one or a combination of stabilizers to not more than 4 of one per cent of the fin ished ice cream. (Stabilizers, in addition to retarding for mation of ice crystals in stor ed ice cream, also affect the capacity of a mix to hold air, make ice cream stiffer, drier, and slower melting, and pro vide smoothness) The standard do not per mit neutralizing agents which would make it possible lo use sour dairy ingredients. The recent order conforms with the tentative ice cream standards published March 26, 1958, with these principal ex ceptions: Artificial Flavorings The flavor of vanilla ice cream may be supplied by na tural vanilla, artificial vanil la (vanillin) or a blend. The proposed standards published in March, 1958, did not pro vide for the use of artificial flavoring in ice cream char acterized by vanilla beans or vanilla extract. This was a major basis of industry objec tions. The addition of natural or artificial flavors to fruit sher bets is also permitted by the recent order, although not contemplated by the former proposal. Whether or not ar tificial flavor is used, the fruit sherbets must contain proportions of fruits. The package labels of ice cream and fruit sher&ets are required to inform consumers of the use of any arjded flavor ings whether natural or arti ficial, except that where a mixture of both natural and artificial flavors so used, and the artificial flavor predom inates, only the artificial flav or may be declared. Casein and casein com pounds made from skimmed milk have been used to avoid "sandiness" caused by the crystallization of milk sugar in high-rolids ice cream prod ucts. The order permits their use on condition that they do not replace any part of the required minimum of 20 per cent total milk solids in ice cream. While not a part of the published standard, the agen cy also announced simultan- j. ft i SACiA is beauty disciplined to practical, every-day living.
