Central Medford mm Specialists Give Hints On Drying of Nuts "You like hats," said the voice beside our desk one day last week, "so I came in to show you mine." The voice be longed to Mrs. N. F. Gier, and her hat did indeed interest us. It was made entirely of small feathers from cock pheasants, glued to a felt cloche. The top of the hat is covered with little bronze-colored feathers that glisten in the light, and the feathers with markings and designs were arranged around the crown and on the brim to form a pattern. One type made up a band around the crown, and others were arranged to form a tiny fringe over the edge of the brim. As a contrast, Mrs. Gier used two or three small clusters of bright blue feathers since the dress worn with the hat is blue. Mrs. Gier said the pheasants, three of them, were shot by her husband and one of her two sons. She removed the quills and down from the feathers, and used only the tips on the hat. The down she carefully stripped off and put into a plastic sack meaning to make a tiny baby pillow if there were enough. However, that project was ruined by the family cat. Entranced by the bird smell coming from the sack, the cat got into it and when Mrs. Gier arrived on the scene, the weightless down was scattered all over the floor, the furniture and television set. She picked It up with the vacuum cleaner. The hat, and a matching bag which she decorated with some of the feathers, weren't the first project of this sort, for Mrs. Gier. Several years ago she began experimenting with feather corsages, and made and sold hundreds of them to provide herself with pin money. Seeing a blue feather corsaee which Potpourri had received as a gift when the Oregon Federation of Women's clubs held a district institute here. Mrs. Gier wanted to know who had made it. The dye job was excellent, she decided, and plans to can me woman in Grants Pass who makes the corsages in various gorgeous colors, to find out if she will divulge her dye secrets. Several davs ago Potpourri had a short but highly Inter esting talk with Uze Albert of Salzburg, Austria, a guest in Medford of Mary Ellen Bell, former public neann nurse wun Jackson county. Miss Bell met the Austrian woman, a teacher of music and languages, when she was in fcurope, and lnvuea her to spend some time in Oregon when she came to the United States: The two women explained that Ilze Albert should be addressed as "frau" instead of "fraulein" even tnougn sne is not married, since in her country a woman of her years nnrt esteemed nosition as a teacher would be given the title of frau as a courtesy. When we complimented Frau Albert on her excellent command of the English language, she beamed.

Oregon State college spe cialists offer these other hints for cleaning, drying, and stor ing filberts, Black and Eng lish walnuts. To prevent mold, pick nuts soon as possible after they've fallen. They mold if stored over three days un dried in a sack, say food technologists. Clean by dipping in buckets of clear water, and place on screens to dry. Nuts may be taken to a commercial dryer for fast treatment or can be spread out at home, in single layers, in a cool dry attic or basement. Screens should be placed about 8 inches above furnace outlets or hung over stoves. Heat source should never be hot enough to scorch the nuts. Heat breaks down the fat which may make them bitter. Ideal drying temperature is between 90 and 100 degrees. Oven temperatures are too warm to dry nuts. Fans Useful Household fans provide a handy way of blowing heat from the furnace across the nuts. Walnuts are dry when the membrane between the two halves is brittle. Commer cial drying takes about 24 hours: home drying about three days. After nuts are dried, they should be stored in a cool, dry place. Store In mesh bags in a cool, dry room. Dried nuts may have moisture returned to them if hung in utility areas where steam collects from washers and dryers In-shell nuts are protected by nature to stay fresh, says Mrs. Ruth Klippstein, OSC's extension nutritionist. They may be stored at room tem perature for short term storage-two to three weeks. Kernels or nut meats should be placed in a tightly sealed jar and refrigerated. Frozen nut meats keep well for two years, say college food tech nologists. To use, remove only amount needed and return rest to freezer. Nuts for im mediate cooking uses do not require thawing. Mrs. Klippstein suggests families mail extra bags of nutmeats as Oregon treats Pack in moisture-proof freez er bags, seal, and mail in empty oatmeal cartons, or cans with lids. For attractive looking whole kernels, favored for decorating holiday goodies. place walnut on flat end, hold Ballot Measures Are Reviewed In Eagle Point Eagle Point - The last meeting of the Eagle Point Lions auxiliary featured a re view of ballot measures by Mrs. John Ousterhout, a mem ber of the Medford League of Women Voters speakers ureau.
