PACE TEN HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON BERRY FLAVOR PRESERVED Bi COLD METHOD " ' - The rare and rich flavor that makes strawberries so popular : is best preserved Dy ireezmB, m-nrHine to Mrs. Winnifred K . Gillen,- Klamath county home Hpmnnstration : l -nt. In the freezing process, the berries also retain their fresh, attractive red . color and a good proportion of their valuable vitamin C. Can nine does not do justice to strawberries although they are, of course, excellent as pre- serves. . The berries are easily pre pared for the freezer locker. Mature berries should be used For best flavor, one should se lect the small sweei Derries near the end of the season. Wash them. hull, slice the larger ones, and pack them either in alter nate layers of dry sugar or in cold : syrup. When using dry sugar, thoroughly coat all parts of the fruit with the sugar, us ing about a half cup to a quart of fruit, save a generous layer of sugar for the top ot tne ber ries to helD keep out the air. -" When using-sirup, one should allow: one half inch- of head- soace for short pints, one inch headspace for tall pints, and one and a half inches for Quarts, to allow for expansion. Pack the fruit in locker containers of glass, tin, special waxed card board or cardboard with spec ial cellophane lining. Close them tiehtly. . Waxed contain ers may be sealed with a heated iron. , Tops of glass containers used in freezing should be com pletely screwed down only after freezing.. - Before freezing they should be : left partly sealed, Strawberries, . as other foods, should be frozen as soon as pos sible after harvesting and should be kept cool until they are processed. ' Frozen berries ' are best if served cold, before they are completely thawed. Klamath county homemakers who are in terested in further freezing de tails may request bulletins from the office' of the home demon stration agent,. 208, Federal building. 16 CUT 'WASHINGTON.

Gillen, home demonstration agent for Klamath county. If each member of the family is ncrt getting his or her full amount of milk or milk foods, steps should be taken to see that this is corrected, be cause milk contributes more than any other single food toward ffnnr nutrition. Every child should be given milk in some iorm as me Dever acrp at everv meal in the day. and the homemaker should make sure that each person over nign school age receives at least a pint of milk daily, one cup of which should be taken in fresh milk form, and tne rest ot wnicn may be added to the diet in cook-ins- . . Milt id the most nearly com- Dlete food, from a nutritional point of view of any that we have. One quart of milk con tains the same amount of cal cium as 40 slices of bread or 160 slices of boiled ham. It is a de pendable source of protein, vita mins A and G and of phosphor us when taken in suitable quan s.tities. Because of the very high food value of milk and milk pro ducts, therefore, it is one of the most economical oi tooas as wen as one of the most nutritious. Homemade milkshakes are a cool and refreshing summer drink for children who clamor for between meal snacks, Mrs. Gillen believes. The standard in gredients for a milkshake are a pint of milk, one tablespoon of sugar and a few grains of salt. To these may be added cocoa syrup (with half the usual amount of suear.) one teasnoon of banana or one-half of a mash ed banana, three drops of maple flavoring, one-third cup of fruit juice, or merely a teaspoon of vanilla. Place the ingredients in a jar and shake until blended, serving as cool as possible.

Neighbor" most commonly lacking in cal plum and vitamins A. B and C Emphasis is, therefore, needed on maintaining standard con sumDtion of dairy products, to matoes, citrus fruits, raw leafy and green and yellow vegetables, as far as war conditions allow. Three rules that should be ob served in keeping milk both tempting and healthful are to keeD it clean, cold, and covered, Milk should be stored in the coldest part of the refrigerator, below or. near the freezing ele ment. Although there has as yet been no shortage of milk in southern Oregon, Mrs. Gillen urges all Klamath county home makers to use every bit of the healthful fluid that comes into their homes, being careful not to waste any of this ideal food. Many new ideas and recipes for using milk, and cneese are on file in the home demonstra tion agents office, 208 Federal building, and may be had for the asking. One dish which Mrs. Gil len offers as typical of a good light meal containing a large amount of milk is: Baked Rarebit This dish calls for 8 slices of buttered bread, preferably whole wheat or graham, one-fourth pound American cheese, grated or ground, 2 to 3 eggs, about 3 cups of milk a teaspoon of salt and one-half cup of bread crumbs. Place four slices of but tered bread on the bottom of a square-cornered, oiled, shallow baking tin. Sprinkle one-half of the cheese evenly over the butter ed bread. Place another layer of bread and cheese. Beat eggs, add milk and salt. Pour this mix ture over the bread and cheese. Sprinkle bread crumbs on top. Bake in a moderate oven until a knife thrust into the center shows no liquid. As a variation, corn may be added or used in stead of bread and cheese. MILK CAN SALES 'El Farmers and dairymen c now buy milk cans from their regular dealers without purchase certificates. All restrictions on the sale of milk cans for the handling of milk or milk pro ducts have been removed, ac cording to word received today by the county agricultural coiv servation association. The sale of milk cans for other uses is still prohibited except under special authorization of the war food administration Wholesalers having insufficient supplies to meet the demand may appeal to the war food ad ministration for release ot manu. facturers' reserves. Such ap- peals should be sent to the state AAA committee for tneir reconv mendation. Merc Mission Ends in Death WINNIPEG, Man., July 13 (CP) A United States airman was killed and another officer is missing 'following the crash of a mercy flight plane in Hudson bay, iuuu mues north of. Win nipeg. Col. Jack C. Hogdson, com manding officer. United States army air forces, Central Canada command, announced here today that Second Lieut. Robert Hyde of Sherman, Texas, pilot of the plane, was killed, and Lieut. Oliver Austin of Trenton, N. J is missing. Austin was a mem ber of the United States medical corps. The plane was carrying med ical supplies to the epidemic- stricken Eskimos and Indians at Eskimo Point, 160 miles north of the northern port of Churchill. Congress Ephasiies Need For Legume, Grass Seed Congress has' given emphatic notice to the nation's farmers of the critical need for harvesting every pound of legume and grass seed possible by appropri ating an additional $12,500,000 to the agricultural conservation program to be used exclusively to encourage harvesting of these seeds. To assist farmers in expand ing their harvest into the . mar ginal acres of legume and grass seeds and encourage them to leave available acres for seed instead of cutting them for hay. the AAA's $3.50 per acre pay ment for harvesting grass and legume seeds will apply to the entire acreage harvested under the practice, and a special pay ment will be made on a pound basis for red' clover, alfalfa, and alsike clover. Previously, the AAA practice payment had been limited to 25 acres. The special payment rates are 3 J cents per pound (cleaned ba sis) for red clover seed, and 21 cents per pound (cleaned basis) for alfalfa and alsike. To be eli gible for the special payment, seed must be sold to a dealer, or if not sold to a dealer must be cleaned and tested. The pro ducer must submit satisfactory evidence to the county AAA committee. . J " ' Both the unlimited AAA acre age payment which applies to all seeds included under the original practice and special pay ments on the three kinds of seeds will be in addition to the sup port prices which are regarded as being extremely attractive. Needs are also particularly acute for sweet clover, ladino clover and sudan grass seeds. We have been using more of these legume and grass seeds than we have produced since Pearl Harbor as a result of un favorable weather and heavier war demands for forage and food crops. Imports have also de clined. "Unless everything possible is done to increase the harvest of these seeds this year, the avail able supply will fall far short of requirements," AAA Chief N. E. Dodd asserts. "Our domestic forage supply and conservation practices cannot be maintained unless we harvest more seed."
