August 2!, 1963 HERA J) AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon SAVING FIRST FOR HOME PAYS By PEGGIE EETZLER County Extension Agent The family that can save enough to make a substantial down payment on their new home gains in two ways they reduce the overall cost of the home, and a portion of their paycheck is committed for a shorter time. About $2.4 billion on mortgage debt was outstanding in Oregon last year with the average length of home mortgages running about 20 years. The typical length of home mortgages is considerably longer today. In 1940, 20 years was the maximum length. Today, three out of four new mortgages arej Market Basket Food Marketing Specialist (Oregon Stale University FRUITS Heap the fruit bowl with peach, es. nectarines, grapes, plums, pears, lemons, bananas, and have a supply of blueberries and mel ons. Any one or a combination will make good summer 6nacKs, salads, desserts, breakfast fruit. It's the best time of year for making meals appealing with fresh fruits. Oregon watermelons have ar rived. Striped melons are much in evidence. Everybody Knows cantaloupes are good and reason able, as are honeydews. Lemon juice picks up the flavor of honey dews, cranshaws, cassabas. Sliced peaches or nectarines, sprinkled with lemon juice and sweetened to taste, will keep their bright fresh color even if pre pared well ahead of mealtime. Spoon onto cereal, shortcake, over ice cream, or simply in a dish, then add on inventive top ping. Add blueberries for color and taste appeal. The Oregon, Washington, and California Bartlett pear crop Is expected to be considerably be low average. About a fourth of the crop is marketed fresh; the rest are canned for year around use. Peach crop for fresh mar kets in the West is about a tenth , below aveage. Fresh plums and prunes are at their peak of sup ply in August. Western Oregon prunes were practically wiped out by poor pollinating weather. Uma tilla County may supply 7,000 tons of prunes. California grape crop is large. August varieties .include Thomp son Seedless, Rihier, Cardinal Hed Malaga. The Thompson Seed less crop may bo the largest on record . . . the majority of Seed less goes into raisins. VEGETABLES Snap beans for eating, canning. or freezing. Cooked beans are good hot or cold. August is fresli corn month, . too. Remember sweet corn is del icate. If allowed to become warm for even a very short lime, . it loses much of its sugar; thus flavor is affected. Researchers report that at ordinary summer , temperatures, about half of the sugar content of mature corn is lost within 24 hours. At 60 de grees, the loss is cut to around 17 per cent in the same time. It's a good idea to buy today only the amount of com which will be used by tomorrow. Make fresh sweet corn the last pur chase at the store; then hurry it home to the refrigerator. There's a big choice of other locally grown fresh vegetables- cabbage, cauliflower, celery, broc co!i, beets, collards, mustard greens, lettuce of several vari eties, radishes, green onions. Using fresh beets is simple, Simply wash, cook in water to - cover, then peel. Use cooked beots ; buttered, pickled, or Harvard style. PROTEIN FOODS Picnic weatlier! And any picnic can have chicken or turkey on the menu . , . cither is plentiful and low cost. Cook poultry on the rotisscrie, or barbecue it. Slow, even cooking helps retain juici ness and favor. Cook it to the well done stage. We may see some downward price trend in smoked meals as I.iilior Day approaches. Regard less, some markets continue to special ham, picnic, and bacon. ; Attractive shopper prices have , been noted on lamb cuts; this may continue as supply is more than taking care of demand. Qual '. ity of beef coming to market is . excellent; prices remain about tiie same. Many seafoods offer low cost eating. Since many of Oregon's . markets are convenient to sea food source of supply, shoppers are offered really high quality fish and shellfish. Abundant canned tuna is popular and eco ' nomlcal for summertime salads ' and sandwiches. for 30 years and some even for 35 years. (Tlie Housing Act 1961 permits the Federal Housing Administration to insure 33-yea mortgages on new homes.) Just how much a family is able to save on short-term mortgages is offered in this example: A fam ily pays $17,823 interest on $13,000 loan for 33 years at 5' per cent interest, compared $9,264 on the same size loan at the same rate for 20 years. By taking advantage of the short-term loan, a family could save more than $8,500, Families are reminded that the purchase of a home represents the biggest single investment they' ever make. They need to consid er the advantages of using long term mortgages in relation to the additional costs to the family. Equity in the home builds up much more slowly with a long- term loan, says Mrs. Johnston. Families (hat agree to a long term mortgage will want to be sure that the contract permits early repayment if the family finds that this is possible, so they can take advantage of the savings of a short-term loan. Long-term mortgages do enable lower income families to become home owners. With specified amounts for monthly housing pay ments they permit a family to buy a more expensive house Long-term mortgages may also make it easier to sell the house, because prospective buyers may be attracted if they can assume long-term mortgage and make only a small cash settlement. With a rather general increase in prices of houses since the ear ly l!)40's, most home owners have experienced a rise in the value of their homes rather than a de fease by depreciation. But dur ing the past year, real estate prices are reported to have stabil ized in many areas. If Uicy continue to level off or decline, some owners with long- term mortgages may find they cannot sell their homes for enough to pay their remaining debt. In 11)41, there was outstanding mortgage debt In the U.S. of less than one-half billion dollars. In the last eight years, it has risen r-Pfti from $145 billion to $250.5 billion.
