Show Raw-pack Given OK in Canning Welcome news to Millard County Homemakers who can vegetables at home comes from food preservation preser-vation research of the U. S. Department De-partment of Agriculture, in cooperation cooper-ation with the Texas Ag. Experi ment Station. The research shows that the easier, flavor-saving raw-pack may be used for the first two spring vegetables, very safely. Asparagus, and green peas. The raw pack has been given the go-sign for snap beans, sweet corn, (either cream or whole kernel) fresh lima beans? black-eye peas, summer squash, and carrots. Aim of the research has been to establish the easiest methods for getting a safe and appetizing product, and to find the minimum safe processing times and temperatures for each product, and to find the maximum goodness with the fresh quality saved. The hot pack may be used, however, how-ever, if preferred. Because preheated preheat-ed vegetables pack more compactly compact-ly than raw vegetables, the hot pack saves space in jars and cans. Because asparagus is one of the season's earliest vegetables families fam-ilies who grow their own or buy it locally may be interested in the new "raw-pack" directions from the USDA. Count on using about 2to3 pounds of fresh asparagus for each quart of raw-pack canned asparagus. Choose fresh, tender stalks. Wash, trim off scales and tough ends and wash again. Cut in 1 inch length pieces. To raw-pack in glass jars, pack the pieces as closely as possible without crushing, to within V inch of the top of the jar. Adjust jar lids. In the pressure canner at 10 pounds pressure (240 degrees F.) process pint jars 25 minutes, to do quarts, 30 minutes. As jars are removed from the canner, complete the seal, if closurers are not self- sealing. To process in tin cans, pack asparagus pieces closely without crushing, to inch of top. Add Vi teaspoon of salt to No. 2 cans, 1 ts. to No. 2Vi cans. Fill to the top with boiling water. Exhaust to 170 degrees F. (about 10 minutes) and seal cans. In the pressure canner at 10 pounds pressure, process No. 2 cans and No. 2 cans 20 minutes. min-utes. Pearl Cox Home Demonstration Agent. Time Now to Cull Dry liwes Now is the time for sheepmen to cull "dry" ewes. A study conducted by the U. S. Sheep Experiment Station at Dubois, Du-bois, Idaho, shows that when ewes fail to lamb for two years and are bred a third year their reproductive performance is far below that of regular producing ewes. Russell R. Keetch, sheep and wool specialist at Utah State Agricultural Agri-cultural College, urges sheepmen to adopt a marking system in culling cull-ing "dry" ewes. This can be done with branding paint or with ear tags. Some shepherds slit the ear when they find culls such as non-breeders, non-breeders, poor mothers, or ewes with a bad udder. If ewes don't produce lambs thetrteeth do not deteriorate as rapidly as producing ewes. Also, "dry" ewes show big growth and are fat and good looking. A marking system is desireable because unless culls are designated they are not culled from the herd as efficiently as they should be. "With the cost of operation mounting and the full impact of the price squeeze apparent, sheepmen sheep-men must keep only producers in their herds." Production of pounds of wool and pounds of lamb per ewe should be the measuring stick applied ap-plied to individual animals. Selection Select-ion and breeding is a year round project. But now is the time to cull "dry" ewes. Marven J. Ogden Ass't. County Agent The Delta Food-oos 4-H Club The Delta Food-oos held their meeting Friday, May 18, at their leader's place.

The fish are about three inches long and were hatched from the Pan-guitch Pan-guitch and Kamas fish hatcheries hatcher-ies of the state fisli and game department. de-partment. The project, begun several years ago, has seen nearly half a million mackinaw planted in the lake. The Skougaard family, owners of the resort that bears their name at Fish Lake, set up a fund to help keep plenty of mackinaw mack-inaw in the lake, and through the Jaycees worked to get this project pro-ject underway.
