MAKM ' „ Guidelines By Carolyn Avelino Home canning is old news. •But with the rising cost of food and the development of simplified processing methods, more and more homemakers are taking an interest in “storing up” when favorite foods are plentiful. For example, what better way to keep the fresh taste of summer fruits now coming into season than by preserving them with home canning and freezing? Because the big concern in preserving is spoilage, our home economists at Hunt- Wesson offer these guidelines for successful preservation. Always select ripe fruit that’s unbruised and still . firm. Add ascorbic acid to both canned and frozen fruits to ensure they will maintain their quality and natural color. Sugar will generally give processed fruits a better flavor and texture. However, light corn syrup or honey can be substituted for as much as half the sugar used in canning fruit or up to one fourth the ” fy Hearfe!

Always wash canning jars in hot soapy water before you use them and leave them in hot water until you fill them. You can use either the “open kettle” or “water bath” method of preserving, but make sure the method pertains to the fruit you are canning. Follow your recipe carefully! When packaging fruits for freezing, make sure your materials are moisture and vapor proof. It’s a good idea to label and date preserved fruit so you’ll know how long it’s beep on your shelf or in your freezer! Preserving fruit can be economical and fun for the entire family. You can save money by buying a large quantity of your favorite fruit when it’s plentiful. One easy way to determine seasonal ways is through the Hunt-Wesson Better Food Buys guide, which is printed monthly and available at participating supermarkets nationwide. These lists are compiled from information supplied by governmental agencies and grower association publications not readily available to consumers. It’s Hunt-Wesson’s way of making it better for you.

New waves of skippers mean that North Carolina’s lakes, rivers and coastal waters will be teeming with a wide variety of watercraft; everything from bass-boats to cabin cruisers and classy auxiliary-powered sail boats. Unfortunately, the rise in the number of boating en thusiasts has been paralleled by an increase in the number of boating ac cidents, according to the Insurance Information Institute. In North Carolina during 1978, 149 accidents were reported to the Coast Guard. These accidents resulted in 41 deaths, injury to 37 persons and $291,900 in property damage. The number of boating accidents involving injuries or property damage actually was much higher. A study has shown however that less than' 10 per cent of boating accidents are reported to the Coast Guard. Before setting out, —Check for faulty engine, fuel, electrical and steering systems, especially for exhaust-system leaks. Take advantage of the thorough safety inspection offered by the Coast Guard Auxiliary. The Auxiliary offers free safety in structions. Carry one or more fire extinguishers, matched to the size and type of the boat. Keep them readily ac cessible and in condition for immediate use. Equip the vessel with required navigation lights, and with a whistle, horn or bell. Consider additional safety devices, such as a paddle or oars, a first aid kit, a tool kit and spare’ parts, a flashlight, flares and a transistor radio. Have one Coast Guard approved personal flotation device for each person on board. Inspect them often and keep them dry and ready for use. Know and obey marine traffic laws, the “Rules of the Road”. Learn the various distress signals. Keep an alert lookout for other watercraft, swimmers, floating debris and shallow waters. There should be a second person aboard to act as a “spotter” when a skier is being towed. Check weather forecasts before venturing offshore. —Pay attention to loading - don’t overload; distribute the load evenly; don’t stand up or shift weight in a small SAVINGS 1 LOAN ASSOCIATION HmITY I I I I 600 D I SECURITY 1 lIWTERIST ** SMART ■a MONEY heads for the place where it has the best of everything such as good earnings, ready availavbility and insured savings up to ‘40,000.

Let someone know where you’re going and when you expect to return. Since boat insurance is not standardized, it is best to check with an insurance representative to make sure coverage is adequate. The size, type and value of the craft, the waters in which it will be sailed and the type and amount of coverage selected are factors that must be taken into account. Insurance companies provide physical damage coverage for outboard pleasure boats that protects not only the boat and motor but also the trailer, ac cessories and equipment. Insurance companies provide physical damage coverage for outboard pleasure boats that protects not only the boat and motor but also the trailer, ac cessories and equipment. Owners of large boats should consider a yacht policy. This policy provides hull coverage (physical damage for the boat and equipment) as well as Protection and Indemnity. P and I protects a boat owner against financial loss arising out of injury to others or damage to property of others. The collision clause of a yacht policy insures the boat owner when he is liable for damage to another boat caused by a collision between the in sured yacht and another vessel. Many outboard policies include coverage similar to that of the collision clause. The Institute hopes that this checklist will contribute to a summer season of carefree cruising, sailing, fishing or water skiing. Some behavior experts have found that it can be easier to meet a challenge if you don’t think about it too much. Needless worrying can actu ally make things harder. Q Ik -ik.-. 1«. A v i. ENGULFED BY SMOKE AND FLAME, this test vehicle was destroyed when one pint of gasoline was ignited in the trunk. Fortunately, the fire was a safety demonstration, not a real-life tragedy. According to Amoco, it is dangerous to store extra gaso line aronnd the home or in the car as a hedge against run-outs. A rear-end collision could cause the container of gasoline in the trunk or passenger compartment to explode even if the car’s tank is not ruptured.

Page 11-A Deafrig Wth Waste - Then And Now The way we deal with waste has improved consid erably over the years. THEN: From early times right up to the last century, people throw their household refuse out the cave mouth, doorway, window or what ever they had. In colonial times, pigs roamed the streets of America’s towns, feasting on garbage. iPpS NOW: People are reducing littei and solid waste while earning money. For each pound of aluminum (about 23 cans) taken to any of Reynolds Aluminum Recycling Company's 850 collection points across the country, they can gel 20 cents. A leader in recycling, Reynolds hies paid the public more than $100,000,000 for used aluminum. For more in formation, call 800-228-2525, toll-free. In Nebraska call collect (402) 572-7888.
