Lifestyles Alone at last This youngster sits mulling over the situation of being left alone in the park to find something to do. He doesn V appear to be too worried over the situation as he relaxes on the see-saw. On The Front Burner Ellen S. Willis Home Economics Extension Oar gardens are beginning to mature - aren't they good? Let's enjoy them now and can and freeze any excess we might have. If you do not have an Extension canning or freezing book, come by the Ex tension office in the Lester Building on Magnolia Street Ex tension to pick up one or call. The Extension Office has two pressure canners that are rented for one dollar a day - rent goes for check ing gauge, gasket, etc. If you have never used a canner 1 will be glad to go through one canning if we can schedule it in advance. Remember Extension recommends that all low acid foods be canned under pressure. Your low acid foods are string beans, corn, okra, peas, lima beans, etc. In fact almost every vegetable except tomatoes. Fruits are fine in hot water bath. Let's play it safe. Do you have zucchini in your garden? Zucchini can be prepared in many ways. Margaret Thaggard shared with me a recipe that Joe Upchurch shared with her. Slice and dice zucchini in bite size pieces. Put them in a fry pan or wok with just a little oil. Stir fry until crispy tender. Add soy sauce and continue to cook until soy sauce cooks in. 1 have tried this and it is tasty. We have a file on zucchini if you wish other recipes call 875-2162. Have you tried zuc chini bread?

Protein Needed For Balanced Diet By Rebecca Smith Hoke Health Center For a balanced diet, everyone should eat some protein foods every day. To reduce you salt intake, these foods should include only unsalted fresh, frozen or canned lean meat, fish or poultry. Because even these contain cholesterol, it is especially impor tant that they be limited to six to eight ounces per day. All meats contain fat, but fish, poultry and veal contain smaller amounts of fat and should be eaten more frequently than other kinds of meat. By carefully selecting the meat you buy and by substituting other protein foods for meat, you can further reduce the fat in your diet. Dried beans, dried peas, soy beans, peanut butter and unsalted nuts may be substituted for meat or used as meat extenders. Dry cottage cheese made without added salt is another good substitute for meat because it is also low in fat. Most other cheeses contain significant amounts of salt, saturated fat and cholesterol. It is difficult to find cheese which is low in fat and unsalted. Surprisingly enough, egg whites may be used as a substitute for meat. Although egg yolks contain very large amounts of cholesterol, the whites contain neither cholesterol nor fat and may be used as often as you like. The American Heart Associa tion recommends that you use no more than three egg yolks per week, including those used in cooking or baking. The best meats for you are those lean cuts that have less fat around the outside and less marbled fat throughout the meat. Your but cher will be glad to help you select the leanest cuts. The selection of ground beef deserves your special attention. Again, the leanest meat available is the best for you. A medium-to-bright red color signifies a low-fat content, while a light pink color indicates that ex cess fat has been ground in with the meat. An even better idea is to select a lean cut of meat and ask the but cher to trim it and grind it for you. This is usually done at no extra charge. When selecting chicken, remember that broilers and fryers are preferable because they contain the least amount of fat. The following are NOT recom mended for frequent use because they contain large amounts of sodium, fat or cholesterol: lun cheon meats; frankfurters; sausage; spareribs; corned beef; liver and other organ meats; shrimp, smoked, cured or dried fish and meats including bacon and ham; canned meat, fish or poultry, unless packed without salt.
