Questions
About
1. Q. What are the advantages
of brining cucumbers?
A. (a) The process "cures" the
cucumbers and helps stabilize
texture.
(b) The cured cucumbers
may remain in a 10 percent brine
solution for months and pickles
can be made as needed.
2. Q. What causes some pickles
to become soft during brining?
A. If the vegetables are not
covered with the brine solution,
or if the brine becomes too weak,
or if scum is not removed, soft
pickles may result. These should
be discarded.
3. Q. What is the purpose of
adding salt at intervals during
the brining process?
A. The process of "osmosis" is
at work. The water is removed
from the vegetables and
replaced by the brine. This water
will weaken the brine and may
cause spoilage. A 10 percent
brine should be maintained.
4. Q. Is it all right to use
"agricultural" and "builders"
lime for pickle making?
A. No. A purified form of lime,
calcium hydroxide, is the type
recommended. This may be
purchased at the drug store.
5. Q. What is meant by
processing?
A. Processing is subjecting a
jar of food to a heat treatment.
Most products discussed in this
bulletin should be processed at
simmering temperature for 10
minutes.
6. Q. Why should pickles and
relishes be processed?
A. This procedure is for the
purpose of accomplishing the
heat destruction of micro
organisms which are always
introduced into the product
during packing operations.

Processing also drives air from
the jar. Air left in the jar may
cause discoloration, loss of
flavor and may result, in
spoilage.
7. Q. What is simmering
temperature?
A. Processing at simmering
temperature, recommended for
pickfes and relishes, means
putting hot sealed jars into a
boiling-wat ir bath - water 1-2
inches over tops of jars - and
holding the temperature about
180-190 degrees for specified
time.
Know Your
Social Security '
Your Social Security Office is
as close to you as your telephone.
A telephone call to the office can
assist a future claimant in
determining whether he has the
necessary proofs available when
he is ready to claim benefits. Our
employes can check on
necessary proofs and how you
can acquire them if they are not
readily available. This means
that payments will be made
quickly when the individual
decides he is ready to claim his
benefits. The entire claim can be
completed over the telephone.
This procedure makes a trip to
the office unnecessary. The
information is taken over the
telephone and the claim form is
mailed to the beneficiary for
signature. He can return the
necessary documents with the
application for benefits by mail,
and never make a trip to the
office. ,
This is a boon to many of our
older people. They no longer

If. C. Half-Year U.S.
Savings Bond Sales
Exceed $33 Million
Sales of United States Savings
Bonds in North Carolina for the
month of June and the first half
of the year were the best since
1946.
Series E Bond sales for June
were 19 percent over June of last
year, while cumulative sales of E
& H Bonds and Freedom Shares
were up 15 percent.
January-June sales of Series
E. Bonds amounted to
$31,292,000 a S percent increase
over the comparable period a
year ago. January- June
cumulative sales amounted to
$33,138,818, a 2.7 percent in
crease over January-June of
1969r .and represented 52.3 per
cent of the state's annual dollar
goal of $63,300,000.
According to Bland W. Wor
sley, State Volunteer Chairman,
a major factor in this increase
was the fact that the savings
bonds division has experienced
one of its most successful years
ever in promoting the payroll
savings plan for the purchase of
United States Savings Bonds
among employees of industry
throughout the state.
Also, the new higher interest rate
of S percent paid on bonds makes
them more attractive to all
savers.
Sales in Perquimans County
for June were $6,835.00. January
June sales totaled $35,261.00.
This represents 70.7 percent of
Perquimans County's goal of
$49,879.00, according to R. L.
Stevenson, Perquimans County
Volunteer Chairman.
National Wheat
Referendum Is
Postponed
Secretary of Agriculture
Clifford M. Hardin has an
nounced postponement of the
national wheat referendum
previously scheduled for July 27
31, according to H. O. Carter,
State Executive Director of the
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service. The action
was authorized by Congrress.
The postponement permits the
USDA to delay holding the
referendum not later than Oc
tober 15, 1970, or 30 days after
Congress adjourns, whichever
date is earlier. .
Accordingly, the U. S.
Department of Agriculture's
ASCS, which administers the
wheat, feed grain, and similar
programs, has instructed its
state and county offices across
the nation to withhold ballots and
other referendum materials, Mr.
Carter said.
Mr. Carter explained that
basic farm legislation requires a
referendum for wheat marketing
quotas. However, the
Agricultural Act of 1965
suspended this referendum
requirement from 1965 through
the 1970 crop year. Unless new
farm legislation, now pending, is
enacted by the Congress, basic
legislation will again go into
effect, and a referendum will
then be required in 1970 for the
1971 crop year.
