PROCESS QUICKLY
One mistake in processing food
for home storage is “putting up”
too much food at one time. Miss
Nelle Thrash, food preservation
specialist with the Extension Ser
vice. says many products lose
their goodness by staying in the
home too long before they are
canned or frozen. She suggests
arranging the schedule so foods
can be processed quickly.

Jackson Boys
Up In Air-
On Their Bikes
Should local residents become
startled at strange looking con
traptions the younger set are rid
ing lately, don’t be. According to
Jimmy Freeman and Hugh Bond,
two youths seen on the machines,
they are just riding their bicycles
—upside down, that is.
The youths dismantled their
bikes, carried them to a welding
shop where extra pieces were
welded to the inverted frame to
take care of the seat and handle
bars. Those extra pieces elevated
the seat and handle bars about
two and a half feet in the air. The
wheels were added to the inverted
frame to complete the monstros
ity.
So the boys are having a great
time riding high, wide and up
side down.
They also claim that the weld
ed parts can be broken off and
the bikes restored to their original
appearance.

Judging Contest
David Cook, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Gus Cook, was second place
winner in a judging contest held
Saturday, August 15, during the
third annual Georgia Junior Here
ford Association Field Day at

the third annual meeting.
Konrad Purdy, manager of
Windsweep Farms, and other
farm personnel expertly exhibited
the cow herd and bull battery
to the 200 people in attendance.
The judging contest consisted of

while on a cross country flight
and landed her light plane on the
Old Griffin road near Jackson.
The road is in the process of be
ing paved. It leads from Jackson

and joins Highway 16 at the
Middle Georgia Livestock Sale
Barn.
Mrs. Caswell who lias her stu
dent license and is working tow
ards her private license was
bound for Athens from the Grif
fin airport. Heavy clouds that
made all towns look the same
caused the solo pilot to decide
to turn around and fly back to
Griffin.
Mrs. Caswell landed on the
gravel road and a passing mo
torist told her where she was.
She called the Griffin Airport
for help and Mr. and Mrs. “Skip”
Alison, also of Hampton, came to
her aid.
Mr. Alison flew the plane back
to the airport and Mrs. Caswell
rode back in the car with his wife.

continue to fly.
