CANNING AND
FREEZING TIDBITS
Even though the hot dry
weather has really damaged
family gardens the harvests
are still great enough to
cause questions concerning
food preservation. Perhaps
some of the tidbits below will
help resolve some of the
questions that you may have
about canning, freezing or
drying foods.
- When blanching any
vegetable, lower the vege
table into boiling water,
place the lid on the container
and THEN start counting the
processing time.
- Tomatoes cannot be
frozen and have a fresh
tomato texture when thawed,
they can be successfully
frozen for cooked products.
- Dry mustard cannot be
substituted for whole mus
tard seed in pickle making.
Dry mustard is a powder
which would cause the
pickling liquid to become
very cloudy.
- If you have jelly that does
not jell and instead turns out
like syrup you can try
recooking it. You will
probably want to use liquid

- Fruits can be successfully
canned without sugar.
- The temperature in a food
freezer should be held at 0
degrees F or lower at all
times. If ice cream from your
freezer is easy to dip with a
spoon the freezer is above
zero degrees.
- When drying foods,
drying must be continuous in
order to prevent growth of
organisms.
- Food to be dried should be
cut into UNIFORM SIZES
and spread in THIN LAY
ERS to dry.
- Home canned fruits
sometimes float because of
either - using overripe fruit,
using too heavy a syrup,
processing too long or using
too high temperature for
processing.
- When too much sugar is
added too fast to pickles, they
may tend to shrivel.
- If lids do not seal, it is
possible to either recan or
freeze the food, if you do it
within 24-36 hours (and
assuming the food has been
properly canned in the first
place).
THE JACKSON PROCRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
Voices Out of the Past
COL. M. V. McKIBBEN
There is certainly not a
more live or public-spirited
gentleman in Middle Georgia
than the one whose name
heads the article.
Born and reared in Butts
County and believing in the
great future of Jackson and
Butts County as a business
and manufacturing center,
he is a fixture here and is
proving his faith by his
works. To say nothing of a
large block of business
rooms, he is dotting the town
on every hand with hand
some cottages: these he
rents to those who are not
prepared to build for them
selves at a very low rate of
interest. Thus our town is
growing and this gentleman
is raising monuments to his
memory that will stand long
after he is laid beneath the
sod. - Middle Georgia Argus,
Nov. 2, 1882.
EAST END NEWS
The brick kiln has been
burnt and some first class
brick are now offered for
sale. The clay for making
brick at this place is the very
best and this is destined to be
the leading brick yard of the
County. -- Middle Georgia
Argus, Nov. 23, 1882.
EAST END DOTS
The Post Office Depart
ment at Washington has
established a post office at
Indian Spring depot, named
Heard. Mr. W. F. Douglass
was appointed postmaster,
with Mr. M. A. Lindsey, of
the firm of Lindsey and
Bartlett, as assistant. The
application was made for the
name “Indian Spring Depot”
but owing to the similarity to
the name'of the trfd post
office at the Spring, the
Postmaster General changed
it to “Heard,” which was
done without the knowledge
of Mr. Heard, from whom the
office got its name.-- Middle
Georgia Argus, Nov. 23,1882.
DATA ON THE WING
Last Friday we reined up
our steed on the “square” at
Stark, and made a survey of
the improvements. So much
has been done since we were
here last, that we could
hardly realize that we were
not in one of the little new
railroad towns. Mr. James
Harkness, of Jackson, has
just completed anew store,
which is occupied by Parker
& Pope, who are just opening
up their new stock. Mr.
“Teg” Giles will, in a few
days, open in the store
formerly occupied by Parker
& Pope.
Mr. J.M.T. Mayo is
standing on the roof, nailing
the last shingle on his new
store, while T. G. Preston
puts the finishing touches on
the windows of the same.
There is talk of incorporat
ing the place with the
following ticket: Mayor,
“Teg” Giles; Marshall, Will
White; Councilmen Sam
Parker, Barth White and
Charley Thornton.

At Hendric Mill, we found
the miller, Willis Gunnells,
preparing the staff of life for
the people. The proprietors,
William Shield and Mattie
McMichael, are both practi
cal mechanics and keep their
machinery working “like a
charm.”
Although Worthville
missed getting the railroad,
it is by no means dead yet.
Two thriving stores are open
here, one occupied by
Hendric and Barnes, and the
other by John McCallum.
Worthville, which was once
noted for dissipation and
revelry, is now one of the
most orderly and law-abiding
villages in Middle Georgia,
and no place in Butts County
can boast of a more sociable
and hospitable people. --
Middle Georgia Argus, Dec.
7, 1882.
If you want your daughters
to grow up graceful and
comely, give them a cold
bath every morning, give
their hair one hundred
strokes with a stiff brush, let
their breakfast be made of
graham bread and syrup,
give them broad shoes with
low heels, and put them to
bed at 7 o’clock, every night.

On Golf
It is not uncommon on
occasions to see a deer
roaming around the Golf
Course at the Deer Trail Golf
Club. In fact on a mid Sunday
morning recently the Frank
Steinles, Frank and Dolores,
saw two as they, the deer,
sauntered along the fairways
between numbers four and
five holes.
Then, too, it seems that the
course mascot, Sam, has a
tendency on many occasions
to make a round or two with
some of the golfers generally
who are walking. This he did
with the McCalebs, Haris
and Allen, one morning. As
the twosome were playing
near the lake hole they
noticed Sam had found a
friend with whom he was
playing in their immediate
area. No, it was not the usual
stray dog you see around the
course, nor was it a deer.
This was a gray fox. It
seemed minutes that the two
were together then all of a
sudden the fox headed for his
den and Sam continued with
the McCalebs. Incidentally
this was the first fox reported
in the area in a long time.
They normally call him the
Teddy Bear. His name is Joe
Brown, Junior and it has
been reported that had he
followed a golfing career he
would have had a very
successful one. By the way
Joe has a distinction, that for
all probability will take years
to equal, or may never be
repeated. That is, of the nine
holes on the Deer Trail Golf
Course he has eagled every
one of them and a lot of the
boys still stop and think
before they take him on.

Reduce Sugar
The Senate select Commit
tee on Nutrition and Human
Needs recently recommend
ed that Americans reduce
their sugar consumption by
40 per cent a year.
At the turn of the century,
Americans consumed about
76 pounds of sugar yearly.
Today, that figure has risen
to more than 100 pounds.
Here’s a few suggestions
on how to cut down on sugar
consumption:
—Try not to add sugar
to cereals. Avoid frosted
or sugar-coated cereals.
If sweetening is a must,
add raisins, fresh fruits or

—Serve cakes without
frosting. If added sweetness
is desired, try sifting a little
powdered sugar over the top.
—Use less sugar in fruit
cobblers and crisps.
—Drink canned or frozen
fruit juices singly or in
a flavorful combination
instead of sweet bottled
drinks.
—When freezing fruits,
reduce the amount of sugar
per quart or pint of fruit.
When preparing fruits, toss
lightly with a small amount
of sugar to evenly distribute
the sweetness.
