CRAFTCLASS
On Tuesday, October 4,
Mrs. Marilyn Poole, Home
Economist with the Jasper
County Extension Service,
will be teaching a class on
making silk flowers. Mrs.
Poole has taken a series of
classes on the art of making
silk flowers and we are
fortunate that she is willing
to teach the craft locally. The
workshop will be held at 1:30
p.m. in the conference room
of the C & S Bank in Jackson.
There will be a $2.00 fee to
cover the cost of supplies and
any samples you make will
be yours to take home. At
least ten people must
pre-register by Monday
September 26 in order for the
class to be held. If you are
interested in learning to
make beautiful silk flowers
please call the Extension
Office at 775-2601 to pre
register.
FREEZING MEATS
Meats are usually one of
the main items preserved in
home freezers. The main
reasons are: freezing pre
serves the natural, fresh
qualities of meats better than
any other method of preser
vation, meats are easily
prepared for freezing, money
may be saved if meats are
purchased in large quan
tities.
Start only with quality
meat and package it in
proper amounts to serve your
family. You can save freezer
space if you remove as many
bones as possible before
freezing. Recommended
packaging materials are
freezer paper, polyethylene
bags, or aluminum foil. Clear
food wraps or films should be
used only when you use a
second wrapping of foil or
freezer paper because some
films become brittle at low
temperatures. No matter
which packaging material
you choose, force out all air
possible and fasten the
package so that it is airtight.
If meat products are
purchased in the grocery
store, you should remember
to follow several important
steps: choose quality meat,
do not allow meat to stand at
room temperature, remove
from store package and
package in freezer ma
terials, label and store at 0
degrees or lower tempera
ture.
The truthful man, if less loved,
seeps well.
