Tips on Processing Fruits
Almost all fruits produced
in Georgia can be frozen suc
cessfully. Let’s consider some
of the important points to re
member in processing some
of these Georgia fruits.
Decide how you plan to use
the fruit and; freeze it accord
ingly. For example, if you are
freezing strawberries to be
used in making strawberry
shortcake, you would want
sliced berries. For *ruit ice
cream, you would want to
freeze mashed or nectar. For
fruit pie, .go ahead and make
the pie filling and freeze it in
pie size containers. Fresh
ja m, marmalade, preserves
and jelly can be made from
frozen fruit,
* Ohce you make this decision
of how you are going to use
the fruit, follow the latest re
search methods for freezing
each fruit,
. In canning peaches, pears
and apples, remember that
enzymatic browning occurs if
the peeled product is exposed
to air. As soon as the fruit is
peeled, place it in a salt-vine
gar water solution. Be sure to
rinse the fruit in cold water
before placing it in the syrup.
Best results are obtained if
you pre-cook the fruit before
packing it in the jar. Black
berries, however, should be
packed raw in the jar and
covered with hot berry juice.
All canned fruits and fruit
juices should be processed in
the boiling water bath canner
after they are packed in the

Jellies, jams, marmalades
and preserves can be made.
To have a quality product,
follow a recommended recipe
and be sure to cook in small
quantities. Perhaps your
greatest problems will be in
having the right proportion
of sugar, pectin and acid.
There are many ways to
serve fruit juices. You might
plan to can and freeze a sup
ply of this.
Fruit pickles and relishes
add zest to any meal. These
are also easy to prepare.
Plan to have a large assort
ment of quality home canned
and frozen fruits. Use quality
products and follow recom
mended research methods.
Your family will be the bene
ficiary throughout the year.

An unsolved question came
to mind as we passed Goober
Lodge a few days ago and
saw a lady skillfully backing
their recently acquired boat
and trailer while her husband,
who rates along with our
troopers as an expert driver,
looked on. Guess the car’s
j brakes were not too good and
I the man can’t swim. —cl

If you .merchants are not
doing credit business you had
better go the other way when
you see Mrs. Ruby Rachel
walk in. She even established
credit at a trade stamp re
demption store in Dothan
last week.
We understand though that
Ruby did not ask for the
stamp credit, but that the
clerk suggested it because she
looked like she had an honest
face.
We’re not going to try it,
’cause the clerek might not
consider a pie or moon shaped
face an honest one. —cl
