By MRS. ANN HANCOOK Extension Agent. Home Ec The Kosciusko county fair is less than a week away. The ex* tension homemakers are preparing the women’s building for the arrival of entries on Monday, Aug. 4. They are expecting over 1,300 entries in their open class departments. Mrs. Charles Smoker. Warsaw, general superintendent of the women’s building, has announced that there will be several changes in the departments this year. The clothing department categories have been completely revamped to bring them up to date with current trends and styles. The category especially for teenage entries in clothing has been eliminated since they can compete through the 4-H program. To enter in the baking and candy department, items need not be made from scratch. In fact there is one category especially for "cake mix variations.” This could include cookies, cakes, brownies, candies that are made from a cake mix with additional ingredients. This category allows the satisfaction of creative impulses. It’s a challenge to take a cake mix and create something better. Entries will be accepted at the women’s building on Monday, Aug. 4 from I a.m. to 2 pm. Departments in the women’s building include: Garden flowers, baking and candy, canning. clothing and needlework. The extension homemaker dubs participate in competition for educational booths.

Safe Canning, Freezing Stressed In 4-H CHICAGO— Making fruit preserves at home-even with today's higher sugar pricescan mean savings over commercially prepared preserves which may cost more than a dollar a pound, says Dr. Ruth Patrick of the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service. But, she adds, the safe and successful home canning of fruits and vegetables requires the use of recommended equipment, proper methods and tested recipes. Interest in canning and freezing has increased greatly due to high food costs and growing enthusiasm for gardening. As a result, more than 88,000 young people across the country are currently enrolled in the 4-H food preservation program sponsored by Kerr Glass Manufacturing Corporation and conducted by the Cooperative Extension Service. 4-H members from. 9 to 19 are “learning by doing” that the safe and economical preservation of foods at home is both a creative art and a science. Safe preservation Since improperly preserved foods mean wasted produce and lost time spent in preparation, plus the possibility of serious illness, 4-H’ers are encouraged to study and apply the basic scientific principles necessary for saje food handling and processing. Projects stress the use of seasonal produce-especially locally or home grown fruits and vegetables. The benefits are better nutrition, more variety in meals, and a wellstocked pantry and freezer at lower cost. For the 47th year, Kerr is providing awards for outstanding achievement in the 4-H food preservation program. The corporation offers six SBOO college scholarships 'to national winners, an ex-pense-paid trip to National 4-H Congress to each state’s winner, and up to four medals of honor per county. Winners are selected by the Extension Service with awards arranged and announced by the National 4-H Service Committee. Additional information on the 4-H food preservation program is available from county extension agents. A favorite recipe For the girls and boys in the 4-H program, food preservation activities provide hours of fun-and good eating! Here’s a recipe from Kerr that’s a favorite with 4-H’ers: PEAR HONEY 3 pounds ripe pears (9 cups) 1 cup crushed pineapple Grated rind and juice of 1' fresh lemon or lime (optional) 5 cups sugar Wash, pare and core the pears; slice before measuring. Put through a food chopper using the fine blade. Combine pears and pineapple. Add the lime or lemon rind and juice - (optionaH. Add sugar and cook over slow heat, stirring frequently. Cook for 20 minutes. Pour into sterilized jars to within % inch of top. Put on cap, screw band firmly tight. Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes. Yield: 8 half-pints or 4 pints.

Cool Fruity Treat Crowns A Meal

Cool to the taste: quick and easy to make - Three-Fruit Imperial adds an exciting treat to meals, whether served as salad, garnished with mayonnaise: or, as a dessert reward dressed with prepared whipped topping. Layers of apricot halves, pear halves and sliced bananas go a long way layered in Jell-O lime gelatin — the refreshing enhancer. Most likely canned fruits and fruit-flavor gelatin are among the basics in your cupboard, so it's a snap to prepare this versatile loaf mold anytime. Three-Fruit Imperial 1 can (16 oz.) apricot halves 2 cups boiling water 1 can (16 oz.) pear halves 2 bananas, sliced 2 packages (3 oz. each) lime flavor gelatin Drain apricots and pears, reserving IVi cups syrup. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Stir in measured syrup. Arrange apricot halves in a 9x5-inch loaf pan: add a layer of pear halves and top with sliced bananas. Pour gelatin over fruits. Chill at least 6 hours — or overnight. Unmold. Garnish, if desired, with prepared whipped topping and cherries to serve as dessert; or, garnish with mayonnaise to serve as salad. Makes about 8 cups or 10 servings.
