Home canning
By PATRICI A M. RATHBUN Extension Home Economist If you were fortunate, you had a mother or grandmother who “put up” pickles and preserves And wasn't it a joy to have jars of spicy corn relish or tangy tomato jam on the shelf all year round? Don't think canning is a thing of the past Home canning is an activity that is increasing m popularity. There’s no trick to it. Home canning isn't difficult as long as you learn the rules and follow directions carefully. To be successful at canning, you need reliable instructions .. not from a neighbor over the back fence . . but from an authority on the subject. You must also read, understand, and follow instructions .All home canners should know something about microorganisms, including yeasts, enzymes, molds and bacteria, on the food, in water, air. and soil, as causes of food spoilage. Because of these organisms, it is important to heat foods hot enough and long enough to destroy spoilage organisms A deadly form of food poisoning, botulism, can occur when low-acid vegetables are canned improperly The spoilage organism is extremely resistant ti heat and it grows without oxygen in low-add canned foods. In order to destroy the spores that produce the deadly toxin, all low add foods must be canned in a pressure canner at 340 F for a spedfic length of time. High add foods, such as fruits, can be safely preserved by the hot water bath method at 212 F. Yeasts, mold and non-spore forming bacteria are readily controlled by this method. Hot water bath also stops the action of enzymes which cause foods to ripen.
To be a successful home canner. you need the proper equipment. Select standard canning jars made of tempered glass that can withstand high temperatures. One-trip jars from purchased canned foods should not be used because they generally are not tempered to withstand the high heat required for home canning and may break

when subjected to the heat. Tops of these jars may not fit standard canning lids thus preventing a good seal A water bath canner is needed for processing high-acid foods, such as" fruits, tomatoes, and pickles The container must be deep enough to allow water to cover the jars by at least 1-2 inches and 1-2 inches of space above the water to allow for boiling A steam pressure canner is absolutely essential in canning low-acid foods, and insures the destruction of spoilage organisms Ten pounds pressure is used for processing. This pressure corresponds to 240 F Canners with dial pressure guages should have the guages checked for accuracy before use Pressure canners with dial guages can be tested at the Extension Office on Wednesday, June 17 from 9 to 11 a m. Only the pressure canner lid is needed for testing There is a small charge for testing the guage. The last key to successful home canning is to follow reliable directions The Extension Office has a variety of publications on food preservation. It’s also a good place to direct your specific questions For more information of food preservation, contact the Extension Office The program will feature information on food preservation as well as open phone lines for your questions. If you have a question, feel free to call. Participate in Food Preservation Day by having your pressure canner guage tested.

Colleges now solicit by mail Colleges, and universities are joining the ranks of junk-mail solicitors to recruit their students. The schools have reportedly adopted the direct-mail hard-sell approach, because the number of 18-year-olds that can fill their campuses is on the decline. ’ Federal government statistics are predicting, in fact, the number of 18-year-olds nationwide will drop 18 per cent by 1985 and 25 per cent by 1991. The institutions reportedly pay the Student Search Service, a branch of the College Entrance Examination Board, 12 cents per student name, plus a SIOO entry fee for each computer search. The institutions then mail out promotional material to the students on their lists. The University of Miami, one of Student Search's largest customers, says by the time 2,000 students are enrolled this fall, recruiting will have cost the school $270 for each student.
