' Weeping Water, quota $250, Crisp Apples Can Be Frozen For Desserts Crisp, firm, well-flavored ap ples can be frozen for quick use in pies and desserts if they are handled carefully, says Ethel Diedrichsen, extension food and nutrition specialist at the Uni versity of Nebraska. " The department of agriculture has experimented with possible ways of retaining the cut ap ple's fresh color, texture, and flavor through the freezing process. The following proce dures have been found most successful: . To freeze apple slices for fruit cocktail or uncooked desserts: Prepare a medium-heavy syrup by dissolving sugar in water in the proportions of three cups sugar to four cups water. To each quart of syrup add tea spoon of ascorbic acid (vitamin C). This anti-darkening aid for fruit freezing is sold in powdered or crystalline form in many drug stores. Starting with Vn cup syrup in each freezer container, slice peeled and cored apples direct ly" into the cold syrup. Press slices down and add enough syrup to cover. Leave space at top to allow for food expanding in freezing: y2 inch space in Pint containers; one inch in quarts. Seal and freeze. To freeze apple slices, with or without sweetening, for pie or other cooked dishes: Slice peeled and cored apples into water con taining two tablespoons salt per gallon, to prevent , darkening. Drain. Place apple slices in a single layer in a steamer and steam IV2 to two minutes, de pending on thickness of , slices. Cool in cold water and drain. For a sweetened pack, sprinkle Vz cup sugar ovefr each quart (IV4 pounds) of cut fruit and stir. Sweetened or unsweetened, pack the slices into freezer con tainers and press down, leaving 2 inch space at top. Seal and freeze. To-can apple slices: Packing raw gives better flavor and tex ture than pre-heating the slices and packing them hot. For a raw pack, slice peeled and cored apples into water containing two tablespoons each of salt and vinegar per gallon. Drain. Pack the raw slices in home-canning jars to Vz inch of top. Cover' with boiling sugar syrup, made THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL Monday, November 1, 1954. PAGE FIVE in proportion f one cup of sugar to three cups of w?ater. Leave Yz inch space at top of jar. Ad just jar lids and process either pints or quarts 15 minutes in a water bath canner. The hot pack has" this advan tage, if storage space is limited: I About 50 per cent more apple slices may be canned in each jar. To pack hot: After the slices are drained from the salt and vinegar solution, boil the fruit in thin syrup or water for 5 minutes. Then pack and proc ess in the canner like raw slices GLAD FOR ARREST OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA. For one time in his life, Alvie Waltham was glad to be arrest ed.

FOOD OUTLOOK The outlook for good eating this coming winter is excellent as of now, with prices of most fundamentals down at the farm level to about where they were before the start of the Ko rean war. Large surpluses of many of the primary foodstuffs tend to keep prices stable. FEDERAL DEFICIT The Government deficit will be at least $1,700,000,000 greater at the end of the current fiscal year than during the first year of the Eisenhower Administra tion, according to an estimate by Federal Budget Director Row land R. Hughes. Hughes said the deficit will jump because the Government has a lower income and higher expenses than an- ticipated. SYNTHETIC RUBBER I The government has been making about $50,000,000 a year turning out synthetic rubber for automobile tires, acording to a recent report. The govern ment will soon be selling the business to private industry, however, where the Eisenhower Administration says it belongs. FUSSELMAN FUNERAL HOME AMBULANCE MONUMENTS;!
