Agent Dries Many Products With
Surracs

Fruits and vegetables may be dried
in the home by simple processes
and stored for futa1Ee use. Especially
when canning is not feasible, OR cans
and jars are too expensive. Drying
offers means Of saving large guam
titles of surplus products which go
to waste each year in gardens and
orchards. Drying also affords way
of conserving portions of food which
are too small for canning. In Madi-
son parish, the home demonstration
agent, Miss Rebecca Whitaker, has
dried successfully 18 different Lou
isiana-grown fruits and vegetables,
and the exhibit Of these products in
her office at Tallulah is said to be
one Of the most complete ever as
sembled. It includes string beans,
wax beans, corn, peas, peaches peale.i
and unpealed, pears, apples, pinien.
toes, whole okra, cut okra, pumpkin,
sweet potatoes, spinach, celery and
lima beans. OF 80 public demon
strations given by Miss Whitaker in
1918, Is were in the brining, drying
and curing of vegetables. Through
Miss Whitaker's efforts, rs house
keepers put up 13, ,001 cans Of fruit
and vegetables, and brined III gal
Ions of vegetables Nine canning
club girls working under Miss
Whitaker's direction put up 825 cans
Of tomatoes, 500 cans Of other vege-
tables and fruits, 100 pounds Of dried
fruits and vegetables and IS gallons
of bfined vegetables.
