SPECIALIST GIVES
DIRECTIONS FOR
CANDfED FRUITS

Miss Lillian Clark, University
specialist, who is in the valley
conducting a series of demonstra-
tions on home made evaporators,
has kindly given the following
formula to Imperial Valley Press
readers for making candied fruit.
As the directions are so ex-
plicit, housewives win find it
advantageous to clip this out
and save for future reference,
even if they are not prepared to
try il at this present time.
Candied Fruit
Punctllring, Peeling and Cut
ting-Small crab apples, apricots,
plums, cherries, and ripe but firm
figs are used whole after pune
turing in numerous places with
a wooden toothpick. Peaches
and pears are peeled and cut in
half, if large in quarters. The
peels of citrus fruits cut in quar-
tiers or eighths are used without
the pulp. Peeled and cut fruits
do not require puncturing.
Cooking Until Tendr-After
preparing as above, the fruit is
cooked gently in clear water,
from three to Is minutes. Hard
fruits require longer. Citrus
peels may require 80 minutes or
longer. Too much cooking will
spoil the shape and texture. Too
little will result in slow penetra-
tion of the sugar, dark color and
toughness.
Placing in Syrup-Make a sy-
rup Of one cup of Karo to three
cups water. Place the prepared
fruit in this syrup and boil
gently until fruit is thoroughly
heated through 1.-TWO to four
minutes) then place in an earth
enware pot while still hot. Keep
submerged in syrup. Karo is
used for this syrup as it prevents
hardening Of the finished pro-
duct by crystalization and makes
it more transparent.
Increase Of Sugar in Syrup
After "a hours drain off syrup
and from every cup of syrup add
from one-half to thirds cup
of sugar. Stir well and bring to
boiling, then place fruit in syrup
and boil gently until heated
through 1.-TWO to four minutes).
Repeat this part Of the process
at intervals of "a hours until
syrup is as thick as honey.
Drying-Leave in the last
thick syrup until it has penetrat-
ed the fruit (three or four days.
drain from the syrup and then
place on the home evaporation
trays. Dry at 100 to 100 de-
grees Fahrenheit until the fruit
ceases to be sticky. The drying
need not be continuous.
Packing-The finished fruit
may be packed in candy or card
board boxes lined with paraffin
paper or in jars covered with
cheese cloth. In alright con
tanners they may mold; some
ventilation is necessary.

Dame Fashion
Declares
That

The number of coats and dress
es which tie on one side is notice
able today. The coats, usually of
the short variety are at their
newest and best when flashing
bow of the grosgrair ribbon
favors them on the hips. Dresses
tie with cords, soft sashes, and
stiff bows, the color Of which is
often not related to that OF the
frock. ..-
The Spanish and the early eras
are mingled in the latest type of
evening gowns at present. AS
usual with gowrs of the present
youthful figure is needed for the
wearing Of this type. The bodice
is straight and snug and slides
off the shoulders in Victorian
fashion. The skirt is of the
wide, Spanish type.
The shade known as mushroom
is fast becoming a favorite TO-
day. It lerds itself especially
well to combinations with dark
brown and gold. Consequently
a mushroom gown often is trim
med with gold embroidery OF
with brown fur or both.

Society, Clubs Of Imperial Valley
Mrs. UrQuhart Looms as
,NeIc State President

Many of the clubs in and around
Los Angeles are endorsing Mrs. John
G. Urquhart for state president and
it looks now like she will go in
without opposition. The southern
part of the state claims the honor
this year, the last two presidents
having been from the north, and so
fan, no one from the upper part of
the state has been mentioned SER
iously for the position.
Mrs. Urquhart, unlike the prophet,
is popular in her own country and
her leadership has been tested as
she has led the great Los Angeles
district during the past two years.
She is a skilled parliamentarian,
broadly educated, and level headed,
all requisites for club leadership of
today.
The unframed woman finds her
self in deep water if she undertakes
TO preside at county, district or
state federation, and these organi-
cations are more and more demand
ing of their leaders training that
can only come with experience in
minor offices. A club president, es-
recially in the higher places, must
be quick, logical thinker, and
have poise as well as commanding
presence. Mrs. Urquhart seems to
have all of these 10 marked de-
gree, and the clubs of Southern Cal
ifcrnia feel that they are putting
forth a candidate who will honor
the position and be credit to them
ut all times. Imperial Valley clubs
have taken no action in the matter
as yet but doubtless will do so be-
fore the state convention meets in
Nay.
