Bananas are at the ideal stage fol
eating fresh out of hand when the
peel is golden yellow flecked with
brown indicate that the flesh inside
is mellow and fully sweet. Though
bananas are usually sold in stores
before they reach this stage OF ripe
ness, those in good condition may
easily be ripened in the home kitch-
en-.
Bananas may be left in an open
bowl to ripen, but probably better
way is to leave them in the bag in
which they were purchased, and put
a moistened wad of absorbent paper
in with them to keep the atmosphere
Just humid enough to keep the fruit
from drying. Banana experts say
that the fruit usually ripens best in
a closed but not alright container,
The gases given off in ripening, il
confined around the fruit, hasten
ripening.
The bag of bananas should be kept
at room temperature-about 70 de.

Woiting After Boxing
Many cook who is careful about
the cooking and serving of green
vegetables is casual about the baking
Of potatoes. Potatoes generally as a
comfortable vegetable which can go
in and come out of the oven at the
cooks convenience.
Careful timing of the baking fol-
lowed by prompt serving is import
ant for saving one of the valuable
offerings of this vegetable-Vitamin
c. Tests show that overbaking results
in considerable loss Of the vitamin.
Potatoes that stood in the kitchen
for half an hour after baking lost 33
percent Of their vitamin c. Those
that stood an hour lost so percent,
and those that stood 4 hours lost 100
percent-or all of the vitamin.
Squeeze For Sweater
A gentle squeeze is better than
the usual twist of the wrist for re-
moving water from a sweater or
other knitted garment after washing,
The twisting and stretching Of wiring
ing may pull the wet wool SO far out
of shape that the sweater may never
regain its original size. The special
lists advise gathering the sweater in
a ball between the two hands and
gently squeezing or pressing the
water from it. Then, If the color is
fast, it may be rolled up in a bath
towel for an hour or two. The towel
will absorb moisture. Finally, lay
the sweater flat and shaped to its
correct size to dry.

light enough in weight to be COM

Mr.. Thompson made the following
recommendations to be followed
when building a pasture:
|. Take soil sample using the
technique recommended by the
soils laboratory which is to take
sample within the top six inches of
soil. About one pound of soil is a
sufficient amount to be mailed to
the laboratory for analysis.
2. The Interpretation of the an
alysis report sent out by the soils
laboratory was discussed by Mr..
, Thompson. He stated that the rec
concentrations should be adhered
to by the farmer. He went on to say
that if in the same field the hill por-
ton showed a need for two tons OF
lime per acre and bottom land in
the same field showed need for
one ton, there would be no objection
to putting two tons over the entire
acreage; that on most farms it would
not be practical to try to vary the
amounts for the same field.
3. The method of distributing
minerals was demonstrated. Any
equipment that will give an even
distribution over the soil is salts
factory.
4. It was recommended that the
soil be plowed to a depth of to 6
inches and thoroughly disked. A
cultapacker should be run over this
seed bed, or, if cultapacker is not
available, the farmer should wait
for a rain to firm his soil before seed
are planted.
S. Seed may be distributed with
any equipment that will give an
even distribution. The cyclone seed
er is inexpensive and has been used
in Holmes County by most farmers
putting out pasture seed.
6. Pasture management was dis
cussed by Mr.. Thompson. Control
grazing was named as the most i'm
portant phase Of pasture manage
ment. He went on to say that many
pastures in this area never did reach
a very high percent of efficiency
simply because too many cattle per
acre are permitted to Craze them. He
stressed secondly, the importance OF
using the moving machine. A pas
ture needs to be clipped two or three
times per season in order to give the
best results and thirdly, he stressed
the Importance of placing minerals
in the soils where pastures are to
be built. These minerals must be
disked or plowed into the soil so the
plants can get them even in dry
weather, if you want to build good
pasture. Soils on which minerals are
placed and not plowed in, may give
fair results during wet season, or
