Ascorbic Acid Stops
Browning of Peaches
By Jonet Cameron
Viairnia Extension Nunitionist

just a pinch of ascorbic acid will
make a homemaker happy if she's
troubled by the darkening of frozer
peaches.
Recent experiments show that
powdered ascorbic acid used at the
rate of one teaspoon to each quart
of chilled sirup will prevent brown
ing of peaches, in addition to max
ing the fruit a good source of Wit
amin C. Citric acid crystals will
also prevent browning. if the sliced
peaches are dipped into solution
of Il teaspoon crystals to one quart
of water, for about one minute be-
fore packaging.
Hale Haven. Elberta, Georgia
Bells, Early yellow and Golden
Jubilee are varieties best suited for
freezing. Select peaches for freez-
ing that would be prime for eating
mellow but firm, uniformly ripe with
no green in sight.
For canned peaches use either the
hot or cold pack method. For either,
make syrup of one cup sugar to
one and one-half cups of water. For
the hot pack. boil the sirup for five
minutes. then add the peaches and
heat them through (about five
minutes). Pack the hot peaches
into clean, hot jars; cover with the
sirup, and seal. Process 20 minutes
for both pints and quarts.
Cold-pack peaches are skinned
packed directly into jars and the
sirup added. Process IS minutes
for quarts and Is minutes for pints.

Additional Pasture
Conserves Supply
Of Hay, Grain

Farmers, facing decreased corn
production this year, should plan
supplemental pastures to reduce re-
quirements for hay and grain, ac-
cording to P. H. DeHart, Virginia
Extension agronomist.
Mr.. DeHart gave the following
suggestions for pastures for grazing
during the fall and winter months
I'm areas with enough rainfall
disc lespedeza sods or lespedeza
orchard grass sods lightly, and seed
to a mixture of two to three bushels
Of small grains and Is pounds of rye
grass per acre during August or
September.
Where crimson clover is adapted
Is pounds of crimson clover, Is
pounds of rye grass and one bushel
of small grain per acre will give good
results. In drought areas seed i'm
mediately after a good rain any
time before October Is. Fertilize
these crops with at least 600 pounds
per acre of 3-12-6 or 4-12-4 al
seeding.
THE same mixtures may be used
after silage corn is harvested or fol-
lowing supplemental pastures o1
soybeans and sudan grass or sudan
grass alone.
Seed an adapted variety of win
ter oats and fertilize with at least
600 pounds per acre of 3-12-6 or q

the average date of the first killing
frost. Local county agents have lists
of adapted varieties available.

Farm Population
Continues to Rise

Families are returning to the
farms, according to estimates re-
leased by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics.
The farm population in the United
States increased in 1946 for the
second successive year and reached
a total of 27,550,000 by last January
The number of persons living on
farms last January was 1850, 900
higher than two years earlier, but
was less than half of the wartime
decline in farm population.
The greatest source of farm popu-
lation increase was the return of
servicemen, the bureau said. Other
factors assisting in the gain were
high birth rate and favorable
balance OF civilian migration.

Amateurs Revive
Older Processes
For Print Control $

Photographic control processes,
which fell by the wayside during
the period when speed was the by
word in every darkroom, are coming
back among the amateurs. Each
year more and more prints made
by the older methods are showing
up in the salons and contests.
While it is true that control proc
esses such as carbro, carbon, fresson,
gum, bromoil and bromoil transfer
require great deal of patience from
the print maker, they are we'll worth
consideration by the photographer
who is serious enough about his
work to want it to be outstanding
and distinctly individual.
Control printing is boon to those
who are not entirely satisfied with
the results obtained through the
purely mechanical recording of a
scene on film. Through proper con-
troll, objects can be removed from
a scene and the introduction of ad-
ditional matter Is limited only by
the skill and Imagination of the
individual.
For instance, an Objectionable tel
ephone pole or fence can be elm
mated in the finished work and
a salon print produced from an 9TH
erwise faulty composition. Clouds
may be added where an otherwise
excellent negative is spoiled by a
bald sky, and other possibilities are
unlimited.

The best regulated darkroom will
run out of paper developer on oc-
casion. This usually happens on the
week end or at night when it is
impossible to obtain fresh supplies
If it happens to you, try improvis-
ing with some of your film de-
veloper.
Although there is definite dis
advantage of slowness in film de-
velopers-especially among the flne
grain group-satisfactory results can
be obtained with care and patience
In using fine grain developer
such as DK-20, normally exposed
print will develop in about five min
utes at 10 degrees with a slightly
warm tone. To avoid the possibility
of chemical fog, an addition OF po-
tassium bromide is advised. 1t also
must be remembered that a print
developed in a slow solution Will
suffer from light fog If the ordinary
safe light is used. This may be
