Watson says, including his larger

He also likes antiques and has

AFaRLD
By Ted Kaffse

One hundred pounds Of potatoes.
~dehydrated. weighs II pounds. The
same process will reduce a hundred.
weight of apples to 10 pounds; Of
carrots, to eight pounds; of onions
to seven pounds. This, says outdoor
writer Robert NJ. Ormes, is good
news to campers who must carry
large quantities of supplies.
Sonic dehydrated vegetables have
been available for several years,
but their variety and quality has
increased so much that they are
well worth the campers attention.
In addition to the vegetables just
mentioned there are others, includ-
ing beets, sweet potatoes, hominy,
turnips and pre-cooked beans.
Well-processed products can be
recognized by a porous texture
which permits them to absorb
water readily. Those improperly
drind are likely to be "caseharden-
ed"-covered with a tough skin-like
layer.
Dehydration, like freezing. keeps
the activities of yeast, molds, and
bacteria at a standstill. When water
is added, to bring about reconstitu-
ton of the vegetable. these same
forces are again at work to produce
souring and spoilage.
Dry foods in dry containers will
keep almost indefinitely; once
moistened they become more perish
able than in their original fresh
state. For this reason they should
not be soaked overnight or wet
down ahead of time.
Reconstruction is actually part of
the cooking process. The vegetable
is soaked for 20 minutes in cool
or lukewarm water and then slowly
brought to the simmering point. 1t
is kept simmering-not boiling-un-
til firm and tender. 1t should not be
removed from the water still rub
berry even if it is to be fried or
baked afterward.
Be sure to follow directions for
the amount of water to be used,
There must be a sufficient amount
to provide for absorption and to
prevent scorching. But don't use toe
much water -. it steals impor-
tant values from the food. You can
save these nutrients by using the
leftover water in soups, sauces or
gravy.

Likes Flying
W. L. Upchurch, Star theater
manager. has had a hobby of flying
since 1888, and an ambition to fly
since the time of his first airplane
ride as a youngster. He began IN
1888 flying on his w while pay
ing for the time, and put In about
so hours until time of entrance In
to the service. He went into Cadets
in MAY, l943, and was disqualified
for physical reasons but continued
his flying at Laredo, Texas as fly
ing instructor. He put in about 600
hours on B-24s before separation
from the service. Last May. he be-
came a G.. I. school ~enrollee to finish
his FLYING time. which was complet-
ed recently. He is now up for com
mercial flyers license.
Is nudto ktoha
In line with his vocation as radio
technician and repairman, as wei
as instructor in radio at Holmes
Junior college, and in automotive
mechanics at Lamar Hays Training
school, c. F. Moore of Lexington
route |, is an amateur radio opera
tor. Since the first of the year when
he became a ham operator, Mr..
Moore, who seldom usese code. has
talked by voice to New Zealand
Australia, Hawaii, Guam, the Hon.
duras, Porto Rico. the Canal Zone
Alaska. all parts of Canada and the
United States, and to the European
countries Of England, France, Italy,
Holland, and Wales. He says he IN
tends to plug" a telephone line IN
to his neutrality-suspicious. equip
ment, in order that calls can be
facilitated. He has contacted per-
sons overseas and in other distant
places relatives of local people, en-
abling 'free" conversation OF from
several minutes to two hours.
He likes to talk about his hobby,
the root of which is his dread and
butter" according to Mr.. Moore, and
he does not think it a nuisance II
people come out to "try to get a line
drought" He has been in the radio
business for % years, but has been
on his own since December, l945'
He picked up" his knowledge, add
ing to it through experience and
effort and until this spring main
tanned two radio shops. His Lex
ington shop was moved to Durant'
where the other was located.
Is Good, cleun Hobby
The ham operator also likes fish
ing and hunting as a hobby, and
says he has so many dogs he is
practically dog pore" Gle has a
bird dog and three chows.C
Speaking again of his amateur
radio operation, Mr.. Moore says it
is a good clean hobby. and is edu-
cational, and causes you to meet a
