Revolution In Freezing
Lima Beans

Fresh home frozen lima beans
are popular with everybody except
the housewife who has to shell
them.
But home economists in North
Dakota have come up with a re-
evolutionary way of Smelling them
in less time, reports the Delaware
Agricultural Extension Service.
If the pods are softened by pre-
heating in boiling water, the beans
may simply be squeezed out of the
pod, washed, sorted and packed for
freezer storage. Beans prepared
this way may be kept as long as
those blanched in other ways, say
the North Dakota specialists.
Here are the steps:
1. Wash the pods in cold water.
2. Scald in boiling water, small
beans 21a minutes; large beans, 3
! to 4 minutes.
3. Cool in ice water. then
squeeze the beans out of the pods
4. Sort out Over-ripe or i'm
perfect beans.
5. Wash beans in cold running
water, drain, then package.
Beans fixed this way are not
only much easier, but score high
in both color and flavor compared
to those that are blanched after
Smelling.

Food for Thought
Mary r. Davenport
Nutrition COnsultant
Delaware State Board Of Health
STILL GAINING

Last week this column gave a
boost to the thought Of adding a
few pounds in summertime if ones
present weight is below normal.
The first point under discussion
was whether or not the under
weight person ate enough food. We
do have some bird-like appetites
that need encouragement with more
foods high in thiamine. Your doc
tor may recommend thiamine in a
concentrated form to improve an
appetite. More attractive meals
may be the answer. Allowing more
time for eating could produce the
difference between skimping and
adequacy. If it's a problem of in
sufficient food due to costs, this
should be corrected by an appeal
to the proper agency. Delaware
Welfare agencies hove done a COM
menda5le job in granting food mo-
ney where necessary.
Then another side to the correc-
ton Of underWeight is the proper
distribution of food nutrients. This
was discussed in part in last weeks
column, which stated that we have
many people who eat protein foods
to the exclusion of carbohydrates
and fats. We are the first to stress
large amounts of protein but not
to ignore the other calorie produc-
ing foods of lower cost and in the
absence of which, prOteins must
provide the energy normally sup
piled by these. For some time the
poor CalOrie had been tossed
around, misinterpreted and gen
orally lived in disrepute by the
chocolate nut sUndae eater. In
the past few years it has been es-
tablishing itself in it's rightful
place whether it's called a calOrie
or food energy"
The person who selects the fam
ily's food should know the calorie
requirements of the individuals and
should provide foods to meet this
need.
The next item questioned whe-
Their or not the Underweight person
had sufficient rest and sleep. Sleep
can be measured by the clock but
there are times when sleep does
not leave the person we'll rested.
Then the Underweight person can
use extra rest periods during the
day. These may be as definite rest
sessions plus a bit of slowing down
all day long. We have the state
Milford chronicle. [volume] (Milford, Del.) 1878-1974, 1951-08-17

ment from several people that they
get as much or more work done at
moderate speeds as they did when
their pace was much faster.
Then enough food of the proper
kinds, eaten with pleasure, and in
no hurry can help you add the few
pounds in the leisurely summer
hours.
Next week this column will con-
tinue with the more serious as
poets of underweight where your
doctor should take over.

Best For Baking

Fatty fish, such as salmon or
shad, are best for baking, broiling
and planking because their fat con-
tent will keep them from drying out
during the cooking procedure.

A recent biography: big
Hugh, Father of Soil Conserv-
ation," written by Wellington
Brink of Washington, ID. c.,
points out that Bennett and his
advisors. were first to develop
the idea of using and treating
land according to its natural cap
abilities.
Hugh H. Bennett and his
technicians, Brink points out,
were also first to define the eight
land use capability classes.
And as he faces the future, an

young for moth balls, Bennett
carries with him the knowledge
that the principles for which he
has fought nearly so years, now
guide the soil conservation acti-
vities of the entire USDA.

NOBLE SOIL
CONSERVATION NEWS

Although he has reached the
age of retirement, DR.. Hugh H.
Bennett will not yet leave active
duty as Chief of the U. S. Soil
Conservation Service, according
to word just received here by H.
Granville Smith, local Soil Con-
servation Service farm planner.
Secretary Charles F. Brannan has
announced the extension of DR..
Benefits appointment for an
unspecified period.
Thousand of farmers through
out Ohio know Hugh H. Bennett
personally and many of them
have welcomed him to their din
ner tables. Particularly is this
true of cooperators in soil con-
servation districts and among
farmers who form the district
governing bodies.
Farmers themselves are
largely responsible for the ex-
tension of DR.. BENEFITS retire
ment time" H. r. Blackburn,
chairman of the board of super
visors of the Noble Soil Conser-
vation District said. "Word got
around last winter that he would
reach the age of 70 on April Is.
Under government regulation, he
would have retired the last of
April.
However, farmers in his
home State of North Carolina
decided a man like DIR. Bennett,
who probably knows more about
soil conservation than anyone
else in the world, was too young
to go into moth balls with the
government. That's considerably
younger than General Marshall
DR.. Albert Einstein, or General
Douglass Macarthur, and they
all seem to be pretty useful yet.
$50 last January our soil con-
Servation district supervisors in
North Carolina passed a resolut-
ion at their State meeting asking
that the Chiefs retirement time
be extended. That started the
ball rolling"
This unusual executive action
by President Truman is a new
milestone in the career of a man
who is recognized by many as
the father of modern soil con-
servation. But another and more
significant recognition has come
to Doc" Bennett in connection
with the recent unification of
soil conservation functions with
in the Department of Agricull-
ture.
Only a few weeks ago, Secret
ary Charles F. Brannan an
nounced a new order which
would provide "one-stop service"
for farmers with soil conser-
vation Service and the Produc-
ton and Marketing Admins
tration should move their county
personnel into joint offices.
The unification order aroused
much public speculation as to

I off-farm income of this family
was used in the following man
ner: 279o for family living, 53%6
for farm operating and 20%o for
payment of debts, including real

! Following is an outline of

borrowers of Guernsey and
Noble counties feel would help
make each farm business a sound
| business:
Land - Use every acre to the
best advantage, according to its
capability. Put your Soil Con-
servation plan into operation as
rapidly as possible. Purchase
feed by applying fertilizer.
Buildings - Keep buildings in
repair and use every building in
such way as to increase your
net income.
Livestock Fit type and
quantity of livestock to feed sup
ply and building facilities. Keep
sufficient production records to
permit strict culling of individ-
uals. Refuse to spend time, feed
and space on individual animals
which will not pay you well for
your efforts. Feed livestock
balanced ration in the amount
which will yield the most net
income.
Family living - Making maxi
mum use of home produced food,
to reduce cash expenditures.
Take part in community activit-
les. If there are none, start some.

VINO was taxing over VINO.
Clarence w. Mcknight, district
conservationist for SCS at Mari
eta, Ohio, has pointed out that
neither agency loses its program
or its right to administer it. In
stead, PIMA, SCS and the Forest
Service have been directed to
work together more closely and
more effectively in giving better
help to the farmer.
Working with the Noble Soil
Conservation District governing
body and the county PIMA COM
mittee, SCS technicians will help
develop a well coordinated soil
conservation program with no
agency working at cross pur-
poses. And these technicians will
be responsible for the technical
standards of all permanent pract-
ices applied by farmers receiving
incentive payments from PIMA.
These are details of the pro-
gram from the county stand
point" Mr.. Mcknight said. But
from the personal standpoint of
Hugh H. Bennett, one of the most
significant phases is found in the
first objective listed under Bran

On March 80, the Caldwell

music festival was held for Noble
county under the able direction
of Ruth Day, Esther Kegg and
James Carter. The program last
ed about an hour and forty-five
minutes, starting at 800 p m.
This festival was a combined
force of all the Noble county
schools music students. The pro-
gram was divided into two parts:
selections by the orchestra and
special numbers including group
singing. These two parts were
arranged in such a manner that
there wasn't too much of any
particular thing at one time. s.

festival l took notes, so let's go
down through them and see what

pretty, all the girls wearing
formals, boys, suits. l was told
by one of the directors that there

included absentees. 1t was very
orderly entering and arranging
for 100 pieces, also in tune. l
mentioned in the notes that l
didn't think that it would get
started at 800 but l was wrong.
1t commenced exactly on time
The program was so arranged
that there would be three orches-
irrational pieces, one usually
being a march, and then solo,
duet or chorus number.
After the first five numbers,
there was an intermiSSion. Dur
ing this intermiSSion, went back
stage to get some information,
and by some way which still
isn't clear l ended up pulling the
curtain for the next number.

program continued with a solo,

the final numbers given by the
girls and boys combined into a
