chives are another choice in the

well as flavor and they’re a lot
easier to store than the flower

COLLECT WEEDS
AND FLOWERS FOR
DRY ARRANGEMENTS
Now is the time to collect
flowers and weeds for dry win
ter arrangements, says a Uni
versity of Maryland horticul
turist.
Since most of the plant parts
have not dried thoroughly, ex
plains Francis R. Gouin, it will
be necessary to finish drying
them before you put them in
arrangements.
Tie the base of a loose bundle
of plants together with a soft
string and hang upside down in
a cool, dry room away from
direct sunlight Make each bun
dle as small as possible so that
air can circulate freely and dry
the plants uniformly.
By hanging the plants upside
down you keep the flowers from
getting mashed together and
drying unevenly.
High temperatures will cause
discoloration of flowers and
leaves, and direct sunlight will
cause bleaching. Room tempera
tures should not go above 65
degrees F. while the plants are
drying. High humidity will slow
drying and encourage bacterial
and fungus growth.

casionally, until golden brown

EVERGREEN PRUNING FOR
HOLIDAY DECORATIONS
Trees and shrubs growing in
your own backyard can be used
for festive holiday decorations.
To keep the branches soft
and fresh for use in decorating,
Francis R. Gouin, University of
Maryland horticulturist advises
that you cut branches only
when you are ready to use them
After cutting, the branches
should be sprinkled with water
and covered with moistened
burlap.
Avoid damaging the appear
ance of the plant; do not make
heavy cuts. When pruning, cuts
should also be made above a
good strong branch slanting
the pruning shears away from
you on the plant stem to hide
the cut.
HOME CARE
OF POINSETTIA
Enjoy your poinsettia this
Christmas it won’t be around
foi you to enjoy next year.
To keep your poinsettia as
long as possible, Francis R.
Gouin, University of Maryland
horticulturist offers helpful
hints.
Since the poinsettia requires
large amounts of water, he sug
gests that you check the soil
daily. Water the plant until
water drips from the bottom of
the container.
When not in use for decora
tion, your poinsettia should be
placed in a well-lighted window
facing south or southwest where
the temperature is 70 to 75 de
grees.
I find it difficult, even im
possible, to sit and deliberately
think.

Choose Cheese For Economy Meals
Cheese is economical, nutritious, tasty, and makes an excel
lent mam dish
Cheeses are available in varied flavors
textures, and consistencies which makes them
suitable for use in desserts, appetizeis, mam
dishes, or snacks.
Cut off only as much cheese as you need
and store the rest in tightly wrapped paper or
a clean cloth.
Use cheese promptly before it dries out
You can grate dried out cheese and use in
many different ways.
If cheese molds, cut off the moldy por
tions and the rest is usable.
Fresh or soft cheeses, such as cottage or
cream, are best if eaten within a few days
Cook cheese slowly. Keep the heat low to
allow cheese to melt completely and spread

Tips On Freezing Wild
Game Kill
Good wrapping material and
proper preparation of game
helps it retain its natural fla
vor.
Packaging material should he
moisture-vapor-proof.
Heavy-duty aluminum foil is
a good choice of wrapping for
game.
Mold the foil closely around
the product after you have
dressed and cleaned the game.
Protect the foil from being
punctured by slipping the
wrapped meat into a plastic j
1 bag.
Well-wrapped game birds and
venison will keep satisfactorily
for six to nine months if stored
at Zero degrees or lower
Pennsylvania laws state that
game may be kept frozen until
July 1 of the year immediately
following the past hunting sea
son.
For You To Know
Let your clothes air when
ever possible to help revive
their shape. Check for pieces of
fluff between seams, in pockets,
and cuffs of winter clothes that
