Robbins offers these hunting safety tips: • Make sure firearms are in good working order, and barrels and chambers are fine of obstruc tions. Guns must be sighted in properly and have the proper sized ammunition. • Familiarize yourself with the hunting site, so that you will know what’s beyond your target “Walk through the hunting grounds be fore deer season starts,” Robbins says. “When you know the area, you can keep livestock and build ings out erf the line of fire.” • Make sure every member of the group wears a combined mini mum 0f250 square inches of hunt er orange on the head, chest and back. • Assume every firearm is loaded. “When you pick up a gun, the first thing you should do is check it for ammunition,” Rob- Independent Distributor TM NEW HIGH $l.OO-A-Day Herbs Melt Fat Awav Plus One Feel Great!

During this hunting season, there are many people who are looking forward to enjoying a delicious venison for months to come. Let’s review some basic tips to help make sure you have the tastiest and safest venison possible. A deer shot in an unsuspect ing moment is more tender and will be less “gamey” in flavor than a deer that is chased. Immediate and careful field dressing, immediate removal of all hair near exposed flesh, and prompt skinning are essential. When dressing a deer, be careful not to cut into the musk glands on the lower belly. Venison is a good choice for healthy eating. A three-ounce piece of venison steak provides only three grams of fat.

Both provide 85 to 95 milligrams of cholesterol per three-ounce serving. Cholesterol content per serving will diminish signifi cantly only if you happened to shoot an old, well-traveled deer. Venison is a delicacy that requires special treatment in the kitchen as well as in the field. Although game is handled much like the lean meat of its domestic counterparts, a few helpful hints can make the dif ference between a strong, “gamey” flavor and a delicious taste-tempting treat. Game animals lead active, vigorous lives that keep their muscles firm and their bodies relatively lean. This makes their meat tougher and drier than domestic meat and poultry. One way to tenderize game meat is to cut the long muscles fibers by pounding, scoring, or grind I Sectional Closeout I I Reg Ret $1689 95 | I CASH PRICE $599.95 I Take an additional $5O 00 Off With Coupon CLAIM YOUK BARGAIN SET OF 6 SOUP MUGS I 31 . 4 31 $5O Retail Value With Basset or Sena bedding purchase onh We Absolutely Have the Best Prices on Bedding SERTA MATTRESS & BOX SPRING 'lv il ( H. ; I-: ' - - - OUR CASH PRICE 3149.95 (Serta, 'I If’i [ RiR l ' ; < ■ OUR CASH PRICE $189.95 * <JiIL I N R' iR- ’ - ■ ■ OUR CASH PRICE $249.95 KINO R. ) lv ’ 11, <1 OURCASH PRICE $299.95 PRICES INCLUDE BOTH PIECES BIG SELECTION OF WOOD & METAL BUNK BEDS HUNDREDS OF OTHER ITEMS! 3019 Hempland Road, Lancaster 397-6241 /T/Ve are a five store chain not affiliated with any other stores. \ ( Stores in: LANCASTER • YORK • CARLISLE, PA > LANCASTER STORE HOURS: Mon.-Fri. 9-9 • Sat. 9-6 • Sun.

The tissues also may be softened by marinating with an acid such as lemon or tomato juice, French dressing, vinegar, or wine. A third method of ten derization is to cook the meat under pressurized heat. Game fat presents a special problem in cooking and storing. It turns rancid rapidly and should be trimmed closely before cooking and storing. Game fat also has a strong flavor and solidifies quickly more reasons to remove it. Basting the meat during cooking in its own juice or with a special marinade or sauce helps to keep the meat moist. - Never serve game rare or overcooked. Rare game is likely to harbor food-poisoning bacte ria. Overcooked game will be safe to eat, but it will probably be tough and dry. Most sources recommend cooking game slowly at low temperatures (300 to 350° Fahrenheit) to reduce shrinkage and retain food value and flavor. Cook roasts to an internal temperature of 170° Fahrenheit. Since all game has a dark sur face when roasted and may appear more done than it is, use a thermometer to determine internal temperature. For safe ty’s sake, serve all game dishes hot-above 140° Fahrenheit-, and keep them cold-below 40° Fahrenheit. Store leftover game in the refrigerator in a closed, air-tight container for use within two days. Freeze leftovers for longer storage. ,‘T\ CATNAPPER Lounger L - -” 5 Reg Ret $849 95 Refusal YOU PAY 5249.04 Under Wholesale Can’t Beat! 200 to Sell Won’t Last l
