Mushrooms
Fresh mushrooms are mush
rooming in popularity.
Try them raw and they can be
baked, broiled, breaded, filled or
sauteed. Raw, fresh mushrooms
are prepared for serving the
same as mushrooms used in
cooked dishes. Rinse, use a co
lander or strainer and blot dry
with a paper towel. If stem ap
pears dry, slice a thin strip from
the tip.

“One myth is that kids today
are more likely to live in single
parent households than they
were maybe 100 years ago,”
Stanton said. “But in the early
1900 s, single-parent households
weren’t all that uncommon. It
was more due to the death of a
parent than to divorce, but there
were a lot of single-parent house
holds back then.”
Another myth is that three
generation families occupying
the same home in the style of
“The Waltons” was an advanta
geous lifestyle that previous
generations enjoyed.
“But there’s no evidence that
extended families were ever the
norm in America,” Stanton said.
Farmer Ingenuity
What can’t a farmer fix with
Coca-Cola and Bounce dryer
sheets? Here are some often-used
solutions from the U.S. Dept, of
Ag. Coca-Cola will:
• Clean stains from the milk
house toilet. Pour a can into the
toilet and let sit for one-hour,
then flush. It works better on por
celain, although we don’t know
that this has any application to
false teeth.
• Remove rust spots. Dip
crumpled-up aluminum foil in
Coke and scrub away the rust.
• Loosen stubborn bolts. Soak
a rag in Coke, apply to the bolt
for a few minutes.
• Help remove grease in
clothes. Pour a can onto the
greasy spots, put in the washer on
regular cycle.

Festival September 8-10 in Ken

Many of today’s myths about
the family can be traced to fami
ly life depicted on television
shows, Stanton said. “Our feel
ings about what the family
should be like is more based on
“Leave it to Beaver’ than on any
thing based in reality,” she said.
“It’s surprising how lasting those
images are.” That’s why she,
Nickol and King are conducting
the program at Farm Science Re
view. Accompanying the Tues
day morning program will be an
exhibit on the family that will be
on display for all three days of
the Review.
Tickets for the Farm Science
Review are available from coun
ty offices of Ohio State Universi
ty Extension and from local agri
businesses. Tickets are $4 in
advance and $6 at the gate. Chil
dren 5 and younger are admitted
free. Review hours are 8 a.m. to 5
p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday,
and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday.
Bounce dryer sheets will:
• Repel mosquitoes. Tuck one
in your belt loop. Fashion-con
scious farmers can choose a
brand of dryer sheet that’s color
coordinated with their farm
clothes.
• Freshen the air in farm
trucks. Put one beneath the seat
where nobody can see it, thus
avoiding potentially embarrass
ing questions from passengers.
• Collect dog and cat hair.
Static cling allows dryer sheets to
remove pet hair from your favor
ite seed company jacket.
• Deodorize boots. Put a dryer
sheet into each boot, leave over
night. It might not hurt to leave
the sheet in there when you put
your boots on the next morning,
too!
