If you've just picked up your canning peaches at the market, go over them carefully. Don't can those with. bruises and blenishes. One 18-pound box or flat should yield 7 to 8 quarts of canned fruit. Work with small quantities at a time. This is especially import- ant in keeping the fruit from turn- ing dark, To make peeling easier, dip the peaches into boiling water for ,a ininute or two to loosen the skins. (A wire basket or cheesecIoth bag makes this easier.) Then dip the peaches immediately into cold water, cut in half, slip out the pit, and slip off the skins. / Drop qmcmy into a gallon of cold water containing two table- spoonfuls each of salt and vinegar. (That's also to help keep the peaches from turning dark.) Drain enough for one jar or can and put immediately into boiling hot sirup. Just heat through-- allowing enough room in the ket- tle so you can easily and careful- ly turn over the peach halves or Slices, The quick heating drives off air and helps prevent Vitamin A losses.

Begin counting time when the water has reached a roll- ing boil. Be sure, of. course, that the water comes at least one inch over the tops of the jars. Remove from the canner and cool, right side up in a ell-ventil: dt¢d place. Avoid drafts for glass Jr#. C0ol tins in cold water. , After jars are cool, inspect t/d test seal, label, and store. It's also a good idea to give jars a follow- up inspection within the month. Add Vitamin C If you want to spend 5 or 6 cents more per quart, you can make canned peaches a good source of Vitamin C as well as Vitamin A. 5ust add Vitamin C tablets while your canning'. The Vitamin 13 tablets will also help the centred fruit keep its fresh color. When canning with Vitamin C tablets, put them in the jar 0r can before the fruit and sirup are acked in, ant the fruit processed. e 2 tltblets of :tOO milligram for each quart jar--or 5 tgblets of the 50 milligram or I0 of the 25 milligram strength. There are three main reasons whY. canned peaches turn dark, thereby losing texture, flavor, and appetite appeal, Miss Eckblad says. Darkness tlroughout tle jar or can usually shows over pro- cessing or slow cooling. Darkness just on top shows lbb0r seal or under processing• Dark- ness in peaches during the canning process indicates either poor fruit or poor handling, Booth Sentenced Here Following Guilty Plea bert L, Booth; heiton; was sentenced to not more than 10 years at the state prison in Wal- la Walla in .Superior Court ses- sion August 28, Sentence was passed by Judge D.

The other ships there are in a care. taker status, and probably as stu- dies progress they will be used to test the various methods de- veloped for removing radiological contamination. The submarines Skipjack and Skate are being retained at Mare, :Island for special decohtamination studieS. The target vessels surviving from the second test were heav-' ily contaminated by the radioac- tive materials contained in the spray which was deposited on them. Until these radioactive mater- ials are removed by means of decontamination methods, the ships will be unsafe for perm- anent 'occupancy, but personnel can work on board them and stay for a limited period provided cer- tain special safety precautions promulgated by the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery arc follow- ed. These same precautions will be followed also at the various shipyards where the ships will be studied by the navy• The study and development of effective means of radiological de- contamination is one of the most important projects being under- taken by the navy in its program of preparation against atomic warfare. The work is being done by the navy* department in co- operation with the Atomic Energy Commission, The Bureau of Ships has es- tablished a Radiation Laboratory at the San Francisco Naval Ship- yard to prosecute the research and development phases of the program, and close liasion i maintained with the Radiation Laboratory of the University of California which has been engag- ed in similar work for the Man- hattan district and for the eom- /lliss Joll.
