Canning Peaches

The prospects for a larger than

sugar. This can be done if you
will follow the methods discussed
here, provided you use tree ripen
ed peaches if possible*
The allowance for canning is
1 lb. sugar for each 4 quarts of
fruit. This is a liberal allowance
of sugar, and is ideal under nor
mal conditions. Today, however,
with such a limited supply of
sugar, we can still can an ample
supply of good quality peaches if
we adopt a few sugar stretching
ideas.
Best resuluts have been obtained
when the peaches were ripe e-
nough for the skins to slip, or of
the ripeness desired if you were
eating them right from the tree.

It is best to work rapidly to
prevent discolor of peaches. In
the event, however, that you have!
to let them stand for a few min
utes in a salt-vinegar water —
using two tablespoons of each to
each gallon of water.
Method 1—Very Thin Sugar Syrup
Peel peaches, cut in quarters or
halves, and heat in thin hot syr
up—made with one cup sugar and
three cups water. Pack in jars,
cover with hot liquid and seal,
and process for fifteen minutes in
hot water bath.
Method 2—No Syrup—Sugar and
Juice of Peaches

ters or halves, and pack cold in
jars or cans. Add two tablespoons
of sugar to each quart. Set jars

for a record peach crop through

canning of an ample supply for
later use as well as maximum use
of fresh peaches in public eating
places and private homes.
“During the peak of peach pro

Crotalaria, Lespedeza
Darlington, June 16. — J. M.
Napier, Clemson extension-AAA
agent, calls the Attention of farm
ers to a recent ruling of the State
Agricultural Adjustment Agency
on payments for fertilizing crota
laria and lespedeza.
State AAA Administrator R. W.
Hamilton has announced that su
perphosphate, potash, or basic
slag applied to crotalaria or lespe
deza in wheat will qualify for
payment under the respective AAA
soil-building practices for the use
of these matrrials in 1945, pro
vided the application of the ma
terials was made after the crota
laria or lespedeza had reached a
stand.
This new provision, says Mr. Na
pier, should be of special interest to
farmers in the crotalaria areas of
the state.
