Peaches and Prunes in Good Supply For Ottawa Shoppers
Fresh prunes from the northwest and peaches from Colorado are plentiful in Ottawa. The prune crop in Idaho, Washington and Oregon totals over 108000 tons, 61 percent above 1954 and 2 percent above average. Home canning tips note one bushel of peaches yields 15-20 quarts or 35-40 pints of frozen peaches, while half bushel of prunes yields 12-15 quarts canned or 19-23 pints frozen. Adding ascorbic acid improves freezing quality. A recipe for Italian Prune Conserve by Mary Jane Gerken and Corie Cia Foote uses fresh prunes, lemon juice and rind, seedless raisins, sugar, walnuts.
