Page 2 The Summ said Summer program coordinator Teresa Miller. Over 25 kids between the ages of 6 - 11, some who have never been ona horse before, participated in the program, immensely en- joying the experience, she said. The horses were donated for use in the program by Clark Owens and John Hiller. ys ys ic? er Funshine Adventure program held an equestrian clinic all last week at the Cow Palace and it was a rousing success, The Gazette In the top picture, Joanne Mundie, with the dark hair and the dark pants, gives instruction to one student while Teresa Miller (foreground holding the horse) watches. In the bottom picture, Miller leads a student around the Cow Palace, helping her get used to the horse. A sure sign of summer - questions about food preservation. Here is a sampling of common queries to help you prepare for the coming season Q. Why did my whole canned cherries split their skins? A. During water bath canning, the cherry will expand and needs to release pressure. If the skin is thick, it will split to allow pressure to escape. To prevent this from happening, pit the cherry or prick the skin with a needle. Q. What causes garlic, onion and cauliflower to change colour after pickling? A. They contain colourless pigments that easily become coloured: in an acidic environment. When vinegar (acetic acid) is added, garlic may turn blue or purple and cauliflower and onions may turn pink. Garlic may turn green if it is not fully mature or Judy Shipley-Smith, Asst. Dist. Home Ec Box 250, Olds - Phone 556-4220 thoroughly dry. They are still safe to at, sin- ce this reflects a natural colour change rather than spoilage. Q. Why is it now recommended that citric acid be added to tomatoes before can- ning them? A. Recently, it has been found that some tomatoes may not be sufficiently acid for processing in a boiling water bath. Addition of a small amount of citric acid (available in drugstores) ensures that the tomatoes may be safely processed. Use 1 ml ( teaspoon) for 500 mil jars (pints) or 2 ml (4 teaspoon) for 1 L jars (quarts) dissolving in 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of boiling water before adding to tomatoes in jar. The addition of 5 ml (1 teaspon) sugar will im- prove the flavour. The booklet, Preservation Problem Solving Guide , has many an- swers to common preservation queries. For your copy or help with a preservation problem, call my office at 556-4220. Food A how to recover money In recent years a number of resear- ch rs or tracing com- panies have written to consumers, offering to help them recover their unclaimed bank balan- ces. These researchers charge a fee of up to 40 percent of the recovered amount. Though their services are not illegal, consumers should be aware that they can easily recover their own unclaimed balances without paying anything. Every year, banks are required to prepare a 5g list of the names and addresses of the holders of all accounts and in- struments worth more than 50 that have been inactive for nine years, This year s list is published in a. special supplement of the Canada Gazette, Part 1, June 27, 1987. After a bank account has been inactive for 10 years, the funds are transferred to the Bank of Canada, where they are kept in the name of the holder. The Bank of Canada is currently holding 56.6 million in unclaimed balances, in- cluding 8.7 million reported last year along. The annual Canada Gazette supplement that lists accounts inac- tive for nine years is available in all public libraries. Consumers whose names appear in this year s list may recover their funds from the appropriate bank branch. Although there is no fee for claiming a bank balan- ce, the bank may have levied administrative fees on the account previously. Lists of all unclaimed balances of any amount held by the Bank of Canada are maintained at Bank. of Canada headquarters and its agencies across the country. Consumers whose names appear in these lists may recover their funds, again without charge, from the Bank of Canada. Traditionally Christ- mas and New Year's are known for their high incidents of im- paired driving charges and alcohol related ac- cidents, but now that has changed. According to the Alberta Solicitor General, summer levels of impaired driving and accidents because of alcohol are above reasonable levels. That is why there is now a coordinated province wide Summer Check Stop campaign called The Heat is. On. The Solicitor General and the police forces in Alberta are blitzing during the summer months to. bring down the number of accidents Because of the blitzes during the holiday season in December, the Solicitor General reports rates for frequence of alcohol related accidents for that month are fewer than any time of the year. The department is hoping the summer program will have the success of the Christ- mas one and are looking for public sup- port in helping to reduce the number of accidents. The public is reminded to encourage friends, neighbours, co-workers or employees to con- sider their respon- sibility to the com- munity before they drink and drive. It is also stressed if you do drink and drive this summer, the chan- ces are, you will be caught and you will probably be convicted. If you are found guilty Wednesday, July 29, 1987 Check Stop heat on for summer of impaired driving or a related charge, you will receive a six month driving suspension and a minimum 8300 fine. If you cause bodily harm while impaired driving, you can get up to 10 years in jail or at the least, a 2,000 fine or six months in jail or both. If you cause death you can be sentenced up to claims lives, 25.9 per- cent of all fatal acciden- ts are alcohol related so the Solicitor General wants to remind the public to think before you drink and drive. With the Summer Check Stop program in place, the heat is on and chances are, you - will be caught. fertilizer report prepared Some 207 custom operators and dealers in Alberta have responded to a telephone survey of their rates for fertilizer application, ee Craig Edwards, farm management economist with Alberta Agriculture at Olds says the information collected by Maureen Whitlock of the statistics branch in co- operation with the farm business management branch, has been published in a report. The survey shows that surface or broadcast application of granular fertilizer with truck mount, pull type and floater implements by custom operators cost farmers from 2 to 3.50 per acre with 3 being most common. Rental rates varied from 50 cents to 3 per acre with 1 acre being most quoted. Day rates were 20 to 75 per day, most about 40. Rental charges per ton- ne were in the 4 to 10 range with 6 the most common. Under-the-surface cus- tom application with drills and air seeders cost from 5 to 8 per acre with most respon- ses at 6 to 7. Custom airplane broadcasting ranged from 3 to 5 an acre with most common rate at 3.50. Liquid fertilizer ap- plication charges were just a bit higher at 3.50 to 4 per acre most common. Airplane application was 3.35 to 5.50 depending on amount applied. Highest charges were for deep banding liquid at 8.50 per acre. Ren- tal rates for equipment were from 50 cents to 1:50 per acre. with most.at 1.50 per acre. Anhydrous ammonia application costs for renting equipment varied from 1.40 to 1.50 an acre (few responses) and from 30 to 80 per tonne with the highest costs including delivery. Dual banding of granular and anhydrous. was quoted at 7.50 to 8.50 per acre as a custom operator charge. Correction The July 22 edition of the Gazette incorrectly said Les Pederson was the district manager of the Social Services of- fice in Olds. The name should have read Les Anderson.
