Foods To Mail
With Confidence
COLLEGE STATION— Cook-
ies and cakes which are long-
lived and can stand a few knocks
can be mailed with confidence,
regardless of distance, says Eliz-
abeth Barnard, foods and nu-
trition specialist.
Soft drop cookies, chewy bar
cookies, squared and filled cook-
ies travel well, according to the
specialist with the Texas Agri-
cultural Extension Service.
Applesauce, molasses, oatmeal
and mincemeat cookies are good
packers. Cookies flavored with
honey and fruit improve with
age.
If cookies are too rich, they
may crumble or turn rancid,
warns Miss Barnard.
Cakes are difficult to ship
successfully because they dry
and break. Syrups substituted
for part of the sugar help to pre-
vent rapid drying. Fruit cakes
and those made with applesauce
remain moist for some time.
The Extension specialist rec-
ommends sending cup cakes
baked in fluted paper cups. Or,
she says, cut a square cake and
frost pieces on aljl sides, wrap-
ping each piece individually.
To send pie, Miss Barnard
suggests tarts or individual pies.
They pack better.
Adding all-bran to the pastry
dough helps prevent the crust
from breaking up, she says. Firm
fillings are less apt to soak
through the crust. Miss Barnard
recommends mincemeat and fruit
thickened with cornstarch. Cus-
tard fillings spoil too rapidly to
be safe.
The Extension foods special-
ist says products of these two
recipes travel well.

Vincent And Thomas
Attend Cen*Tex TB
Board Meeting Sat.
G. Gordon Beck, Dallas, com-
mended Central Texas Tubercu-
losis and Respiratory Disease
Association for strides made in
area organization at its board
meeting Saturday in Waco. The
speaker noted that Central Tex-
as marked the completion of ten
of the thirteen Texas areas and
explained that by April 1, 1969,
all areas would be in operation.
Board members attending
from Teague were Walter Vin-
cent and P. F. Thomas.
The decision to portion the
state into areas followed a pro-
longed study made by a commit-
tee of the State Tuberculosis As-
sociation, Beck said. Erasing
county lines and forming larger
units allows a systematic pro-
gram of TB Control] to be effect-
ed, especially in counties having
few services available prior to
organization.
The Central Texas Tubercu-
losis and Respiratory Disease
Association is charged with the
responsibility of surveying needs
and pooling resources and tal-
ents in an attempt to eradicate
TB and, control other respiratory
diseases. The TB Assoc, works
closely with the TB Control Di-
vision of the State Department
of Health, under the direction of
Dr. Albert G. Randall. Educa-
tional materials are available
through both agencies.
Joe H. Sorrels, president of
the board conducted the busi-
ness session, and urged mem-
bers to assure local communi-
ties that each county will re-
ceive increased services as the
program expands. 1 ‘Christmas
Seals make our program possi-
ble,” Sorrels explained in advo-
cating an increased sales in each
