Warning is given, however, against poor products and stock-selling schemes. Many inquiries regarding the extension of the drying industry, which is in its infancy in this country .are being received. It is essential from the beginning to assure products of excellent qualitv, government officials point out. Processes that do not give, such products will lead to loss of capital and local discouragement and will retard the general movement. The public is advised to beware, of irresponsible and unscrupulous stockselling schemes. Establishment, of drying plants and manufacture of highgrade. products require skill and experience, absence of which may damage the industry through flooding the market with inferior products. Drying when properly done is recognized as an efficient means of conserving food. It requires no sugar. It is reported that the German government has fostered the drying industry In that country. CAN V/ITHOUT SUGAR Washington, July 11—“ Keep canning. sugar or no sugar,” say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. If you can’t g“t enough sugar for home canning put up your fruit without it. The products will keep perfectly until a time when more sugar is available or until a sugar substitute program has been worked out. Fruits put up in this way are excellent for pie-filling and salads and may be used in desserts, puddings, ices and punches. In canning fruit without sugar, can the product the day it is picked. Cull, stem, seed and clean fruit by placing in strainer and pouring cold water over it. Pack the product carefully in hot glass jars or tin cans until full. Use a tablespoon .wooden ladle, or table knife for packing purposes. Pour boiling hot water over the product in the hot jar. Place rubers and caps in position, not tight. If using tin cans, seal completely. Place in the sterilizer vat. or canner, and sterilize for the length of time given below according to the particular type of outfit used: Hot water bath, homemade or commercial, 30 minutes: water seal, 214 degrees, 20 minutes; 5 pounds steam pressure, 12 minutes; 2 pounds steam pressure, 10 minutes. After sterilizing remove the filled containers. Seal jars; invert to cool and test the joints. Wrap in paper to prevent bleaching and store in a dry, cool place. If tin cans are used it will be found advantageous to plunge them into cold water immediately after sterilization to cool them quickly. oGRANDMOTHER WAS THE DRUGGIST

In the early days of our country grandmother was the druggist, and her drugs consisted mostly of roots and herbs gathered from the fields and forests. There was peppermint for indigestion, mullen for coughs, skullcap for nervousness, thoroughwort f or colds, wormwood for bruises and sprains and so on. They were successful remedies, too. It was from a combination of such roots and herbs that Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass., more than forty years ago, originated her now famous Vegetable Compound; and during all these long years no other remedy has ever been discovered to restore health to ailing women so successfully as this good old-fashioned root and herb medicine, advt. ——o — I HERE is ■ rauMy ttmt wUI curs most all skin aa* ; acalp troubles.
