To Make Fruit Jar Rubbers Last.
To have fruit jar rubbers last, keep them well covered in a jar full of flour until used, and as soon aa removed from empty jars? One can then afford a good quality of rubbers, as kept thus they will, safely last several seasons. When there is doubt of old rubbers, they may often be made to eke out one more season by using two of the rubbers to each jar and screwing down tight. Always stand newly filled jars upside down until cool, to test the tops and rubbers. —Designer.
