not require a pressure canner.

The boiling water bath method is

safer, easier, and anyone can make a water bath if one is not avail

able otherwise,

The new folder, “Home Canning of Fruits and Vegetables,” by the

bureau of human nutrition and | home economics, gives these new | instructions. 1. Look . over every tomato. Use only the ripe, firm, and perfect. Even if you cut out a bad spot, bacteria may be left and ruin the whole batch. 2. Wash tomatoes clean in several waters. Prepare only enough for one canner load at a time. 3. Put tomatoes in a wire basket or thin cloth. Dip into boil-"| ing water about a minute, then quickly into cold , . . for easy peeling. 4.

Have water 1 or 2 Inches over tops. Put on canner lid. When water boils hard, count time. and process 10 minutes at sea level: longer at higher altitudes. (If vou live at 1000 feet or more above sea level, vou have to process vour food in a boiling water bath longer.) The reason: water boils at a temperature below 212 degrees F. at these higher altitudes, 14. When time's up, take out one jar at a time and quickly tighten screw band. Keep jars topside up, and place on thick cloth or paper to cool. 15. While cooling, keep Jars well apart, and out of drafts. Next day remove screw bands if you can without forcing. If they stick, cover for a minute or two with a hot, damp cloth, to loosen.

Fen. J. Pershing, who led American troops to victory over another generation of German aggressors in world war I, called on his countrymen today to share his “every confidence” that American manhood again “will win through to victory” in their second great contest on western European soil. The 77-year-old general of the

{armies was the first high ranking

official in the nation’s capital to hail the landing of allied troops on the French coast, where the Germans had held uncontested ground supremacy since the dark days of Dunkerque three years ago. “American troops have landed ia western Europe. As the overmastering military might of the allies advances, it will be joined by the men of the occupied countries, whose land has been overrun by the enemy but whose spirit remains unconquered.

Invasion Victims

By UNITED PRESS

The first victims of the landings in Europe were 200,000 rabbits, if recent German radio reports were true. A Berlin broadcast recently reported that the German soldiers stationed along the *“Atlantikwall” had raised 200,000 rabbits as a “meat reserve” and that rabbit raising had become a sport “even for generals and field marshals.” The broadcast said the German high command would order the bunnies to be killed on D-day “because when they get nervous they might send off mines.”
