When You Can Fruits Or Vegetables darefully Sterilize the Jars the Wash Boiler Will Be jmt the Thing to Do It In. BY CAROLINE COE.

1 V V 1

of first importance in preserving veL'et;ible is sterilization that i. the process of removing by heat the bacteria that teems in all vegetables and in the air, too, and cause decomposition if they t-et into the preserve jars. A wash boiler makes a first rate sterilizing vat in which to boil the vegetables to be preserved; the boiling takes place, of course, after they have been put in the jars. Have a tight cover for the boiler and a false bottom, as the jars must not come in contact with the boiler bottom. Thin pieces of wood will do, but better still is a piece of No. 16 wire netting of half an Inch mesh. Don't crowd the jars In the holler. When they are In place pour in about three inches of water, or just enough to make steam and keep the boiler from going dry. Put on the rover and let boil for an hour. Then remove the lid and let the steam escape. The jars may be removed, or left in the boiler to cool. This boiling process should be repeated three days in ?uccession, one hour each day. When the steiilization. or boiling is complete the jars may be set aside for a day or two and then examined for signs of decomposition. If the.v have started to spoil it will be cheaper in the end to empty the jars and try a fresh supply. Corn. Select full-grained ears. Shear off the grains with a sharp knife ;;Mu pack the jar full. d I salt to taste, about a teaspoonful to a quart is enough. Put the rubber ring on the neck of the jar and place the glass top on loosely. Then place the glas top on loose and put the jars in the boiler to sterilize. Poll hem as described previously me hour each day for three days. neet. Although beets will keep In the cellar over winter. It is very desirable to can them while they are young and tender, as the mature beec ;s apt to be stringy and lacking iu J!aor. Wash the young beets, cut off the tops, and put them In boiling water for about an hour and a half, or until they are thoroughly cooked. Take off the skins, cut in thin slices, and pack into the jars. Cover with water and sterilize in the manner previously described. If a mild pickle Is desired, make a mixture of equal parts of water and good vinegar, sweeten to taste, and cover the beets with this mixture instead of water. Summer Sqrnedi. Cut the vegetable into small blocks, pack in jars, and cover with water. Add a teaspoon of salt to each quart and sterilize. It is sometimes preferable with this vegetable, however, to pare off the skin, boil or steam until thoroughly done, mash them, and then pack in the jars and sterilize. If canned in the latter way. it is advisable to steam them for an hour and a. half, instead of for an hour, on each of three days, as the heat penetrates the jar very slowly. It is absolutely necessary that the interior of the jar should reach the temperature of boiling water. A jar will usually hold acted as best man.

CANNING WISDOM.

Imperfect fruit should never be preserved. (Inarly fruit may be used for jellies or marmalades by cutting out defective portions. lirulsed spots should be cut out of peaches and pears. In selecting small-seeded fruits, like berries, for canning, those having a small proportion of seed to nuip should be chosen. The fruit should be rubbed through a sieve that Is fine enough to keep back the seeds. The strained pulp can be preserved as a puree or marmalade. When fruit Is brought into the house put It where it will keep cool and crisp until you are ready to use it. about twice as much of the cooked vegetabk as it will of the uncooked. Watch The News-Times for more of Pncle Sara's canning and preserving recipes. VEGETABLE HINTS. Never attempt to can a vegetable that has matured and commenced to harden, and, of course, a vegetable that has commenced to decay j of no use as an article of food. Do your canning tn a well-kept, well-dusted room. It's the dust that gets into the jars tnat spoil? preserves. Young vegetables arp superior ir: flavor and texture to mature ones. TPs the germs with vhi, h the air teems that cause fermentation of preserves. Sterilize th jars by boiling In hot water, and ster'liz ho vegetables themselves bv boiMng them. KANNING KINKS. Use wide-mouthed jars; (hey are ea.v to clean, easy to fill, and convenient in every wav. Cse fresh rubber rb.gs; if the rings are not soft and elastic the sealing will be imperfect. A scales is not a re?e;ty, but it will help a whole lot to have a pair on the table when yo i are "putting up" the fall preserves. Have plenty of cheesecloth, and spotslessly clean kitchen towels at hand while you are canning or preserving. An asbestos mat to slip under the kettle is a great convenience. Canned Corn On The Cob 1Y CAROLINE COK. Select fresh, perfect ears of corn; husk and pack In wide-top half-gallon jars. Pack closelv hut do not crowd to spoil shape of the ears or kernels. To each quart of cold water used add one teaspoon of susrar and turn over corn. Adjust top to jar but do not screw on. Place jar In boiler on rack (a good rack may be secured from the slats on top of grape or melon baskets) and put cold water in boiler to two-thirds the heicht of lar Cover boiler, heat slowly and when at boiling point boil at least four hours. The longer it Is boiled the more likelv it is to keen . Put on rubber. adjust top and cool slowly. Wrap in brown paper and keep In cool, dry place. Economy Pickles A Tested Recipe BV CAHOLIXK CO i-:. Wash one and one-half pecks of small-sized cucumbers and place in stone jar. Add one cup of dry mustard to one cup of salt and one, even teaspoon of powdered alum. Mix this together until well blended then stir it slowly Into one gallon of cider vinegar. Turn over pickles in jar and weight pickles down.
