The Frontier Woman —
First Thing Ya’ Know It’ll Be Christmas;
Better Start Thinking About Early Shopping
Br BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Goodness, fall is here, and the
kids are back in school! Where
on earth has the summer gone?
It went tearing by as far as I’m
concerned on speed king’s wings.
First thing we know, it will be
Christmas. Suppose we'd better
start thinking about that early
shopping, huh?
Well, hern’s a tip! Put away a
few jars of your choicest pickles.
Jelly, jam, and relishes on the
gift shelf. They make the finest
kind of gifts for folks who don t
put up their own. You’ll be sur
prised at how thrilled they will
If you want the jelly to look
beautiful, and to obtain the best
results, it is advisable to work
with a small quantity of juice.
Two quarts of juice is a suffi
ciently large quantity to handle
at one time. Meausure juice,
bring to a vigorous boil, skim the
juice and add sugar in propor
tion given in special recipes. Stir
until sugar is dissolved. Cook
rapidly for 10 to 15 minutes or
until test shows jelly is done. It
is unnecessary to skim again.
To test the jelly, dip a spoon
into the juice. Cool slightly and
allow to drop from the side of
the spoon. If it sheets and tears
off from the spoon in a dis
tinct piece the jelly is done,
and should be removed from
the fire immediately.
You can make beautiful mint
jelly using apple juice. If you eat
much lamb, you’ll find mint
jelly a favorite accompaniment to
the roast lamb.
Wash mint and chop fine. To
each cup of chopped mint add Vi
cud of sugar and Vi cup of wa
ter, and let stand for several
hours, or overnight. Bring to
boiling point, then strain. Com
bine sugar and apple juice, using
2/3 cup sugar to 1 cup apple
juice. Cook and test for jelly, and
when the jellying point is obtain
ed. add green vegetable coloring
and 1 or 2 tablespoons of prepar
ed mint juice for each quart of
apple juice.

Canning Recipes
from Reader—
Dear Mrs. Pease:
As this is the time of year for
canning, I will send in a few
recipes and also some “did you
knows?" If you peel a ring around
center of new potatoes, when
boiling with jackets on. the skin
will loosen easily.
When filling gem pans, if you
leave one section empty and fill
with water the gems will never
scorch. To ' prevent a vegetable
salad from becoming sodden
when it has to stand, place a sau
cer upside down in the bowl be
fore filling it with salad. The
moisture will run underneath and
the salad will remain crisp and
fresh.

No woman is happy for long
unless she is changing things,
her kitchen, her clothes or redo
ing the living room. A husband
may just consider himself lucky
if she doesn't try to remodel him.
If as a man thinketh, so he is,
some men would be millionaires
and world famous. But what one
thinks one can do, does not al
ways pan out that way. Plenty of
people get hurt trying, but if we
did not try, there would be no
progress in the world.
