The first step in the fruit canning
process is to get good fruit, cull put
the bruised and imperfect fruit, and
use the good fruit without delay.
Then yea heat the fruit, if you are
using the hot-pack method, which
the Bureau of Home Economics
recommends. You heat slowly and
thoroughly, cither with sugar or in
ryrup, not to cock the fruit bnt to
urivc the air cut of it and shrink it
io you can put more into the can.
Then you pack the hot fruit into
the can, or fruit jar. Before filling
the jars you wash, rinse, and sterilize
them by boiling them in water. You
have them hot when the fruit goes
into them, and seal them quickly be
fore they begin to cool. You do not
fill them quite full, but leave a little
"head space."
The filled jars are then "process
ed" that is, ycu give them a final
heating to kill any bacteria or other
organisms that may be left in the
fruit which may sooner cr later
cause them to spoil. For this, if you
do not have a ready-made water-bath
canner, you can use a wash boiler,
or some other container partly filled
with boiling water, with a rack on
the bottom to hold the cans. You
put the hot, sealed cans on the rack,
with the water covering them and
Veep the water boiling. How long
to keep the cans in the water bath
depends on the kind of fruit, the
size of the jar, etc. The Bureau of
Home Economics tells you, in Farm
ers' Bulletin 1471-F, how much time
is needed for each fruit.
When the processing, or steriliz
ing is done, you take the cans out
of the hot water bath and let them
cool. But here again, it is necessary
to remember your physics and chem
istry. If ycu set hot glass jars cf
fruit where a draft cf cold air strikc3
them, they will break. And if, when
they are cool, you store them 'where
the light strikes them, the color cf
the fruit will fade. So you put glass
jars away in a cocl dark place.
1935 Oorn-Hog Contracts Ready
to Sign About June 1st.
The office will start typing 1935
corn-hog contracts next week and
they will be in. the hands of precinct
committeemen about June 1st for
final signatures cf producers. Notices
will be sent to those that have made
applications of - when and where to
go to affix their signature to the
contract.

Science in Canning iruit.
With the berry and fruit season
not far away, it is time to turn our
thoughts to the tusk of home can
ning. The canning of food is an ap
plication of the principles of three
branches of science bacteriology,
physics and chemistry. Though ycu
c:o not have to be a scientists to suc
ceed with it, you do have to follow
those scientific principles if you want
your canned foods to keep. So it may
be well to brush up on our canning
fcinnce and look ;f;a.in at the prin
ciples that underlie the process by
which we may stock' up the pantry
shelves with canned foods for next
winter.
Fruits and vegetables spoil be
cause of certain natural changes that
go on inside them and also because
tbev are contaminated from without.
Canning stops both these processes.
It ends the ripening process, of
course, it kills the contaminating or
ganisms and so sterilizes the food,
rnd keeps the fesod sterile by sealing
it away from the air so that no oth
er organisms can ct in.
There is some difference, however,
between canning fruits and canning
most of the vegetables, and meat.
Foi canning purposes, foods are di
vided into two classes, the acid foods,
including fruits and tomatoes, and
the non-acid foods such as core,
beans, peas, the rest of the vegetables
and all meats. The reason for this
elivision is that in fruits and toma
toes, boiling temperatures are neces
sary to kill the organisms which
cause the food to spoil, whereas much
higher temperatures , are required to
kill such organisms in corn, beans,
peas and all non-acid foods. In fact,
you cannot he sure of getting the
high temperatures you need to steril
ize the non-acid foods unless you
have a steam pressure cooker.
The canning job before us now
then, that of berries and fruits, is
the easier one. All of these are in
the acid class and we do not nerd
a steam pressure or cooker fcr then,

MAKE THIS SUMMER MODERN
DO you prefer to bask thi3
summer under a beach um
brella or to broil in a hot
kitchen over a blazing stove? Do
you prefer to invite your soul in
Bome dewy glade in the mountains
or to sweat over cooking meals
when everyone else is having a
good time? These are not idle
questions because we have an
answer to them. Whether you go
to the seashore or the mountains
you can go modern and minimize
your time in the kitchen by a
Judicious use of canned foods.
Think back to the seashore and
mountain resorts ycu have gene to
in previous summers. Didn't
they know this trick if you went
to a boarding house or hotel? It's
Just as true for you in a bungalow
or cottage. Canned foods will
tave you enough time to Lave a
good time. Arrange to have them
on hand, and to have more shipped
to s ou when the voracious summer
appetites of your fam'ly have gob
bled there up.
What to r-rcvlw'e
The main vegetables yen should
provide yourself !tb are corn,
peas, tomatoes and btr.s, but you
ehould also include r; pleach' for
the children, and tuc.1 'treats" as
artichokes, asparagu.-, Brussels
sprouts, a delicate ror..b:nation of
carrots and peas, r:ry. mush
rooms and sauerkrau. will make a
hit with the grown-up", too. There
is no reason why j-ou can't have
as varied a table on your vacation
as you ever have at home.
Then you should have more ?h,
especially if you are goins to the
mountains where the supply of
iodine is apt to be small. You can
save anchovies, clams, codnsh
cakes and flakes, herring, lc.bs:ers,
mackerel, salmon, and of cours3
you will want some sardines for
picnics and tuna fish for refresh
ing salad3. You can .ven have
caviar, shad roe, shrimps and
turtle if you want to Te an epi
cure. Good Milk EssenfJal
Milk is, of course. Pie main
stay of the children's dit. and it
has to be good milk cr you'll know
the reason why. You can have
milk thac is not only Invariably
good but cheap by using the evap
orated kind that comes in cans.
As to its goodness there is no
question, and as to its cheapness
Miss Lucy Giliett, nutritional di
rector of the New York Associa
tion for Improving the Condition
of the Poor, Ftated recently that in
New York City where Grade B
milk' is eleven cents a quart and
unsweetened evaporated milk costs
six cents a can for a can which is
equivalent in food value to a quart
of pasteurized milk, mothers
where families use three or four
quarts each day save as much as
?3.00 a month through the use of
evaporated milk.
Take Fruits Along, Too
You should also have a supr'r
cl the principal canned fruits and
fruit juices for summer drinks.
There may be a few local frei.h
fruits where you go, but never any
tuch variety as you can get la
cans. This includes apples, apri
cots, blackberries, cherries, cocoa
nut, currants. fi?;3, gooseberries,
grapes, grapefruit, loganberries,
psaches, pears, pineapple, plums,
prunes, rarpberries, rhubarb and
strawberries with a r. umber o"
combinations of several fruit.-.
Have you ever been to a rummer
resort that could provide all these,
or even a small proportion o
them, fresh?
And meats. The local supply In
not apt to be too good in a rcmo'.o
country resort, but the meats that
come in can3 are government in
spected from hoof to sealed can.
If you take along some corn-l
beef, roast b?ef, beef steak, frank
furters, ham. deviled, loaf, spicotl
cr whole, sausage, ongue and veal,
you can laugh at the local butcher
and provide for yourself.
An Easy Method '
You are the only one who can
calculate the food needs of your
family. Jot them down and select
from the foregoing sureytiens
what you think you'll need for a
week or two. You'll find that ua
easy method. When supplies run
low you can replenish them by
simply mailing a post-card to your
grocer. In these days he'll appre
ciate not' losing your - summer
trade.
