She appreciates the Canadian system of , inspection and grading of certain foods and knows that she is assured of quality and uniformity when she buys by .grade. When she can at home she hopes to thing as good Fancy Quality. Whether she experience in canning or is a 1949 bride, she wants to know the best methods and last minute ideas. The home economists of jthe Consumer Section, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture, have just revised the bulletin, “Home Canning of Fruits . and Vege­ tables” which gives detailed in­ structions for canning in glass sealers and tin cans and also for making jams, .jellies and pickles. Using the wrong type of rub­ ber ring on the sealer or the wrong kind of tin can may lead to failure. Rubber rings are made in two widths. The narrower ring should be used only on screw-top seal­ ers and the wider ring only on spring-top sealers. The boxes of rings made ,in Canada are marked with the trade-names of the seal­ ers on which the rings should be used. Be sure to buy the right sized ring. Tin cans. There are three types of tin cans .sold for home 'can­ ning — Plain, Hr Standard and C-enamel.

Three Smart Colours recommended below: (Plain can — a general-purpose can which may be used for all foods except those for which the R or Standard enamel can , is recommended. Use only Plain cans for tomatoes or tomato juice. R or Standard enamel can — with bright reddish gold lining, should be cherries, and beets, vents the which occurs when these foods are canned in Plain cans. C-enamel can — with dull gold lining. This special lining prevents discoloration in corn. Oenamel cans may also be used for peas and pumpkin but NOT for fruits or tomatoes. Can covers —* Plain, <R or Standard enamel and C-enamel, t0 correspond with the three types of tin cans. The inside edge of the cover is lined with either a rubber ..compound or a paper gasket ""Tin cans may be processed in the boiling water bath or .pressure canner but should not be prosessed in the oven. Headspace. When packing glass sealers, fill to within % inch of top except in the case of corn and peas which expand more than other foods during processing. For corn and peas, allow 1 inch headspace. When packing tin cans, fill to within U inch of top except with corn and peas whch require J/a inch headspace. Leaving a headspace prevents loss of liquid from sealers or bursting .of tin cans. Do not use Chemicals or Can­ ning Compounds. *Air-tight con­ tainers and sufficient processing are all that are needed. to pre­ serve fruits and vegetables satis­ factorily. Suph chemicals as bor- acic acid, salicylic acid and sac­ charine are prohibited for Com­ mercial canning and may be harmful. Others, such as sulphur compounds, are restricted in com­ mercial use.

W. G, Marritt, agricultural re­ presentative for W e n t w o r t h County, .at the west end of Lake Ontario, forecast an increase in the price of dairy products. He said “farmers are paying as high as $30 a ton for baled hay,” which is double the usual price. “The hay seed next year will be very bad .due to the poor crop this year.” E. F. Neff, agricultural repre­ sentative at St. Catherines, said the hay crop in his .district was about 4 0 to 50 per cent, of norm­ al. Me said rain might bring on a good second crop which jvould improve the winter’s prospects. E. A. Summers reported from Durham County, that “hay is about one-third of normal sup­ ply.” “Farmers are buying it where- ever they can locate it. Some are paying $25 per baled, ton for it. Some will be asking a lot wore ? shortly and the dairymen simply I can’t afford it,” teacher of Dashwood Public School, is tending summer school at university in London.
