Canning Time.
Summer came so quickly to us ins.

and if we lived in a section fortunate;
enough to have a home agent or a
visit from a specialist we have had:
demonstrated to us the superiority of
home -canned stuff to that put up bye

Of course, you canned your rhub-
arb by the cold water method. That i
is, you peeled and cut the rhubarb, i
packed it into sterilized jars, filled e
the jars to overawing with cold water,;
using new rubbers, and sealed tight -s

may be canned in the same way,

next fail if you want to experiment;
with cranberries thee, too, may be'
done by cold water method.
When you open these fruits pour off'
joint. Wrap jars with paper to pre-
vent bleaching, and store.
Of course, you are going to make
some of your berries into sun pre-
serves. There are several ways of
doing this. Here is one. Pick the
berries early in the morning, choos-
ing weather which promises to. be
hot and dry for two or three days.
Wash and hull berries and weigh.
Alloy equal quantities of sugar and
berries. Place the berries on a shal-
low platter. Make a thick syrup of
the sugar moistened with just enough
,water or berry juice to dissolve the
sugar. Pour syrup over berries,
cover berries with a glass and set in
the sun until the berries are soft and
the syrup has jellied, The time de-
pends upon weather conditions. Then
store in fruit jars and simmer for
ten minutes in hot water bath.
A second method calls for boiling
the berries before placing in the sun.
Equal quantities of fruit and sugar
are used, Make a syrup by allowing
two cups of water for every three
cup of lard, or one large half -cup of
sweet cream, ldoisten with sweet
milk, add a pinch of salt. Roll out
the dough until it is creamy and .
smooth. Bake in two pie tins of
equal size. Remove from the oven
when it is a golden brown, For the
fruit filing„ take a pint of fresh
hulled strawberries; crush them and
add one cup of sugar. Mix them with
a cup of whipped sweet cream. Spread
each piece of the cake -with butter
and place the fruit between the lay-
ers. Serve while it is warn., In the
absence of strawberries any fruit
may be used, even canned fruit. --

NEW FACES FOR OLD.
Wonderful Work of London Surgeon
Briefly Described.
A studio in a hospital! It sounds
incongruous, but after one has spent
an hour in Captain Derwent ~;food's
studio at the 3rd London General Hos-
pital, all sense of incongruity disap-
pears, says London Answers.
Here it is that Captain Derwent
Wood. A.R.A., Ft.;1. ii.C. (T), takes up
the task where it has been beet by the
surgeon, and if he does not heal as
the surgeon has done before him, at
least he ameliorates the lot of those
who have suffered facial disfigure -
meats through wounds, and makes life
again passible.
