enjoyed them more than aiiy other,

twenty-four pints and every one kept

When. canning peas; be sure to can
as: quickly as possible after picking.
As I shell them, I grade them accord-
ing to size, and also put the more ma-
ture ones into one pan and the young
tender ones into another. This ;will
insure a more evenly cool{ed product.
I also takeout all split and broken

After washing, I - blanch 'the more ma-

the young tender ones about four min-

Oil from' Beechnuts.
Not long ago'measures were taken
by the Mlnister,of-Agriculture in Hol-
land to' increase the supply of edible
oils in that country by making full use
of the domestic beechnut.crosS It bs
estimated that between 2,000 and 2,500
metric tons of'these nuts may be col-
lected if every effort be made and
Haat from this amount of raw nuts 300;
000 to 400,000 kilos of oil may be ob-
tained. This would afford a valuable
addition to the stooks of edible oils in
the Netherlands.
Owners of private lands from which
beechnuts are • gathered receive com-
pensation at the rate of 5 per" cent. of
the sums paid to the gatherers, and
they, also enjoy tire -right to pui•eltaee

A forest at maturity, contains about
5 per cent, of the trees that started

greater . than_in the case of -trees:
About 95 per cent: of trees' die before

.There :are exceptional 'trees which
