DATED at Wingham, Ontario, this 11th day of September, A.D. 1939, R. S. HETHERINGTON, Wingham, Ontario, Solicitor for the Administrators, Fruit is So -necessary to maintain the balanced ration that we must see to it that none -of the crop is wasted. Perishable fruits and vegetables which cannot be cellar stored must be "canned. f Sugarless canning of fruits has proved so successful that many prefer it to the., old. method of canning with sugar. You will be surprised at the delicate flavor of raw fruit which this method retains. Sugarless canning will result in a decided economy, for even if sugar is added when serving the canned fruit, the amount then used will be much less than the amount which Would have been used in canning with Sugar,. The reason for this is that all fruits ^contain acids, and, where cane sugar is cooked with a product con taining acids some of the sweetening property of the sugar is lost and fruits, therefore; are sweetened with less sugar After they have been cook ed. Moreover, tastes vary so largely fid the mhttef “of sugar that where each person'is allowed to sweeten to taste it will be found that many pre fer to use little or no sugar in order to retain the i spoiled. I The.,addition of sugar is not nee'es- I saty to preserve the fruits from de cay, and, used in the proportion usual in canning, it takes no part whatever in their preservation for, in order that sugar may act as a preservative it must bd Used in the form of a thick syrup, or, as in jams and jellies when original fruit flavor tin- having JcgaM "onU ’toclaims j P^eSbl^YirVkT'easiest of all products-to tan.

Jaw.. iaad M the ad. greens still re- ?„, 4en, women every- rok out every available 'T ’HI ed vegetables for babies and the ,sick, and family use, Few women attempt to manage without having some jars of each of their favorite fruits stored away for winter use. Few women, however, carry the canning idea past that stage in normal peaceful years. Few indeed realize that Home Can ning may become a perfect boon in reducing the cost of living, in elim inating garden and orchard waste, and in providing necessities at very low cost in times of pressing need. Home Canning is Thrift, Home Canning today is vital. Save all waste! Be a worker! Be a canner! Sugarless Canning Sugarless Canning will do more to teach the importance of sterilizing and sealing than any other lesson, for upon these two points depends your success. Fruits must be’ Steriliz- ed in such a way that all bacteria, molds, yeasts etc., are killed and then sealed so that no further matter to cause decay can enter the jars. In Closed Boiler Canning some form of sterilizer is necessary, and we wish to point out the fact that the utensils which every farm and home already have on hand may be con verted into satisfactory sterilizing vats. An ordinary tin wash boiler is admirably adapted for this purpose, provided it has a tight fitting cover which will keep in the steam, When canning only tWo or three jars, a large pail or lard can with a cover will be found more convenient than the cumbersome wash boiler, neces sary for a day’s canning. A False Bottom is absolutely ne cessary, This is made to fit the bot tom of the sterilizer and may be made of a piece of board full of holes or a piece of heavy wire netting, or pieces of lath nailed crosswise. This is placed in the bottom of the boiler to keep the jars from direct contact with the heat of the stove. Containers may be of any type whatever, provided they have no cracks or chips, and have perfect fit ting tops. It is advisable to use ev ery jar you possess, which will make a perfect seal, but in purchasing new jars care should be taken to select a type of jar which may be easily clean ed, easily sealed and which has a san itary glass top. Rubber rings’ must be firm, pliable and fit snugly, and be thick enough to ensure perfect sealing. Many jars of fruit have been.spoiled through de fective rubbers. Do not economize on ■ rubbers. Use new ones. One spoiled jar of preserves would cost more than a dozen new rubbers. Get the habit • of burning old rubbers as each jar is ' emptied. This will necessitate new rubbers each time the jars are used,.. and you will find fewer spoiled pro ducts. ; : • " I ■ ‘ - i i I 1 l Before preparing the product to be canned, always put the clean empty jars in the wash boiler. Have a board full of holes or a piece of heavy wire netting placed in the bottom of the boiler, to keep the jars from direct contact with the heat of the fire. Cov er the jars with cold water, bring to a boil and then set the boiler at the back of the stove. When jars are wanted lift out one at a time and do not wipe it. The glass tops, rubbers and dipping cup, may be sterilized in the same manner, by placing them in a wire basket and then into a sauce pan of boiling water. When needed lift the wire basket out of the water, take out one rubber and- top, and re place in the water until needed again. Jars and rubbers have been dealt with so thoroughly that canncrs must now realize that it is folly to attempt canning until jars with perfect tops are secured. The type is immaterial so long as ft seals tight and has a sanitary top. Pay particular attention to the rubbers as they guard the door against the approach of bacteria from the outside air. See that they are competent to perform this important duty. Run your finger round the rim of each jar. If it has the tiniest chip in it, reject it. Try on the rubbers, if they are nicked or bulge use others. Perform these tests before commenc ing your day’s canning. The principles of canning are al ways the same — the product must be sterilized until all bacteria is kill ed., and then sealed to keep out the unsterilized outside air. The water in the boiled should be warm but not hot when the jars (fill ed) are put in, and should complete ly cover the jars, If the lids fits snug ly the steam winch collects in the up per portion of the boiler will assist in the sterilizing. The jars should be covered with water in order to avoid too great loss Of liquid in the jars. Do not open the jars after steriliz ing because the fruits have shrunk, The space left by the shrinkage of the fruit, and the escape of some of the water' by ’steard, U sterilized vacuum and wilf’Wt' IA atfjHWaj? injure the product * ' ‘ > Wrap jars in paper before sMrmg to preserve the beautiful CoWing5 tt‘f the fruits. -V To Stop Constipation Get at Its Caus*e!

Tees water FALL VS, SPRING PLOUGHING FOR SILAGE CROPS (Experimental Farms News) The season ^of the year when the land is ploughed in preparation for succeeding crops often has a direct bearing on the yields secured. An experiment was conducted the Dominion Experimental Farm Nappan, N.S,, over a period of years comparing various methods preparing sod land for sunflowers, states S. A. Hilton, Senior Assistant at the Farm, .The treatments compared and the average yields secured per acre were as follows: 1. Ploughing in August and top working, 16.1 tops. 2. Ploughing in August, top work ing, reploughing in the spring, 16.0 tons. 3. Ploughing late in the fall, (after October 15th), 15.5 tons. 4. Ploughing in the spring, 14.8 tons. Weather conditions are a definite factor in crop production, and may influence yields under certain condi tions to a greater extent than cultural methods. However, in eleven of the fifteen years that this experiment was conducted, spring ploughing gave the lowest Or second lowest yield of any treatment. August ploughing, follow ed by top working, proved to be the most economical practice, for not on ly did it increase the yield by 1.3 tons per acre, but it permitted the control of such weeds as*couch grass and spurrey that is not possible on late fall or spring ploughed areas without a large amount of hand labour. Ploughing twice did not prove be economical in the production sunflowers for. ensilage. Further experiments are now under way to letermine the most satisfac tory method of sod land preparation for corn. ■ ■ to of LOCAL AND PERSONAL stitch inStyle in every these fnew raglan shoulder topcoats.
