Hello Homemakers! If Peter Pip-
er picked a peck of peppers, what
did he do with them? Perhaps like
many of us, there was little time
Nor pickling! Yet there are short
cats which will help, and here are
!pertinent ideas.
Take a Tip
1. Cucumbers may be left for 5
or 6 weeks before .pickling, if
eal.ean, fresh ones are kept in brine
in a crock.
2. Storage brine should be 2 cups
of common salt in one gallon of
cold water.
a Common salt or refined dairy
salt should be used. The iodized
and free -running salt makes a
cloudy rbrine.
4.'There is a standard for bot-
tled vinegars, yet some kinds are
more effective than others. Weak
vinegar produces greyish, pickles,
while a strong home-made vinegar
may cause cucumbers to wither.
6. As a general rule, whole spic-
es are preferred for most whole
,pickles. Tie whole spices in two
thicknesses of cheesecloth.
6. Do not use iron or copper
utensils for cooking pickles.

The Question .Box
Mrs. A. M. asks: Is it necessary
to sterilize bottles for pickles?
Answer: It is Wise to sterilize
containersfor storing any food.
However, if you clean jars using a
stiff brush and sudsy water, then
roll in a strong sotution.of chloride
of lime and scald them, the brined
pickles will keep successfully.
Miss R. T. asks: Is it nedsary
to coat chili sauce and 'ether
pickles with melted wax?
Answer: Unless the containers
have a glass lid and sealing ring,
all pickles should have a.thincoat-
ing of melted paraffin poured gent-
ly on top when mixture is cool.
Mrs. J, Mc. asks: Why does wax
shrink on top of jars of preserves?
Answer: Reason for wax float-
ing may be:
1. The syrup is not wiped off bhe
edge.
2. The lid presses the wax down.
3. Tae temperature of storage
room is very warm, or
4. The jar was too hot when wax
was added.
Mrs. C. D. asks: What can Co
done with chili sande that bas been
scorched?

During the twenty-one years that
Mr. and Mrs. Archie Robertson had
the Cromarty post office, the busi-
ness increased from $80 in the first
year, to $4,000 in the last year. The
increase was largely due in later
years to bhe cashing of postal notes
and post office money orders, and
ay always keeping a supply of pos-
tal notes o nhand for sale. During
the .first years they were ordered
when requested by a purchaser.

... to the wise!
The Biblical parable about the master passing out
talents to his servants has a ready application when
it comes to modern buying and selling. If you had
something in your home that does or could represent
cash in your favor, and you wanted to realize that
cash, you wouldn't take the article and put it in a
corner in the cellar. Of course not! You'd make an
sensible investment and wait for the return . . .
and when it comes to investments we can't offer a
wiser word than to remind yon that Expositor Want
Ads stand ready to give you about the fastest and
most economical approach to that return. Phone 41
and give us a chance to show you that for as little as
25 cents what may now be collecting dust could
collect cash.
