Easy CANNING Of Fruit.

Instead OF canning berries and fruits
wholesale and eXhaIsting yourself
for a whole day at a time over a hot
stove. did you ever try putting up a
few jars at a time by the heat OF the
stove as you cook dinner? In this
way the canning can be made merely
incidental to cooking the regular
meals and the shelves will fill rapidly
under the system. Jams and jellies
in smaller quantities, too, have a
richer flavor.
