Jones charged that the senator made

He said that those who cheered tho

Denies Paul Beattie's Story.
The main features OF his defensive
testimony, however. were hts absolute
denial OF everything that Paul Beat
tie has said about him and about tho
case.
He denied that ne had ever au-
thorized Paul TO pick out gun for
him: he denied that Paul was ever
his oonhdant in any manner. Paul
only came to the store. he said, to
borrow money and that no one there
had any confidence in him. and that
when he did come he was closely
watched. He denied that he had ever
made an associate OF Paul. or that
hs ever visited at his house.

tails OF which Paul had testified to

Home Canning.

producing at home many food
products that they formerly
bought from other states
There is one phase OF this
good work that ought to he
more advanced than it is, and
that is the home canning of
vegeta bles and fruits.
Through the use of the home
Gamer which may be bought
at all sorts of prices from 81
up or which can be made at
home, it is possible for the
farm home to have an album
dance of vegetables and
fruits the year round.
There are many advantage
Us in home canning. It saves
the outlay annually made on
canned goods; it insures a
good food supply when fresh
vegetables are scarce; it'll
brings in some revenue when
the canned products are put
On the market !; it gives EN- |
