A Practical Chat On Canning

The secret OF all canning Is clean

Canning Is the heaviest work oi

Is to take great care In the preiimf
naries.
There are a few general points
which should be remembered:
Imperfect fruit should not De
canned.
New rubbers- should be used. each
season.
Care should be taken that rims OF
covers are not bent a.
The fruit should be cooked In porce-
lain or granite-iron kettle,
Fruit should be fresh. firm, OF good
quality, and not overr1pe. II should
be put up boiling hot and the jars
filled to the brim. Fruit should De
put up Mt the height of the season.
II has then Eipened naturally and has
not been bruised by long transporta-
ton.
Granite or borceiain-lined kettles
which are bryad mouthed will be
found best tb cook the fruit In. A
small. sharp pointed knife for pairing;
also an old silverplated knife ground
to a fine edge, will be convenient for
fruit which steel may discoior. A
wooden and a wire spoon. sieve,

and colander are useful aids.
Quart and pint glass jars, with large
tops, are the best for general use. III
you are obliged TO use common large
mouthed bottles with corks. steam the
corks and pare them TO close Mt,
