Canning fruits is a very simple pro-
cess. IL the housekeeper has a thor
ough understanding Of the real mean
ing OF sterilization and cleanliness.
Fruits should be perfectly fresh and
not over ripe.
Only in extreme emergencies should
this work be done by the bushel,'
which is the manner in which most
women have canned or preserved fruits
aad then wondered why they disliked
putting up fruits; wondering why they
were not as successful as their neigh
bors or were i'll for several days after.

If II is necessary to can a dozen
cans at once. the steam cooker s!mpli-
iies both time and labor, as all may go
in at once. Only one burner is neces
sary under it and it will run for two
and cne-half hours without reflling
with water. \ wash boiler for canning
fruit is not recommended under any
circumstances, as there are many ways
much easier by which the work can be
perfectly done.

Representative Butts, chairman of
the republican steering committee,
then offered a resolution inserting the
SO IA per cent proviso. A similar pro-

McGraw went down to the grocery one
day with a couple of perfectly good

Rather enjoying baseball and siren
uOsity, McGraw has stuck to both
trades all his life, except for brief
excursions into vaudevilliany and

McGraw's teams have won four Ma

1911 and 1912. He was a member Of
the old Baltimore Orioles and, with
that aggregation, got his reputation
for pugnacity and his misplaced nick
name of ''Muggsy." He first broke into
the baseball business, professionally,
with the Olean IN. V team in the
Western New York and Pennsylvania

Ohm J. McGRAw!


The "J' stands for James Mr..
- McGraw's parents thoughtfulIy
provided him with an extra name that
wasn't too hard to pronounce. so that
in case of accident or inadvertence, he
wouldn't run out of handy nomencla-
ture.
In a broad, general way of speaking,
the public has more or less wei de-
fined idea that John James McGraW
gets up early every morning in or
slaughter folks. It has been popularity
supposed that one of his matuinal
pastimes involves the shedding of
bucketsful of human blood Mr. Nc
GraW has been numerously pictured
as a person who WhetS his teeth regu-
IarIy in order that he may not be I'M
duly delayed when he desires to bite
the arm off an umpire.
This is quite an erroneous impress
sion of the Hon. J. J. McGraW- he is,
as a matter of fact. a rather mild per
SOn-ordinarily. To be sure. he dearly
loves to place himself on the coaching
lines. and casually intimate that the
person, who is attempting to umpire
the game, is adamantine from the neck
north. Also he has been known to sug-
gest that, if the swatting of insects
were made compulsory by law, there
wouldn't be an umpire left inside of
q hours. Aside from these little pleas
antries. Mr.. McGraw has a very high
regard for the umpiratical gentry.
John James was born in Truxton,
1873. He played ball on the lot
back of pas barn. and tried, with
varying unSuccess, to lick every kid
in the neighbOrhood. Once in a
while he got a decision. According
to oldest inhabitant testimony, young
