Relates His Experience

II happen to know something about

the Cook. The nearest school to my
home Is eight blocks away. A year ago
it was weeks before we could find school
accommodations for our four children.
and then it became necessary to send
the smaller children ten blocks to

one may can peaches SO that they will
keep indefinitely by using plain water
instead of syrup. The following recipe
may be used:
"Remove skins from peaches by i'm
mersing in boiling water for about
one minute and then dipping in cold
water. Place whole peaches in glass
jars or tins and fill jars with hot wa
ter. Place rubber and top in place
and sterilize for 10 minutes in hot
water-bath outfits, IL minutes in water
seal, 10 minutes at 5 pounds steam
pressure or minutes at 10 pounds
steam pressure.
"Of course the peaches when re-
moved from the jar will not taste so
sweet as those canned in syrup. How
ever, if sweetening is desired it may
be added when the fruit is to be eaten.
"This same method is good for can
ming with syrups containing varying
amounts of sugar. A very thin syrup
may be used if the housewife does
not wish to dispense entirely with the
sugar.
"Apples may also be canned (for
apple sauce, pie filling, etc. using
plain water instead of a sugar syrup.
Department specialists have repeatedly
canned them by this method. In the
case of apples, jars should be sterilized
16 minutes in hot-water-bath outfits,
IL minutes in water-seal, 10 minutes
under pounds of steam and four min
utes under 10 pounds Of steam"
The department, therefore, advises
housewives to consider carefully the
total cost of preserving, with sugar
high and fruit low, before determining
to wait or not to put up their usual
pantry supply.

WE ARKETING specialists of the De-
ksA partment of Agriculture who
have been following the fruit
situation call attention to the fact
that in almost all wholesale markets
peaches for canning and preserving are
very bountiful and are being sold at
prices advantageous for canning in
spite of the increased price of sugar.
While the peach crop has been some
what short in some sections, heavy
crops from other states have been
shipped in and have tended to keep
prices at a figure which encourages
canning. Later after the height of
the crop movement, prices for fruit
have a tendency to rise. Retailers are
urged to enable their customers to OBJ
tain fruit for canning at prices com
mensurate with the present low whole
sale price.
A great many housewives are now
being deferred from canning and pre-
serving their usual supply because of
bhO lhNANhoO III bhC PllIG VI sugar
There is no indication, however, that
the price of sugar will fall materially
during the present fruit season. 1t is
estimated, though, that with peaches
at their present prices the combination
of peaches and sugar necessary for
preserving will not make a prohibitive
total cost. Moreover, there are success
full methods of canning fruit which
call for much less sugar than that
usually employed in this process by
home preservers. The Department rec
ommends the following method of put
ting up peaches and apples without any
sugar for those who find their local
sugar prices prohibitive for canning

RAISING LAMBS FOR THE WINTER
MARKET.
By o. A. Chote.

4 DO not often feed my lambs much
grain before November the first
OF course, however, this depends
upon the time 1 expect to sell them.
Usually feed for the January and
February market.
With lambs in thrifty condition
weighing from 20 to 80 pounds l can
put them on the market in rs days.
In order to make gains for the early
winter market, lambs must be brought
to the barns at night by the first of
November and fed some small grains in
yards.
About the twentieth of November l
begin to keep them in yards and in
crease their feed of grain and hay,
gradually decreasing their ration of
grass. By this method l have made
them weigh 25 pounds more by the first
of January than they did the first of
November.
l feed corn and oats half and half,
giving them all they will eat of the
mixture, and by December the first [
feed a quart of oats by measure and
try to have them eat one pound per
head.
By the first of January I feed all
corn and from one to one and one
fourth pounds per head, or as much as
they will eat up clean in day.
They are kept in the barn all the
time except when they are fed grain in
the morning at o'clock at night and
at 4 o clock in the afternoon when they
are allowed to go into the yards.
The hay is put into the racks indoors

SUMMER DAYS.

oh, the dear baysl Oh, the sweet days,
How the summer loves the land,
How she lavishes her riches, giving them
with eager hand;
Green Of grass and rainbow glory where the
bright flowers blossom free,
Gold of grain and feathery foliage where
bare hillsides used to be,
Calm, clear water with tho wonder Of the
skies imprisoned fast,
Vagrant south winds bearing fragrance on
their pinions wander past.
Oh, the warm daysl Oh, the long daysl
Each a sequence Of delight
From the early morn till noontime, from
the noontimo till the night.
Earth seems joining in our gladness while
we drink at Natures spring.
And time passes us so swiftly that we
scarcely hear his wing.
In the forest, by the lakeside, on the
heaven aspiring hill,
New delights and joys are waiting we may
take them II we will.
We may find neponthe's waters, drink and
set our spirits FREQ
From tho shadow Of past sorrows, from
the fear Of griefs to be-;
For the golden cup Of summer oyerfloWS
each happy day;
In your heart enshrine its gladness, for il
soon will pass away
