Editor The Spectator: Will you
please let me tell your readers
something about canning green

String the beans carefully,
break them into short lengths,
rinse carefully, place in a pan
and bring to q boil. Let them
boil about ten minutes. Have
aterllized jars heated and ready.
Fill jars with beans, and to each
half gallon jar add one-fourth
tea cup of good vinegar. Fill
the jar completely with the juice
and that's all. You don't need
any second and third boiling if
you use good vinegar.
| have, in all my canning eX-
perience, lost only one jar OF
beans canned this way and that
was due to a defective lid,
Now, TO prepare for the table,
beans that have been canned
this way, wash them through
two or three clear waters, boil
them one hour. Pour off the
water and add more clear water,
season in the usual way, return
to the fire and cook tender.
Tomatoes, too, are easily kept
if canned this way: Gather ripe
tomatoes early in the morning.
Rinse them. few at a time, in
cold water, peel without scald.
ing, remove the core, slice into
the canning vesael with only
their own Juice TO cover them
Boil at least thirty minutes. ha ye
Jars sterlli2ed and heated, fill,
and be sure To pour in the juice

ENJOYABLE Reunion

The Stone Hill school reunion
last Saturday was largely attend
ed by old students, teachers,
directors and patrons from Vari-
Gus parts of many states. A
number had not met for twenty
five years.
The reunion was truly one of
the most delightful social gather
ings that has ever taken place IN
this county. 1t appeared as
though everybody in attendance
came to have a good time and a
real old-time hand shake, and
they did if indications count, and
there never was more genuine
handshaking than there was at
this reunion don't think any
one escaped a shake.
During the day an excellent pro-
gram was rendered, being COM
menced by H. A. Nickel who
presided, telling in a short talk
the object of the reunion. The
address of welcome made by
Ben Williams, and the response
by A. j. Tubb, were good.
School exercises conducted by
w. |. Agee, brought forth con-
siderable favorable comment.
Next came dinner and a feast
it was. There was everything
in edibles that one could wish
for.
An enjoyable feature of the al
ternoon program was an hour 5
social chat, then a recitation by
Myra Harris, which was splen-
did, also one by Mrs. John Nose

Damage by Water,
The excessive rain of last
week caused an overflow of Big
Mulberry Creek, which resulted
in the destruction of thousands
of dollars worth of growing
crops, including also, some stock
and immence amount of fencing,
etc. AT the home of j. E. Dick
erson, near the Johnson county
line, the water was three feet
deep in the house. The family,
however, had left the house in
time to save themselves,
The water also surrounded the
house of Pleas Kelley, of Red
ding, and wss in his house also,
but not so deep as in the Dicker-
son house.
Some lost more than others,
but the list of loosers in Lime

SERIOUS MISUSE IF

OF the results obtained by federal

this medicine has resulted in saving
many hogs from cholera in PETIT"
