THE CANNING OF VEGETABLES.

The first step in successful canning
is the selection and preparation of the
vegetables. Never attempt to can any
vegetable that has matured and COM
menced to harden or one that has be-
gun to decay. says the Woman's
World. As a genral rule, young veg
etables are superior in flavor and tex
ture to the more matured ones. This
is especially true of string beans and
okra. Vegetables are better IL gath
cred in the early morning, while the
dew is still on them. If 1t is impos
sibIe to can them Immediately, do not
allow them to wither, but put them in
cold water or in cold, damp place
and keep them crisp until you aDe
ready for them. Do your canning In
q well swept and well busted room.
Contrary to general opinion. corn is
one of the easiest vegetables to can:
but in order to retain the Original
sweetness and flavor 1t is necessary
to can very soon after 1t is pulled
within an hour If possible. Select the
ears with full grains before they have
