in boiling water for an hour at time
on three successive days, and allow
them to cool in between. This shorter
period of heating gives better quality,
while successive heating and cooling
insures the destruction of the spores
or seeds as they develop, these being
more resistant and not destroyed by
the heat that kills the bacteria them
selves.
The Question of Containers.
The housekeeper has the advantage
of being able to put up her goods in
glass, avoiding the difficulties of the at
tack on the tin by the contents-while
for the commercial Gamer glass is al
most prohibtory because of first cost,
extra expense in shipment, breakage,
etc.
Also, the housewife can use her con-
tainers over and over and so afford
the initial higher cost. The solution
Of the tin in the contents is in most
cases very small interchangeable

New Standard Lard and Fruit Press.
Made by the New Standard Hardware
Works, Mount Joy, Penn.


This press possesses but few parts
and is provided with table clamp
that opens one and one-half inches and
fastens it securely. 1t is so designed
that the base is on an angle for quick
drainage and the perforated cup has
a bottom so that the contents cannot
be scattered. The pressure bar by
means Of latch device can be split at
the centre and attached or detached at
any point Of the screw shaft, thereby
permitting saving in time when press
ing and reflling. All parts of the New
Standard Fruit and Lard Press are
metal, timed and through their accessi-
bility are readily kept sanitary. It's
operation is simple and in tests made
in the Institute berries were quickly
and successfully pressed. When they
are put into a small cotton bag and
then placed in the press the juice is
as clear as when dripped through a
Jelly bag. Extra attachments are pro-
vided for using this device to stuff
sausages.

To can or not to can-that is the
question:
II you must use a gas stove over
a long period of cooking, buy your
material in small lots at city prices,
use heat and service that would
otherwise not be employed-then,
probably, you do not gain anything
economically by doing your own can
ming and preserving.
On the other hand, if you have a
small country place, or even hand
kerchief" garden, or if you can get
from small producers. in the height
of the season, fruits and vegetables
in reasonably large amounts at re-
duced rates, and use fire and service
that would be available, anyway
then you certainly miss something If
you deprive yourself and your family
of the pride and pleasure and whole
someness Of the we'll stocked closet,
with its tidy rows of canned goods,
jellies and preserves. No housekeep-
er can do without them, whether they
be bought or homemade, when win
ter time comes.
Commercial VS.. Homemade Goods.
The cannery has the advantage Of
the housekeeper in having special ma
chinery for applying the exact de-
gree Of temperature desirable for diff
ferent products, and for sealing the
cans most efficiently.
On the other hand, the housekeeper
has an advantage in the favoring and
handling of smaller quantities, pro-
ducing a more delicious and distinc-
tive product than any but the most ex-
pensive commercial goods. This ap-
plies more especially to preserves
than TO canned goods.
Complete sterilization by heat and
hermetical sealing in a tin container
are the characteristics of canned
goods, commercially speaking. The

godsend.
Illness from Canned Goods.
The tales Of illness from canned
goods are greatly exaggerated. and
most often conclusions are jumped at
in assigning causes. Only fish, meat
and milk could spoil in any dangerous
sense, developing ptomaines, ETC.;
vegetables and fruit nearly always
give evidence of spoilage to the sense
of smell and taste, and it is very doubt
/ ful if ptomaines are ever formed In
them. Spoilage is usually due TO
der-processing or a leak in the con-
tainer. and any canned food which
shows discoloration, foreign odor or
taste or a swelling of the can should
be thrown away without debate.
Despite some difference Of opinion
on the subject, we still think that
canned goods after opening should be
emptied into a glass or earthen con-
tainer, covered, kept in the ice box and
used as soon as possible. Even per-
feet processing cannot prevent subse-
quent deterioration after the air is
admitted. Canned goods are not per-
feet any more than fresh foods-the
original material may be infected--but
they present no special dangers and
are about 90 per cent an unqualified
blessing.

White Crown Mason Jar Cap.
Made by the White Crown Fruit Jar


Made by the White Crown Fruit Jar
Company. Louisville, Ky.
Zinc caps should not be used on pre-
serving jars, as the acids Of the fruit
corrode the inside and form compounds
which are poisonous and disease breed
ing. The White Crown Cap is simple
in construction, is easily kept sanitary
and does not permit the contents of the
jar to come into contact with any
metal. 1t consists of an opal glass ton
with tight-ftted rubber ring border
ing the edge and a metal band that
screws on to the jar. This cap when
properly applied makes perfect seal
and prevents the entrance of air. 1t
is simple to open jars having these
caps, and since no deterioration takes
place the caps can be used year after
year. Price 35 cents per dozen.
