this evening. Is one of the minor holi.
days OF the Jewish calendar. II com.

Jews OF Persia from the power Of Ha.

Hannah had cast lots thence the name
'PGrim' which means LOTS to de.

for the massacre OF all the Jews in
Persia. Mordecai and his niece Es-
Tier becoming aware or the plot, sue
ceeded in deposing Hannah and in oh
tanning royal permission for. the Jews
to attack and master their enemies on
the 18th and I4th OF Adar. The de-
liverancc OF the Jews from the threat
of humiliation and their victory over
Their enemies have ever after been
celebrated 40 the Feast Of Purlm.
The Feast of Purim" never attain
cd as high a degree Of spiritual infln-

walls. The usual Psalms of praise
read on ether holidays are omitted on
Purim. The che characteristic or the
Parim ritual is the reading of the
Book OF Esther On the evening of the
thirteenth day of Adar
As a felix celebration. Purim made
up for whatever influence 1t may nave

worn by old and young; Purim plays
were given reenacting the drama OF
Esther and Hannah In addition to

HlIMOR LI6HTEIS
LIFE At FRONT

Humor, the savior of many situa-
tons. is all that keeps many from ge-

awful scenes they are continually
called to face on the tattlefields of
Europe. according to DR.. D. Sn3yley OF
the British Army Medical Corps, who
is taking short rest in Hawaii after
20 months of active service in the
field hospitals. She also tells of some
amusing incidents under the most
trying circumstances.
1t, is quite common for an omnibus
full OF hale and hearty young recruits
going cut to the front to fill up the
gaps III the line to meet an ambulance
full of stricken and dying men coming
back. Often the latter cry out with
all the life that yet fingers in them,
Are we down-hearted?' And quickly
for the trenches, NO. Down With the

In q spirit of gaiety an officer had
painted sign over his dug-out, 'pThe

IL effects an air-tight seal. Oils, such
as cottonseed oil or the tasteless
liquid petroleum, may also be used
for this purpose. AS a measure of
safety with crooks, it is advisable to
cover the top with cloth soaked in
melted paraffin. Put the cover in
place before the paraffin hardens.
The second method, which may be
used with barrels or kegs, is to pack
the container as full as possible and
then replace the head. In using this
method for fermentation of beets,
cucumbers, or string beans, add the
board and weights as described above
and allow to stand for "a hours be-
fore heading. During this period
most of the gas first formed escapes
and the container then may be head
ed up tight, first removing the board
and weights. Then bore an inch hole
in the head and fill the barrel with
brine. allowing no air space. Allow
more brine. if possible and plug the
vent tight. If the barrel does not
leak. fermented products put up in
this manner will keep indefinitely.
After sealing with paraffin the
containers should be set where they
will not be disturbed until the con
tents are to be used. Any attempt to
remove them from one place to an
other may break the paraffin seal
and necessitate resealng. If the
containers are not opened until cold
winter weather. the vegetables
should keep without spoilage until
they are used up. If opened in warm
weather they are likely to spoil quite
rapidly unless the paraffin is re-
heated and the container resealed
Immediately. In the case of cucum-
bers and chayotes. it is preferable
if enough material is available, to
use the method of packing in kegs or
barrels as described above.
Only those vegetables which can
not be kept by storing or early ones
that are not available later in the
season, should be preserved. Late
beets, for example. can be better kept
in the cellar.
The method of putting up cabbage
by fermentation has a number of ad-
over the present process of
making sauerkraut and will be de-
scribed in later article
A circular describing the fer
mentation method is now available
for distribution from the States Re-
lation Service of the Departm ent of

To PRESERVE VEGETABLES
BY FERMENTATION

Washington, ID. C.--The fer
mentaton method widely used
abroad in preserving string beans,
beets, cabbage. cucumbers and other
succulent garden crops, is described
in a notice just issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Sauerkraut and pickles put up in
this way are fairly we'll known in
this country, but paratiyely few
persons have thought of trying it as
household measure for preserving
these and other vegetables. Those
who like acid foods and who have
too few canning containers to hold
their surplus products may find this
method useful. The following de-
scription of this method of ferment-
ing vegetables is prepared by one of
the psychologists in the Bureau of
Chemistry who has been experiment.
ing with this process.
The vegetables are not cook ed, but
are put down in salt brine in any
non-metal water-tight container and
are sealed up with paraffin and are
otherwise made air-tight. Under
this treatment Tactic acid will de-
yelop and this acid, the value of
which as food has been recognized,
acts as Il preseryative. Whether
Americans will develop a taste for
such fermented foods highly priced
in Europe. is open to question but
the investigator believes that many
will find the process well worth
trying.

TO Preserve Cucum6ers

To Preserve Cucum6ers
Wash the fruit if necessary and
pack into a clean. water-tight bar
rel, key, or crock On the bottom of
the barrel place layer of dill weed
and handful of mixed spice. Add
another layer of dill and another
handful of mixed spice when the bar
rel is half full and when almost full
add a third layer. If "a keg or crock
is used, the amount of dill and spice
can be reduced in proportion to the
size OF the receptacle. When the con-
tainer has been filled within q few
inches of the top, add layer of COW
ering material--beet tops or grape
about an inch thick. If any
spoilage should occur on the surface,
this layer will protect the vegetables
beneath. Press down with a clean
board weighted with bricks or stone.
Do not use limestone or sandstone.
Make brine by adding one pound
OF salt TO 10 quarts of water. To
each 10 quarts of brine so made add
two-thirds of quart of vinegar. The
is used primarily to keep
down the growth of injurious bac-
terra until the Tactic acid ferment
starts, but it also adds to the flavor.
Add sufficient brine to cover the ma
terial and allow to stand "a hours.
Then make air-tight, as described
below. The time necessary for com
plete fermentation to occur depends
upon the temperature. In warm
place only five days To a week may
be necessary; in a cool cellar three
to four weeks.
Beets and String Beans
The strings should be removed
from string beans before they are
put up. Beets, of course, require
careful washing to remove all dirt
before brining. If it is desired, when
finally the beets or string beans are
to be eaten, to wash out the brine
and serve them as fresh vegetables,
the addition of spice when they are
put mp is not necessary. Proceed as
with cucumbers.
Make Containers Air-tight
There always will be more or less
bubbling and foaming of the brine
during the first stages of fermenta-
ton. After this ceases thin film
will appear which will spread rapidly
over the whole surface and develop
quickly into heavy, folded men,
brane. This scum is a growth of
yeast-like organisms which feed up
on the acid formed by fermentation.
II allowed TO grow undisturbed il
VIII eventually destroy all the acid
and the fermented material will
spoil. To prevent this scum from
forming il is necessary to exclude
the air from the surface of the brine.
This should be done by either of two
methods. "a hours after the veget-
ables have been packed.
Perhaps the best method is to
cover the surface-over tho board
and around the weight-with very
hot melted paraffin. Ii the paraffin
is sufficiently hot to make the brine
boil when poured upon it, the parf-
