A serious shortage of preserving
jars and cans is threatened.
Glass especially wide-neck-
ed ones-are useful for putting up
fruits, jellies, and preserves.
Put up fruit juices in ordinary bot
ties.
Reserve regular preserving jars and
cans for canning vegetables, soups,
and meats.-U. S. Department of Ag-

The homecoming specialists of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture urge
every housekeeper to save bottles-es-
pecially wide-necked ones-for put
sing up fruits, preserves, jellies, jams
and fruit juices. Saving of bottles is
highly important, they say, as there
threatens to be a serious shortage Of
regular jars and preserving cans this
season.
The fruit products named, if seal
ed with corks and parafin, can be kept
perfectly in these makeshift contain
ers JeIlies, jams, and preserves can
be kept even in ordinary drinking
glasses, by the use of paper and para
fin. Fruit juices should be packed il
ordinary small-necked bottles.
Vegetables, soups and meats, on the
other hand, to keep must be sealed by
the usual fruit-jar or tin-can packing
methods. Reserve regular containers
for foods that can not be packed in
bottles
The specialists are also urging all
members of canning clubs and others
not only to can products, but to dry
and evaporate all such products as ap-
pies, pumpkin and squash They ad-
wise strongly that is containers are
scarce locally, those in stock should
be used to preserve perishable prod
ucts which have the highest nutritive
value. Nothing should be packed in
jars or cans which can be conserved
effectively in other ways.
Candy containers or other glass
jars with screw tops or glass shoppers

with cork or paper and paraffin.

About 80 members of the Order of
the Eastern Star attended the regular
meeting of Rainbow Chapter at the
Masonic Temple Wednesday night
After the regular work of the Chapter
was closed Ira Purdy was called into
the lodge room and seated near the
east, when the Worthy Patron, Frank
W. Calkins, addressed him with a few
preliminary remarks in honor of the
occasion and the pleasure that it gave
him, as an officer of Rainbow Chapter,
to present him with $500 gold piece
as a slight token from the lodge in
honor Of his 98th birthday. Mr.. Pur-
dy was so overcome by the kind words
rendered by Mr. Calkins, that he was
unable to respond. Everybody knew
that the evidence of good will indicat-
ed by the small gift presented to Mr.
Purdy was fully appreciated by the
recipient. His birthday has been hon
ored by this organization for the past
10 years annually. After the lodge
was closed Mr. and Mrs. Warren Fish
er and Miss Marian Atwood each rem
dered solos that were greatly appre-
ciated by the audience after which de-
licious refreshments were served and
a large birthday cake was in evidence
as token of remembrance bv the

who attended the session and return
ed home the same evening. All pres
