requirements are that the cooker
should be at least thirteen to
fourteen inches deep, that it
should be big enough to hold
several jars at once, and that
it should be able to be covered
so as to hold the heat. A tin
or galvanized water pail, lard
can, or coffee can, a kettle which
is deep and large enough, or a
clean wash boiler may be used
as homemade cooker.
The jars must not rest direct

too hot or the jars break. jar
holders may be bought at the
store, or a false bottom of lath,
wire, or perforated board or tin
may be made which will hold
the cans or jars an inch or so
above the bottom of the cooker.
The false bottom for the cook
er, if made in the shape of a
tray with sides, will make it
easier to lift the jars from the
boiling water after the food is
cooked. The water in the cook
er should come one inch above
the tallest jar.
Two Rules.
Two rules to be observed with
any outfit are: Do not begin to
count time until the water is
boiling and bubbling hard all
over the top, and keep the wa
ter going at a lively boil until
the time is up.
When the canned foods are
taken from the boiling water,
they must be protected from
drafts which might break the
jars. The rubbers must be ex-

known as the double shock treat
ment before cooking.
The scalded or blanched fruits
or vegetables should be packed
carefully in the cans or jars.
Use Great Care.
Glass jars should be hot, so
there will be no danger of break

water later and so they will not

for vegetables with the excep-
ton of tomatoes) and hot wa
ter or syrup for fruits. It is
against the law to add water to
tomatoes if they are to be sold.
Jars do not need to be full in
order to keep.
In placing the rubber and COW
| er on the jar, good rubber
should be used and it should lie
fat and fit closely to the jar.
Glass jars should not be sealed.
The cover should be turned down
until it catches and then turned
back a quarter of an inch. Ii
| vacuum sealed jars are used,
the cover may be put on and the
spring put in place. The spring
will yield enough to allow the
steam to escape. If glass top
jars with patent wire snap are
used, the cover should be put
in place, the. wire put over the
top, and the clamp left up. The
cover on a glass jar must not
be tight while the product is
being cooked. If tin cans are
| used, the cans may be sealed
tight. The tin will yield enough
to allow for expansion during
cooking, and as the contents
cool the can will return to its
original shape.
| Time Varies.
The real cooking is done in
the jar and the time required
varies with the kind of product
and the kind of cooker used

Cans and Jars to
Save the Food

We all know that the world
faces hunger and we all know
that great quantities Of fruits
and vegetables go to waste in
this country every year. These
facts are common knwoledge,
but it is time to get down to
business and change them. The
charge that America wastes
enough to live on must not be
made this year.
Tin cans and glass jars will
go far toward saving the day
if they are given the proper
show in the gardens and or
chards of this country. The
twenty per cent of sweet pota-
toes that are lost by decay in
the southern states every year
and the probably equal proper
tion of most of the other vege-
tables that go to waste both in
the north and the south can be
saved. The seventy per cent,
or more, of the unsprayed fruit
crop which it is estimated is
fed to pigs or allowed to rot on
the ground can be saved for
food if cans and jars are called
into action.
Cold Pack Method.
Cold pack canning is the meth
cd by which the cans and jars
can be utilized to prevent fam
inc. This method, fortunately,
has already been explained by
the Government and the agri-
cultural extension departments
of private organizations until it
is widely known among the peo-
pie. By this method it is pos
sible for anyone to cook any
food product at home in one
process and to know that it will
keep. Cold pack canning means
simply packing the product un-
cooked and cooking it in the
closed jar.
The steps in saving food by
cold pack canning may be ex-
planned briefly as follows: The
fruit and vegetables are washed
and trimmed, just as though
they were going to be cooked
for food in the ordinary way.
They are then scalded or blanch-
ed, depending on the variety of
| the product. Such foods as ber-
ries, plums, grapes and cherries
are scalded, while peaches are
kept in boiling water from one
/ to two minutes, cabbage or
sauerkraut from six to fifteen
minutes, beans, peas or hominy
4 five minutes, corn, on the cob
or off, five to eight minutes, etc,
Blanching simply means keep
/ ing the product in boiling wa
ter longer than would be neces-
sary for scalding it. All prod
ucts before they are canned by
the cold pack method must be
scalded or blanched to get rid
of the Objectionable acids and
bitter favors, to shrink the prod
uct, and to get other results
which are necessary.
As soon as the product is
scalded or blanched, it is plunged
lat once into cold water and TAX
