which drives the rear wheels at diff.
ferent speeds while turning corners
and at the same speed while the car
Is going straight ahead
The chan ge-speed gear, commonly
called the transmission. is to afford
different speeds 50 that one can run
the car slowly, as for starting, or ra-
pidly in what IS called high gear.
This gear set Is also used to reverse
movement Of the car. An important
feature is the neutral position. AS is
we'll known, the automobile engine
must be started by outside power,
either electrically or otherwise, and
1t is important that the car should not
move while engine is being cranked.
Again, it is frequently necessary to
run the engine while the car stands
still. The neutral position of gears
permits this.

CANNED FOODS.

Many women are wondering why
1t is that some of the foods they so
carefully canned this summer are
perfect and others Just the opposite.
1t makes them wonder how the COM
mercial Gamer managed to have
good luck" every time.
About one hundred years ago the
French made the first successful ex-
periments in canning.
The French government offered q
prize OF $4,000 francs for the best
method OF preserving fruits, vege-
tables and ''other elementary ar
ticles'' without picking or dessica-
ton.
In 1910 the prize was awarded to
NJ. Nichols Appert, who presented to
copy, in book form Of his method"
for the benefit of the world in gem
eral.
M. Appert was excelIently equipped
for this work, for he had about fifty
years experience in dealing with the
various lines of foods with which he
made his experiments.
While this Is a French invention
and not an accidental discovery, the
final developments during the last
century are due primarily to Amer
leans. AS 1T is today, canning is a
successful American industry.
The National Food Producers have
the very best equipment and scien-
tific management. Their factories are
sanitary in every respect and located
wherever the food is produced in the
greatest quantity and the best quail
ity. The vegetables and fruits are
picked and canned the same day.
In many cases the national pro-
Queer furnishes the seed to the grow
ers. Every precaution is taken to
insure success. The housewife in her
home canning lacks the conveniences
OF the factory and also the expert
skill OF trained canning experts,
therefore, she is liable to spoil prod
ucts and thereby add to the food
waste which we all wish to avoid.
The many "war gardens" have fur
nished us an ample supply OF vege-
tables and we should exercise great
care in preparing them for future
use. We should be sure to have all
materials and utensils sterile and
seals perfect.
Sanitary precautions and perfect
sealing are necessary for success
These two elements together with
efficient machinery and expert work.
men insure the perfect products OF
the national food producers.

When using molasses and soda with
the heavier flours use some baking

require more leavening.
To extend meat flavor use cereal
foods other than wheat with small
amount Of meat. A very small
amount OF extract Of beef carries the
meat flavor through a large dish.

There are several things that can

DRY ROT IN STORED

The dry rot in potatoes attacks
the tubers while in storage. It starts
first where the potato is cut or
bruised, turning the affected part OF
the tuber a dark color as deep as 1t
extends and shrivels it so that the
skin sinks in. Often times a white
cottony mass appears over the dis
eased spot. The rot keeps on spread
ing till in a few weeks the tuber be-
comes dry, wrinkled, shrunken and
dark colored with practically no
weight. The rot develops faster when
it is warm than when the storage
