Drying Vegetables

Many fruits and vegetables
can be easily saved for
home use by simple process of
drying. This process has the
advantage of inexpensive con-
tainers and can be stored in a
relatively small space. One
hundred pounds of fresh vege-
tables will average ten pounds
of the dried product.
Vegetables can be dried in an
oven. in trays or racks over the
kitchen stove, in a specially con-
structed dryer and in the sun.
The oven heat is more satisfac-
tory for drying vegetables than
the sun. Corn may be dried in
sun, but the product is a darker
color. Fruits or vegetables
which are dried in the sun
should be put in the oven for 10
or 15 minutes before they are
packed. This finishes the dry
ing and kills all insect eggs.
Carrots. beets, string beans,
peas, okra, cabbage, squash,
corn, and soup mixtures can all
be successfully dried. The pro-
cess in eachis about the same.
Equally as great care should be
given to vegetables for drying
as for canning. They should be
absolutely fresh, young and ten
der and perfectly clean. After
washing and cleaning properly
they are blanched. Blanching
consists of plunging the vegeta-
BILE in boiling water for a short
time. A wire basket or cheese
cloth bag may be used for this.
After the required number of
minutes of blanching, drain well
and remove surface moisture
with towels or by spreading in
the sun for few minutes.
The vegetable is then placed
on the trays in a thin layer. If
drying is done in a cookstove
leave the door ajar. The tenn
perature should be rather low to
prevent scorching. An oven
thermometer is very convenient
for this. Most vegetables
should begin drying at ITO de-
grees F. and be gradually in
creased to 145 degrees F.. and
should be completed in 2 or 3
hours. Occasional stirring is
necessary. Trays for the oven
can be made by using an ordina-
ry biscuit pan over a pan of wa
ter. Driers for the top of the
stove may be easily made. Spe-
,cial instructions can be furnished
for these also directions for
drying each vegetable.
The dried product should be
stored in moisture proof con-
tainers. Tin boxes, cans and
buckets with covers. boxes from
which your breakfast cerals have
been removed, or paraffin dipped
paper sacks make good contain
ers. Keep these in a dry place
and examine occasionally for in
sects. If any appear, spread in
the sun and reheat to a tempera-
ture of 160 degrees F. and re-
store.

How to Double the Returns from
Each Acre in Corn

During the past ten years the
average acre of corn in the South
has yielded, on an average, Is
bushels. We propose here to
show that it is possible this year
to exactly double the returns
from each acre in corn. To do
this, three things must be done.
/. Cultivate shallow and of
ten. Drouth at a critical period
often is responsible for heavy
decreases in corn yields. Drouths
are os course beyond our power
to prevent, but cultivation of the
right kind may largely offset
their evil effects. When we de-
stroy grass and weeds by cult
walton the moisture and plant
food they would have taken OF
course go to the corn crop. Let
us, then, see ito it that these
robbers are never allowed to
grow in our corn fields. Good
cultivation also saves moisture
for the corn crop by preventing
loss through evaporation.
Every farmer should aim to have
a dust blanket or dust mulch
maintained in every corn field.
This is step No. l, and should,
if generally practiced, raise the
average yield not less than five
bushels per acre.
2. Top-dress with nitrate OF
soda or sulphate of ammonia.
We think there is no possible
doubt that the greatest plant
food need of corn, at least in the
South, is nitrogen. Of course
the best way to get this nitrogen
is from the air through legume
crops, but right now we have
many millions of acres that are
sorely in need of nitrogen, and
there is no time to wait for the
legumes. The corn crop needs
it ard needs it Immediately. To
supply this immediate need,
nitrate of soda or sulphate of
ammonia at the rate of 60, 80 or
100 pounds per acre should be
used. This is step No. 2, and
should, on millions of acres of
our thin lands, raise the corn
another five bushels per acre.
3. Plant peas, beans or pea
nuts with all corn. Just as now
adays the farmer who fails to
get a second crop after his small
grain is doing poor work, so the
farmer who fails to grow a le-
gume crop with his corn is fall
ing short of his opportunities for
increasing the feed and plant
food supply. Using any one of
the three crops named will cer-
tainly result in an increased re.
turn from the land that will be
worth at least five bushels of
corn, and probably ten or fifteen
This is step No. 8.
Are you going to do things
that will double the return from
your land, or are you goings to
be content with the usual Is
bushels?- The Progressive Far
