lard can, tin pail or any utensil which
has a fitted cover. A rack made Of
strips of board, lath or wire netting
is required to raise the Jars at least
one inch from the boiler. Handles
at the ends Of the rack are desirable.
Excellent wire racks shaped to fit
wash boilers cost about SO.
In cold pack canning. the jars are
filed with cold uncooked food and
syrup (for fruit) or salt and water
(for vegetables). Then the tops and
rubbers are adjusted and partly tight
ened, the jars are set on the rack in
| the boiler, which is filled with cold
water to within an inch of the tops
Of the jars. Next the lid of the boil
err is adjusted. It Is a good plan to
make the lid fit tightly by placing a
fold or two or sterilized cotton cloth
beneath it. The food is then steril-
ICED by boiling, ranging from 16 min
utes for berries to $50 minutes for
sweet corn.
After sterilization, the covers are
frightened. Careful housewives US
ually invert the cans to cool. Some
cover the edges of the rubbers and
tops with melted parrafin and wrap
the Jars in paper before storing.
The advantages Of the cold pack
method over the old fashioned open
kettle method are it is adapted to all
fruits and vegetables: it produces a
more uniform product with a better
color, better flavor and better shape:
and it saves time and labor, n is
therefore a genuine economy.

OF particular appeal among the

work from the school for the blind at

the work that Is in the collection
would make one think, without any
question, that not only very deft
hands. but keen eyes had been en-
ployed in acquiring such excellent re-
suits, but every article entered has
been lone by a blind student at the

The exhibit is made up chiefly of
baskets-big and little, and of vari-
Gus attractive shapes. designs and col
ors, this weaving apparently being
work at which these ambitious young
men and women are most adept.
There are. entries of exquisite need

at Riddle, which is center of another ex

the Cow creek valley, tributary to the

How Douglas County
Prune Growers Prosper
(Roseburo Reviewl

According to Mr.. Jackson, his COM
pany handled 3,s0O,OO0 pounds of prunes
last year, but this season will pack only
2,S5O,O0O pounds. cat the present time
his company has stored in the packing
house IN North Roseburg 2,500, ,0O9
pounds of the fruit, some of which is
already packed ready for shipment.
while great deal is being processed as
rapidly as the SO employees engaged
there can handle the business. This com
pany also conducts packing plant At
Myrtle Creek, and has there at the pres
cnt something like 100000 pounds Of
prunes either packed or being prepared
for packing. This is about 200, 900
pounds short of the buDiness handled at
the latter plant last season. The com
pany has paid, this season, all the wav
from seven and quarter cents to nine
and three-fourth cents per pound, net
to the growers. They employ so won-
en- ard So men in these plants. and
these workers are receiving salaries
ranging from $3.50 to $3.50 per dav
for the women packers, while $3.50 a
day is the least sum paid any of the men
employed in this line of industry. The
pay roll for this work totals $500 per
week. The Drager company expects to
ship about 65 car loads of prunes to
eastern and foreign markets, and this
is thought to be probably 5al
per cent of the total output of the or
ehards this season. Shipments will be
made at once, among other destinations
to Chicago, Boston, New York, Milwau-
kee, Albany, N. Y, and London, Eng
land. The largest individual check for
1917 prunes had value of $2I 600 and |
was issued Friday to the fortunate

County Accent Discusses
"The Lime Question

In view of the fact that the press is
keeping before the people Of the state
the purpose and value Of lime and that
various lime companies have already
or will in the near future send sales
men into Marion county for the pur-
pose of selling their products. The
county agent has collected such data
as is applicable to Marion county and
is available in so short time.
We find that ninety per cent of the
farmers in the county are interested
in the use of lime, forty percent are
interested to the extent of using it if
it can be obtained at a suitable price.
Many are already buying lime at pric-
es ranging from $4.75 to $l5 per ton.
This in view of the fact that in Ma
rion county, we do not know how much
lime is needed per acre, we do not
know what soils will respond sufficient
ly to the use of lime to make it worth
while and what is more important we
do not know how much we can afford
to pay and still obtain profit on our
investment.
The following quotations from out
side sources will serve to show the
standing of this question in the state.
5. B. Hall, county agent for Multno-
nah county, states, "Our extensive
trials of last year which have extend
ed over this year have given results
to justify the present price only in one
community. In some sections of the
county practically no results were oh
tanned while i'll other soils very slight
results were secured.'' Professor H. d.
Scudder, chief of the division of the
soils in farm management, states, "Of
course as soon as the state operated
plant is producing the goods, which we
hope will be early in the spring, the
ground limestone should be obtained at
a considerably cheaper rate we hope,
hence the use of agricultural lime at
this time should be more in the way of
trials to prepare for the day when
cheaper lime will be available. Ger
tainly it would be worth while it seems
to me for you to plan a number of
on half acre or acre
strips on representative farms in your
county for the coming year" Profess
sor A. B. Cordely, dean and director of
The experiment station, states, that
while he hopes the state lime board
will be able to- get its plant in opera
ion shortly after the first of the year.
ne is inclined to believe that it will
lot be able to supply all the demand
,or some time.
Those communities interested in the
lse of lime would do well to get to-
tether and with the county agent, plan
nut definite systematic program in
with the use of lime.

County Agricultural Agent.

Sherwood, furniture dealer from Rain
ier. He said the Oregon dealers prefer
tn, made-in- Oregon goods, but they must
sell what the public demands. In illus
tration of this he stated
When my partner and myself start
ed in busines at Rainier we stocked up
with Made-in-Oregon goods. Among
them were some ranges. But l couldn t
sell those stoves. Customers would come
in and ask if l had such and such a
range. No. 1 would say, 'but we have
an Oregon-made range that is SUPERIOR
and it was too.
81 want the other range would
answer the buyer. Il we been reading
about it now for some time.'
"Now, gentlemen, we found that we
were up against something very real.
So we bought out our competitor and
since then have been giving the public
what it wants, which are the advertised
6 ods. The trouble is that the people
don't know your goods. You must ad-
vertise. When | started in business 20
per cent of our stock was of Oregon
manufacture. Now we carry scarcely 80
per cent. My experience has been the
experience of every other small town
dealer. We want to sell your goods. We
like them, but we cannot until you get
behind us with advertising. The public,
doesn t buy for sentimental
reasons. 1t buys what it considers the
best, and in these days the way to show
them is to advertiser
That Sherwood s statement fell on
fertile ground was indicated by the ap-
plause he received, coupled with the
general trend of remarks made by var
ious speakers of the evening. The gen
eral opinion expressed was that Oregon.
stand a good chance of
their home markets and that
the present is the opportune time to
strike out and win.
That this idea is becoming more and
more generally accepted. is shown by
he fact that several prominent manu-
facturers of Oregon few weeks ago
began advertising their wares IN The
Review and a number of other live pa
Ders throughout the state 1t has been
earned that people demand the goods
hey read about and become familiar
With. Hence advertising regularly be-
ZONES all the more effective and profit
lble to the manufacturer and dealer. It

irving 100 per cent publicity to get
