HOME CANNING METHOD.

Carning fruits and vegetables in the home by the one period cold-pack method is relatively simple process and can be done with ordinary kitchen equipment and with comparatively little labor. Much of the surplus of the home garden can be saved for winter use by this canning method, which is fully described in bulletin issued by the United States Department of Agri. culture, Farmers Bulletin S39, Home Canning by the One-Period Cold-Pack Method. This bulletin is of special interest and value to all housewives, canning clubs, societies, or persons interested in conserving the food sup. ply of the Nation. 1t may be had on application to the United States De- partment of Agriculture.
 The bulletin contains very explicit directions fer canning practically all of the common garden vegetables. in. cluding tomatoes, peppers, sweet pep pers, pumpkin, squash, sweet corn, field corn, beans, peas, and root vege- tables, also various combinations of vegetables. It also includes canning directions for soft fruits and berries, and hard fruits, as apples, pears, or quinces Directions for the canning of camp rations, meats and soups are given in detail.
 Each step in the canning process by the one. period cold-pack method Is carefully outlined from the preparation of the equipment and the raw ma terials to the storing of the canned products. special time. table showing how long fruits, vegetables, soups, and meats should be scalded, blanched, or sterilized, is of particular value to the housewife. Various types of homemade and comm ercial canning outfits are described.

NEW HAVEN FUEL ECONOMY.

One of the most important products in the United States today, and one that will determine to a great extent the effectiveness of the country and the Allies in the war against Germany from now on is the coal supply.
 Partly to preserve the coal supply, or rather the effective distribution of the coal supply, the Railroad War Board recommended some time ago that the railways of the couI try elimi- nate such trains from thsir schedules as it would be possible to do without too great inconvenience to the public. ks result of this recommendation the New Haven Railroad decided upon the elimination of 199 passenger trains.
 The elimination of these 199 trains means. according to figures compiled by the Operating Department of the New Haven, savings each week day of 335 tons of coal, and saving oD Sundays of IA tons. This is weekly saving of 2.054 tons and an annual saving of 106. .82S tons.
 There is no way of course of figuring the average amount of coal used by the poor during winter. Two tons of coal. however, will carry family of five persons long way and on this hasis nearly 270, 900 persons could be Kept warm during the coming winter by the saving effected by the New Haven in the elimination of these trains.

DANBURY SUMMER SCHOOL.

PATKIA THROWN OVERBOARD.

Patria Charming, the heroine of the patriotic serial romance "Patria" is thrown overheard from a Fall River liner in Double Crossed", the 4th episode to be shown at the town hall Saturday night. Mrs Vernon Castle plays the leading role in his inter national serial, which is releasted by Pathe.
 She is supported by an all-star cast, including Milton Stills, Warner Olend, George Majaroni, and Dorothy G1en.
 Baron Huroki, a secret agent plotting with deLima, against the United States, having failed in his attempt to steal the $1Oo, ,OOO,OOO Preparedness Fund founded by Patria Charming s forefathers. next directs his attention to Fatria herself. By destroying her he hopes to obtain possession of the millions and full control of the inn mense munitions plants she has ill. herited. He learns that Elaine, popu- lar dancer appearing ill the Midnight Frolic" is the exact double of Patria and he conceives the idea of doing away with the latter and substit tuting the dancer in her place.
 . One event follows another until that night on a Fall River Line boat, when Patria is on deck enjoying the moon light, she is thrown overheard by Huroki's hirelings. Elaine slips into Patria's stateroom where Fanny, trembling with fear awaits her, and the nurse gives the alarm that her charge has escaped and jumped over board. Patria seems doomed, but at the last moment Fanny throws life pre- server after her which Patria slips over her shoulders.

A NATIOr AL "RAG" CAMPAIGN

In civil war days an appeal was sent to every state in the union by the sani- tary war relief committee for old linen and cotton with which to make surgi. cal dressings and binders for use in military hospitals. At that time gauge and absorbent cotton were not ill use, so the women of 50 years ago made dressings for the wounded men at the front from linen and cotton materials. We all know how general the response was to this appeal old chests were ran. sacked, drawers, trunks and clostes were searched and treasures long hid den were willingly sacrificed to supply tie demand.
 Today the orders in Europe for gauge and cotton are so gigantic that the fac. tories there are unable to fill them, so again the women of America are ren. dering similar service to the wounded in Europe. They are appealing to the public for the material to manufacture dressings for use Tn the hospitals abroad. Many of the military, .emer- gency and field hospitals are without even the barest necessities for caring for wounded men, and surgeons and nurses are appealing from every coun- try in the war zone for surgical dress ings to save their lives.
 We want 5, 900 900 surgical dressings now and as piece of goods only 5x7 inches. ill an otherwise ragged article, will make dressing for some poor lad, it is hoped that scraps of linen or cotton packed away in old attics, sheets, pillow cases, table cloths, nap- kins, towels, furniture covers, every thing old, anything new will be con. tributed to the surgical dressings com- mittee, 39 II West 36th street. Materi- als should be clean and carefully folded. Dressings will be sterilized be- fore being shipped to Europe.
 This committee is one of the many activities of the vacation war relief committee which has already opened up free bureau and work room where garments are being made for the European hospitals and war refugees.
