Expert Advice on Food Gardens
Daily Hints on How to Make Back Yards Profitable

The usual soup vegetables are cab
bage, Irish potatoes, tomatoes, carrots,
turnips, lima beans, sweet corn, onions
and celery. These may be placed in the
cans in any desired proportions, either
cooked or uncooked. Cooking shrinks
the vegetables and therefore fewer cans
are needed to hold larger amount of
vegetables.
One particular precautlon must be
needed, SAYS the bulletin, and that IS
whether cooked or uncooked, the length
of time for sterilizing is the same as
for the vegetables needing the longest
period of sterilization. For instance if
corn is in the mixture, then sterilization
must be done the same rs for corn. II
only vegetables of short period sterili-
zation are used, then q short period of
sterilization is sufficient. If meat is
added, then the long period sterilization
necessary for meat must be given.
The National Emergency Food Garden
commission has just published a new
manual on storage of vegetables. ANY
one may obtain one of these manuals
by sending 2-cent stamp to pay post
