the extraordinary efforts everywhere
In America to increase production.
In every community in the country
food Is being produced in back yards
and vacant lots that never before were
used for this purpose. Last year, ac-
cording to the United States secretary
of agriculture, the home-garden move
ment was estimated to have stimu-
lated the planting Of from two hun
dred to three hundred per cent more
gardens than ever before had pro-
duced food in the United States. This
year, it is expected, even last years
record will be surpassed. Every fam
lily with available ground has been
urged to plant and cultivate home
garden.

you need, use them to the utmost to
lessen your demand for other food

Special Considerations.

A single period of processing In the
water bath has been found generally
satisfactory for the canning Of fruits
and such acid vegetables as tomatoes.
Lima beans, peas, corn and certain
other vegetables having high protein
content, or which, because of their
thick consistency, do not allow the
heat to penetrate to the center Of the
can readily, are more difficult to ster.
ilize, and hence, where the hot-water
bath Is used, either by the singleton.
tinuous or by the intermittent process,
a small percentage Of loss by spoilage
may be expected. However, scrupu'
lous care in the selection, preparation
and processing Of these products will
reduce this loss to minimum.
A single-period processing with
steam under pressure of 10 to IL
pounds, in pressure Gamer or cooker,
Is strongly recommended for the han.
ding of such products, for by It's use
loss due to insufficient sterilization
may be largely eliminated.

Intermittent Boiling.

For the benefit Of those to whom
the intermittent boiling or processing
may not be familiar, 1t may be ex-
planned that this consists merely Of
placing the cans or Jars of material to
be treated in the boiler or Gamer, and
boiling for the required length of time
on each of three successive days. By
many this Is considered a safer pro-
cedure than the use Of a single long
period Of boiling.
If you employ this method, when the
Jars are being given the second and
third boiling treatments, you should
loosen the clamps or unscrew the lids
slightly just before you place them
again in the boiling water. Tighten
covers at the end Of each boiling. AS
the seal of the Jars Is loosened slight
ly during each boiling, the metal
capped Jars, sometimes called "her-
metic" Jars, are not suited to inter-
mittent work. Jars with self-sealing
wire-clamped tops are most satlsfac-
tory to use In intermittent canning
Save your screw-top jars for packing
fruits and tomatoes, which require but
one period Of boiling In a water-bath
outfit.

CONSERVE SURPLUS
FOOD.

Increased planting Of vege-
tables this year almost certainly
will mean an unprecedented
yield of fresh vegetables in the
spring and summer.
This will mean plentiful sup
plies for summer tables and a
large surplus.
This surplus, to be useful to
America, must be conserved.
1t must be canned, dried,
brined, or stored in the homes
of America.
Home-conserved food means
that the home will be more
nearly self-sustaining and that
the burden on transportation
will be Aghtened.
Women who have never
canned should now learn how;
women who know how should
prepare to do more. - United

BILL TO PUNISH
SEDITIOUS TALK
BEFORE SENATE
CBy Associated press.)

Washington, April S.-Demands for
laws to punish disloyal utterance
were renewed in the senate today
when the sedition bill was taken up
for debate.
Senator Borah. Of Idaho. said that
il the measure would prohibit a free
discussion Of the efficiency or ineffi-
cheney of any department or official
or the wisdom or unWdsdom of any
official he would oppose it. Senator
Sherman said the language of the bill
is sufficiently broad to make any
slight uncomplimeatary reference to
public official an offense.
Senator Sherman said he had heard
more criticism Of the government and
the supreme court at meetings of the
national league Of popular govern
ments than at Socialist meetings on
the lake front in Chicago.
Have you heard criticisms Of the
supreme court in this chamber" ask
ed Senator Gallinger, of New Hamp-
shire.
II have" was the reply.
Senator Sherman added that he
could not think of anything more dis
loyal under the bill than articles writ
ten several years ago by George
Creel, chairman Of the committee on
public information, criticising the SUI
preme court. Too many men whose
advice is unsound, Senator Sherman
said, are officials under the present
administration and should not be Civ
en- additional and broad powers. Dis
claiming criticism of tn President,
the Illinois senator said he was free
to attack many of his ministers who
are unpatriotic in times of peace and
wrap themselves in mantle Of war
preparations to conceal the rotten
ness of their carcasses."
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, sup
porting the bill, interrupted to point
out that federal judges and juries,
not administration officials would en-
force the law, and that neither Mr..
Creel nor any of his afiinities" would
have any jurisdiction under 1t.
Senator Gallinger said the bill was
too broad and might be used against
men criticising the President. The
penalties against "contemptuous and
scurrilous" criticism Of the Ameri-
can form of government" he sug
gested, might be improperly applied.
1T has very extreme provisions
