HOW TO CAN
String Beans.

String beans for canning should
be tender and fresh. When the
beans within the pod have grown
to any size canning is more diff
cult and the finished product is of
poorer quality. The Refugee is a
good variety for canning. Use only
well-sorted, small tender beans
Wash and pick over the beans.
String the beans and cut them into
two-inch lengths. Cutting diagon-
ally or ION the bias" gives pretty
product. If desired they can be
canned whole and packed log cabin
fashion in square jars.
After the beans are prepared,
blanch by placing In a cheesecloth
bag in boiling water for from 3 to
S minutes. according to the age and
size of the beans. Blanch only IN
til the pods will bend without
breaking. then plunge the hot beans
into cold salt water Il tablespoon

instant. Drain well, pack quickly
and cover with hot brine (2h

water). Partially seal Jars.

II the intermittent boiling pro-
cess is used, boil for 90 minutes on
the first day. and 60 minutes on the
second and third days. Before each
subsequent boiling the covers must
be lOOsened. and after each boiling
the covers must be securely tight
ened to make sealing complete

If single-period boiling process
is used. place jars in the Gamer and
boil for at least three hours. Seal,

Lima beans are treated the same
as string beans, except that a sea-
soning (one-third level teaspoonful
salt and two-third teaspoonful SUI

Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am
young married woman and asi
happy all except for one thing.
love my husband dearly and l
think he loves me. but he is mean
about his meals He is always
what l make and telling
me what a good cook his mother is.
He likes fish and l don't and won't
smell up the house with ii. He al
so likes fussy desserts and he is
angry if 1 do not have one. What
can l do to make him like my
cooking as well as his mothers?
UNHAPPY WIFE.
A wife should try to please her
husband when she cooks. If your
husband likes desserts l think you
ought to have one for him every
meal if possible. Have a dessert
even If you have to neglect some
thing else Perhaps If you had fish
once in a while you would learn
to cook it without minding the
smell. If you want him to like
your cooking as well as his moth
er's you will have to do all you
can to please his taste.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: My son is
eighteen years old and lately
young girls are phoning to him all
the time. This is a great bother
to me, because when l am baking
or doing my work l do not like TO
be called to the phone by some
silly girl who wants TO talk to
my son. He is Disguised, too, and
doesn't want to talk to them when
he is home. Do you think it would
be rude for me to tell the girls
that l am bothered by their phone
calls and that If my son wants to
talk to them he will phone them
MOTHER.
I think it would be all right TO
tell them. Many mothers are both
cred by the same thing and they
are doing nothing rude or unreas-
enable when they make IL clear to
the girls that their phone calls are
not wanted.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am q
stenographer and sit in the room
with my employer. In this way
see quite a little of him. We
sometimes talk about things that
do not concern work-books, for
instance He is interested in eff
cheney work and so l recommended
a certain book 1 have and gave il
to him to read.
Yesterday his wife came in the
office to see him and she made q
sarcastic remark to me about lend
ing her husband that book. She
said 1t was very thoughtful Of me
1t was her tone Of voice that
didn't like.
Do you think I did anything
wrong in lending him that book?
DOUBTFUL.
1t was all right to lend him the
book. But do not lend him an
other now that you have learned
his wife objects. A stenographei
should be very careful not to make
wife unhappy or jealous. Many
homes have been spoiled because
OF thoughtless girls in the business
world.
