VEGETABLES MIGHT
BE SALTED DOWN
They Would Help Greatly Toward
Building Up the Food Reserve--Veg-
etables Put Up as Directed viii
Keep Their Crispness and Color.

w mere tHeIe IS Dig ihmiiy 10 De leu
through the winter and a rush Of sum
mer work, the surplus of vegetables
might well be sailed down. The process
is exceedingly simple and the only equip
ment needed are good water tight kegs.
While sailed vegetables may not equal
fresh in quality, they help materially to
build up the food reserves and, when
they are well cooked and seasoned, the
flavor, though different from that Of
fresh vegetables, is good. Vegetables put
up as directed will keep their crispness
and color,
Directions.
Gather vegetables when in the best
condition and pack while they are crisp
and tender. Cover top with grape leaves,
chard or horse radish.
Weight with a clean stone resting on
an inverted plate, 20 not allow molds
to form, and keep vegetables covered
with brine
When all bubbling has ceased about a
week after packing, cover the surface Of
the brine with cottonseed oil or melted
paraffin. Store in cool place and ex-
anime once or twice week for month,
For the brine allow one and two-thirds
cups of salt to one gallon Of water. This
is 10 per cent salt solution.
For a salt -and.viEegar solution allow
three fourths cup vinegar to one gallon
Of above solution.
Peppers.
Select medium large, plump, green pep.
pers. Remove stem and enough Of the
tops to remove seeds. Follow direc-
lions above, using the salt -and-yinegar
solution. When taken from the brine,
peppers should be firm, crisp, Of good col
or, and spicy to astringent in taste.
Green Tomatoes.
Sailed green tomatoes may be made
into tomato stew, stuffed tomatoes,
Dreaded tomatoes, salad and pie or con
verted into mincemeat and chutney.
Choose well-deyeloped green tomatoes
and pack in salt solution. Green to-
matoes packed in salt-and vinegar solu.
tion are good for salads and relishes.
| When taken from the brine the green
tomatoes will be slightly diseolored but
firm and of good quality. Soak in cold
water for two hours before using.
Ripe Tomatoes.
Select medium-sized ripe tomatoes
| free from cracks or bruises and pack IN
brine solution. Follow directions and
your tomatoes will be firm and Of good
color when removed from either the
brine or the salt.and-yinegar solution.
Ripe tomatoes preserved in the salt
solution generally require soaking fol
two hours before being used, After thi.
| soaking the skins slip off easily, and
the tomatoes can be used as though
fresh. For soups or scalloped or casserole
dishes, soaking for one hour is usually
sufficient, for the excess salt seasons
the other ingredients.
Ripe tomatoes preserved in the salt
and-vinegar solution require soaking fol
only about thirty minutes When uset
in combination with fresh vegetables
they need not be soaked at all Tit
skins slip of easily, and the flesh il
firm. The color and the flavor Of tn,
tomatoes are practically no different
from those of fresh tomatoes

THRIFT STAMPS

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Feb. 4. - A
warning against the cashing of war
savings stamps by individuals has
been issued by the War-Savings Com
mittee for Indiana, of which J. D. DIV
er of this city, is state director. The
warning follows:
Information has come to the war
savings committee for Indiana that in
certain city saloon keeper cashed
war-savings stamps in payment for
drinks.
THE rules of the Treasury depart,
ment demand these war-savingS
stamps shall be attached to the GER
tificate. On the certificate the owners
name should be written. They are not
transferable, and If placed in the
possession of another than the original
owner. the person getting them could
obtain the money only by forging the
real owners name.
THE war-savings stamps are intend
ed as means for saving. If it be-
comes necessary for the owner to use
his savings which he has invested in
these stamps. the government has pro-
yided that they may be cashed by the
owner at any postoffice tunless they
have been registered, In which case
then at the postoffice of registration)
on ten days notice. The only excep
ton to this rule is in the case of death
or disability of the owner, or in the
case of children, when the state law
governs"
