Girls, the fashion censor abroad

You must save your pennies and buy

Tartiniere?
Yes, indeed; no up-to-dats young

one And It isn't for rouge or pow

q gay little eontAiner for bread and
butter.
They are quite the rage IN France
and even in Germany, where rich
folks have them decorated with roses

sedate and businesslfke ones.

VEGETABLE MIXTURES

Attractive and economical vegetable
mixtures to be served in salads, with
omelets, escalloped dishes, and gar
nisheS for meat dishes can be canned
at home. This by-product may be
canned often when small quantities
are left from packing different vege-
tables whole. Any desired combina-
tons may be made. Vegetables ma
turing in the same season should be
used. A good combination for the
spring would be carrots, peas, string
beans and onions. A mixture which
could be made from the fall garden
might consist Of peppers, celery, on
ions and small lima beans. (Beets can
not be used in such mixtures because
they discolOr the entire contents of the
1ar) All these vegetables are pre-
pared separately as for canning and
packed in layers in previously boiled
jars. Each layer should be packed as
tightly as possible before the next is
added. When the jar is filled, cover
with brine (212 ounces of salt to one
gallon of water). Partially seal jars.
Processing with steam under pres
sure Is recommended Process pint
Jars 40 minutes under pressure of ten
pounds. Seal Immediately and cool in

If the intermittent boiling process is
used boil for 80 minutes on the first
day, and 60 minutes on the second
and third days. Before each subse-
quent boiling the covers must be loos-
ened, and after each boiling the COW
ers must be securely frightened to
make sealing complete. Cool, test for

used, place jars in the Gamer and boil
for at least three hours. Seal, cool,

PEAS

Green peas are among the most diff
Gcult vegetables to can ut home. Abb
solute cleanliness, quick work, atten-
ton to every detail, are essentials to
success. Only young and very freshly
gathered peas should be canned. Peas
are best gathered in the early morning
when cool. Work rapidly from the mo-
ment they are gathered. Peas should
not stand after being shelled. Get
them into the previously boiled Jars as
rapidly as possible. Shell and sort,
putting only peas of the same size and
degree of ripeness together. Do not
use hard, mature peas among tender
ones or big peas with very small ones.
Blanching dipping into hot water)
is very important. If well done, 1t pre-

BABY BEETS

The following recipe for canning
baby beets is applicable to carrots.
Only young, tender beets should be
canned TO get high quality product.
The best variety for canning is the
Detroit.
Sort the beets, putting uniform sizes
together. Cut the stems off, but be
careful not to cut off too closely or
break the root. This will cause loss of
Juice, color and flavor. Boil in an en-
ameled pan until three-fourths done,
peel, pack hot in layers in previously
boiled Jars, fitting the second layer into
the spaces left by the first layer and
repeating. Cover with clear hot wa
ter; partially seal the jars and boil
them in water bath for one hour con-
tinuously, counting from the time the
water boils again around the jars.
Do not allow cold water to touch
the beets after they have been cooked.
If beets are packed in tin the cans
used must be inside-aCquered. Beets
rs inch in diameter and over should
be cut or sliced before packing into
jars. When steam-preSSure Gamer
is used, process pints 80 minutes un.
der five pounds steam pressure.-Unit-
ed States Department of Agriculture.
