The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1918-12-31

Because your family is small, you will
undoubtedly open the pint cans first.
This viii leave small empty cans in
which you can recan any leftover fruit
or vegetable you think your family will
tire of before it is used Or you might
carry over bowl of tomatoes or peaches
TO your neighbor when you have TO open
a two-quart can. Some day she viii re-
turn, perhaps, with bowl of corn which
she is not anxious to use at once.
Under no consideration should any
canned fruit or vegetables be earelesslv
left to spoil when so much labor was
spent in canning last summer, and when
there are so many hungry mouths to fill.
Save the spoonfuls. They are worth it.
1t is well to look over the cans on your
cellar shelves frequently to see that
nothing has happened or that no can is
WORKING" Sometimes faulty lid or
rubber will spoil 4 can Of fruit after you
are sure it Us safe for the winter. A lit
tie vigilance on home-canned goods has
saved many can Of fruit in time enough
to have il cooked over.

SILAGE PROBLEM SOLVED.
Experiment with the Utilization Of Stow
er After the Corn Has Been
Husked Successful

Farmers throughout the country arc
much Interested IN a method of provid
ing a cheap wintering ration for cattle
which has been made possible through
experimenting with the utilization ol
corn slower for ensilage, says X. A.
Gortner, member of the American
Chemical society,
Professor Grindley Of the Illinois agri.
cultural experiment station recommends
an ensilage made from the slower after
the corn has been husked and the grain
sold, though ii the ensilage is to be
fed to mich cows the entire corn plant
should be used. In a report to the
American Chemical society, at the an
nua meeting held in Cleveland last
month Professor Grindley submitted
figures showing that the maximum guam
tity of nutrients is not present in the
corn when il is ensiIed at the time usual
ly recommended, j. e., about ten days
before it is ready for shocking, but that
ii should be left until ready TO cut and
shock in order to obtain the maximum
weight OF nutrients per acre.

ing herd. The cost of -wintering an,
imals on corn stoyer silage, plus the
one pound of linseed meal, is seven cents
a day as compared with approximately
twenty-one cents when silage made from
the entire corn plant is used. Less than
80 per cent OF the corn slower is util-
lied when it is pastured in the open and
the feed, siage, does not give as good
nutritional results.
Another advantage in using the corn
stover is in keeping the silos full all OF
the time and having ensilage available
during the late spring and early sum
mer, for if the dry stover is kept under
cover it does not deteriorate to any CON
siderable extent and can be used TO fill
the depleted silos in the spring
Filling the Hos with the chopped stow
er does not differ from the usual meth
DDS with the exception that sufficient
water must be added to produce about
the degree Of moisture ordinarily present
when the green corn plant is used. The
ensilage should be packed we'll in order
to exclude air pockets If these condi-
tions are observed the farmer will find
that the chemist has solved the prob
lem for a cheap oyer-wintering feed and
has also increased the amount Of corn
which could be used for human food.

Don't Waste What You've Canned.

cupful Of chowchow in it, no longer fit to
eat, and one Jelly glass with few spoon
fuls Of jelly left to dry up and be vast.

when every spoonful of food must be put
TO use TO save humanity, not even drop
of jelly can be wasted
The housekeeper argues that she
canned so much fruit and vegetables, she
just couldn't find enough pint cans and
small jelly and jam glasses. Her family
is so small they grow tired of one kind
of chowchow, or sauce or vegetable, be

A happy New Year to you all.

May 1919 be filled with opportunities,

During 1918 the women Of the United
States have been brought To do many
things new and strange in the line of
cooking, of using substitutes and going
without many things that they have al
ways been accustomed to, but few have
been the complaints. In fact, many
housekeepers assert that, although they
can now do as they like in the matter of
using wheat, they have not and do not
intend TO change their manner of living
from what it has become since necessity
caused change in the mode of living.
Even health itself has been gained, some
state, as the result of the changed menu.
And so, although most housekeepers will
undoubtedly return to their customs Of
pre-war DAYS, still it is evident that no
harm has been done to anyone by the
change, some good may have been done
physically in certain cases and at least
we have done our bit for the less fortu-
nate peoples of the earth by our own say.
