Of Its tripod, the new movie camera
weighs less than three and q half
pounds. 1t uses standard film and is
operated as easily as any simple "stilP'
instrument. The capacity of its maya
zines, designed for daylight loading, is
twenty feet, which, because eight in
stead of sixteen pictures are taken per
second, records as much action as
forty feet of film in professional ma
chine. Sharp, clear pictures capable
of reasonable enlargement for "stills"
are obtained. BY changing the lens at
taching light frame with reels Of
200-foot capacity, and mounting a
small, cylindrical lamphouse, the cam
era is converted into protector.

ADD COLOR TO THE GARDEN
GoIdfinches, Always Attracted by SUM-
flowers, Make Beauty Spot
Especially Attractive.

A very familiar bird in our gardens,
especially when there are sunfowers
growing there, is the beautiful little
American goldfinch.
Their deep black wings and tail and
little cap form striking, though pleas
ing, contrast to their bright yellow
bodies.
Because of their sweet, canary-like
notes they are often called wild ca.
naries.
They are very sociable little birds
being found usually in small focks
they even build their nests in small
communities.
When winter approaches the male
changes his bright yellow coat for one
of q soberer color closely resembling
that of the female.
Numbers of them feed upon the sun
flowers in my garden every year, and II
is pleasing sight to go in there and
see their bright yellow bodies flashing
in the suns
They are hardy little fellows, spend,
ing tfie entire winter with Hs.-Ne7Sl

RHUBARB

Because Of Its extreme acidity, rhu.
barb can be canned safely without
boiling (processing). Rhubarb should
not be canned In ordinary metal or in
Jars with ordinary metal tops. Only
glass or cans specially enameled inside
may be used.
Select young, tender rhubarb and
cut either into two-inch pieces or into
lengths to fit the jar when placed YER
tically. Pack In sterilized jars in ver-
tical rows. Cover with fresh cold wa
ter and allow Jars to stand ten min
utes. Drain off the water and again
fiji to overfiowing with fresh cold wa
her. Use cleansed rubber, put on glass
cap and clamp at once. In the far
South rhubarb should be boiled (pro-
cessed) in hot-water bath (pints ten
minutes. quarts 20 minutes) at boil
ing.
Since rhubarb contains much water,
a better and more economical product
could be, secured by canning rhubarb
sauce. Cut the rhubarb into one-inch
lengths and steam until tender. For
each quart of sauce add half cupful
of sugar. Pack hot in sterilized jars.
Partially seal. Boil tprocessJ quarts
