With a hot-water bath outfit the

A false bottom for the processing
vessel is practically an essential. Its
purpose Is to allow free circulation of
the boiling water around and under the
Jars and also to prevent the Jars from
resting on the metal bottom right next
to the flame. Such false bottom can
readily be made out of pieces Of lath
or wood or by bending piece of stiff
wire netting. Still more convenient
will be a wire basket with small legs

Pressure cookers, which are light to

which stick up above the hot water.
This basket makes an excellent false
bottom and at the same time enables
the housewife without trouble to lift
several jars In or out Of the hot-water
bath at one time.
With such equipment, clean, airy
kitchen and utensils, or fire and clean
tables In a shady clean place out of
doors, the housewife will need only to
follow directions carefully, work quick
ly. and be ever watchful Of sanitary
conditions, to can and preserve garden
products successfully. When the re-
ouired temperature to sterilize (boil,
steam) various products is reached,
they must be held for the length of
time stated in processing (heating)
timetables, and the Jars must be seal
ed air-tight Immediately after the pro-
cessing.
Some steps in the procedure may
seem unnecessary to the amateur. but
the operations of blanching, boiling or
steaming of Jars, attention to rubber
rings, and final sealing have an impor-
tant function in aiding to kill molds,
yeasts, and bacteria and In preventing
their re-entry into the food.
Si1ce all successful canning Is de-
pendent upon sterilization by means of
heat, it is most important to apply suf-
hcient heat to make the products ster-
lie. Do not let filed jars cool before
they are sealed. Seal them tight while
they are still hot from the bath. The
hotter the product when sealed the
less chance that molds and bacteria

One of the most determined and hos
tile opponents of woman suffrage is
Senator Brandegee of Connecticut.
The Connecticut senator arrayed him
self against practically all of his col
leagues recently by saying that there
is no such thing as "the right to vote"
Brandegee held that it was not right,
but privilege. He stood just about
alone on that proposition, but found
more of his colleagues agreeing with
him few minutes later when he as
serted that "all this talk about striking
tbe shackles and the manacles from
the limbs of the enslaved women of
this country is perfect tommy-rot."

For long time the most abused
skeleton in the war departments clos
ct has been the $640,000,0OO appropria-
tlon for aircraft, made shortly after
the United States got into the war,
which the calamity howlers claimed
was spent without any return in the
way of aircraft. Congressman Kahn
of California cleared the situation for
the house by explaining that the
money was used not only for airplanes,
but to buy land for aviation fields,
to build hangers for the machines. to
put up barracks for student flyers. and
for many other similar necessary ex-
penditures.

The farmer has a lot of friends
in congress. Even when 1t was
known that the president was very
much opposed TO legislation increasing
the price of wheat. the senate insisted
upon an advance of 80 cents bushei
for wheat and the house consented by
a vote of $50 to LOG to one of 70 cents
a bushel OF course this action was
not taken without considerable opposl-
ton. Congressman Stafford OF Wlscoh-
sin declared that there is no class OIL
people in America who have been Dehe-
flied more as a result of this war than
have the farmers"
This statement aroused Congressman
Cox of Indiana, who is generally very
plain-spoken. He said in reply:
get ALFRED tired when 1 hear men
talk about the present unprecedented
prosperity of the farmer. L WONDER
why such men do not resign their seats
in congress, if farmers are becoming
milllonaires, and go out and don suit
of overalls and brogan shoes ana go
to raising wheat, oats, corn' par-
ley, rye, hogs, cattle, and all other
farm commodities. 1 wonder why the
city gent does not lay aside his dia-
monds and gold-headed cane and go
into the country and get rich.'

proposition in the house and seldom
has it happened that as much Is SAID

DOCTOR INSISTS ON
APPETIZING MEALS

Springfield. Ill.-Appetizing meals
are being insisted upon by DR.. Doug
las Singer, alienist of the department
of public affairs, in all institutions
where, wards Of the state are cared
for.
To this end DR.. Singer has pre-
pared dietaries for state institutions
which include a table of food values
and many suggestions as to methods
Of serving.
"The value Of food depends upon
the amount assimilated rather Dan
upon the amount eaten" says DR.
Singer. Assimilation is Influenced
more by appetite than anything else
It is, therefore. economical to stimu-
late appetite in every way possible
Condiments and flavorings may rem.

liar preparations. without milk OF
sugar are often wasted"

WAR HAS EFFECT ON
STATE INSTITUTIONS

Springfield. Ill.-A few Of the econ
omies practiced in state institutions
as a war measure, according to the
state department Of public welfare,
are as follows:
Rags heretofore sold are being cut
into fine pieces and used as filling for
pillows. sOthers are used to fill COM
forts which are being substituted for
blankets which can not readily be OBJ
tanned.
Discarded stockings are being un-
rayeled and made into scarfs after
proper disinfection has taken place.
Portions of old shoes are being unit
ed with bits Of old carpet or canvas
to make ward slippers, patients doing
the work.
All meat bones are first cooked for
soup, then rendered for fat and finally
ground for fertilizer.

The saloon license taken out by Pm
H. Taxman to dispense intoxicatin
liquors at 317 Seventeenth street wa
revoked by the city commission yes
terday afternoon.
The same license was torn of tn
wall of the saloon a week ago Monda
night after the police had made
raid of a room above the saloon an
arrested a couple from Davenport
At that time August Swanson, man
lager of the saloon, was also arreste
and paid a fine Of $50 and costs a
keeper Of a disorderly house. He PAL
both his own fine and that OF the in
mates. 1t was Swanson's second Of
tense on the same charge. Swansea
had rented the room out to the cou
pie and the bartender at the place wa
said to be in possession of the key
all times. The place had been unde
observation for some time, and whe
one of the patrolmen saw the coupl
enter, the raid followed.

means that the two properties canno

number of saloons.
