co.operative Community Canning.

Io.OperstNe community tsnninfs
Every year many tons Of fresh
fruit and vegetables and many pounds
Of fresh meat are allowed to 20 to
waste. Most Of the vegetables vast.
ed are in small gardens which sup
ply the family with fresh vegetables
just few weeks . or months each
year. Too often the owners Of these
same gardens must spend many dol
lars for canned vegetables during the
greater part Of the year, or else do
without which is loss to the general
health of the family.
This enormous loss Of food. with
the consequent lack Of nourishment
occasioned by poorly balanced meals.
Is not always due to lack Of knowl-
edge Of canning on the part Of the
housewife. In most cases il is due TO
a lack Of time Then, too, some
have not carefully counted the cost
and compared the quality Of home
canned prducts with those canned in
the factories.
To meet the needs Of the people
who have grown a garden but who
have no ,itme for putting up what
they have raised or who do not wish
to buy equipment for first class home
canning or those who for any reason
cannot put up what they have raised
at home, better means Of taking
care Of this food has been developed

quires very little capital to begin

way that he can readily dispose Of

Proper Preparation Needed Before

To insure maximum and profits-
Bile yields Of corn Il IL highly import
ant, according TO the United States
Department Of Agriculture. TO pre-
pare seed properly for planting. Far
mers should devote a. much time a.
necessary to the preparation Of their
seed corn before the rush Of spring
work. They should discard All unde-
slrable ears. after subjecting the
corn TO careful termination test,
while subsequently they should nub,
classify, and shell the seed ears by
hand. in addition to testing the accur-
acy Of the drop Of the corn planter
First Of all. Il is essential that the
grower carefully 40 over the seed
ears he selected last fall In order to
discard any that have discolofed ker-
nels or cobs or that have a dead APP
pearance. Furthermore. he should
throw out all extra light ears. a. well

desirable kernels. kernels with very
sharp beaks. or with germs Of poor
development and appearance. The
ears retained for seed purposes
should show good development and
maturity be heavy for their sire. and
contain solid, vigorous looking ker-
nels Of fairly uniform size and shape.
These desirable ears should then be
tested to determine whether all the

unfavorable season. Il was advisable
in many sections TO carry on a care
full termination test Of each ear sof

crop matured so much better that
such painstaking and minute testing
may not be necessary. The common
practice Of testing ma average sample
Of the seed supply. such as the test
ing Of 10 kernels from each Of so
ears, may be taken as dependable
indication Of the termination Of the
entire seed supply. Some farmers me-
glect to nub their ears Of seed corn
in order to get rid Of the small, shriv-
eled, and undesirable kernels, which
often centralize at the tip Of the ear,
but as such seed is inferior. 1t should
be eliminated. In similar manner
growers should discard the round,
thick kernels from the butts Of the

uniform distribution Of seed by the

been injured by mice or weevils, or
that are otherwise undesirable,

ears are shelled
A Simple Way % Grading.
Another eommendable practice, re-
port the specialists Of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. consists in clas-
styling the ears before shelling them
in order that only uniform kernels Of
similar size and shape be used in the
planting operations, ~ Il is highly adj
visable that the corn planter should
drop an equal number Of kernels in
each hill n necessary TO plant two
or three classes or sizes Of kernels
they should be shelled and bagged
separately. The planter plates and
these respective bags Of seeds. which
have been thoroughly tested as to
size and shape so that the proper
number Of kernels will be dropped
regularly. should be tied up for CON
venience Ut planting time. This Is a
simpler and less costly method Of
cleaning and grading the seed than
where expensive graders are ucsd.
A point many farmers neglect each
year il TO shell their seed corn by
hand Each ear should be shelled
separately into a hand sieve, rs this
practice permits the chaff from the
cob 10 fall through and the kernels
from each ear to be closely inspected
before being deposited with the gen.
eral supply. The value Of this close
inspection is lost II the ears are run
through a corn shelter and some Of
the kernels cracked or broken.
