Home Canning

Clemson College, July 15.-Every
farm home should have small can
ming outfit for use in preserving
fruit and vegetables for winter. An
abundance of canned products of this
sort adds comfort and health to the
family, and often there is enough
surplus to give a nice little income.
1t is seldom that canned fruits and
vegetables of fine quality fail to
command good price. With a good
fall garden one does not so much
feel the need of canned vegetables,
but there are a great many of the
tender sorts that will not grow them
and must be preserved in cans.
Think also of the number OF fruits
that may be canned. Even where one
has neglected to have a good orchard
there is in most localities an abun-
dance of blackberries, blueberries,
huckleberries, grapes and cherries
growing wild. In case enough vege-
tables have not yet been planted to
furnish a surplus to can, it is good
time now to make up the deficiency.
Tomatoes, snap beans, lima beans,
sweet potatoes, and other vegeta-
tables may yet be planted for can
ming during late summer. Anyone
interested in canning should write
the Horticultural Division of Glenn
son College for Circular No. n on
"Home Canning Of fruits and Vege-
tables.

and the insurance. The cotton is
valued at market prices of grades on
day cotton is stored and the amount
of insurance is determined by the
weekly average of price Of cotton
during the period of storage. The
charge of three cents a bale month
goes toward the expenses OF the
! Commissioners office. The insurance
is paid monthly, while the storage
charges are not paid until the cotton
is withdrawn from warehouse. All
persons not interested in the owner
ship of the warehouse pay the usual
charges for storage, and these
charges include the three cents
bale a month and the cost of insur-
ance.
12.-The farmer having cotton in
warehouse connected with the
State Warehouse has full protection
against loss-under the bond of the
local warehouseman, under the bond
of the State Commissioner, and under
an insurance policy. The cotton IS
stored in the community where
grown and can be sold any hour OF
any day of the year.
The farmers of each community in
every cotton production county IN
South Carolina should unite in build
ing a warehouse; the owner Of every
ginnery should operate warehouse
for the accommodation of patrons;
every farmer making 100 bales OF
cotton, should have a plantation
warehouse, or two or more farmers
should combine in the construction
of a warehouse with capacity suffi-
cient to store their own and their
neighbor's cotton. If there are
enough warehouses in the State
Warehouse System to store all the
c0CCOn grown III IuS oSoS \"

South Carolina could control the
marketing of their crops, selling
strictly on grades and only when
fprices were satisfactory.

patents lies in the Trading With the
Enemy Act" Under that laws pro-
visions American firms or individu-
ais a obtain licenses to use patents
issued to Germans and Austrians be-
fore the war. Nearly 10000 such pat
ents have recently been listed and
classified by the federal trade commits
sion. Many Of them would be Of con-
siderable value to American industry.
There are any number of processes for
making dyes and drugs, as we'll as
many scientific formulas--treating old
rubber, for instance, so that 1t can be
remade into automobile tires and 9TH
err articles of commerce. At the time
the armistice was signed only about
100 applications had been made for
permission to use any of these 10000
different patents. partly for the reason
that many firms did not know there
was such a law, but mainly because,
as the law now stands, American firms
would have to stop using the processes
when peace was ratified. However, ef-
forts are being made TO have congress
amend the act so as to make its provi-
sions permanent. In that ease there
probably would be a rush for many Of
the 10000.
Most patents of real value are taken
out by people who make a business
or hobby of invention. 1t very seldom
happens that a man stumbles upon a
valuable invention by accident. Most
of the Worthwhile ones are the result
of long and patient study and expert
menting.
1t Is a popular belief that Thomas A.
Edison has patented more inventions
than anyone else, but officials say this
Is not true.s He has taken out a
great many, however, and as one of
the examiners put 1t, "Not more than
anybody else. maybe, but a long ways
better than anybody else."

100000 STARvE TO
DEATH IN TEHERAN
Persian Charge GAffaires to
United States Appeals for
Stricken Country.

People all over Persia are falling
dead as fast as autumn leaves from the
trees. Twelve thousand persons have
died In the past year in Teheran alone
from starvation and the diseases which
follow malnutrition. Unless help on
a large scale is prompt the entire coun-
try will be- threatened, is the substance
of unofficial letters just received by
Mira Ali Kuli Khan, N. D., Persian
charge d'affaires to the United States.
In making this information public,
Doctor Khan stated: "The Persian
government has not officially asked for
help. This is not an official appeal
for help for my countrymen. As a hui
man being, however, my conscience
compels me to call to the attention of
the generous American public the fact
that my countrymen n facing the
prospects Of the winter with a shudder.
Al. the time the letters were written
thousands of dead awaited burial at
Teheran."

sentative Of the American committee

does not begin to meet the need.
Workers, food and medical supplies
must Immediately be sent to Persia on
a large scale IL the cradle of the white
mans civilization is to be saved from
utter ruin.
In light of the fact that Persia has
rendered great service to the allied
cause by remaining neutral, and that
now famine and plague threaten to
wipe her out of existence, Doctor
Khan was asked what part his coun-
try might take in the coming peace con-
ference. and. he only said: "That will
be settled later. Now, however, my
poor starving, plague-stricken country
must be helped. As q consequence OF
the war, Persia's commerce has suf-
fered seriously. The government and
leading people have done their utmost
to relieve the situation, but without
further aid, food and medical supplies
the winter will cut Off large sections Of
the surviving population"

 Europe needs red blood, rather than relief, and it would not be unacceptable if gratitude was shown to America for what she has done. Europe will take all we have to give, and certainly we should give something.
 "But we should ask for an ac- counting on everything we give and insist that the statesmen of Europe get down to business if they want to continue receiving our help. There is too much talk and not enough work in Europe"
