Before country housewives learned
how to can meat, their families ate
'frssh" at butchering time until they
were surfeited. The rest was then
sailed, cured, or smoked, and except
few chickens and q little fresh meat
bought in the summer it was what the
family ate until the next butchering
season. Home meat canning, as advo-
Gated by the United States department
Of agriculture, has changed this condi-
ton. Those housekeepers who put in
to- cans the surplus fresh meat at
butchering time are enabled to distrib-
ute 1t over II months. Canning Is
equally valuable for use with surplus
chickens. 1t is better economy to can
the cockerels and surplus pullets when
they reach muturity than 1t is to feed
them all winter.
Meat Canning Popular.
Canning meat in some sections Of the
country has become almost as common
practice as canning fruits and vege-
tables. The housewife finds that a
can Of meat, which requires only re-
heating to be ready to serve, Is a great
convenience when company arrives I'M
expectedly or on hot summer days
when the heat Of the stove for a long
period becomes almost intolerable.
Canned meat also makes possible a
more varied diet and lessons the coun-
try family's dependence upon cured,
sailed and smoked meat, the constant
and exclusive use Of which means
monotony and less wholesomeness.
Sound Meat and Cleanliness.
The essential thing In meat canning
is carecare that the meat is untaint-
ed, care in scrupulous cleanliness, and
utmost. care in following directions.
For canning Of meats q steam-pres-
sure Gamer is recommended. It should
be able to develop at least $50 degrees
Of heat, or Is pounds of steam pres
sure. II tin cans are used they should
be packed to within one-half inch from
the top, be properly exhausted and
sealed. Glass Jars may be filled to
within one-half inch, the edge wiped
clean, rubber ring placed In position,
top put ON and springs adjusted but
not frightened; screw tops turned only
a little more than halfway alright.
Put the Jars on the rack above water
In the bottom OF the Gamer. Leave
the pet cock open until live steam is
escaping, then close 1t and count time
from the moment the required pres
sure Is reached, which for meats
should be Ii pounds, corresponding to
$50 degrees Fahrenheit
Meats are ready for preparation for
the Gamer as soon as the animal heat
has disappeared. For home canning
the meats should be cooked first
fried, boiled, roasted, baked or stewed
just as would be done for Immediate
