company In France was inventorying
his carts and totaling the figures.

Of this cart"
The captain ran his pencil down
the column Of figures for several sec
onds, keeping one ear open for the
result of wilkins research.
But no reply came from Wilkins.
The captain glanced up to find all OF
wilkins except the head protruding
from the hole in top Of the water
cart. A desperate struggle with some
unseen monster seemed TO be going
on inside the cart. Finally Wilkins

Vinegar Aids in Preventing SPoiiaee.
During the past year the nome
economics experiment kitchen or the
United States department of agricui-
ture has been experimenting with the
addition of small amount of acid
yinegar-to nonacid vegetables being
canned This work is being continued
and the results thus far indicate that
one to four tablespoonfuls of vinegar
added to quart jar help greatly in
reducing the amount of spoiage.
When the vinegar is added. the time
of processing can be reduced For in
stance II is found that corn, when
ordinarily is difficult to can success
fully, keeps well when four table
spoonfus of vinegar are added TO n
quart jar processed three hours con-
tinuously. String beans, old peas ana
spinach are other vegetables success

The addition of vinegar TO canned

flavor of the vegetable. but the result
is not Objectionable to most people
and in many instances is not noticed.
