| PRESERVING.

These. recipes are prepared for adj
vanced club members who are ready
| to begin work in preserving. In order
to secure the uniform products re-
quired for market, it is necessary to
have some special equipment. Good
enamel or aluminium vessels, scales,
measuring cups, wooden spoons and
paddles, thermometers and sacchar-
ometer (see letter $3.50 are needed.
In making preserves the object is to
have the fruit saturated with the syr-
UP. Care must be taken to do this
gradually, so as to prevent the shrink
ing and toughening which results when
fruit placed at once in very dense
strip. 1t is also important not to pack
the finished preserves in strip heavy
enough to crystalline later. To insure
accurate and uniform results, test with
a saccharometer the density of all
sirups used in packing preserves. A
250-centimeter glass cylinder or other
tall slender vessel is needed to hold
the sirup in which the saccharometer
is floated. The degrees of density used
in these recipes are those indicated by
Balling or Brix saccarometers.
Process preserves or jam in 12-ounce
or pint jars, 20 minutes at $50 de-
grees f. (simmering). When jars with
glass top and screw cap or wire clamp
lightning seaD are used, tighten can
Immediately at end of processing
When hermetic jars are used, leave
clamp on cap until jar is entirely cold
Measurements level.
Preserved Berries.
Practically the same methods are to
be followed in preserving and making
jams OF all berries. Berries should be
gathered in shallow trays or baskets
and not in deep vessels which allow
them to be bruised and crushed. They
should be uniform, ripe and sound. Sc
lect only large, firm berries for pre-
serving; those for jam may contain
the smaller and broken ones All ber-
ries should be carefully sorted and
lightly washed by placing in a colander
and pouring water over them, rather
than putting them into a pan of water.
To retain the best possible color
and flavor, strip for preserved berries
should be made of a berry juice OBJ
tanned by crushing, heating and strain
ing the softer, broken berries. Add one
pint of sugar to each pint of berry
juice and allow TO boil 10 minutes.
Weigh the choice perfect berries after
removing the caps or stems and allow
pound of sugar extra for each pound
of whole berries. Add the extra sugar
to the strip, bring to a boil and skim.
Remove from the fire and cool strip
before dropping the berries into it to
prevent slrivelling and toughening the
fruit. Place over the fire and bring
slowly to a boil and simmer until the
berries are heated through, being very
careful not to overlook; the berries
should remain whole. Lift the berries
from the strip and place carefully into
shallow pans. Pour strip over them
and allow to stand over night. Pack
cold, filling the jar with berries before
pouring the strip over them. Cap, pro-
cess and seal. The preserves may be
packed hot, after removing from the
fire capped and processed Immediately.
The strip in which the berry preserves
are packed should have density of 80
to 55 degrees, and viii often need to
be boiled down to this density after re-
moving berries.

THE PROGRESSIVE MERCHANTS

Your attention is called to the changes in the
advertisements in this issue and also to the new
ones The merchants Of our city appreciate your
trade and take this of telling you of any
bargains they may have to offer and also to an
the arrival OF goods which placed
at your disposal and inspection By closely
watching the columns OF this paper you will learn
the of business men who invite you to
deal with them and you rest assured that they
will treat you right. A merchant who does not
care enough for your trade to ask you to visit his
store ard who does not inform you of the many
bargains he may have to offer is hardly worth
your patronage The progressive merchant will
always let his custimers know of the arrival Of new
goods at once. and the way for out merchants to
do this Is thru the columns Of this paper which
goes into almost every home in the county.

Health Week

The conservation of health, the advantages
of periodical examinations by physicians, and the
war on communicable diseases are beginning to
be understood better by the American people. A
disregard of all the laws of hygiene and of sane
living is giving way to practical appreciation
of the value of good health.
The avoidance of illness has a social value
that is much greater than most of us imagine it
to be. We usually think of illness only in terms
of physical suffering. We ought to think of it
also in the terms Of economic value. Every i'll
ness that prevents us from doing a days work
reduces the business of the factory, office and
business by that amount. Millions of dollars an
nually, it is estimated, are lost by reason of i'll
ness, part of which could have been prevented.
When person is i'll, he usually loses his pay,
and the firm for which he is working loses the
productivity of his hands and brains. This shows

mately, of course, in reduced buying capacity.
The amount of money which individual
loses in his pay envelope may be small, but the
combined losses of the persons who are i'll few

Any movement, therefore, that enables us to
cut down the time that is lost from sickness is
beneficial to the individual and to the whole ma
ton, and deserves to be encouraged.

watch our systems for indications of trouble, and
too many of us refuse to follow the dictates of
correct living after they have been pointed out

Mound Builders Traced
Back to Stone Period

An effort is now being made to ex-
cayate the Cahokia Mound in Illinois
few miles east of St. Louis. The
Mound Builders ante-date the Indians
and the pyramids Of earth they left In
the Mississippi basin are probably the
oldest evidences of human life on this
continent. Scores of these earth heap
originally occupied the site of ST. Louis
but they were demolished to make
way for the building of the city. and
no systematic work of searching for
relics of their builders was under.
taken at that time. Fortunately. how
ever, the largest Of the mounds was
across the river,
