WILL NOT FORCE ROAD ISSUE
State Highway Commission Will Not
Urge State Aid This Session.

The state highway commission will
not force its demands for state aid
for hard surface roads at this session
of the legislature. Following the
showing registered by friends of the
Lambertson resolution in the house,
members of the state commission have
adopted a resolution declaring against
extensive highway projects under ex-
listing high prices.
Members of the commission will
seek to work out an agreement with
the Lambertson following. In this
manner they hope to save their pro-
gram. They promise to discourage
letting of contracts for hard surface
roads under present p~'ce quotations.
To the Members of L opeka Provf-
dent ASsoci:. IN.
You are hereby notified that the an
nual meeting of the Topeka Provident
association will be held at the Cham
Der of Commerce Wednesday, January
10, 1921, at 100 p. m.
All members are requested to be
present. (Signed)
II. H. PUGH. President.

VINEGAR USEFUL IN
VEGETABLE CANNING
Time of Processing May Be
Somewhat Reduced.
Two Years Of Experimental Work on
Subject Made by Home Economics
kitehen-Mueh Corn Reported
Spoiled Last Year,

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
A little vinegar added to beans,
corn, peas. asparagus. or spinach
when canned by the water-bath meth.
cd, will add materially in the reduc-
tion Of loss by spoilage. Moreover, the
time OF processing these vegetables
may be somewhat reduced when a
sufncient amount of acid ~ used, the
nome economics kitchen of the United
States Department Of Agriculture re-
ports after two years Of experimental
work on the subject.
In certain sections of the country
In 1919 and 1920 canned sweet corn
did not keep well, whether processed
continuously or intermittently. In the
home economics kitchen quart cans Of
corn processed for less than six hours
continuously spoiled, while others
canned at the same time, with the
addition of four tablespoons of vinegar
to one quart, did not spoil either year,
although given only two hours process
ing. If only three tablespoonfuls of
vinegar are used. process four hours !;
two or three tablespoonfuls Of lemon
juice to n quart have equally good re-
suits when processed three hours.
Corn should always be boiling hot
when packed into the jar.
With spinach and string beans the
addition Of two tablespoonfuls of the
acid proved equally effective in reduc-
Ing spoilage. Vinegar or lemon Juice
In the small amounts used modIfles
to some degree the natural flavor Of
the vegetable, but the acid taste is
not Objectionable to most persons.
Moreover, much Of the acid taste can
be washed off before the vegetables
are served. Experiments with vinegar
and other acids In canning vegetables
will be continued In the kitchen next
year.
