THERE Is no longer any ques-
ton of "luck" in putting up
food products at home-it is
all a matter of understanding a
few simple principles and follow
ing them exactly.
Before describing any particu-
lar canning equipment or method,
let US look at the idea or principle
on which successful canning is al
ways based. 1t has been proved
that the reason foods spoil" is
because the fibres are attacked by
bacteria or molds which destroy
and create decay. Now, any
method of cooking or preservation
which absolutely kills all these
forms of bacteria will also pre-
serve the food. We call such a
process sterilization" and it
means that all life in the food, on
the can and In the very air Of the
can is completely destroyed,
The only means Of insuring such
perfect sterilization Is to use heat
or treat the foods to a boiling or
even higher temperature. Success
full canning depends on the raising
Of the contents of the can to such
q temperature and for such q
period as will entirely kill all bac-
terra, II this Is done the food can
not spoil. Thus, no matter what
method or equipment is used, in
every step complete sterilization
must be carried out. We must
scald or boil the cans, jars, their
caps and rubbers, the spoons and
utensils we use, and then do the
work so rapidly and so carefully
that the results will be certain.
There are two chief methods ~
use-(D the open-kettle method,
(2) the cold-pack method. The
open-kettlc method is the old
fashioned one Of cooking the fruit
or vegetable in a utensil first, then
scaling while hot into previously
Storilized jars or cans. 1t is never
so absolutely sure in its results,
particularly for vegetables like
corn, string beans or others Of
starchy nature. 1t is most salts
factory for delicate fruits, such as
peaches, berries, ETC., and for
many kinds Of preserves, jams or
pickles where II is necessary 10
condense and give the food even
more intense heat than is possible
in any other way.
Under the cold-pack method the
food Ia not cooked In an open
utensil over the fire, but is packed
cold and raw directly into steril-
lied jars, filed up with boiling
water or syrup and then sub jectcd
to sterilizing for certain period.
This method is preferable for al
most all fruits, for all vegetables
and for meats or soup stock. be-
cause it lesseus any possible dan.
ger of incomplete sterilization. H.
was the method followed for food
conservation during the war and
adopted and encouraged by the
government in all its canning
activities.
We can place all canning de-
vices or equipment under three
main groups as follows:
/. Hot Water Bath Outfits -
This includes washboilers, pals,
steam cookers, fireless cookers; |;
also many commercial outfits
where the sterilization is done in
glass jars immersed in boiling
water,
2. Water Seal Outfits - This
type has inner and outer Jacket"

Let's Can What We Can
By Mrs. Christine Frederick,
The Distinguished Authority Household Efficiency.

3. Steam Pressure Outfits -
These have pressure gauge, safety
valve and petcock, and carry from
5 to 80 pounds pressure. Advant-
ages of last two, outfits over the
water bath are greater accuracy in
the work, a higher temperature
and the taking of less time and
fuel. Either of these two latter
types are best for all quantity
work, the use Of tin cans and par
ticularly for the canning Of meats.
Probably some form of shot
water-bath" outfit is that most
commonly used by the housekeep-
er who cans in small quantities.
The best is the use of a steam
cooker in cabinet form with racks
which permit the holding Of from
eight to sixteen jars at time.
This cooker Is set on one burner
of a stove and is more convenient
and easier to use.
Coming to the second kind CT
outfit, this type of "water seal" Is
particularly desirable for large
quantity work, as Of a group or q
canning club. This outfit fitted
with a temperature gauge gives
accurate information as to the
degree of heat and permits exact
and careful work. II would be q
good outfit for a group Of farm
women, canteen work, etc.
The third type of pressure
cooker" is suited both to the in
dividual housekeeper and to those
doing quantity work. The family
size steam cooker is becoming
more familiar to housewives every
year. 1t consists of a large alun,i-
mum pot whose lid is fitted with a
pressure gauge like small clock
dial, a petcock for the escape Of
steam and a safety valve. The lid
is clamped to the pot by three
strong butterfly nuts" which
thus prevent the entrance or exit
of air.
In actual use a small wire rack
Is placed On the bottom Of the
cooker and the several jars to be
canned rest on il. The lid Is then
screwed on and the pressure al
lowed to run up to a given num-
ber of pounds, as 5, 10 or even 20,
and held there for the required
number of minutes. This outfit
cans quicker and possibly more
thoroughly than any other, owing
to the steam cooking involved.
Tomatoes, for example, can be can
ned in 10 minutes In pressure
cooker under s pounds Of steam,
whereas they will require 22 min
utes of time under any washboiler
or hot-bath outfit. In addition,
such a pressure cooker is q Valu-
able cooking utensil, especially for
large pieces Of meat, soups and
coarse vegetables.
While many types OF can or
glass jar are in use, the choice
seems to be most for the glass jar
with glass Ind fastening by a spring
top, and using fresh rubber each
season. Many excellent jars have
composition metal top which
gives good results, but which is
expensive because each top may
he used only once. Use new rub
bers each season. Be sure that
the jar is perfect, without hicks or
flaws on the bottle mouth, as the
least OF these will admit enough
air TO spoil the can.
Be thinking about your home
canning now. The market is Of
fering a profusion of Fall vege-
tables an'l fruits. and a jar can.
ned is more than a penny saved.
Next week | shall continue and
tell you IN detail all about the
cold-pack method of canning.
