A Spelling Lesson.

Once upon time there was stub
born student who refused TO learn to
spell
But always the teacher pleaded with
the student and often said:
You will suffer some great incon-
venience, If not actual tragedy, some
time, by reason Of this refusal of
yours to study photography!
Yet still the student was obdurate,
and said "blah."
One day, after the obdurate student
had grown 60 manhood, he poisoned
himself eating oysters In "Orgust."
And when the teacher, who had now
grown old and toothless teaching or
biography, heard this she said:
"Uh, huh! I told him so!"-From

Issue of The Dial.
"He freshens up the ladies he con-

ct, galvanized lard can or washboiler,
which will hold enough water to cover
a convenient quantity Of the product
to be blanched, should be provided.
Several kettles will be needed for
blanching, for rinsing after blanching
and other. purposes. A teakettle should
be on hand for boiling water, which
Is needed from time TO time for filling
jars and for renewing the blanching
water.
Sharp-pointed paring-knives are con-
venient for peeling and cutting. Ut is
well to use silver knife for peeling
fruits that are sometimes discolored
by steeD. Tablespoons, teaspoons,
measuring cups and spatulas should
be at hand. Some means must be pro-
vided for lifting the jars out Of the
boiling water and for keeping them off
the bottom of the boiler during the
processing. This may be tray with
tall handles, or a false bottom to the
boiler may be used with some sort of
utensil to lift the Jars. Many kinds Of
patent holders or lifters may be pur-
chased, or litter may be improvised
at home. A large buttonhook works
well with Jars that have a wire spring
clamp over the top.
Make Work Progress Rapidly.
When canning in large quantities,
such conveniences as strawberry hull
ers, vegetable slicers, apple corers,
cherry pitters, apple parers, food chop
pers, scales and saccharometer to de-
termine sugar density will make the
work progress more rapidly.
If the product to be packed is to be
cooked first, spoons, sleeves and sauce
pans are necessary. tunnels and
packing spoons or flexible metal spat-
ulas or wooden paddles will aid In
filling the jars and in removing air
bubbles.
If the canning is to be done out Of
doors, tables of convenient height, a
covered garbage pail and fytraps are
needed. A kerosene stove is convenient
for heating water. All jars or tins
should be washed, before the work is
begun, and new metal lids, rubber
rings, or sanitary caps provided.

New BUILDING Material.

At Marrero, La, there has been
erected a factory for making build.
ing material from sugar cane bagasse,
the equipment Of the mill Is very
much like that in a paper factory. The
bagasse is Clipped, cooked and
washed, and then sent to beaters,
where it is worked up until the fibers
are of the proper length. A special
machine converts the pulp into board
and this is dried for four hours,
emerging as finished product, quite
dry and hard. 1t is known as celotex,

World Mining Slump

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11-Alaska's
mineral output for 1921 had the
lowest annual value since 1904. ac-
cording to an announcement by the

The mineral output OF Alaska for
1921 was valued at about S16,109,000
as compared with $23,303,757 In

to decline in all forms of lode
mining, especially that of copper.
