~w OST of the world now gets
M a certain proportion of its
AVA winter vegetables at least
from a can or glass jar. Methods
of canning have been so greatly
improved that both quality and
flavor make the cnaRge from the
garden scarcely noticeable.
1t is possible TO improve upon
the quality of these canned vege-
tables by lettering the method
of preparation. Much of that
canned" or deadly flat taste that
some people accuse the canned
vegetable of possessing may be
changed so as to bring the orig
inal pristine freshness of flavor
back. by giving the vegetable an
airing before it is cooked.
To do this open the can and
empty the contents out into a
shallow earthen dish, where they
may stand exposed to the air for
an hour or two before using.
This will make a great change i'll
the flavor of canned peas espe-
cially.
Canned vegetables should, of
course, be heated in the liquid
from the can, lest any flavor be
lost, but If seasoning is to be
AIDED, a part or all of this liquid
should be drained off before the
seasoning is added. otherwise
the vegetables will either be
sloppy watery mess when served
or perfectly gooc fat and flavor
will disappear down the kitchen
sink. The liquid should go into
the soup pot.
Canned vegetables like fresh
ones are improved by addition of
seasoning. Heating or almost
frying beets, spinach or any OF
the green's in butter or bacon fat
seasoned with a bit of finely
minced onion ana serving them
with a dash of vinegar greatly
improves the flavor.
With some Vegetable combina.
tions either green pepper or onion
may be used for flavor.
Salt, pepper and cream, butter
or bacon, fat, onion and lemon or
vinegar will usually serve to give
the flavor desired if the surplus
water is removed before the vege-
tables are seasoned.

them universal.
The first is that the duties of
childhood should be so carefully
and happily introduced into the
everyday conduct of the young
that no one will ever think of his
work as either unnatural or some
thing imposed as a burden.
The second is that your char
acter is measured more truly by
what you are than by what you
have. To have little and make
that little superb. To receive a
very modest income and yet
shine out through the meager.
ness of it, because of personal
virtues. To be plain and unpre.
tentious and yet to be as able to
look the world in the face as If
you were loaded with the worlds

Finally, no matter whether rich
