Motorists, Keep Out of
Ashland County.

Tourists and motorists would do
well to give Ashland county wide
berth when travelling. They have
neat way Of extracting money from
motorists in the way Of fines for al
legged violations Of the speed law that
has gained for Ashland county an
unsavory reputation that extends far
and wide. So many cases of dirt"
handed motorists have come to light
that it is a wonder that tourists dare
venture into the county at all.
This pilfering Of tourists has be-
come so odious that Secretary West
brooke Of the Outdoor association Of
Chicago last week sent a communica-
ton to the Ashland county highway
commissioner condemning the met
hods Of the county's motorcycle cops
and asking that something be done to
remedy the situation and prevent
further harm to the good name Of
the county.
In most civilized counties a word
of warning from the speed cop to the
unsuspecting motor visitor is oeca-
sionally practiced But not so in
Ashland county. The fact that the
motorist may have exceeded, even un-
Intentionally. the speed limit of 30
miles per places him in the category
of all intentional law violators, and
he is Immediately "pinched" and fin
ed. Such a humane act as warming
a mOtorlst does not exist in the minds
Of the Ashland county speed cops.
Reckless driving is not taken into
consideration In the eyes Of its
road cops there is no such thing as a
safe and sane driver. Their system
Is 10 pinch" 'em as soon as they
step over the thirty mark.
And they are becoming adept at it
in Ashland county, practice having
supplied a system Of extraction that
would do justice to a carnival pick
pocket. The unsuspecting motorist

road is wide snd smooth. The old

suddenly road cop appears from APP

torist is told To 20 over to the gov

Motorists Of the United States
have every reason to be thankful
for competition, because it is bring
ing down gasoline prices which by
unanimous consent, automobile own
ers believe were too high.
Officials of oil companies say that
part of the competition is coming
from "bootleggers Of gasoline. and
that the price cut war is for the pur-
pose of eliminating the gas outlaw
Whatever may be the reason, those
who burn the gasoline for business
and pleasure purposes, are heartily
glad that prices are getting back
within reasonable bounds.
Whenever gasoline prices get alb
normally high, the big companies car
not make reductions without some
excuse, and that excuse is generally
10 eliminate competition.
Ii the smaller companies can pro-
duce gasoline at a profit. there is
every reason to believe that the large
corporations can make a much larger
profit because of the utilization of
the by-products.
1t would be a hard task to convince
the average man behind a steering
wheel that there is not some sort Of
hocus-pocus about the gasoline and
oil industry

,.NNING VEGETABLES FROM
o THE SUMMER GARDEN

Much the same precautions should
!. observed in canning vegetables as
LEO oiyen for meats. Vegetables are
1ost frequently spoiled by bacteria,
.ho spoilage being known as. putra-
section. An excellent slogan to re-
.,omber in canning any vegetable is
a11ne hour from the garden to the
,an. If possible gather the vegetable
: the early morning before it has
hocome heated by the sun. Prepare
.hom Immediately and get them into
.bo boiler in the shortest possible
lime Jars should have been thoroly
uashed and placed in the sterilizing
both where they should remain until
ready to fill. New rubber rings should
10 used each time as long heating
.ncb as is used in vegetable canning,
kills the elasticity Of the rubber.
Vegetables should first be cleaned
and then sorted for size. One contain
or should hold only equal sized veg
etables so that the period of time
for cooking will be the same. If Of
varied sizes the small ones will be
cooked to mush in the same time
that it takes the larger ones to be-
come tender. After washing through
several waters the product is ready
to blanch. This process consists Of
immersing in boiling water for from
three to eight minutes. Three times
the quantity of water as vegetable
should be used in order to insure it's
contact with every particle of the
vegetable. The most convenient me-
thod is to place the vegetable on
large square of cheese cloth then
gather up the corners and lower into
the boiling water. Start timing it
from the moment it is in the water
not after it starts boiling. Blanching
has two fold purpose. 1t partially
cooks the vegetable and makes it
more pliable in packing. It also re-
moves any foreign matter that may
not have been washed off and helps
remove any surface bacteria. Since
vegetables are difficult to can, the
cold dip is not advisable. It's only
purpose is to make handling less diff
fcult
The vegetable is removed from the
hot water and packed Immediately in
the sterile jars. A solid pack is de-
sired but not so tight that the heat
cannot readily penetrate to the CEN
ter Of the jar. Add one teaspoon full
Of salt to each quart and completely
cover with boiling water. Place on
sterile rubber and lid but do not
completely seal. If glass top jar
leave the last bail up, if a Mason jar, t
screw tight then unscrew one-fourth
of a turn. This is to prevent the
pressure from breaking the jar. It
is advisable to prepare only a small /
amount of vegetable at a time and
rush it thru to completion. At all I
times the vegetable should be kept I
either at a very hot or a very cold /
temperature. After placing in the /
