thick syrup bring one part of sugar
and one part of water to the boil

1t is always advisable to scald
preserve jars before packing with
the fruits. To do this, place the
clean jars in a kettle of cold water.
Heat gradually to the boiling point
and boil fifteen minutes. Let the
jars remain in the hot water until
the products are packed in them.
Likewise, the rubbers should stand
in boiling water for ten minutes.

In canning vegetables we advise
short pre-cooking to shrink the
products and to make it possible
to fill the Jars hot. Then pack the
scalded Jars Immediately with the
boiling hot cooked vegetables up
to within one inch of the topf fill
ing the Jars with the boiling liquid
that has cooked out, rather than
with hot water. Add one teaspoon
full of salt to each quart of vege
tables. OF course, il there is not
enough vegetable liquor, use boil
ing water instead. Adjust the
scalded rubbers and covers, and
process in the steam pressure
cooker. We will be glad to furnish
a. time table for the canning of all
fruits and vegetables upon the re-
quest of any of the readers. At
the end of the sterilizing, remove
jars and secure clamps.

KEEPING THE HOME
FIRES BURNING?

With floor coverings, bedding and
long strips of cotton saturated in
gasoline and kerosense, the home OF
w. r. Evants, a Phoenix real estate
dealer, was discovered in flames
shortly before IL o'clock Saturday
morning.
EVants, business associates say, left
that morning for a two weeks trip lii
the northern part of the state. Fire
men, responding to an alarm TUNED IN
by a neighbor, we're compelled to
break in the doors to gain admittance
to the home Only the fact that the
house was tightly closed, firemen say,
prevented it's immediate destruction.
Fires were found in four rooms of
the,home by the firemen. In the dim
ing room large pan of gasoline was
burning and in the other rooms, piles
of bedding and rugs placed on the
floors and soaked in kerosene were
blazing. Due to the lack of air in the
house the flames did not do mcuh
damage to the building and we're
quickly extinguished by chemicals.
Fire insurance men and Fire Chief
w. d. Simmons are investigating the
fire.

lake Saturday morning. The shooting
of Sills preceded the capture of what
is believed to be the largest Whiskey
still ever seized by. federal officers in
Arizona, according to Frank M. Pool,
federal prohibition director for An
zona.
The existence Of the still on the
north side Of Mormon Fiat lake had
been suspected by the federal officers
for some time. Saturday morning,
four federal prohibition agents accom-
panied by Deputy Sheriff Sterling
Price requisitioned a motor boat, the
property of the United States Recla-
nation service, and were cruising
about the lake when their attention
was attracted by the sight of man
armed with a gun who lodged behind
the rocks as the launch neared the
shore. When the boat was within 30
feet of the shore, the man stepped
from his place of concealment and
raised his shotgun about to shoot
when one of the federal officers raised
his pistol and fired. The bullet tore
through the mans hand, severing two

"Pap" Shepherd, 74-year-old col

home in Prescott. He came over with
Thomas Hines, the lightning real es-

herd lived in Flagstaff about 80 years
ago or possibly longer and was soon
well known for his culinary art He
left the state and was gone for many
years and in 1914 he returned to the
Skylight city with his wife and they
opened an exclusive cafe in the base
ment of the Weatherford hotel that
was patronized by the elite of the
town. He later took the old Tom Coul-

NOUS eating house. His wife has since
died and he has wandered around to
finally settle in Prescott where he
operates an employment agency. His
old time patrons in Flagstaff will be
