SHORT COURSE JUNE 14-16
H0memakers to Send Delegates to
University of Delaware

The seventh annual Delaware
Homemakers' Short Course will be
held from June 14th to 18th at the
University of Delaware. Miss Flor
ence L. Yetter, Home Demonstra-
ton Agnet has stated that this will
probably be the last program of its
kind until after the war. This is
due to the fact that the University
will continue through the summer
and the buildings will not be avail
able. All Home Demonstration
Clubs in Kent County are being
urged to send delegates this year
as the information and materials
will be given out for future club
meetings. This will take the place
of leader-training schools. The
Short Course is open to all women
in the state. An interesting and

ranged. Bus transportation to and

URGES CANNING
OF ASPARAGUS
Nutritionist Prepares Direc.
tions For Canning; Good
Source of Vitamins
AVAILABLE NOW

Of all the vegetables growing in
Delaware, none are more delicious
than asparagus. Its distinctive
flavor has given it a unique place
of favor on the American table.
From a nutrition standpoint aspar-
agus is a good source of minerals
and vitamins which every person
needs. No/wthat it is available in
good quantity and quality to Della
ware homemakers, Miss Pearl Mac
Donald, nutritionist for the Della
ware Agricultural Extension Ser
vice, suggests that homemakers
can asparagus for next winters
meals. She has prepared the fol-
lowing directions for asparagus
canning. Have fresh, tender as
paragus with tips of uniform size.
Wash well, remove small scales if
there is any sand or dirt under
them. Cut off any hard portion of
the stem. Asparagus may be can
ned in whole lengths or cut in one
or two-inch lengths. When aspar-
agus is to be canned whole, cut it
in lengths to fit the cans, tie in
bundles, stand upright in dish with
stem ends in boiling water and tips
above water, boil two to three min
utes. Pack at once in hot jars,
adding one teaspoon salt to the
quart jar; fill with boiling water,
put on rubbers and covers lightly,
process in wash boiler two hours,
counting the time from the point
when the water actually boils.
Have water come one or two inches
over tops of jars. When porcess-
ing is complete, remove jars from
Gamer, seal and cool. Do not in
vert jars to cool. If asparagus
pieces are cut one or two inches in
length, keep tips separate from
stalks. Pre-cook tips one or two
minutes and the stalk pieces two
or three. Proceed as above.
When using pressure cooker, pro-
cess for 40 minutes at 10 pounds
pressure. To do this, place jars on
rack in cooker with hot water to
the depth of one inch. Adjust COW
er, clamp down evenly and secure
ly. Allow pet-cock to remain open

STATES ADOPT TRUCK CODE
New Standards Eliminate Barriers
i'm Forty-eight States

One of Americas worst internal
aches = diverse state Highway
trucking regulations was cured
yesterday. Secretary of Commerce
Jesse Jones announced that all 48
states had agreed to uniform
standards and reciprocal license ar
engagements for motor transport for
the wars duration. This means
that a truck with, for instance, a
Pennsylvania license may now
transport goods through any state
without paying extra charges or
taking out multiple state licenses.
The last of the 48 states capitulat-
ed yesterday. The various COVER
nors had been informed that unless
they all got under the wire with
voluntary agreements, President
Roosevelt would issue an executive
order on the matter.
