those that are plentiful in
late summer. of which the Bart
lett is probably the best known
variety, and those that come
into season in the early fall.
OF this latter group the Seckel
is particularly good for canning
and preserving.
Pears should be firm but not
hard. Contrary 10 belief, the
color is no indication of the
quality nor of the degree of
ripenesS, as some that look
green may he ripe enough 10
eat, and others that have a yell
low skin may be still immature.
A buShel of pears will yield
about Ia quart jars of canned
fruit.
Both the hot water bath and
the heat controlled oven are
recommended for the process
ing of peaches and pears. The
open kettle method is not sue
cesSful as ii tends TO break up
the fruit, resulting in a NASTY
product. However, this latter
method can be employed very
successfully for preserves. con-

To aid you in your canning

knowledge that the Germans
would make this the backbone of
their defensive system here impell-

REPEATING PATTERN
The battle for Bryansk was re-
peating the pattern of the battle
for Orel with the Russians block
ing the main enemy forces defend
ing the principal strongholds, while
swinging forces carry out enyelop-
ing manerVers.
Sabenniko, said thousands of
German planes have been thrown
into the attempt to hold the Kar-
achev position. In Orel, Allied cor
respondents saw Russian fighter
squadrons sweeping Westward to-
ward Karachey 10 counterattack the
Luftwaffe's bombers.
At other points in the rear of the
front we watched big Russian
bombers coming back from Mis-
Sions.
The German forces defending
Karachey were said to be excellent
units equipped with great profu-
sion of weapons. Sabennikoy said,
however, that the Russian firepoW-
er. particularly in artillery, was
overwhelming.
Analyzing the Russian successes,
Sabennikov said that the Russians
have learned by experience and
were now stronger in every respect
than the enemy and that the Ger
man army was nowhere the army it
used TO be. He fully expected addi-
tional big victories.
