low corn you have started putting

them in a cool, dark, dry place.
Warmth may make bacteria in the
jars grow and multiply and spoil the
food. Hot pipes behind a wall some
times make a shelf or closet a hot
spot.
Freezing does not spoil canned
food. But it may crack a jar or break
a seal and let bacteria in. In an un-
heated storage place, you can pro-
tect your canned food from freezing
next winter to some extent by cover
ing with an old carpet or a blanket,
or by wrapping the jars in news

DampneSs Is hard on metal caps.
Light fades canned foods, so they
