to suit your taste, and adjust the
cap according to the manufacturers
instructions. After two or three
jars have been filled, ease them
down in the Gamer.
Have the water in the Gamer
steaming but not boiling. When all
the jars are in, the water in the
Gamer should cover them an inch
or more and should be brought to
boiling as quickly as possible. Keep
it boiling steadily but gently When
processing time (from 80 to As min
utes) is up, remove the jars, stand
them out of a draft and several
inches apart to cool. If most of
the pulp goes to the top of the
jar and the juice stays at the bot
tom, it is because the tomatoes were
poor quality, picked green, packed
too loose, or the water in the can
ner boiled too hard.
The cold pack, water-bath proc
essed method is probably preferred
by the majority of authorities on
the subject but for the last few
years there has been a trend toward
hot packing.
Selection and preparation for hot
packing is the same as for cold
packing. After the cores and skins
are removed, the tomatoes are
CHARTERED and cooked until they
have boiled gently for 5 minutes.
Then they are put into hot jars and
processed 20 minutes in a hot
water bath Gamer.
Boil Tomatoes Slowly
Open kettle? That's what causes
most of the spoilage! Those who
are not willing to adopt the more
modern methods should remember
that the prepared tomatoes should
be boiled slowly for 20 minutes,
then poured into hot jars. The ket-
tie of tomatoes and the pans of
water holding jars, caps, and rub
bers, should stay over the heat
so that a jar may be lifted out of
boiling water, placed on a cloth
folded in a pan, then filled with
boiling tomatoes, and sealed light
ming quick.
Mason jars which are to be sealed
with zinc caps and Ideal jars may
be filled to the top but should not
be overfiowed. About one-half inch
head space should be left when
glass top or two-piece metal Vacu-
Seal caps are used.
Yes, open kettle canning is hot
work and results are uncertain, so
why not now, since food is so price
less, change to better methods? Of
course, the newest is not always the
best. For example, oven canning,
new in comparison to some of the
others, has been given a fair trial
and condemned because it is I'M
reliable and dangerous.
A great many persons like to
process tomatoes ten minutes at five
pounds in steam pressure cooker.
This is safe enough but tends to
overlook the tomatoes, so our best
home Gamers use a water bath for
processing all acid foods.

USING ALL BUT THE CACKLE

Just as pork packers save all the
hog but the squeal, leaders in the
poultry industry believe that several
byproducts of poultry dressing plants
can be used better than they are used
now. These products include, among
many others, feathers, combs, shanks
and feet.
H. l.. Shrader, of the Extension
Service, U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, has summarized some of the
prospective uses of poultry bypro-
ducts and TIE progress of research
in developing fuller utilization.
Of approximately 100 million
pounds of feathers picked from
chickens in year, not more than a
fourth are now used by feather pro-
cessing plants. Most of the feathers
are thrown away or used for fertiliz-
er. Yet feathers are fiber, similar
chemically to the wool of sheep or
the bristles of hogs. Laboratory re-
search has produced feather thread
tkat can be woven into cloth or twist
ed into yarn. Another possible use is
for sewing UP incisions after surgical
operations Like catgut, feather
thread is absorbed eventually.
Finely ground feathers, mixed
with binding material, have been
nodded into light weight and colorful
trays and dishes. Still another use is
for making wallboard of high insu-
lating value. Feather fiber that has
been ground loose from the quilts,
when mixed with byproducts of rub
Der, yield product somewhat like
imitation leather.
On the basis of French experience,
picked cocks comb has fiod uses.
The shanks and feet are reported to
make an excelletn gelatin, though
scientific study of these products has
not yet gone far.
The small oil sack on the back of
q chicken just in front of the tail
provides an oily secretion that the
Di' d spreads on it's feathers to keep
them Shiny and to help shed rain.
This oil may have some commercial
use. The visceral fat of chickens has
proved valuable in soap making; and
other residues of eviscerating plants
yield high grade tankage.
Improved methods of handling
poultry manure, involving dehydra-
ton, cause it to retain it's high fer
tilizer value while at the same time
deodorizing it.
This survey, says Shrader, fore
shadows just few of the poultry
byproducts that appear to offer good
commercial possibilities.

DOGS PLAY PART

Also Proving Useful in Helping
Wounded Regain Health,
Place i'm Civilian Life

Americas dogs are not only doing
a great job on the battlefelds of the
present war, but are also proving
extraordinarily useful in helping
wounded and disabled soldiers to re-
gain their health and place in civilian
life, reports the Gaines Dog Research
Center, New York City.
Communicates drifting in from far
flung battlefronts speak of the varied
activities of the tens of thousands of
the K-9 Corps in "cramping the
style" of the enemy wherever he is
being encountered.
Newest use of the dogs in war are
as sled teams for evacuating wounded
personnel from the field of battle.
The use of dog teams through heavy
snow and in wooded country on the
western front has enabled IL men to
be moved out where only one could
be handled by stretcher bearers.

SCS SUPERVISORS TO BE
ELECTED

Farm owners and land occupiers
of Cecil County will vote, according
to County Agent, j. q. Miller, on
August 16, 1945, for three of five
supervisors to govern the recently
formed Cecil Soil Conservation Dis
trict, which embraces all of the lands
within the County.
Miller states that polling station
will be at his Office in the Post Office
building between 900 a. m. and
500 p. M, where all eligible voters
will be allowed to cast votes for each
of the three supervisors.
As pointed out by Miller, three
farmers have been nominated for the
Office of supervisor, namely Fred B.
MARTENS, Elkton; Charles England,
Rising Sun; and Ira A. Moire, Elk
ton. The other members of the board
who are appointed by the State Soil
Conservation Committee are Clarence
w. Brown, near Calvert, and Miss
Margaret England, Earleville.
The State Soil Conservation Com
mittee, officially responsible for the
referendum, points out that all per-
sons, farmers or corporations who
possess any farm land in Cecil Coun-
ty, whether owners, lessees, renters,
or tenants are eligible to VOTE, each
having three votes, one for each of
the Supervisors to be elected.

SIMPLE PRECAUTIONS CAN
CURB INFANTILE PARALYSIS
SPREAD

Although the term "infantile par
alysis" strikes terror into the hearts
of parents each summer, the chances
of children becoming infected with
this dread disease are exceedingly re-
mote
While more than $4,000 persons
in the United States die each year
of tuberculosis, and more than $780,
600 of cancer, the total number of
infantiie cases reported in any one
year is less than 10000, according
to an ar,)cle in the August issue of
Good Housekeeping magazine.
And this total could be substan-
TALLY reduced if parents would take
cognizance of few Fundamental
facts set forth in the article which
states in part:

jars, sees nothing unusual in the
situation because she finds it easier
to teach a person who has never
canned than to unite a CHI" one
backed by years of haphazard ex-
perience.
To prove her point, Miss KIM
brough calls attention to the fact that
tomatoes rate top place in both ease
of canning and spoilage after cam
ming. What's the answer? Sheer
carelessness plus old-fashioned
open-kettle canning. Anybody can
rig up water-bath Gamer for proc
essing fruits and tomatoes. A lard
can or a wash boiler, fitted with
some sort of platform to hold the
jar half an inch or so from the bot
tom of the utensil is all that is
needed for water-bath.
Carelessness Causes Spoilage
Spoilage of water-bath processed
tomatoes is usually traceable to
carelessness in selection and prepa-
ration or failure to follow the manu-
facturer's latest instructions. Pre-
war instructions should in most in
stances be forgotten. Remembering
them gets a lot of old-timers into
trouble.
Tomatoes should ripen on the vine
and be used as soon as they are
firm ripe. They should be canned
the day they are gathered, but if
kept cool they may stand as much
as "a hours before processing. This
is mentioned because some persons
must depend upon market for their
supply. Any tomato containing a de-
cayed spot, no matter how small,
should be discarded. Canning those
from which such spots have been
removed leads to spoilage. Sound
over-ripe ones and those from which
small spots have been cut may be
made into chill sauce or ketchup-
never, never into juice. Juice re-
quires sound tomatoes. .,.s,.ss +.
The jars, caps, rubbers, and can
ner should be ready before one
prepares the tomatoes. Every toma-
to should be carefully washed before
it is scalded for skinning. If you
have no wire basket, a square of
cheese cloth will serve the purpose
of holding tomatoes for scalding.
Simply put enough tomatoes for fill
ing one or two jars on the cloth,
catch up the four ends of the square,
and hold the "bag" in boiling water
from one-half to one minute. Then,
if you like, dip the bag in cold
water, making it little easier to
remove the skins. Next use sharp
pointed knife to remove every bit
of the core, slip the skins, cut away
any green or white spots and drop
the tomato into a clean hot jar.
Cut tomatoes if they won't go in
whole. After two or three tomatoes
are in the jar, press them with
clean wooden spoon Gone which has
been boiled) until they crack and
the juice runs out to fill the spaces
between the fruit. Yes, fruit is
right. We call them vegetables be-
cause they grow in gardens. When
the jar has been filed to within
about one inch of the top, add salt

charged war dogs are again taking up
their home ties, most of them the
better in manners, training and obe-
dience for going into service.
Sentiment is growing in many
places for some sort of memorial
to mark the contribution of Ameri-
cas- dogs on the war front and the
home front. Already the Gaines Dog
Research Center has announced an
award Of $4,000 to the person SUBJ
hitting the most acceptable design
idea or sketch-for a proposed memo
rial to be raised in honor of the dogs
that will have fought and died in
World War II. 1t has been suggested
that the most appropriate place for
raising such a K-9 memorial would
be in front of the Pentagon Building,
home of the War Department in the
nations capital.

SUCCESSFUL FISHING

How may the angler get the most
pleasure out of his fishing? Out of a
combination of many things. To be
successful he must study fish habits,
stream and lake bottoms, the various
creatures and insects which provide
the fish witk food. One must learn
how to use fishing tackle skil1fully,
and when and where to employ the
proper types. One should take an in
and it's effect on fishing, in the differ
ent animals, birds and flowers with
which he is in constant contact when
fishing. He or she should learn the
real pleasure that lies in comrade-
ship, courtesy and good sportsman
ship.
There is pleasure, too, in the thor
ough relaxation given by fishing, for
it provides escape from vexing prob
lens. Concentration upon the prob
lem of outguessing fish grasses all
other thoughts. Consequently fishing
refreshes the mind and gives it re-
newed vigor for the daily task,
Fishing also teaches patience
patience to await the right opportu-
nifty, make the proper preparation,
analyze a given situation. The lesson
thus learned is of value in anyone's
work.
Fishing is sport in which each of
us becomes both participant and au-
dience; and it may be enjoyed by
young and old alike. You can be
grees, from that of cane pole with
worms as bait to dry-fiy purist such
as "Ted" Brown, and each has it's
own charms.

 WAR(RIMES
Accused Criminal Escapes Another Suspect IsDis-
 charged from Post

ROME. March 6-Tension grippec Rome as political crisis loomeo as the outgrowth of the escape oi Gen. Mario Roatta during his tria on war crimes charges.
 The demands for reorganization of the government may topple the cabinet of Premier Bonomi and clear the way for premiership of Count SforZa, who was vetoed by the British as foreign minister in the present government several months ago
 Sforza is expected to make a strong bid, in the event Bonomis government falls.
 Columns of carabinieri patrolled the streets and guarded government buildings and the royal palace.
 Work was suspended in all but the most essential industries. A mass meeting of protest demon- stration was sponsored by the So- CldllSt, SOiliiuilioI diio OPPooANAoAi groups to the government.
 It was announced that Gen. Tadaeo Orlando was dismissed from his post as carabinieri chief. He was formerly an army general on Roatta's staff. Like Roatta, Orlando is wanted in Yugoslavia to stand trial on charges of war crimes. The Communist Party demanded his custer.
 ROME, March Gone civilian was killed, another injured and Brit ish soldier wounded when Romans waving red flags attempted to attack the Royal Palace while Crown Prince Umberto was inside.
 Two bombs were thrown and shots fired in a clash between mounted Carabinirei and crowd near the entrance of the Quirinal Palace in the midst of the political crisis gen. erated by the escape of an Italian General accused of war crimes.
 Prince Umberto, who is Lieuten- ant General of the realm, and talk ing over the duties of the King, failed to appear during or after the disturbance. The demonstrators shouted Death to the King!"
 A crowd of thousands marched to the Quirinal from Colosseum Square after a mass meeting there protesting to the escape of Roatta.

ROME, March 6-United States Fifth Army forces captured the hamlet of Bisopra, 13 miles south- west of Bologna after advances of from 400 to 800 yards in a drive on both sides of the Pistoia- Bologna Highway, Allied Head quarters announced today.
 Bisopra. with two 1,200-foot heights, forms a line dominating the area between the highway and the alternate Florence Bologna road to the east.
 American and Brazilian troops have made some progress through rugged terrain west of Highway 64.
 Eighth Army patrols have probed the spit of land separating Valli Di Comacchio Lagoon from the Ad- riatic.
 Allied fliers reported considerable movement in the German rear areas. Tactical Air Force planes blew up an enemy ammunition dump on the Eighth Army front, while British heavy bombers at tackled freight yards at Graz in southern Austria.
