Time to Can Asparagus!
Bp Violet Faulkner

In our family we never had
enough asparagus left over to can;
we ate it as fast as the tender little
spears popped out of the ground.
But, for your sakes, I hope your bed
is larger than ours used to be so you
will have a surplus crop. And
since garden peas follow closely on
the heels of the asparagus crop,
you'll find directions on the right
way to do them, too.
For three years this bureau has
been making an intensive scientific
study of home canning loW-acid
vegetables and meats as the job Is
done in home kitchens and in
family-sized steam pressure cam
ners.
For pint jars, the process times
recommended are now shorter than
in the past, which means more at
tractive and better tasting products.
For asparagus canned in quart
sized jars, it was found necessary to
lengthen the processing time to In
sure perfect keeping.
The necessity of using a steam
pressure Gamer for low-acid foods
is again stressed by the scientists.
This is the only practical method
to guard against botulinus poison
ing from these canned products.
ASPARAGUS.
Wash asparagus; trim off scales
and tough ends and wash again.
Cut into 1-inch pieces. Cover with
boiling water. Boil or 8 min
utes. Pack hot asparagus to u
inch of top of glass jars. Cover
with hot cooking liquid; or, if liquid
contains grit. use boiling water.

When their children are a0out
to be married, practically all parents
have Z bclated impulse to take them
aside and give them loads OF good
advice about how to make 2 success
Of. the holy estate. This Is all to the
GOOD. Heaven knows the youngsters
need all the tips they can get about
how to keep out Of the divorce
courts.
For the amazing thing about mar
riage is that it is constant sur
prise. It is never the way bride ana
bridegroom thought 1t would be. IL
calls for an entirely different tecn-
niuue from the one they dreamed
out in the days OF courtship, and 50
any helpful hints on how to avoid
getting IN each Others hair and to
walk high, wide and handsome
around each Others pecularities, are
godsends.
So, 1t is undeniable that the new
lyweds are in dire need OF whatever
wise counsel father and mother can
give them on how to be happy
though married. The advice is all
right, but the trouble Is that the
wrong people give 1t. For mother
hands out her little packet of adj
monitions to daughter and father
wises up son on how to be a WIFE
tanner, when it should be the other
way around.
Neither one speaks by the book,
for no woman knows what qualities
a man wants In wife, nor does any
man know what makes a man an
ideal husband In his wife's eyes. All
that the poor creatures can do Is to
guess at it, and sometimes they hit
the mark and oftener they miss it,
and get most on their mates nerves
when they are trying hardest to
please.
Hence, the only qualified matri-
monial seer is one of the opposite
sex from the seeker after wisdom,
for he or she speaks from experience.
He or she alone knows what makes
a man a good husband, or a woman
a good wife.
So it Is nom who should say to
her son on his bridal eve: "It is a
terrible thing to take a young girls
life into your hands. so be careful
about how you handle it. Be good
