St*tor.. Junt 24—Sharpen
the hoe and plai.t - me h"l weather
vegetables to co ■ ilong after the
spring garden hfc- bu:ned up or gone
t seed, advises home gardener*.
Summer leaf lettuce of the Gran-J
Rapid- variety will produce young,
tender leaves in three or four week*,
he say-. Other vegetables which
should be planted at this time for
a late crop of the best quality ar -
tendergreen mustard and quash. If
a larger assortment of summer time
• ating is desired, plant butter beans,
okra, green pepper, eggplant, cream
pea- and cantaloupes along with
them.
If certain spring plantines are not
♦o be repeated, use those spaces for
planting hot weather vegetables.
For example, English peas may be
fallowed with cream neas, and after
white potatoes are dug. use that
ground for cre^m peas also while the
soil is well worked un. If plants of
green pepner and eeirplant are avail,
able, use them and therebv hasten pro
duction three or four weeks.
Cantaloupes for breakfast, the hort-
iculturist says, has the same place
in the diet as tomatoes or oranees,
or other fruit juices The P rfec*:> j
variety, which ha- a tender, high'v
flavored, salmon colored flesh, is
recommended.
Miss Kelly reminds us that it is
go^d garden practice to give plants
which grow into the summer months
an extra meal of plant food. For to.
mato plants annly about a half tea- |
cupful of fertilizer, like B-12-6. n
a circle 12 or IP inches awav frorr I
the nlant. and mix into the soil about
six inches with a hoe.
Watering the more tender vegt
tables such as lettuce, mu-tard. an i
etc., during hot weather will ha^teo j
growth and improve qualifv. |
! one-f'".irth teaspoon of sode should
be used for «-ach cup of molasses or
sorghum.
Mis- Kelly give* this caution:: M >-
la--^ and s< rghum burn easily, so
the temperature for baking should
be lower than the temperatures for
baking mixtures made with --ugar.
Hubs for substituting honey are
quite -imilat. Mixtures with honey
bjown easily and high heat changes
the flavor < f hr ney. so cooking tem-
per 'iture- should be lowered. A cup
of honey gives approximately the
same amount «f sweetness as one cup
of -ugar, s-> the exact amount may
be substituted. However, each cup ■■{
honey, like molasses, contain- about
one-f urth cup of liquid, so the liq-
uid requirements of the recipe shoula
be reduced one-fourth cup for every
cup of honey used.
The agent's final advice is: Use
approximately one-eighth to ont- i
fourth teaspoon f soda per cup >f I
honey in baked products such a.* :
cakes or quick breads.

SUBSTITUTING FOR SUGAR j
By observing several simple rule",
homernaker- successfully can sub-
stitute honey or molas-es for r«rr or
all of the sugar required in their fav-
orite recipes.
Katherine Kelly home demonstra-
tion agent, -avs the characteristic
flavors of molas-es and sorsrhum
make many foods more delicious.
Both vary in moisture and acidity,
she says, so the amounts she recom-
mends f r suear substitution are !
"anprox mate."
It take® about 1 1-2 cun= of nr-
la'ses or -orghum to equa'. one cup
of sugar in sweetness. Each cun
contain? approximately one-fourth
cup "f vater so the liquid in a recipe
should be reduced in vroporti >n. In

Ways to Save Sugar When you
"Put Up" Fruit
Crushed. Crushed canned fruit is
used in sauces for shortcakes, frozen
desserts, puddings, and pies. Th:s
method saves jar space.
Crush the fruit and heat it enoucrh
to draw out the juice but not enough
to spoil the fruit flavor or to scorch
the fruit. It is best to heat fruit in
a double boiler or an ordinary saiKv
pan set in hot water. Cook the
fruit " r 4 - inutes, then pour into
containers. Use no sugar or ju--t
enough to sweeten slightly. Seal and
process. Detailed direction? for pack-
ing and processing fruits are given
in B-*5 H 42 Canning Fruits and Veg-
etables. which may be obtained from
the home demonstration agent, Kath-
erine Keilv.
For Juicy Fruits: Blackberries and
Dewberries
Pack fruit whole or in halves ints
the containers, cover with boiling
juice made by crashing, heating and
straining the riper fruit. Seal and
pr-cess a<c. rding to directions in
Canning Bulletin B-P5.
Instead f the medium syrup sug-
gested for '--ann:ng most fruit- use a
light syrup. One-third cup sugar t<>
one cup water. If you desire you may
substitute ui> to one-third the sweet-
ening called for with an equal a-
mourt of corn -yrup. To make a light
syrup with corn syrup. for each gal-
lon of water you would use 3 1*3
cups sugar and 1 2--I cups com sy-
rup. Pack *h< frui* in the container-
and pour the h'«t •".■up over them.
Process a- directed above.
