Cautions for Home Canners
Housewives doing home canning
With wartime jar caps are cautioned
to follow implicitly the instructions
of the cap manufacturers if they wish
to avoid unhappy experiences and
waste in their patriotic effort to con-
serve. Spoilage of food and breakage
of jars is certain to result, if instruc-
tions are not followed to the letter.
Proper methods and careful can-
ning will insure excellent results,
more important in the present food
situation than at any other time.
The Glass-Top Seal Fruit Jar Cap,
s wartime product developed to con-
serve metal, requires careful use,
sccording to the hpme service de-
partments of fruit jar manufacturers.
This cap consists of a metal band,
glass lid and rubber ring. With these
three widely varied materials making
up its component parts, the cap must
be used according to important but
easily followed instructions. First of
all. the cap is not recommended for,
and must not be used in, oven can-
ning.
If the food is processed (cooked in
a jar), one inch of space must be left
In the top of the jar when filled, in
.order to allow room for expansion.
a If an open kettle is used a half-incb
of spAce must be left in the top of
the Jar.
The next step is to place the rub-
ber around the projection on the bot-
tom side of the lid, and the lid must
then be placed so that the rubber lies
between it and the top edge of the
Jar. All jars on which top-seal clos-
ures, either glass or metal, are used
must have smooth-top edges.
The band is then applied tightly
and immediately loosened slightly
about one-quarter of a turn. Bands
must fit loosely during the processing
or. cooking. If an open kettle is used,
the bands are to be screwed tight as
soon as the jar is filled. After the
processing is completed the bands
are screwed tight to complete the
seal. The bands may be removed
twelve hours after the canning opera-
tion. At no time should the filled
jars be turned up-side-down.
The housewife who takes no chances
on variance from any one of these
simple but important steps is assured
of'success ana the enjoyment of the
delicious flavor of home canned
foods this winter.—Adv.
Don't punish your child, especially a child uho is six or more; don't punish
him any more than you would attempt to punish the friend who inadvertently
destroyed a book or broke a teacup of yours, or who forgot a date or said a
nasty or unkind thing.

But as be grows out of baby-
hood they insist that he abandon
all his trying baby ways, and some-
limes, not getting any real help
from them, he doesn't do It. Then
the trouble starts. He wants deli-
cate handling; he wants someone
to understand him; his case is as
serious as that of an adult sent to a
sanitarium for mental treatments.
If he Is allowed to blunder along
by himself blindly, disciplined and
disliked and misunderstood, a fatal
and permanent twisting of his char-
acter may be the result.
A man of 60 told me the other
day of his own experience. He had
been an unwanted baby, and his
mother often reminded him of the
fact. The other children were nine
or more years older than he; he had
no companion at home. His father
was a nervous wreck, giving to
thrashing of his sons as long as he
was the stronger. His mother was
socially absorbed; his aurse was a
silent, cold, frustrated woman whose
only conversation was reserved for
the servants' hall.
Traded si Bad Pupil.
Sent from boarding-school to
boarding school the little fellow got
a worse and worse reputation. Fi-
nally. at 11. as her worst boy. his
teacher "traded" him for the worst
boy in another class. The new
teacher was a woman of 40; she
put him In the last seat in the room,
and when giving out the first lesson
stood beside him, with her free hand
on his head. And when, thrilling
through all his lonely little being at
this friendly touch, he looked up at
her, she smiled down on him.
That was the beginning of a
friendship that changed the boy's
whole life. He graduated with hon-
ors, went on into a full and happy
life, on the strength of one friend-
ly and trusting touch of a teacher's
hand.
A bad child Is always 'an un-
happy child.
"When my boy was born," writes
a mother 27 years old, "my daugh-
ter Jacqueline was four. For the
first few months of little Keith's
rivalry she appeared to be devoted
to him, accepting the situation with-
out any emotional reaction. But aft-
er that she changed, not so much
toward the baby as toward every-
one. She grew nervous; she went
back to babyhood habits of which
she had long been broken; she
would not agree to give up her crib
and sleep In the new big-girl bed
we promised her; she fussed over
meals, and to everything proposed
or asked of her she shouted ‘No.’
'After weeks of this, feeling rath-
er like a fool, I consulted a psycho-
analyst. She told me to do three
things; I did them, and my troubles
were over.

CHILDHOOD PROBLEMS
The. change from babyhood
to childhood is not made over-
night. This transition is some- |
times a period of unhappiness
for the child and anxiety for
the mother unless mother is
capable of understanding and
handling the situation. The
competition presented by an
infant for the attentions of |
parents sometimes causes emo-
tional upsets in young chil-
dren. Kathleen Norris passes
on the experience of one
mother who met and solved
this problem with the aid of a
child psychologist. Punish-
ment is not the way to lead a
child to happiness and success
in this bewildering world.

hold him while I go for his blanket?'
Also always to refer to Jackie when
speaking of him to callers. "Jackie,
do you suppose he’d cry if I brought
him down? You know he behaves
better for his big sister than he does
for me.’
"Secondly, I was to buy the new
bed and make it up, telling Jacque
line that she could sleep in her own
crib as long as she liked, but being
sure to call the bed to her small
friends' attention, and tell them that
when she felt big enough to move
into it she was to have a surprise or
a story every night for a week, to
celebrate. How many of them had
real beds to sleep In? Poor little
Keith had to sleep in a basket, and
then he'd have to sleep in the crib
when Jacqueline was all finished
with it.
The first night she got into her
crib, but demanded a story. I said
that babies couldn't understand sto-
ries. but big girls did, so she must
wait until she moved into her own
room and bed. She moved the next
night, assuring the unconscious
Keith, as she swept past him with
books and woolly animals, that he
could have the old crib whenever he
wanted it.
"The third suggestion was that 1
give Jacqueline a little time all to
herself every day. As I had no nurse
and my daughter was In school un
til three, this was hard to find, but
we settled upon half-past six to sev-
en. Keith was in bed then, Daddy
not yet home. During this half-hour
she had her bath and supper, but
she had stories, too, and we did not
allow the telephone, doorbell or
Keith to Interrupt. If he fretted,
we ignored him. If a caller came,
Lily said I could not come down.
Girl Revelled In Personal Hour.
"I took this very seriously; nev-
er, for all the weeks we kept it
up, breaking into it even for a mes-
sage. She revelled in it; it had to
her all the charm of conspiracy.
Curiously enough, my suggestion
one night that there might someduy
be other children, when Keith might
have to give up the crib and sur-
render much of my attention to a
smaller baby, was tremendously sat-
isfying to her. Her exultation at
this idea was a revelation to me of
what she was—perhaps unconscious
ly—feeling toward him.
“ 'Then he’ll hear you talking to
that baby in the night,' she sold.
’And everyone will bring things for
that babyi’
“I pass this experience along to
other mothers," the letter con-
cludes, “because, simple as this cure
was, it was fundamentally impor-
tant. It established a priceless af-
fection and confidence between me
and my firstborn, and saved me
hours of worry and distress.”

Are you putting up many greens
and vegetables from your Victory
garden this year? In other years,
the first question we asked after
that, was, do you have a pressure
cooker?
You see, a pressure cooker is the
safest, most desirable method of
Lj u . putting up vege-
tmtn taijles which are
non - acid. The
reason: In most
soil there is a
deadly germ
called Botulinus
which attaches it-
^ self to vegetables
In the non-acid class, to which most
of them belong. Mr. Botulinus is
hard to destroy except by extreme
heat—which the pressure cooker
can give as most vegetables are
processed at an above-boiling point,
240 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let me go on record as saying
use the pressure cooker if you pos-
sibly can. Chances of your being 1 tuds and scalding

Deputy chief of staff, the youngest
officer ever to hold that post, McNar-
ney is generally considered a soldier
who talks only when he knows his
facts.
He was born In Pennsylvania
50 years ago. His father was a
lawyer, a tough prosecutor; his
mother an indomitable temper-
ance worker. After West Point
he switched in '15 to the signal
corps which then included the lit-
tle air arm we possessed. About
the same time he switched to
matrimony with a handsome
little school ma'am from San
Diego.
He was an air officer In France
through the little World war and
has been one ever since. Like other
top commanders of the American
army at this time, his permanent
rank is nothing much. The lieuten-
ant gencralcy is but a temporary
one, and unless our congress is
big hearted after peace Is declared,
he might drop back to colonelcy.
He Is a tall man and lean and
dark, with not much hair forward
any more. By some he has been
called dour, taciturn and ruthlcjss,
but his many good friends insist tfiat
the word "fair” be added.
'.rate the jar and thus destroy
iotulinus. To use the pressure
rocker, prepare the product, pre-
rook it and pack carefully in ster-
ilized jars. Adjust cap. Prepare
pressure cooker by pouring hot
water into the bottom of the cooker
up to the level of the rack. Place
tilled jars on rack, allowing for suf- !
ficient circulation of water around j
them. Be sure jars do not touch.
Place top on pressure cooker and j
clamp on tightly. Leave pet cock
open 7-10 minutes to exhaust all
steam in cooker, otherwise you will
not get correct pressure. After all
steam is exhausted, close pet-eock
and let pressure mount to desired de-
gree, then turn down heat, and
maintain pressure exactly or liquid
will be drained from Jars if pressure
is allowed to fluctuate.
When processing time is up, re-
move cooker from heat, let pressure
reach zero, then remove lid, so
steam does not hit you when cooker
is opened. Set jars on several thick-
ness of cloth or paper, and let cool,
without inverting.
Hot Water Bath.
A large, deep vessel with a tight-
fitting cover is best for making this
type of canner. Use a big kettle, a
lard can, a deep well cooker with
galvanized wire or rack at the bot-
tom of it to hold the jars one-half
inch from the bottom of the canner.
Before putting jars in canner. have
water boiling briskly. If the jars
lower the temperature and it stops
boiling when they're submerged, do
again. Test the Jars by tapping
gently on lid. If you get a high
ringing note, the jar is sealed and
may be stored.
Reasons for Spoilage.
Spoilage reasons are many and
may be traced to any part of the
canning procedure. Sometimes it is
easier to awrid failures if you know
what causes certain types of spoil-
age.

ripe, sterilization is difficult as bac-

Lym Says:
What to Do: Make rationing
work by using fresh fruits and
vegetables for canned whenever
possible. To save money, use
seasonal produce generously.
In main dishes that call for to-
matoes or tomato Juice, use fresh
tomatoes when in season, put up
home canned foods, or substitute
brown gravy.
Save and store excess water
from vegetables in a covered con-
tainer and use for flavoring soups,
stews and gravies.
Omit chili sauce and catsup in
recipes unless you have the home-
canned variety. Chopped green
pepper and relishes add pep to
salads and sandwich fillings with-
out taking ration points.
Cooked dressings or sour cream
dressings will help save your us-
ing too much oil fur salad dress-
ings.
Save every ounce of extra fat
frum meat. Use It for baking or
frying, or give It to the butcher.
teria may have
developed to a
degree which it
is not possible to
arrest. Use only
produce in prime
condition as you
get out of your
jars what you put
in them.
Washing all
vegetables and fruits before work-
ing will get rid of bacteria which
cling in the soil.
Unclean jars can work havoc with
your canning effort. Best remedy
for this is washing jars thoroughly
in clean soapy suds and then scald-
ing, and laying the jars inverted on
several thicknesses of clean towel
until ready to use. Lids should also
be sterilized.
Scaling.
Seal the cap according to the prin-
ciple on which it was made. A self-
sealing cap seals by vacuum cre-
ated by the cooling of the contents
of the jar, and the screw band does
not need tightening after processing.
Zinc caps nnd rubber bands should
be tightened.
Can for Health.
Fruits and vegetables are known
to be a rich source of health-giving
vitamins and minerals. Vitamin A
for example, so extremely essential
to children and adults alike, is found
in large quantities of certain fruits
and vegetables. Vitamin A promotes
growth; it helps to prevent eye dis-
eases: it helps guard against infec-
tions; it helps prevent night blind-
ness; it aids in the normal func-
tioning of glands; it Increases the
life span. From experimental stud-
ies it appears that if a child, during
the years from 3 to 10 is fed very
large amounts of vitamin A, he will
be less susceptible to the usual chil-
dren's diseases. A growing child
requires 3.000 International Units of
vitamin A daily; an adult ti.000 to
8,000 daily.
