THURSDAY, ;UNE SM, 1§4r m Hello Homemakers! From all ,the foods in good condition at çeasonable cost, the wisc home- .maker will select those that she knows she can preserve safely. Some foods are casier to can than others. Fruits and tomatoes are *the easiest foods to preserve by ~-Canning because they contain acids which make the heat more Seffective in killing the yeasts, molds and bacteria that cause spoilage. Before commencing to can, it is important to see that the nec- *essarq equipment is on hand and in good order. Glass sealers must be inspected and those with any nicks put aside for jams. Rubber rings and defective metal bands 'should be replaced and the bails sbould have good spring for pre- serves; the others can be put aside for pickles. The waterbath can- ner should be deep enough to al- low water to cover the sealers. This provides sufficient pressure ta prevent the liquid from being drawn out, or let into the sealers. Scrub sealers and glass lids ýwith a brush in hot, soapy water and rinse well with clear, bot water. Sterilize by placing in a pan <with glass lids in place) in the oven with bottom beat on or "Jbake" position. It requires 25 minutes at 275 degrees to steri- lize jars in electrie oven. Remove from oven as needed and place on dry c]otb to fill. The solld pack metbod is espe- cially recommended for raspber- ries, gooseberries, rhubarb, blue- bernies and cherries. Wash, pre- pare fruit and measure. Make a medium thin syrup-1 cup sugar te 11/2 cups of water which makes ,2 cups syrup and you need 1/2 cup -. syrup for' each pint jar or small fruit. Precook bernies in syrup 3 minutes then pack in jars, seal and plate in a pan in the electric aoven at 275 degrees. Process pints for 20 minutes; quarts for 25 min- utes. Remove from oven and let cool, then check for airtight test; label and store. Raw Canning method may be used for raspberries, strawberries ànd rbubarb. Pack raw fruit in sterile sealers and cover to aver- flowing with boiling syrup. Com- pletely seal. Cover bottom of a tub witb several layers of news- papers and place these filled jars in. Pour boiling water down the înside of the tub-enougb to caver tops of sealers by three inches. Place a blanket or mat over the tub. Leave 10 to 12 bours. Remove, cool, turn upside a mno- ment te, test wbetber air-tight, then store. TAKE A TIF SDo flot process tin cans in the oven. Wben processing tin cans in boiling water bath, al- low same time for 20-ounce tins as pints. For larger size tins saine time as quarts. 2If pressure canner is used for fruits, use the eald pack metb- od and allow 5 minutes at 5 lbs. pressure for ail sealers and tin cans. 3. Dry sugar cani be used instead ai syrup for small fruits. For small fruit the equivalent for each quart is 2/3. cup white sugar sprinkled over top of partially filled jar, then fili with berrnes to 1/2 inch of top. SWEET CAPORAL C IGAR [Il S This allows space ta bail with- out cracking jars. 4. There are about 15 lbs. of strawberries in 24 pint boxes or one crate. Prom these you ob- tain from 9 to il quarts of bernies. 5. A six quart basket of cherries weigbs about 8 lbs. The number af quarts you may expect to can is about five. % 6. Twelve quarts of gooseberries, blueberries, etc., will take 12 qt. jars to fill or 22 pints. 7. If an airtight seal bas not been formed use fruit before it spoils, since further cooking will reduce the flavour. THE QUESTION BOX Mrs. J. K. asks: What makes canned peas cloudy? Answer: Cloudiness may be due to over-cooking or using too mature peas. They will not spoil unless further indication of bub- bles occur Mrs. M. C. says: I always rol my jars of strawberries ta prevent floating fruit but it does not pre- vent it tbis year. Why? Answer: This may be due to too beavy syrup or over-cooking. Rolling does not prevent f loating. Anne Alian invites you to write ta ber c/o The Canadian States- man. Send in your suggestions on homemaking problcms and watch this column for replies. Outdoors Editor Gives Tip to Wives On Hubby'sFishing By PETE MeGILLEN In The Toronto Telegram Did you ever bear of a woman dying from coronary thrombosis? No, sir, sucb cases are as scarce as hen's teeth. But the men, hmmm, this disease is knocking tbern off like ten pins, and in the early forties, too. Now why is that so? Well, a woman gets mar- ried, lives a sbeltered life and gets fat. She gets her work donc in the morning, and either sleeps or plays bridge in the afternoon. At nigbt she makes ber dog-tired busband. go to a show or a dance -wbich she enjoys and the old man endures. This is just another straw added to the camel's-I mean busband's back. Moreover, and this is important, the woman is king of ber castle. She is boss in ber own home. She isn't a slave under some Simon Legree wbo cracks the wbip from morning until night. She is not subject to the stress and strain of modemn business. In short, she is not af- raid of losinig ber job. The husbands haven't time to worry about their health, they are too busy pushing their noses against the grindstone. Tbey can't take a nap in the afternoon. Tbcy can't even sleep Saturdays, be- cause that is the day the Qucen takes over and gives orders. "'Put up the screens, cut the grass, weed the garden, fix the hinges on the front door, wash the windows, paint the verandah." Then, in the face af this tremendous pressure, the poor guy, prematurely old, curîs up like a withered leaf'and dies-of coronary tbromh-osis. So, hig fresh young wif e, cashes the insurance, and bcing remarkablv, well-preserved marries s o m e other guy, and keeps ber job-as boss. Wbat can be donc? 1 tbink thc answer is "escape." I don't mean ta bit the rods and forsake the good, kind littie woman. But still the bubbies need escape from work, from people, from noise, from civilization, from those week- end chores. And the place ta go -wby fishing, of course. After ail, girls, that harmlesý-looking slave yau married is arL învestment worth protecting.

Girl's Chances 0f Marriage Are Better In West than East The St. Lawrence is usually thought of as Canada's longest river but, it is stated in the 1949 issue of Quick *Canadian Facts, the St. Lawrence is less than haif the length of another Canadian river. The Mackenzie River, the new book points out, 2,500 miles long and draining into the Arc- tic Ocean, is Canada's longest. A girl's chances of getting mar- ried, says the new reference vol- ume, are more than ten per cent better if she lives in the West than if she lives down East; this is a fact because the ratio of men to women is and always has been higher in the west than in the east. When Newfoundland and Labrador became part of Canada we added a province that is three tîmes as large as Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and P.E.I. com- bined-but it's a fact that there are fewer people living in the new province (320,000) than in the single city of Vancouver with its suburbs (350,000.) Sucb are some ai the interest- ing facts about Canada contained in the 1949 edition of Quick Can- adian Facts, released this week. In its fifth year of publication, the 40,000-word reference book con- tains information about Canada's constitution and government, ab- out the ter provinces and the Ter- ritories, about taxes, transporta- tion, communications, forestry, mining, agriculture, manufac- turing, trade, geography, industry, the Canadian population, and many other subjects.
