Mad map--one is likely to go in the wrong direction. The wrong direction ~Jn canning leads to spoiled food--loss of canned food through spoilage is de'- plorable and unnecessary in time of peace, and inexcusable in time of war, Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director of Ball Brothers Company, gives the following sure-fire rule for3* i successful home-canning: ; ; 1. Use jars intended for home- * canning. Every one of them has a name lettered on the side. ' 1. Examine every jar to make £ sure that it is in good- conditio*!. ; Give special attention to the top ? ,«!dgcs of Mason jars. Most of them must be sealed with glass top sCal *•: closures or two-piece metal vacuum • seals, because the zinc that used to •| go into the pne-piece Mason caps has gone to the battle front. The glass top and vacuum seals can take 7 •' the zinc cap's place on the home front only when used on jars with perfect top edges. 3. Do not stretch rubbers to test. 4. Wash and rinse jars, lids and rubbers. Then cover jars, zinc caps, and glass lids with lukewarm water, heat to boiling', and keep hot. Jars and lids to be used for old-fashioned open-kettle canning must be boiled 20 to 30 minutes. Wash rubbers and vacuum-seal lids, drop into boiling water, and keep hot until needed if to be used for processing (cooking food in jars). They must be boiled to sterilize for open-kettle canning. . 5. Get canners and jars ready before starting to prepare Vegetables. 6. Use vegetables that are fresh from the garden. The alien enemies, ---'--mould, yeast and bacteria, stand ready to sabotage any and all vegetables left standing over night or all through a long, hot morning. 7. Be sure that everything to be Canned is at the right stage for . canning. Shelled beans and peas should be young and tender--a few over-siTe or over-mature ones can cause the loss of the whole batch. The pods of string beans should be crisp and meaty--corn in full milk stage--and tomatoes red-ripe, firm, and sound. Wash all fruits and vegetables before breaking the skins. 8. Hot pack all vegetables except tomatoes. Hot pack means to cook the food a few minutes, then pour it into hot jars for processing. This is also the best way to can most fruits. 9. Fill no more jars at a time than your canner will hold. 1 Mr. and Mrs. Herman Dunker and family of Capron were Sunday dinner guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Vasey. Don't forget the annual Volo picnic and chicken dinner Sunday, July 25th, sponsored by the St. Peter's Some years ago while visiting a tuberculosis sanitarium, I came •cross a patient, ah amateur heavy weight boxer, who calmly informed me that he expected to stay two years in order to allow his lung to become completely healed. At that time the pneqrttothorax method, in which gas pressure is used to cause the infected lung to /est, was, used mostly in advanced cases. More recently, other methods of resting the lung by causing it to collapse have come into use, such as cutting the nerve that controls the lung and removing a portion of several ribs. As many patients aire naturally anxious to get "cured" quickly, the question naturally arises as to why shouldn't these short methods of resting the lung be always used in- 10.

From their findings, these physicians agree with those physicians who advise early collapse treatment with "advanced" tuberculosis. What about the use of collapse treatment in the beginning or early cases? In early tuberculosis they believe that rest, rest in bed, is the treatment most needed to bring about recovery. The disease was stopped or arrested in 78 per cent of these early cases by bed rest. Treatment by collapse--gas pressure, nerve cutting, removal of ribs --should be used in cases only when the disease gets worse, tubercle germs are found in the- sputum, where there is no improvement after a long period of bed rest, or when hemorrhages occur. As there are many patients who think bed rest treatment is too slow, and perhaps members of the family who think,that treatment at home or the outdoor clinic is as effective as hospital or sanitarium treatment, I. think the findings of these research physicians should be made known. Don't Issue License For Shite Has My Ring* McMINNVILLE, ORE.-- "Please don't issue a marriage license to a couple from Rainier, Ore.," said the plaintive voice on the phone to the county clerk.

The accident illustrated here Is an actual occurrence and ia typical of a large volume of those that of tea result in tragedies. A freight train was approaching a crossing in a small city. As the train neared the main thoroughfare, an automobile carrying three young men approached the crossing, speeded up and dashed by the warning bells and flashing light signals in an attempt to beat the train over the crossing. They lost the race, Two of them lost their livesj and the other was critically injured. They gambled and lost, r 1 » : As the train was brought to a stop, the engineer climbed down out of his cab and, reporting to the police authorities, said: "I've got 41 cars'of war explosives behind me. I couldn't put on the brakes fast because I was afraid I would set it off." The local police authorities, after investigating, said that the explosives were powerful enough to have destroyed the small city and caused a tremendous loss of life. In more than 80 per cent of thea^ accidents, the crossings have added protection, such as flashing light signals and bells, as was the i y e CHEYENNE, WYO--Cattle rustlers, operating in large, speedy trucks, are again raiding herds on the isolated plains of Wyoming and selling the meat at high prices-- usually on the black market. Stockmen's associations in Wyoming and the state Office of Price Administration concur in the. belief that the cattle-thief has returned to the West. Russell Thorp, secretary of the Wyoming Stock Growers association, says there have been reports' of more cattle disappearing during recent months than at any time in the past decade. Thorp says one rancher reported 40 head missing. Inspectors for the association retport they are finding a number of the missing cattle at markets across the state. Usually the new "owner" has disappeared and the association sells the cattle, distributing the funds to the cattlemen's organization. The OPA reports greatly enlarged "bootleg" selling of meat which had not been inspected, graded or authorized for sale. They believe the meat may well be from the cows stolen by rustlers operating at night on the lonely cattle ranges where guard protection is virtually impossible. One OPA spokesman said the rustlers probably were slaughtering the cattle and quartering the carcasses as they rolled along--selling the meat to individual customers and stores who are willing to trade on such a "black market" in ungraded and uninspected beef. - Despite the losses, the bureau of agricultural economics reports that livestock on Wyoming ranches and farms was valued at 19 per cent more than at the same time last year. The total value of all cattle, sheep, hogs, hprses and poultry on January 1, 1943, was $113,027,000. And Wyoming ranchers say they will carry shotguns and high-pow- >ered rifles to keep the modern rustlers away from such a rich loot.

W Ses vice) 0u</- WAR. &OND* 61 FT ^fortkg BRIDE Ringing of Ears A few years ago when an Individual had tinnitis--ringing in the earsit was felt that, as there was often some deafness present, the deafness was the cause of the tinnitis. Accordingly, the ear specialist treated the ear for any condition that might be causing the deafness, and when improvement in hearing resulted there was often soma decrease in the tinnitis. Among the causes of tinnitis and partial loss of hearing are (a) wax or "cerumen in the outer ear lying against the eardrum, (b) partial blocking of the eustachian tube which carries the air from the back of the throat to the middle ear against innier side of eardrum, and (c) too much liquid in the tissues adjoining the balancing canals of the ears. This latter condition also causes dizziness, nausea and vomiting, and partial losS of hearing; it is called Meniere's disease. The treatment" for these three conditions causing tinnitis is: 1. The removal of the wax by j placing olive oil or half strength ' hydrogen peroxide in the ear, al- j lowing it to remaia-for a few min- I utes, and then drivi/ig out the soft- , ened wax with a hot baking soda ! solution, using a powerful syringe, j 2. The eustachian, tube is opened 1 by means of an air syringe which j not only blows the tube open but i removes to some extent the moisture ' which is sticking the lining surfaces ' i of the tube together. j 3. The treatment of Meniere's disease is by cutting down on all liquids and table salt and avoiding or cut- I ting down on salty foods. Foods . to be avoided are bread, salted but- I ter, crackers, eggs, • all corned, 1 pickled, smoked or salted foods, j Foods that are low in salt and can j be eaten are apples, asparagus, cabbage, lettuce, graders, lemons, or- 1 anges, honey, jelly, unsalted bread and butter. That eystrain could cause tinnitis will come as a surprise to many of us, but Dr. J. R. Noyes, Brockton, Mass., in "Laryngoscope" states that he has relieved several patients of annoying symptoms by correcting ' eyestrain due to short-sightedness, , i and astigmatism. Fine Farmer for Wasting ; Perfect Plowing Weather MACON, GA. -- A Bibb county farmer appeared in Recorder George M. Nottingham's court on charges Of drunkenness and was fined $25 for "wasting perfect plowing weather by being drunk." Ten days ago Recorder Nottingham decided that something ought to be done about the number of absentees from Macon's war industries appearing before his court--so he started a one-man campaign against absenteeism.
