Dj cnieful attention to Miss Grovel formulas the canning can be done with the minimum of sugar, which Is very Important. Miss Groves' canning directions are: ....: "Food conditions are bringing many( new problems to the housf, wire. , The shortage of sugar should nut lusten the canning of fruit, since It Is possible to ' preserve without sugar. Dolling' water may be substituted for the usual sugar fcyrup iS caunlug fruits. The sugar enn he added as the fruit l open ed. Kuto corn syrup has proven a vciy successful substitute for su Kar.' Jellies. Jams or fruits will aave a slightly different flavor and be a little less sweet if preserved wltli karo, but will retain the fresh flavor of-' the fruit. "In UBiilng karo syrup as a sub stitute for sugar, an efiual meas ure of kuro should be used, or ono nii.y use half karo andhalf Btigar. Ail junis - and preserves may be made by. using three-fourths 01 loss of . the measure of fruit . in karo or mixed karo -and sugar., nit Juices for jellies require a bout three-fourths of the measure, in sutrar or karo and sugar. In using karo for jellies, it Is neces sary to cook the mixture longer. It should ' "sheet off" the, spoon when tested. The juices for Jel llis may he sealed (very hot and In heated containers) without ad ding any sugar, and the jolly may be made from this as needed III the winter by adding the usual niiiomu of sugar, which will then lie mora i plentiful. The cold pack method of can ning fruits and vegetables has pro ven successful and the housewife will find It an easier, safer method than the open kettle. Great caro should be exercised In the selectibn of the jars and that lids fit and that there are no nicks on Iho edge of the pars and that lids, fit and are in good condition. It is unsafo to uae old or doubtful rubbers. The wash boiler, with a wooden tack in . the bottom makes a good camiingbutflt for the cold pack method. Y': . - ; A very thing syrup for canning liny be made by using one cup of Uaro or, one cup of sugar to three cups of water, and boiling for five minutes. Ono cup of karo to two cups of water' makes a syrup .with a liltie more body, or one may use half the amount of the sweetening MMtIIMMHWMMnaHaBliMtMHMMHHMMIHM DOINGS OF THE DUFFS 'VW a v V a v 1 ....

In every community the snake is to be found hiding in the brush, to sling his victim, unprepared. We must clean out our community of these reptiles, and the only way to do so is with cooperation. The mail order house, like the snake, is always hiding, hitting his victim with poisonous prom ises which keeps back the growth of our community. This habit is cultivated by them with their catalogue values, which rarely come up to expectations. We must kill the snake to make our com munity habitable, and the weapon is the sword of cooperation. ,.
