STORE OF BEANS BEING CANNED BY THRIFTY II Fresh from tbe vines, into tin cans, labeled and numbered and sealed string beans $s traveling by a fart route these 4ays in the Medford Arm ory kitchen, where canning under auspices of tbe Jackson county relief committee la underway. With Mrs. Louis B. Humphry V chairman of the project, thousands of beans are anapped each day and sealed for winter consumption a thrifty women from all sections take advantage of the service offered by the relief committee to aid them to filling their larders for next winter At noon yesterday tha total for the preceding eight days had reached 3073 can and the Indications were that the number would be swelled by another 350 before the close of the day's canning. Each woman bringing beana to the kitchen for canning and each Is ex pected to bring in her own product is given a card number, which will be hers throughout the canning sea son. She brings In the card with her each time she returns to the kitchen. Each la also given a can ning number, which appears on every can of beans she places in the pres sure cooker, In order that a definite check on each family's supply may be kept. The .canning service Is extended as a relief measure exclusively, and only those persons who have accepted re lief from the county committee are Included In the project. It Is necessary for persons expect ing to take advantage of the service to register in advance, and proof of the popularity of the plan Is realized In the fact that every day next week ts already filled. Anyone wishing to can beans is therefore urged to make appointment for the following week as soon su possible. All are asked to call M21. Humphry at 993-J. La supervising the kitchen. Mrs. Humphrys is assisted each day by volunteer workers. The canners also aid each other and .each is held re sponsible for her own Man supply. The beans must be supped at the kitchen and all women ve warned against snapping them before bring ing them to the Armory. When this la done the product Is not accepted for canning. After tbe beans are snapped at the long table In the basement, they are taken Into the kitchen and washed at the sink, then placed In bleached sacks, which the women also furnish. On the sack the number Is placed, showing the owner of the beans. The sack la then plac ed In the boiler for 'bleaching of the beans. Following the bleaching, each woman transfers her beans Into cam carrying her number. They are then placed in the pressure cooker for the final step in the canning process. The work Is carried on systemat ically and quietly In the kitchen, with one of the workers operating the sealer, while tbe others prepare their beans and transfer them through the various processes. In addition to bringing tbe beans' to be canned, each woman Is re quired to furnl&b a kettle and a bleached flour sack. The cans ate furnished by the relief committee. While the beans are cooking time Is available for other work, and the women are Invited to bring sewing or mending with them to the Armory basement, which Is unusually cool. The canning begins at 8 o'clock in the morning and Is continued until the day's supply of beans Is sealed and ready for removal from the kitchen.

BREAD AND CAKES LIKE MOTHER MADE V' 8 AN ECHO FROM THE PAST TOMORROW we roll back the scroll of time when our food journey takes us to England's old time Midsummer festival one of the many happy early English customs that earned for England the title of "Merry Old England." And what a festival it was with the Midsummer beauty of nature augmented by her bounties the fruits the flowers the berries and the early farm crops the world seemed bright indeed to these toil ridden peo ple and the Mid-summer festival was perhaps even more joyous than the Yuletide. , The crowning triumph of the feast concluding this long forgotten old English festival has been preserved for us by a famous English chef. Tomorrow we span the hundreds of years separating us from this old festival and offer "Old English Bramble Cake".
