WISCONSIN AT WAB
When the war started, Wisconsin
relaxed Its labor standards to per
mit women to work nights and IT
rear-old boys to work in canneries.
It reduced strikes from 69 In 1M1
with a loss of 521,319 man-days to a
very small figure and introduced ef
fective safety measures. It all tdds
up to vastly stepped-up production
of food and a greater future for in
dustry in the state. Wisconsin cans
more peas and raises more hemp
than any other state. It has more
dairy cows. It's America's ability

Can Corn Fresh and a Little

Corn is a stumbling block tor many an otherwise successful

elder* It far from eaty to pertuade
the general public to adopt practice*
and procedure* which give satisfactory
return.
If you have never canned com but
want to thla aeaaon became of ration
ing. or if you hava tried and failed,
you may profit by following Ml** Kim
brpugh'* advice. In an Informal dl?
cunlon of the subject *he laid. "Sweet
com, particularly the deep yellow, I*
rich In flavor and food value, but field
com can* a* well, keep* a* well, a*
the garden varietle* and 1* the pref
erence of many peraon* who could. If
they cboie, grow a patch of tweet com
for table u*e. So. take your choice but
don't pay your money unlet* you know
the com 1* fresh from the (talk and
that It la at the most perfect atag* for
table me. At thla itag* the kernel*
are plump, thirty, and all but bunting
with mOk-Uke juice.
Can Cera Early
A* com mature*, the milk give* way
to a (ubatance called dough. Then
people lay the com l* too hard and
they tay right became it It hard to
keep It by canning once It hat patted
from the full milk to the dough atage.
Bacteria, particularly thoaa which
cause flat aour, like warm com. Thle ia
one big reason why it doesn't pay to
gather, prepare, and can com by the
"wagon load." Flavor ia another good
reason for the can-a-little-at-a-time
rule. Com loses its sweetness mora
rapidly than any other vegetable with
the possible exception of green peas.
This tact, plus bacteria's special lik
ing for corn which has stood several
hours, explains the wisdom of the old
slogan, "two hours from garden to can
ner."
Jars. caps, lids, rubbers, canner and
all other utensils needed should be
ready for use when the com is brought
In for canning.
It is a waste at time, energy, and
food to put anything in a Jar which
can't be sealed airtight. The smallest
nick or crack can cause trouble, so
smart home camera take time to ex
amine the sedUng surface at every jar
and lid. Jars, caps, glass lids and
rubbers should be washed in warm
soapy water, rinsed, covered with
warm water and then boiled. One can't
be too clean about canning. Used Jars,
caps, and lids should be boiled 10 to
10 minutes. New ones need only be
brought to boiling and kept hot.
Any Jar, cap, lid, and rubber worth
using is worth using by the manufac
turer's instructions. Such instructions
are given on a circular uaifced with
the jars and printed ea dsn cap ear

a cutting board. A wall scrubbed plank
will do If you have nothing better.
When everything la ready lay an ear
of corn on the board, then use the
strong knife to cut through husks, com
and cob at each end of the tar. Neat,
stand the etr upright and use both
hands to peel aft the husks. If eased
along with the thumbs, most of the silks
will come off with the wrappings. This
method may sound troublesome, but
after you get the hang of It you will
find the work goes faster and with
much less muss than when the husking
Is done In the usual way.
Discard any aar of com which seems
a bit hard. Rinse and drain the eon
after It hap been freed of alike, then
cut?don't saw?the kernels from the
cob, taking care not to cut the cob.
This Is where you need that small
sharp knife.
The danger of spoilage Is far less
when whole kernels are used. Cream
style Is made by slicing the tips of the
kernels and than scraping out the pulp.
It Is folly to can cream style unless
one has a steam pressure cooker with
an accurate gauge.
Pint iiu iara are beat for anv kind
of corn and practically a mult tor
cream style. because heal pastes
throufh corn slowly.
It doesn't do to keep edtn waiting Its
turn in the canner. If you happen to
have some left over because of faulty
Judgment In estimating the amount
needed to fill the jars, put It In the
refrigerator to keep cool until the next
batch can go Into the canner.
Adding Water Essential
Be sure to add one and one-quarter
cup boiling water to each four cups of
whole kernel corn and two cups of boil
ing water to each tour of cream style.
The water Is needed to help the heal
get through the corn In a hurry and to
prevent the oorn turning brown.
That brown color and overcooked fiavot
you dislike la caused by caramellzatioc
of the corn sugar. This doesn't hap
pen when the corn la young and Juicy,
enough water la used, and the process
ing done at the right temperature.
Most persons llks about oos-half tea
spoon of salt to each pint of corn. A
little sugar won't hurt anything, not
will It hurtotf you forget the salt. Th4
amount used la too small to help pro
vent spoilage.
Some persons manage to oan com b]
processing It three and a half to tou
hours In a hot-water bath canner bu
