Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director for Ball Brothers Company and editor of the famous Blue Book of home canning recipes, recently expressed the opinion that most canning failures would be avoided if people could be made to understand that, in canning, little things hlvi Dig point# ' value. She also eta tad, "There is no abort cut to successful home canning, but careful planning ahead of tine takes the drudgery out of the lob. Care ful attention to reliable Instructions at the time (of canning) puts success into it" Use Proves Quality jar Select any style jar you like but be sure it Is a home canning or "fruit jar" and that It la a nationally known brand. There la no excuse for a slip up on this because the name of both }ar and maker is moulded Into the side of all lars intended for home canning. A sheet of Instructions, telling how to use them. Is packed with each dozen jars. The Instructions should be fol lowed. If this were not important, there would be no instructions because printing and putting them in the car tons cost toe manufacturer a lot of money. Jars, caps, and lids which have been used before should be examined care fully for nicks and cracks, naslied clean In warm, soapy water, rinsed, and then boiled twenty or more minutes and kept hot until needed. And re member, please. ]ars should be ready I and waiting for the food which is to be canned. Never, never keep fruhj and vegetables waiting for either Jlrs or canner because bacteria and other or ganisms of spoilage overtak^ruits and vegetables when there' is unneces sary delay anywhere between garden er orchard and canner. Vegetables may look firvah after a sight out of the garden, but toy no IMi ? ?* ' - 'J' : ? ' rVl . -? -.-'?.?Z. .- J longer here strength to resist bacteria, yeasts and moulds which causa them to spoil Fruit which is taken from the tree and permitted to ripen In storage may keep but its flavor won't be right Pears are an exception to this rule?they should be removed from the tree and ripened hi a cool spot. A countless number at apricots and peaches have bean erastod because borne canners haven't understood that such fruit must be tree ripened It It ! is to have a good flavor after canning. All tree-grown fruit should be washed : carefully through two waters before its . skin Is broken. If not washed off, chemicals used to keep insects away from the fruit may give an unnatural ' flavor to the canned product, a flavor which some persons have confused with that of rubber! I Beff Bobbers In Beds Another little point to rememberl Some authorities advise that wartime Jar rubbers be boiled twenty minutes In a solution made by dissolving a heaping teaspoon at baking soda in a pint of water for each doxen rubbers to be treated. The rubbers should be rinsed well before using. When asked about this, Miss Klmbrough stated that she had used no rubbers which needed such treatment, but that boiling In soda could do no harm and might do aome good if the rubbers seem to have aa unusual amount of odor. She cautioned against stretching rubbers to test them. This rule also applies to pre-war rub bers. It is false economy to use any rubber more then once. i ?

Governor Cherry urged these patriotic citizens to "see 'the job through to the finish," adding that 'the end of the fighting in the Pacific does not eliminate the need for continued vigilance on the home front. The Governor's statement in hill: "Since December 1941, when the Governor of North Carolina First set up tire rationing boards In every county, thousands of patriotic persons have given their time and services in adminis tering our wartime rationing and price control programs. Many of them have been on the job for more than three years and all of hem are doing their jobs with >ut thought of compensation and ivithout fanfare, some at a per sonal sacrifice. "The work these people have lone, and are doing, is a direct contribution to the welfare of our state and nation. With the end of the fighting in the Pacific and the coming of peace all of the conditions that make price, rent control, and rationing necessary will not be immediately' done away with. "Many persons through thoughtlessness will want to see the controls thrown wide open and the pressure* for inflation? that have been butt tip in other parts of the world?hit our state. This means that the job J the volunteer workers, and others in OP A, havelfco do is not yet finished. The end of the war means that fthe job has been fin ished on foreign soil, but there remains work to be done here un less all the good that has been ac- fj complished thus far is Met. The way in which the job is completed will determine the direct results. n "As Governor of the State of North Carolina, I, R. Gregg Cher ry, do ask that these patriotic citizens, and others who might care to contribute to the cause in the future, continue Ito lend all that is in their power to complete the fight against inflation and unfair distribution urttil such a time theft such controls are Uft necessaary." "Our board chairmen, clerks, and volunteer workers have done a good job, Lefs see the job through to the finish." A Good Place To Meet A Better Place To Eat Nick's Cafe ORAHAM, N. O.
