GOVERNOR'S MANSION South Carolina's governor's man sion at Columbia is clothed in his tory and romance that links the old and the new Souths.

Simple In construction, l It is cooled by dense foliage of the beautiful trees snuggling close. War Bonds have maintained a defense against injury to this historic gem , and will guard it safely to peace. U. S. Trtajuty Uti^rimcnl I i OPENING FRUIT JARS EASY WHEN YOU KNOW HOW So you can't get 'em open? Well I maybe you thought that circular I with the jars was advertising mat I ter and threw it away without read r lag. Don't worry, we will tell you about opening jars and sealing them | too, because chances are that part ? of the trouble with opening is due ? to failure to follow instructions for sealing. Surely you know about I sterilizing everything, leaving plenty | of head space, and having the rub bers wet. So we will skip that part. There are two types of home can ning jars, and all have a trade nam* ? lettered in the side. The ones with - screw-thread necks are Masons, r Those with glass lids held in place f with wire bails arc lightning type j or Ideals. Mason jars are used with one piece zinc caps and rubber rings, or r with two-piece metal vacuum seals, or with glass top seal caps. The [. glass top seal is sometimes called a [. three-piece cap because it is made . up of glass lid, rubber ring and metal band. When sealing a Mason jar with '* zinc cap, place a rubber flat on the '? sealing surface (you may call it a shoulder or ledge), screw the zinc 11 cap down tight, then turn it back r, about half an inch. This is done to ' prevent steam forcing the rubber out I of place or causing the cap to bulge. The eep is screwed tight as soon as " the jar is taken out of the canner. Use Pliers to Open Jar The easiest way to get the jar |* open it to use pliers to pull the rub ?? ber out. Small dime store pliers are ., best for this because friend husband jl won't be tempted to borrow them i when he has to ft* the fence. If you ' hasre no pliers, the next best way ii to run the sharp point of a knife urn der (not over) the rubber, wiggh S, the knif* sidewise (not up and <j down), then unscrew the cap. If yot |_ can't manage this, turn the jar up . side down in hot water for Ave min [lygaatmi ^ ? J i IDOC OWNERSHIP VARIES WITH SZEOF COMMUMITl !1 farm fatni/fes having <fags'79\ /k.

I I DOG AN OMNIVORE OR A CARNIVORE? Meal as Part of Well-Balnnced Diet Found More Beneficial Than Meat Alone Science is revising its ideas on the nature of the dog and his nutritional requirements, says the Gaines Dog Research Center, New York City. Most people, even dog experts, nave ( thought of the dog as a carnivorous animal. Actually, the dog's digestive tract is definitely that of an omnivore ! ?the same order of life to which man belongs. That the dog's metabolic processes are much like those of man has been pointed out by such emi nent researchers in the field of nutri tion as Prof. C. A. Elvehjem of the University of Wisconsin and Prof. Clive M. McCay of Cornell Univer 2&. In support of the new view these tacts have been cited: 1. There are in the United States great numbers of dogs that have j passed through their whole lives in; good health without tasting fresh meat or raw bones. 2. At the Alabama Polytechnic In stitute, gorxl growth in dogs has been obtained on a diet which contained no meat at all. S. In vsrloi>s oth|c experiments it has been "-.?ad jflet straight red muscle me=. ? fed under our civil ized condition*, is far from being ? complete food?In tact, it is far laas satisfactory than meat fed as part of a well-balanced diet In hit authoritative work, "Nutri tion of the Dog," Prof. McCay states that a dog kept on a modern dry food receives the identical good nour ishment as a dog in the wild state who subsists on, let us say, rabbits? head, fur and all. The bonemeal in the dog food provide* the required calcium and phosphorus. The meat scraps, milk products or soybeans in the dog food furnish the protein otherwise provided by the mnsrles ? | of the rabbit. The corn or wheat products provide the carbohydrates which the wild animal would have to get from the plant products in the stomach of the rabbit. And the eod livcr oil or concentrates mixed in With the good dry food provide the vitamins which the dog In the wfld state obtains from the rabbifs livfr. The condition of America's dogs after three years of war amply sub stantiates Prof. McCay's thesis, ac cording to the Center. When the manufacture of canned dog foods was discontinued in 1942, many dog own ers approached tbe task of changing their pets' diet with trepidation and fear. But they could have saved themselves needless worry, as their experience proved. The dogs not only , took readily to the diy foods but pro : ceeded to thrive on them. Because of their success with dry dog foods, there is now a big question whether canned dog foods will ever again re gain the leadership they hela before I the war, it is stated. . I Glass Top Seal Caps, put the rubber i flat around the rim on the under side , (top side has the name on it) of the . lid, then place the lid so the rubber lies flat between the top of the jar and the lid. Screw the metal band tight and then loosen by turning it back one-fourth turn. This band must be loose while the jars are in the canner. (Failure to keep this in mind has caused a lot of painful burns.) They are tightened after processing. The metal bands should be taken off the jars the next day after the canning is done. Yes, if the manufacturer's instructions are followed, the jars will stay sealed without the bands. When ready to open, run the sharp point of a knife between the top of the Jar and the rubber. Move knife sidewise as moving it up and down is likely to damage both jar and lid. Opening Vacuum Seals When using Mason Jars with vao uum seals, place the lid white side down so that the scaling compound rests on top of the jar. Screw the metal band tight as it will go with ordinary hand pressure snd leave It that way until the next day. Then take it off and leave it off. No, you don't tighten the band again after processing. Metal lids, especially those which are slightly rounded or domed, are flexible. The compound is softer than s jar rubber. The flexible lid and soft compound p< mft steam and air io ?*?p out durSjT processing. That's why the bands are tightened before processing and need not be tightened again. When ready to open the jar, flip the lid off with a bottle opener, or punch a hole in it and pry it off. The hole is all right because vacuum; seal lids should never be used a second time. When using a lightning type or Ideal jar, put the rubber flat on the sealing surface. Keep the lip out of the way of the wires. Place the Hd so that it rests on the rubber. Ths? pull or push the long wira up until it fits in the groove on top of the ltd. Leave the short wire up while the jar is in the canner. Push it down against the aide of the jar just as soon as you take the jar out of the canner. When ready to open, push the low er bail up and the upper bail down, then pull the rubber out with pliers or rub the sharp point of a knife un der the rubber, but remember mov ing the knife up and down may chip the jar or lid. e--- ------ ....
