2. Meat for canning may be /
acked into the jars .either raw |
r practically cooked. The proessing
time will be the same in
ither case but it will take the
aw meat longer to reach the deired
pressure. g
3. Precooking may be done by
earing the meat in fat, by parially
roasting it, or by parboilag.
Meat to be canned should not
e cooked more than half done,
t should not be seasoned before
ooking.
4. Cut meat into pieces of cona<
enient size for packing and pack o]
>osely into hot sterilized jars. 10,
.rrange the pieces to allow for J w
eat penetration. This applies to U
oth seared and raw meats. Salt si
i added in the same proportion bi
> all meats. Two level teaspoon- ol
lis to each quart. Pepper may be tl
dded sparingly if desired. I si
5. Sausage, liver, fried chicken I ol
nd fish should be packed dry. All [ ei
ther precooked meats should be oi

6. Do not add liquid to meat | s<

Storing Cabbage
And Collards For
Winter
(By H. R. Niswonger)
Dig a trench deep enough tc
^commodate the roots and stems
! the plants and set the collards
at in the trench just as you
ould if setting young plants in
le field. Cover both the roots and
:ems with soil. The heads may
i set close enough for the leaves
T each successive plant to touch
le preceding one, but the plants
lould not be packed against each
:her. The trench may be wide
lough to accommodate one, twc
three rows of plants. Set a
>ard or plank on edge on each
de of the trench and bank on
le outside with soil. Cover with
ine brush or cornstalks. When
svere weather arrives, it might
s advisable to throw a light lay
of soil over the brush or corn;alks.
When kept in this way
le plants may bleach to some
ctent, but this shouldn't impaii
leir quality.
Another method commonly usee
i Eastern North Carolina consts
of pushing the heads ovei
award the north and covering
le stem and base of the heads
ith soil. . The plants are thus
" *>-- ? fV,o,
lit rig XIL ill txic IUW YYiici*, w??s?j
rew.and they usually keep quit*
ell. I would suggest that yoi
y both methods and see whicl
orks out best.
STORING CABBAGE
Cabbage may be stored In ?
lanner similar to collards ir
astern Carolina. In Western Car
lina where extreme freezing wea
ler occurs, the following methoc
f storing is practiced. Dig ?
rallow pit about six inches deei
ad six feet wide. The lengtl
f the pit will vary in propor
on to the quantity stored. Ridg(
oles or wood slabs are then laic
cross the shallow pit in order t<
jpport the cabbage heads. Open'
lgs are made thru the sides ol
le pit to provide for bottoir
entilation. These ventilating
penings are closed during ex
-eme freezing weather. A shal
>w trench should be made arounc
ae pit as an outlet for carry
tg off the water.
The cabbage heads with roote
ttached are placed with head:
own and slightly separated froir
ach other. A shallow layer o:
traw is spread over the ridge
oles or slabs before cabbage
eads are placed. After the cab
age has been piled a foot layei
f straw is spread over the pile
f cabbage followed by a foo
tyer of dirt. Alternate layers o
traw and dirt will be needed
epending upon the severity o:
old weather.
ot invert jars to cool. Store ii
cool dry place. All canned meat:
hould be cooked for at least tei
tinutes before using.
XNOie: wnen canning in tin un
emperature of the meat shouk
e 170 degrees F. before sealing
o Insure a good vacuum. Us<
lain tin cans for meats and poul
ry.

to confirmation by a rebellious

It is decidedly important
Mr. Roosevelt's plans to have

i baccos is estimated as 1,484,700,- j
000 ? i percent less than last t
! year's production. In recent '
months business has shown im- j
. provement and a further increase
! in consumer buying power is ex- j
pected during the next year or
: more. This should result in larger
consumption of tobacco products,
. particularly of cigarettes,
t For flue-cured growers the
' Bureau hangs up a caution sign.
^ It points out that unless 1939
1 production is somewhat smaller
than production this year the
' market situation in 1939-40 will
be less favorable than in the
present season. In the case of
' fire-cured and dark air-cured
" types, stocks on Oct. 1, 1939 are
expected to be fairly well in line
with consumption prospects.
Stocks of cigar types may be
i reduced slightly bv Oct. 1st next
t year, largely because of storm
i losses to the 1938 crop in the
. Connecticut Valley. The Bureau '
. suggests that a total cigar acre- 1
i age in 1939 about the same as in
i 1938, with average growing con- .
r ditions, would result in a pro- j
duction not greatly different from
i prospective disappearance. '
For the Burley areas a further
. large increase in stocks is expect>
ed by October of next year. Total
supplies of Burley in 1939-40 will
1 be large relative to disappearance
unless production in 1939 is re;
duced from the high level of 1938
and 1937.
Maryland's estimated 1938 pro!
duction is reported slightly larger
r than prospective disappearance.
The foreign situation for Maryland
tobacco continues unfavorable
and stocks, which already are
adequate, likely will show a small
b increase on January 1st, 1940.
