State College Hints By RUTH CURRENT A piesrure cooker is a valuable piece of equipment—it saves time and fuel, there’s much less danger of losinjl food, and the high tem perature obtained in the pressure cooker destroys harmful bacteria found in the food. It is also a god time for the home maker to check on her supply of lids and rings. If the bands from two-piece closures were removed and .stored in a dry place, they will be ready for this season's use. The bands left on jars often rust and may be ruined in removing them from the jar. The next thing to check on is the supply of jars. If the boiling water canner is no Ipnger usable^ it’s time to begin looking for equipment to replace it. And if the home equipment includes a boiling water canner but there’s, no rack for it, now is the time to have a wooden one made. A rack allows the water to circulate freely around the jar. Much more even heat is given the jar by using a rack than using cloths or newspa pers under jars when boiling in the boiling water canner. There are small pieces of equip ment that make canning easier, such as tongs, jar lifters, and jar fillers. When cutting cookies for baking, arrange them on pieces of waxed paper, cut the exact size of the bak ing ^heet. Then as each batch of cookies is baked and taken from the oven, it can be removed, paper and all, from the cookie sheet. Just as simply can the next batch be placed on the sheet. This procedure saves time,'' and also makes it un necessary to grease the baking sheet. To keep lemons from wilting and shrinking, it is a good idea to store ithem in a cover jar in the refrige- rntor. iky End Of Month SPECIALS LARGE SELECTION OF LADIES COTTON HOUSE DRESSES Stripes, checks and prints in all sizes. $1.69 to .$5.95 — Second Floor — /, 'G I.ARGE ASSORTMENT LADIES N.- SLIPS Tailored and lace trimmed in sizes 32 to 40.
