Home Canners Plan To Save More Food With about 400,000 steam pressure canners and 500 000 water bath can ners to be produced in 1944, the home conservation of vegetables and fruits should reach new heights this year to help overcome the shortage of commercially canned foods, says Mary Lee McAllister. Extension Eco nomist in Food Conservation at Stal College She points out that glass jars and I tops manufactured for home rnnnintr uus year will be of the same types as last year- Since zinc supplies are more ample now, the familiar porcelain-lined zinc lid that fits standard mason-size jars will be manufactured again. Then too, manufacturers of the commercial "63" jars promise well distributed supplies of metal sealing oisks 10 nt jars with this smaller- sized mouth. When these jars that are suitable for re-use in home can ning are saved, it is also neceaaarv to save the metal screw caps that originally came on the jars. The jar cap must be screwed flnum avav new, flat metal disk to complete the iiume canning seal. And the rubber jar rings for 1944 will be made of reclaimed rubber and synthetics. No crude rubber will go into jar rinsrs this venr ' Thaaai n.i-. time rings require somewhat differ ent handling from that recommended m pre-war years, Mrs. McAllister points out To can food at home in tin calls for a can sealing machine, she says. The families who own such sealers will in all likelihood be able to buy plenty of tin cans, because no limit is set on the manufacture of them for home canning.

In the eighty-four years, of her life, the last our of which were spent in confinement due to ill health, she exemplified natinnro culture and chirstian consistency. and in her quiet, gentle way she lived a life of love and service which was an inspiration to all who knew her. She was a charter member of the Society and until her declining years, was always present with a smile and a cheerful expression. in sincere appreciation of her de vout faith and loyalty we bow in humble, submission to the Divine Will. and extend to the family and loved ones our deep sympathy and com mend them to her God.

Increased amounts of nitrogen are available for 1944 and growers will have a better opportunity of increas ing yields through topdressing. "In creased returns from fertilizer can be expected when the crop is planted on time in a well-prepared seed bed," was me thought at the farm meetings. WHITESTON NEWS Archie Riddick, U. S.
