Canning Fruit

Prepare fruit or berries, place in jars and seal. Boil sweet syrup and pour over fruit in jars, then place jars into wash boiler; pour boiling water over jars, let stand until cold.

To Can Small Fruits

Have a granite kettle with 2 or 3 inches of boiling water on the stove. Put the rubber ring and jar cover on the stove until wanted. Warm the glass jar, then roll it in the kettle until hot as can be, then set it upright, leaving a little water in the bottom. Drop the berries into the jar, and when full, take a small dipper and fill the jar with water from the kettle, allowing it to overflow several times. Adjust rubber and cover quickly, lift the jar out on a wet cloth and finish the screwing up process. Add boiling water to the kettle and proceed with next jar. Mrs. Clayton Hollinger.

How To Can Beans

Wash and string beans, pack into jars and cover with cold water in which a teaspoonful of salt has been dissolved, seal, and when you have filled enough jars, place a wash boiler on stove, first placing a thin board or cloth upon bottom of boiler so that jars will not touch the bottom of boiler, nor each other. Put in water enough to just cover top of jars, put lid on boiler and boil steadily for 4 hours.

Canned Corn

4 qts. corn, 1 scant pint of coarse salt, 1 qt. water. Dissolve salt in water, boil the corn 15 minutes, and put in glass jars. Add a little sugar. Before using it soak it in cold water and when soaked dress as fresh corn. Mrs. A. Sourber.
