To hang a gate without hinges go to the woods and cut a forked hickory or dogwood. leaving the forks about two feet long. Nail this to the post as shown: then get a rock with a hole in it (or make one in tt), place lower end of gate post in the hole in the rock and the other end through the fork. ‘This makes a:good, cheap gate hanger. —Southern Agriculturist. The Modern Hen. The primitive hen laid about two dozen egge a year. [Kive years ago a few hens were laying between 150 and 200 eggs a year. Last year whole flocks were laying an average of close to 200 waste. This is a money -making plan for any farm family and deserves care- tul consideration. The canning season opens in June with strawberries, currdnts, gooseber- Hes, rhubarb; etc. Following in quick succession-we have red and black rasp- berries; loganberries and cherries. The latter half of July finds canuers busy with beets and. the first -delivery of string beans. Bartlett pears and black- berries begin to come after the middle of ‘August.

A dried fruit packing department is one of thie most profita- ble lines of business. Almost every housewife has a tin clothes boiler which she can easily convert into a sterilizing vat in’ which to boll the products which she desires to can. The only things necessary are a tight cover and a false bottom. The false bottom is made of wire netting and is needed.to prevent the jars from coming in contact with the bottom of the boiler, which would crack them. To make these boilers take an ordi- nary No. 16 wire netting of half inch mesh, which is cut to fit the bottom of the boiler. If the netting is not available use thin pieces of wood. A patent open door steam cooker is even more convenient than a clothes boiler. | The water seal outfit 1s’a combined hot water and steam canner with a self sealed top which permits the prod- CURRANTS AND GOOSEBEREIES FOR OAN- NING. ucts to be bolled at a temperature 2 degrees higher than the homemade outfit will.

They depend entirely on steam instead of hot water for cooking fruit and ‘vegetables. They are called steam pressure cookers. The cooker with five pounds of pressure does the work: in much less time than the water seal outfit, and the cooker with a preasure of ten pounds will accomplish the work in about -half the time needed for the five: pound cooker. Apples.—Belect red -apples:-of a fine acid flavor and wipe but do not peel Remove any defective spots and divide into quarters, core and cut each piece into fourths.

Lift carefully into cans-while hot and'seal. low three pints of water and one cup- ful of sugar for six quarts of fruit. Heat them slowly before putting in the sugar. Then add the sugar and cook gently for five or six minutes. Peaches.—Choose only the best, but they should be firm to the touch. Peel and divide each into halves, removing the pits. Put into a preserving ‘kettle every six quarts of the prepared‘peach- es. Bring gradually to the bofling point, then can and seal at once. In all canning operations carefully study the directions which come with the apparatus or which dealers will furnish in printed form. While the -work is simple enough the methods require taste and' care. For instance, select uniform tomatoes and see that ‘they are free from blemishes. Wash them before scalding to prevent any dairt from entering. After washing stratner and' putinto a bofler of scald- skin will slip off easily.
