CORN s G W e M “¢at Canaing Devices. , :Washington, D..C, July 10.—The E - tdllowing seasomable recipes for the ..lelng of cern have proven both ractical and economical for the house- wife. The recipes have been worked out in the department’s canning kitchen and the products tested for aearly two years. 4 These récipes have beén used in gonnection with the five different types of canning devices and the corn i has been put up in all types of con- tainers, such as glass top, screw top, suction top and tin cans. The meth- od employed is the cold-pack method, the same as is now being used in the Best commercial factories of the world, instead of requiring the la- porious and tedious method of frac- tional sterilization of an hour each - day for three consecutive days and the lifting of the products in and out of the canning devices three times. e method now employed contem- plates but one sterilization and turns out the product in better shape, with better color, texture and flavor than the fractional sterilization smethod. v By following these recipes and method the family can have corn, sither on or off the cob, throughout the year at a very reasonable expense * of time, energy and money. Corn Oft Cob. Select sweet corn ears of uniform size and proper rfpeness. If too ripe the corn will color while proc- essing. (Processing is the canning 4. term for sterilization or cooking.) If fot ripe enough much of the food value is lost in cutting the corn from the cob. Use either glass jars or tin cans. For market purposes and greater safety in transportation, use tin, cans. . Remove husk, silk, shank, tips, and injured or defective places. Blanch gbrn In boiling water or steam chest gor from five to ten minutes. The time depends upon the stage of ripe- ness, size of ears, and degree of fresh- ness. Remove the ears and plunge kly in cold water. ‘“&c\n the corn from the cob with & sharp, thin-bladed knife. Pack well in glass jar or tin can; add hot water and a level teaspoonful of salt to' the quart. Place rubber and L glass jar top in place, not tight. If using tin, solder cap ‘in place and 011 vent hole, or seal completely. Pro- céss the corn from 180 to 240 min- utes in the home-made or hot-water commercial bath outfits, for one.and .| four hours. b sidering this, canning corn on the cob for the market might prove a very profitable investment for a thrifty housekeeper. and bring to- her con- siderable pin money. One advantage of sweet corn caned on ‘the cob over other cannéd corn, is that all the best fogd values are kept with the cob, In cutting corn off the germ quality of the kernél, which keeps up its stan- dard, 'is usually lost. This germ qual- ity is the part of the corn that is sought by rats and mice when theéy look. for food in the corn bin, and 18 the most vital part. Much of the corn is also rendered mushy when it is cut from the cob. In regard to the container for corn on the cob it might be mentiorred that for advertising and exhibition pur- poses, glass is much more satisfactory than the tin can, but if corn on the cob were to be put up in large quantities as a business venture the glass would not be practical, being too expensive, but the tin cans would prove quite satisfactory.

Har- ris of Brattleboro, Vt., title holder ot the Connecticut state tennis cham- pionship will not come here to defend his title tomorrow, this year's championship will rest with the win~ ner of the finals in singles to be played tomorrow forenoon. W. Rand 8rd, of Rye, N. Y, and F. C. Inman of New York city, will be the players, cording to size of ear. Do not can :g;_:::::smz:;‘ his match in the large ears. Half-gallon or gallon tin Rand. beat' Sw;yne ar & etk cans with large openings should be used in the canning of ear corn when idle glass jars are not avajlable. Gal- lon tin cans will hold from six to twelve ears. They should be graded to uniform size. In high altitudes, 4,000 feet ana over, it. will be necessary to increase the time requirements in the canning of sweet corn about twenty-five per cent., if water boils at about 202 de- grees Fahrenheit and even less. About Cans and Jars. In the average home a large num- ber of glass jars are idle every year. The use of these idle jars is recom- mended, but if none are available the most economical and practical con- tainers are the half-gallon and.the gallon tin acn. The gallon tin cans, including soldered-hemmed caps, will cost about six cents apiece, but they will hold six to twelve ears of corn, which is enough for a good-sized family, If the corn is removed from can and steamed for a few minutes it cannot be distinguished from the sweet corn match while Inman easily disposed legs of the cup and his excellent form today makes him the favorite for finalist, and should he win, the trophy will become his own. The doubles will go through the semi-finals today and the finals will be the attraction tomorrow afternoon. NAMES FOR DREADNOUGHTS. Battleships Will Be Named After States, Washington, July 10.—Secretary Daniels announced today that the latest four new dreadnoughts begin- ning with No. 39 would be namea Arizona, California, Mississippi and Idaho. The last two were so named in order that the states of Mississip~ pi and Idaho might not lose their ships because of the recent sale ot two battleships to Greece. With the new battleships, every state in the union now has a battle- ship named for it except Marylana, removed from the husk in midsum- mer, The corn can be heated in the container before opening to serve.

Residents living near the corner of John- and Pleasant streets were aroused from their slumbers at about 11:30 o’clock last night by the sounds of hostilities in the street. Investiga- tlon showed that four young men were engaged in a bloody combat under the electric light and the fight did not end until one of the com- batants was knocked out and his com- panion had fled. The trouble started when two young men and two girls came down Pleas- ant street and turned into John street. At the corner two other young men attempted to take their girls from them and the war was on. As soon as hostilities commenced one of the intruders developed a broad streak of “yellow” and fled every time his opponent came near hm. The other stood his ground. Round and round they circled, each emitting blood curdling oaths and each trying for a knockout. Finally the fellow who was trying to ‘“protect” the girls landed a solid blow on his opponent’s eye and down he went, lying in the gutter until a passerby picked him up. After vainly trying to induce the other young man to come back and fight, and then applying a few choice names the two men hurried up the street to rejoin their female coml- panions. It is said that both par- ties were under the influence of liquor. The scrap created a sensation in the reighborhood - and quite a crowd gathered while many more people stuck their heads out of the nearby windows to see what the trouble was. By a strange coincidence the officer on the -beat had passed the scene of the fight only a few minutes before Lostilities broke out. One of the participants was badly beaten. His eye was cut, his face was battered and bleeding and he was otherwise used up. His opponent was not even scratched. CONDITION SERIOUS. “Pickpenny” Confined in Danbury Hospital as Result of Exposure. Danbury, July 10.—John Brennan, known all over the state as ‘‘Pick- penny” and ‘“Johnnie o' the'Woods,” is in the local hospital and is said to be in a serious condition as the result of exposure and exhaustion caused by lack of proper food and ‘care.

New Haven, Conn, July 10.— Those Comstock rumors are some boomers. A few days ago there was a letter sent broadcast throughout the state from Norwich telling what a vote for Comstock was and now there comes a flood of letters from the loyal democrats of Windham county. They put the Comstock boom for governor in the question and answer why. They first ask in bold type “Who Are We?" “Why Do We Smile,” and “Why Are We Here?” and then they proceed to answer the questions: Answers of Questions. These are the answers: 1. We are .the Windham County prosperity boomers. ~We come from one of the most successful cotton and woolen manufacturing centers on earth, where 7,000 skilled hands are employed at higher wages than ever before. 2. We smile because we are happy. We sing and shout with joy, as the cloud of unrest and industrial depres- sion has been swept away by the prompt action of the democratic na- tional administration, and business is free. Cause to Smile. Every mill wheel in Windham county is turning. Sixteen large mills are 8o rushed with orders that they are compelled to run day and night, at least part of the time, and since Pres- jdent Wilson has been in the White House every wage earner in Windham county will have had an increase in pay, and the democratic governor and senate .of Connecticut reduced their hours of labor. Why shouldn’t we smile ? 3 3. We are here from Windham county te let you see us smile our |in the front rank of progressives, NEW OFFICERS. Ladfes’ T. A. B. Soclety Holds lation and Social Meeting.
