Dear Soclal Corner Members: There have been so few letters the past week or-two 1 feel I must do my share, though it certainly is a busy time. One wrote about hospitality dying out. In one town where I lived, and attended church when it was possible to, the minister al- ways shook hands with me and asked me to come again, but he never ocalled on me. The attitude of both pastor and congregation seemed to give the impres- sion that newcomers could come to chureh or not it did not matter. When I moved to another town I saw such a dif- cumulating in the bins. By this means every pound of tea is identical in quality: The team is then packed in metal, lined chests of about one hundred pounds ca- pacity and is ready for shipment. We will not sall back to Boston where chests of tea from the Ceylon tea gar- dens have arrived and are being trans- ferred to the motor trucks of the com- pany. Arriving at the door of the. plant the tea chests are place on a roller con- veyor, which carry the chests automatic- ally. across the floor to the “unistrand.” | This machine picks up a chest every six feet ‘of"its length, “and sometimes there are as many as twenty chests in suspen- sfon) and carries It to whatever floor the “unistrand” s set to discharge its freight. Passing around ‘to the front of the building, we: entered. a door:leads ing ‘into “the spacious: and handsomely| eppointed offices. A courteous ofticlal| met us, and readily granted our reguest to go over-the plant. We were conduct- ed to the elevator and ‘taken . up:to the blending room on thetop-flor,, where-a: we stepbed off ithe elevator, we, immedi- ately became conscious of the delicate aroma of tea, and.the spotlessly clean in- terior. White-uniformed employes were busily engaged in opening different chests of tes as indicatéd by the “blender,” who blends the tea according to a form- ula he receives. The team 1is emptied from the chests into the big hopper, and & fan exhausts the air, through a hood over the hopper, carrying away the dust as fast as the tea is emptied. The fan and hood act on the same principle as an tmmum ‘to three hours, counting as it would be ta have Fo wild animals in our str living without the help of present day he proved comebiasses the improvi let's have as much improvement In tne character of the people. 2 Sometimes a canning recipe is written or printed with wrong dicections, and the product would not keep. The beginner should btain the cannidg, preserving w pickling bullefin from the state, agricul- tural college, and learn the few essentiat rules to observe.

More Worky but in this way they are sure 1o keep, and have no “flat sour.” When canning vegetables and meats, T always do it on the ofl stove in wash electrlo vacuum cleancr. From the hopper the tea descends in Dig tubes to the floor below, to the cut- ting and sifting'machine. This process still further exhausts the st from the tes, and it then proceeds downward to the mixer on the floor beolw. ~After the mixer hae revolved the requisite number of times, it discharged the tea from eith- er side into the “discharge box.” Con- nected with this are a number of pipes through which ths tea fs condu b big plate glass tan Bach tank has a sand pounds. As the tea falls into these tanks the last graln of dust is e: ed. The tea passes from tI by gravity into machines on the boiler, but when doing frult I try to get it done on the wood cooking stove when I am doing the usual baking or other work requiring the larger stove. The jars must never be airtight when bolling but must be made eirtight as quickly as possible as you remove them from the hot bofler. I much prefer small fars for keeping preserves, jells and james in. Sterilize the jars 15 minutes before filling them, en fill them, make airtight and stand © hot jar§™n the hot canming boiler for 15 minutes, but mot letting it quite boil, JEREMY. = TOW I USE NEWSPAPERS. Dear Social Corner: I save all my ference. So many introduced themselves and thelr friends to me. The minister came to call inside of two weeks and all wers 5o friendly and it means a great deal to one when an entire stranger. I made & vow then and there When stran- gers came into my church I would make it & point to speak to them, it being one thing I had been very negligent of do- ing when I was {n my own home church. As to hospitality in the home, if it is lacking 1 think it is becauss the world is in such a rush. As a child how weil T remember goig with my parets and grandparents to spend the day with va- rious friends and neighbors once or twice a year and they in turn coming to spend the day with us and ohi such apreads. We of another generation still hold to the custom. No ome likes to have com- pany any better than I, but where there 18 so much work that just has to be done 1 cannot entertain as much as I would Hke. One thing I always do is to enter- tain friends of mine who have to work ag hard as I do. A few years ago when descends into the the next fidor. Th label the tez at th & minute.

She had a child about three, She was tired out and and wanted a rest. She did not care to g0 about. She had just been boarding two weeks at Old Orchard Beach, and had been on several motor trips. It geemed to me tired as I was and knowing the following week I.had corn to can ~that capped the climax. Tt seemed to me every nerve in my body apped. 1 wrote and told her how tired T was and 1t would not be convenient. Tn a few @ayas T received an answer saying it was all right and telling me how many peo- ple were inviting her to visit them. It was a very nice smooth letter with care- fully veiled soratches. When I read it 1 sald right out leud “Kitty, kitty, kitty." She has been to call on me since and T at a farm in my town, she staying at the furnished house and taking her meals at another place nearby. I know we Nave mever felt the same toward each hospitable, FHer husband got his dinners in town and sometimes his suppers, and one week in each month he was out of town the whole week. She had a tene- ment of six Tooms, a woman to come and clean ome day a week and her laundry sent out. I was working for all there was in me, so I felt justified in doing as I did. T do not think the majority of people in the city realize how hard it Is for the people on farms to entertain them aspecially at the busy time they usually come.

As we linger with a friend over “the cup that cheers” or find refreshment’in it when we weary, how little we realize the numerous and careiul progesses the tea plant goes through, before it is drunk as & beverage. This thought was forcibly brought to me the day I visited the big plant of the Salada Tea company who occupy a hand- some elght-story structure of steel, lime- stone and cement, on Berkeley street, Boston. I spent such a wonderfully in- teresting afternoon, at tho plant, that I would like to extend the pleasure it gave me, to all interested Social Corn- er readers; but before we enter the Bos- ton plant I must ask you to go with me first to the home of “Salada” tea, across the sea, where on the beautiful island of Ceylon, the tea gardens, fragrant with white blossoms, riss ome above the an- other in full perfection. The tea gardens tro planted on the hillsides. The higher the elevation, the better the tea. After the seed has been planted, it takes from two to threa years before the tea plant i» ready for picking. When once matur- ed it s picked every week for 7 year.

Dear Social Corner Editor and Sister: With noticeable consideration nt, but the greatest thing of all, next o God's blessing is, T management.” By home management I o ont mean for the housewife to let household matters worry her, and oc- cupy her attention from morning till night. If she does she is wearing her- self out to no purpose. I am aware ings will go wrong in the best regu- lated families. Some times your pud- dings will turn ont @ dire failure. Mary Ann may break the soup tureen, maybe you bave discovered dust in . number of unsuspected corners and I know that the natural thing for‘You to do about these is to worry. I do not mean that at all. For I do not believe the weaith of the Indies would not make a com- fortable home without management. You will find if the mistress is a bad man-~ ager, servants will not improve matters. There is ons thing with perseverance and pluck you can cultivate that knack of management, it it !s net natural for you. You'll save time and temper not only for yourself, but for your husband {and other folks, too. There is one thing I find in home. ox any other kind of business, your work | must be systematically done. By that I mean have a time to do such and such things, finish what vou have commenced, get a grim hold of your work and make up your mind not to leave it. I you do vou'll spend half of your time going over |the same ground. A woman with sev- 1 children and all her own house- vk to do, if she has management, will always have a comfortable home. I dow't say that she will not have to work hard, for she will, but so she would any- . She is one who can avold confu- sion. Even early in the morning, she will struggle and manage, whatever bap- pens, to get all the rough work of her home dono before midday. i steal the antigues or coramlit other is just acting out the animal in- to Relp themselves to amything can use 2nd waste and destroy the of lack of management nished with painfal agement is greatly valued have eves to il { BR ithe Kitchen. baby’s pad with several |f In putting away | i R 1 take the mewspapers wheun | n the auto T have put newspapers un- | n Cut newspapers in squares |§ pants T use newspaper between | ¥ uation. You mothers may have spoken of your children’s faults, and your child ight have heard you. That has a sort of a dehumanizing effect on their littls minds for it makes serious inroads in the same, so I say, “Don’t tell your chil- dren's faults even to their relatives. If you meed advice get it privately. As I have said it creates bitterness in their untrained hearts and estranges them ¢ | from you. Do not tell that your children afslike Teading, for this is chlefly your own fault. Educate their taste in reading by your own interest in.books. You will find as they grow older their taste in literature, will change for the better. If one child likes a certain kind of reading do not compél another to listen to it— but give all an equal chance. KITTY LOU.
