THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNES Dicuss Every woman has her own pet method of canning and preserving. It often seems more trouble to try some “easier” way than to go on in the old way. Still, the saving of labor, time and fuel is a big item, so we pause to consider the methods of do- mestic science experts. All canning and preserving in domestic science classes is done by, the cold pack mevhod, with steam pressure cooking, in a quarter of the time the ofd method takes. The cold pack method is the cleanest and quickest in the preparation of fruits and vege- tables. It is not complicated. As for the steam pressure cooker, the time will soon come when we will think it very waste- ful to cook any food in open pots and pans. A few minutes’ time spent in investigating the “easier” way to do your canning and preserving will result in the saving of hours spent in the kitchen and, conse- quently, gas bills. A book of directions and tested recipes comes with a Secrist Steam Pressure Cooker when you buy one at McCrecery’s. Extraordinary Reductions!
