SYRUP PEPSIN ^Doctor)i Family Laxative t \ ^ ' Canning Time Here; Recipes Suggested One of the most important phaaea in the live-at-home program i? the conservation of fruits and vegetables in the summer when they are plentL ful. They may be pickled, canned, dried or brined for winter use. However, canning has become widely known as the most popular method of conserving fruits and vegetables. The flavor, color and texture of these products are kept more perfectly by canning than by any Other known method because the foods are preserved in a condition more nearly resembling the freshly cooked P J ducts than can be found in dried or brined fruits and vegetables. The home maker who believes in the gospel of rest and recreation well as the gospel of work will find that she can save time and be really for any emergency if she has her pantry shelves stored with pickles, relishes and honrle canned fruits and i vegetables. There is nothing that adds more piquancy to a meal than pickles and relishes. That we enjoy a sour pickle or a side dish of acid tomatoes or a spicy pickled fruit or a relish with our pork chops or meat loaf is not wholly a question of pleasing the palate but there* is also a| dietetic reason. The acid, tart or | spicy dish really complement* the richer product. In a manner it breaks up the fat particles and makes them easier for the system to assimilate. Pickles and relishes are easy to make and have excellent keeping qualities. Now that there is an abundance of cucumbers the house wife should not neglect to prepare a generous store for winter use. Plain Cucumber Pickle. ? After washing the brine from the cured cucumbers, allow them to stand in fresh, cold water for three hours. Drain and cover with a weak solution of vinegur and allow them to stand for two or three hours. Put in kettle: 1 qt. vinegar; 1-4 cupful of whole black pepper; 1 or 2 pods of red pepper; 1 pound brown sugar;' 2 tablespoonfuls cloves; 1 tublespoonful of mace. Boil for five minutes and pour over the cucumbers which have been drained from the first vinegar. This amount is for one gallon of pickle. Pack into jars, cover with the spiced vinegar and process to seal air-tight. Cucumber Pickle.?2 gallons of cucumbers In brine; 1 gallon vinegar, 4 lbs. sugar; 1V2 oz. whole black pepper; 1-2 oz. whole allspice; 1 oz. cinnamon; a few sprigs of mace. Soak cucumbers to freshen. Place layers of grape leaves in kettle with cucumbers. Pour over cucumbers cold alum water. Bring to a boil, boil ten minutes; then boil in strong ginger tea ten minutes. Lift cucumbers into boiling vinegar, sugar and spices and. cook until tender. Mixed Pickles.?3 large beads, of cabbage; 1 qt. vinegar; 2 lbs. sugar; 1-2 oz. each of cloves, cinnamon, al?spice and mace; 1 pk. green tomatoes; 1 doz. medium-sized onions; 2 doz. cucumbers; 1 doz. green peppers. Chop them separately and very fine. Mix all together and put in alternate layers of mixture and salt. Let stand over night. Then squeeze dry [ J mm; up with col4 vinegar. I-<et is stand twenty-four hours and squeeze as before. Mix vinegar with spices, add Hugrfr, boil for five minutes and pour over the chopped vegetables. Allow to stand for several hours. Pack in jars, garnish with strips of red pepper, cover with the spiced vinegar and process. Cucumber Relish.?12 large cucumbers sliced thinly; 1 1-2 qts. onions; 2 tbs. salt; 1 red pepper cut fine or 1-8 tsp. cayenne; 1 qt. vinegar; 4 c. sugar; 2 1-2 tsp. tumeric; 1 tap- grated nutmeg; 4 cinnamon 1 inch long. Sprinkle salt over cucumbers and onions, let it stand for one hour. Drain well, place in kettle the sugar, vinegar and other ingredients. Dissolve sugar well, bring all to a boil, add slices and boil hard until slices glisten, usually about 30 minutes counting from boiling point. Seal in sterilized jars. This is also berry time. Xlu'M' are various ways of saving the blackberries that may be had for the picking. They may be canned or made into jelly, jam or nectar. Canning Blaekberrie?.-~The berries should be sorted carefully, then washed lightly by placing in a colander and pouring water over them instead of immersing them in water. Some berries shrink a great deal during processing so they should be pre-cooked before filling the containers. Since the flavor of canned berries is better if sugar is used, to each pound of fruit add 1-4 to 1-2 lbs. of sug?r depending on the sweetness of the frpit. Thfc berries will have a richer color and flavor if berry juice is used instead of water. Place sugar and berries in a kettle and heat to boiling point, stir gently and boil 5 minutes. Pack boiling hot into containers and process immediately for 5 minutes in boiling water. Blackberry Nectar.?12 lbs. of crushed blackberries. Ppur over these a quart of white vinegar, let it stand in a granite porcelain con| tainer 36 hours, covered with a cloth tied over the mouth of container. When time expires, strain first through a thin bag, then drip through a thick one. Measure juice and add an equal measure of sugar, stir until dissolved. Place in the preserving kettle on the flame, let it boil 5 minutes, counting time when juice begins to boil. Remove immediately, as more boiling would precipitute the pectin-. Seal in sterilized jars or bottles. Do not process. Use 4 tbs. of this Byrup to a nice tea glass of crushed ice or ice:' water; 3 tbs. to an ordinary glass. Nectar may be made from very ripe peaches, plums, grapes, strawberries, raspberries, Himalaya berries and even mellow pears by this recipe, advises Miss Sadie B. Craig, county home demonstration agent. General News Notes A bandit entering a new field in his profession went on board the yacht of a rich New York man at Georgetown, demanded the money of the. night watchman at the point of a pistol, started the yacht on one engine and commanded the watchman to start the other. The yacht hit a barge and the watchman knocked the nautical bandit overboard. The latter, who said his name is Howard Brown, swam ashore and was arrested at daylight in a hotel. Fifty negro laborers were attacked by 200 white men at a Greenville construction job and a big fight for employment began.

I Governor Blackwood comes back at his critics at Gaffney for paroling with $500 fine a star bootlegger there i sentenced to imprisonment. The governor sayssthe parole causes the return of the man to prison if he ever violates law again, that he enabled the state to convict the two bandit murderers of the payroll clerk there who were electrocuted and caused their arrest, and that he has confidence in his .promise to avoid bootlegging hereafter. to! etaoinshrdluetaoinshrdluetainunu Carlos A.
