If the food is put into the jars boiling hot it reaches the temperature for processing more quickly in the canner and heat penetrates better to the center of the ja-r. The hot pack insures a product of better texture and ap pearance and shortens the time of canning. | . Many dairymen believe that cows should always be milked reg ularly, but tests at the U. S. Bureau 1 of Dairy Industry Experiment Farm at Beltsville, Md., show that average to good cows can be milk ed at irregular hours v/ithout any material effect on milk production. Apparently cows are more sensi tive to changes in feeding routine than to variation in the hours cf milking. Total Claims Approved for May — $ 425.50 JDORNmLM^HOOL DISTRICT NO. 15 5-»—4&0*-Editk M.

They will cost, for the 52 ships, $3,000,177. For the price of one modern bat tleship, with coalers and other equip ment, the navy could buy 1,040 such fighting planes. Altogether they would require crews smaller than one battleship crew and would cost fur less in upkeep than one battleship. And one such bombing plane could sink any battleship or other ship afloat. This nation needs at the least an air fleet of 5,000 fighting planes, with an adequate fleet under water. Peshawar is a long way from Buckingham palace, and once it would have been painful, slow work subdu ing natives in those far oft valleys. But now the dull thud of exploding Royal Air Force bombs is heard in the hiding places of Hajl and his Mohammedan tribesmen, rebelling against Britain. And Ilaji's forces are melting away. Allah and his prophet are great, but they offer no weapon to light fly ing machines. The first party of 127 Gold Star Mothers, having seen the graves of their dead sons, are on their way home. They were too early for the poppies, about which pretty war poems were written, but they saw the white crosses, row on row. each marking the grave of a dead'American soldier. President Hoover and the Navy de partment are 1<» he congratulated on the decision to allow our submarine 0-12 to take part in Sir Hubert Wil kins’ work of exploration in the Arctic. Eventually our fleet of submarines will be made useful in peace through exploration of the oceans, seas, hikes and land under them. Engineers and surveyors will map out the mountains and valleys lying under the oceans. And the future will see submarine prospectors, searching for mines and oil wells, below the water, competing with modern prospectors now search ing for treasure and oil for nations by airplanes. Henry Ford says people must keep up their spirits, American farmers must develop mass production as American factories do, wages .must not be cut, and everybody must be cheerful. * Sound advice for everybody except the man out of a job, and the farmer, who doesn’t know bow to get mass production out of 50 acres. Mr. Ford lets the workmen stand still while their work passes in front of them. The farmer can’t stand still and make the rows of corn or cows pass in front of him. But Henry Ford is a genius and may find a way. Wall Street believes that J. P. Mor gan, most powerful figure in American finance, is perfecting an enterprise that will make his late father’s big steel company look like a modest investment. The new enterprise, called in Wall street slang “United Corp.,” plans a flve-billion-dollar corporation to in clude practically everything in the way of public utilities in the North Atlantic region. Steam power, water power, gas. and the great distributing agencies would all be under one hat. Mr. Ralph Budd, president of the Great Northern railway, with his son and some first-class railroad engineers, has sailed for Europe, to be met by representatives of the Soviet commis sar of railways at the Russian fron tier. Mr. Budd will devote a year to planning reorganization of Russian railways on American lines. This shows that Russia knows something about business, whatever you may think of her politics and social theories. Eyes examin ed.

Not including real estate, the late Rodman Wanamaker left $60,000,000, according to his executors. More in teresting than the size of his fortune is the fact that he worked hard, al most to the day of his death, at his own business, and at promotion of aviation, in which he was a pioneer, and other work important to the public. It is what a man does, not what he has, that counts. Encouraging news from London says “business girls” arc fighting long skirts. The short skirt represents common sense, comfort, health, and does not drag in germs. Oven-dried toast is a delicious accompaniment to soups and sal ads, and is an easy way of dispos ing of stale bread. Any sort of pieces may be oven dried and del icately browned in a medium oven, but for passing as a special kind of bread, it is more attractive to trim the crusts off a stale loaf so the slices will be square, cut them very thin, and heat them until they are biscuit colored and slightly curled. The trimmings need not be wasted; roll them out for dried crumbs. ■ " ■■rrtj-=;.r-r=! .i 1 \'ir"™TTA Nine-Tenths Preventable Nine-tenths of all the diseases of the' American people can be traced directly} to constipation, doctors sav.

Only one township, Magnolia In which the town of Calhoun Falls is located showed an increase over the ten year period. In 1920, Mag nolia had a population of 3,405 while the. last count enumerated 3,739. Mr. Gray stated that the unusual loss might be attributed in a measure to the exodus from the farming sections to cotton mills and the cities. Practically all parts of Abbeville county are made up of farming sections alone. There were 3,374 farms counted in the 1930 census as compared with 4,456 in 1920.
