All Bacteria Present Must Be De- stroyed -- Hints on Canning and Sealing, and Also on Drying In Special Ovens--S8toring Fruits. (Contributed by Ontario Department of | Agriculture, Toronto.) T is a universally known fact that foods not properly preserved will spoil. They will ferment, decay, putrify or become meidy. These changes are brought about by the development of bacteria, yeasts and | If these | molds on or in the food. micro-organisms can be prevented from growing on or in the food it will | not spoil. Therefore, the question of food preservation resolves itself into the problem of prevemting these bao- teria, yeasts and molds from growing or multiplying on or In the foods. This is done in various ways accord- | Ing to the nature of the food to be || preserved. Overheating or freezing will usual- {ly kill the living tissue of which the roots are composed, after which they | { will readily decay as a result of the rapid multiplication of bacteria and | molds in the dead tissue. | In the preservation of such vege- | | tables as green peas, beans, asparagus | and green corn different measures | Are necessary. These are green and | Juicy and if stored in the fresh con- dition they will either wilt or ferment | and rot. This fermentation and rot- | ting is due to the development of the bacteria which are present on the vegetables. There will be sufficient | moisture present in the mass to en- | able the bacteria to multiply and feed on the material and thus induce the rot. | So in order to preserve such vege- | |tables in the fresh condition the bac- | { teria present have to be all killed and | all other bacteria prevented from get- | ting on the material until it is to be | used. In order to accomplish this the | process ot canning is resorted to. To get satisfaetory results from canning | | vegetables it is necessary to have: | 1st. Good wound healthy vege- | tables, | 2nd. Good clean sealers with tight- |atting tops and good rubbers. 8rd. Wash the vegetables and fll Into the sealers. 4th. Cover with water salted to | | taste. Sth. Put on the tops and leave [slightly loose. 6th. Place sealers in a steamer or boiler half filled with cold water and | heat to the boiling point for half an hour, 7th. Remove sealers from boiler or steamer and tighten down the tops. { 8th. After 24 hours loosen the tops | | and return to the boiler or steamer and give another half hour's bofling. 9th. Repeat this process after an- | {other 24 hours. Then tighten down | the tops and place away. | This treatment should destroy all micro-organisms present and if the top is hermetically sealed no others {ean get in untfl it is opened. | Another method of sterilizing is to 'give one boiling to the filled sealers or 3-4 hours. This, however, cannot be depended on results as the above. | Another method is to heat in steam {under 15 Ibs. pressure for thirty min- utes. This 1s the commercial way for which special strong steamers (putoclaves), that can withstand in- ternal pressure, are necessary. A small vessel of this type suitable for | household use is now on the market. | Another method of preserving { vegetables is by drying them in spe- ! ovens. This drying process ex- tracts sufficient moisture from the Vegetables to prevent the bacteria present from having the power to multiply unless the materials should get moist before being used. If suf- ficient moisture is not extracted or should the dried materiale get moist | during storage, then decay or rot will rapidly develop, as the bacteria are Bot killed ia the drying process and only require moisture t: able them | to develop. 2 In the storing or apples and pears it 1.

THOSE SEVEN SEAS, Are No Better Known Than Nine - Points of Law. Which are the Seven Seas? This is an expression as old as Shake- uspeare, yet even to-day nobody is quite sure about the seventh. Any- body can name six -- the Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, Antarctic, and Indian Oceans, and the Mediterranean Sea --but there has aiways been a doubt | whether the seventh was the Baltic | or the North Sea. The expression "the Seven Seas" is really another | way of saying all the world. What were the Seven Wonders of the World? This question can be answered in rhyme-- The Pyramids first, which in Egypt were; laid; | Next Babylon's garden, for Amytis made; \ Then Mausolos's tomb 'of affection and guilt; Fourth, the Temple of Diana, in Ephesus built; The Colossus of Rhodes, cast in brass, to the Sun; Sixth, Jupiter's statue, by Phydias done; The Pharos of Egypt, last wonder of old. Or the Palace of Cyprus, cemented with gold. It appears that, as in the case of the Seven Seas, only six wonders were agreed upon universally, opinion being divided as to which constituted the seventh. What are the Nine Points of the Law? It has been said that success in litigation requires a good deal of { patience, a good deal! of money, a | good cause, a good lawyer, a good counsel, good witnesses, a good jury, | & good judge, and, last, a part of the proverd which says that 'possession is nine points of the aw," and that anybody is welcome to the tenth if they can get anything out of it. - - When you have answered these number-puszies it will be a little change to attempt te recite the Tux Commandments, ant to name the Twelve Apostles, 'h& Four Evange- | lists, anid the Twa:ie Minor Prophets. --Tit-Bits.

The so-called "ring meteorite" Is unique; none other at all like it has ever been known. It is four feet in diameter, weighs 1,400 pounds ang has the shape of a complete ring. The ring is of iron, with a percentage of nickel. Nobody knows how long ago it fell from the sky; but it was found in the Santa Catariua mountains by a Mexi- can. For a long time it was in use as an aavil at Tucson. There an army surgeon happened to see It, owing to the accident of needing a shoe for his horse. A Mexi- can blacksmith put the shoe on for him, and hammered the shoe upon this curious anvil, The Mexican ¢id not know that his anvil was a moidhrite, and so was willing to sell it for a few dollars. The surgeon took it to Washington and gave it to the Smithsonian Insti- | tution. It is now on exhibition ia the Museum. this meteorite must omposed malaly of stony | suf, but the latter was doubtless | to bits when the big preo- | ectile from the sky struck the earth; or, if not, it soon disintegrated.
