CANNING MADE EASY
FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
One of the daintiest of housewifely
accomplishments is the putting up of
fruits. It savors of the days when even
the grandest of dames thought It not
beneath her dignity to make her own
sweetmeats and put up her own alm-
ples for winter's use. Aside from the
realization that preserves taste better
to the family when put up by the
hands of wife or mother, there Is an
unspeakable comfort In knowing that
no pernicious preservatives have en
tered Into their composition and that
they have been prepared In sanitary
surroundings.
It Is perfect cleanliness and the use
of the best materials that spell success
In the canning. The fruit should be
ripe, but not overripe, for as soon as
ripe or overripe the pectin, or jelly
making principle, loses its power. Im-
perfect • fruit should not be canned or
preserved, though gnarly or bruised
fruits may be used In Jellies or manna-
lade If the Imperfect portions are cut
out. Use only granulated sugar and
avoid that with a bluish cast, remem
bering that the best sugar obtainable Is
none too good. As for cans, buy the
best In the market, Self-Healing and
perfect. If you are to use old cans be
sure to get new rubbers. An old rub
ber Is n delusion and a snare.
Other utenatla are a skimmer, a ladle
a strainer, large mouthed funnel, two
long handled wooden apnona, a fruit
pricker, a wire basket for Immersing
the kinds of fruit that need peeling Into
hot water, knives for paring, preferably
plated; several bright tin pans or earth
en bowls, a stoneware crock or two, a
wooden vegetable masher, Jelly bags
and squares of cheesecloth, a rack to
slip In the bottom of the boiler If the

. THE MAHOGANY CRAZE.
Immediately after the civil War
R)*ny Southern families of prominence
and former wealth found themselves
under the necessity of disposing of
many objects of art and beautiful
household furniture, which had prior
to that time adorned their homes.
Some of these things were In the na
ture of heirlooms and were parted with
only under dire necessity, but the same
grit which led their owners Into and
.sustained them during the long, un
equal struggle Induced them to let go
In order that steps for a new life, un-
' der new conditions, might be success
fully prosecuted which would again
prove of what metal these people were
Herein lies the difference between the
disposition of such articles on the part
of some of the families of some of the
European states and those of the
and plenty of washable holders and
towels.
Beales are a desirable addition to the
canning outfit, as weighing la more re
liable than measuring. Before begin
ning the canning the kitchen should be
thoroughly swept and dusted with a
damp cloth, and all the utensils steril
ised. The glass cans, bottles, etc.,
should be put in cold water over the
fire, brought gradually to the boiling
point, then boiled ten minutes. Stew-
pans, strainers, etc., should be put In
water hot or cold and boiled ten or
fifteen minutes.
The cook herself should be suitably
dressed for her work, In washable ma
terial; no flippy floppy sleeves, or
sweeping train, and a cap to hold all
floating tresses In check. Wherever
possible, fruit should be prepared over
night or In the early cool of the morn
ing, so thut when ready to can there
need be no delay. If there is a shady
yard or back porch, do t’>e work .A.t of
doors, tanking t.is preliminary t*v»v*ry
poetry of labor. A paring bee ia no end
nberlng that many hands
malts light work. lineapples may be
peeled avid shredded, then covered with
sugar and set ,ln the cellar over night.
Currants may be stemmed and looked
er, cherries pitted for preserves,
gooseberries topped and tailed, and
some kinds of berries looked over.
Some fruits, however, need to be cook
ed as soon as possible after bringing
in the house, In order to retain color
and crispness.
All market fruit must be washed be
fore canning, and home grown fruit if
raised where It will gather dust. Cur
rants especially must be thoroughly
washed on account of the hellebore
used to protect them from the currant
orm. Berries that have to be wush-
1 should be placed In a colander be
fore stemming or hulling anti cold wa
ter poured over them. This must be
done quickly, then the berries shaken
until drained. Do not use the fingers
In hulling them. A simple huller can
be purchased for 5 cents, or tho bonbon
tongs may be used.
Before peeling peaches All a wire
basket and plunge for two or three
minutes In a pan of boiling water. Lift
the wire basket out and lower for an
other moment in a pan of cold water,
drain, then slip the skins off. Plums
and tomatoes may be peeled In tho
same way.
While the principle of successful can
ning Is always the same, qhsolue ster
ilization. there art' different ways of
accomplishing this. Borne fruits, like
rhubarb, green gooseberries and cran
berries, may be preserved without
cooking or tho use of sugar, because
their own acid Is a germ killer. The
proportion of sugar used In the preser
vation of other fruits varies accord
ing to acidity and the time of cook
ing to the tenderness of the fruit.
Some fruits arc best conserved by
cooking Immediately In syrup, others,
like quinces and hard pears, .must first
be boiled in clear water to make ten
der, then in syrup. While there are a
number of different methods of can
ning, the three principal ones are
stewing the fruit before It Is put In
Jars, cooking the fruit In Jars In the
oven, and cooking the fruit in Jars in
a water bath. There is also the cold
water process of canning and the bar
le due or sun cooked preserves.
Simplest of all Is the stewing process.
The syrups used In canning or pre
serving are made with varying propor
tions of sugar and water. For canning,
a light syrup, one pint of sugar to two
pints of water, Is best for the sweet
fruits, such as pears, peaches, cherries,
swpet plums, raspberries, huckleber
ries and blackberries. Acid fruits, such
as sour plums and cherries, need a pint
of sugar to a pint of water. Juicy
fruits—the various berries, currants
and cherries—require little or no % wa
ter, simply the sugar.
To Can By 8tewing.
Having measured the fruit and al
lowed the amount of sugar called for,
put sugar and water or fruit In the
preserving kettle and cook until thor
oughly heated through, the time being
dependent upon .the kind of fruit.
When ready to put In Jars roll the
Jar In hot water, slipping under side
ways, then set In a shallow pan hav
ing about two Inches of hot water In
tho bottom or If preferred a towel
wrung out of hot water. Now, with
ladle or spoon, using a wide mouthed
funnel for the Jar, fill with the scald
ing frul^ and syrup. Slip a silver
plated knife around the Inside of the
Jar next the gloss to let out air bub
bles, and pack fruit and juice solidly.
When full to overflowing and rubber
smoothly adjusted, put on the top and
fasten or screw as tight ns possible.
Lift out the Jar, set on a board or
thick folded newspaper, out of a
draught. As It cools tighten again, If
screw covers are used. When cold,
wipe tM Jarrf clean, wrap In paper,
label atul set away In a cool dark
closet.
Cannsd Fruit in a Water Bath.
Have ready a common wash boiler
with a rack In the bottom and enough
warm water to come several Inches
above the rack. Fill sterilized Jars
with fruit, packing ns closely as pos
sible. Make a syrup of sugar and wa
ter of the desired sweetness. When
at the boiling point pour over the
fruit nnd set the cans In the boiler,
not allowing them to touch. Keep
them separated by cotton rope or
cloths, so that they will not strike
when the water begins to boll about
them. Do not nut on the rubbers, but
cover lightly with the tops. Cover the
boiler, then cook about ten minutes or
a little longer than fruit canned by
stewing. Draw the boiler back, take
out the cans one by one, setting In a
pan of hot water. Put on the rubbers,
fill to overflowing with more of the
syrup, that has been kept hot, and
seal.

ARTI8T FARNY MARRIES WARD.
The noted painter of the American
Indian, Henry F. Farny, of Clifrtnnatl,
was married a few days ago, at James
town, N. Y., to hls ward. Miss Anna
Ray. Mr. Farny Is 59 years old; hls
bride is only 18.
The romance began when Miss Ray
was a little girl. When the artist first
saw her she. was a pretty, care-free
child In a short frock, playing on the
lawn of a friend’s home In Covington,
Ky. He learned she was the child of
poor parents, and he gained their con
sent to educate the girl. She was
reared In every way as a daughter of
hls' would have been. She was sent to
a select school and she had* every ad
vantage that money could provide.
Her benefactor visited her twice a
year. The love for the child blossomed
into the love for the “one woman"
and Farny asked hls ward to marry
him. She consented, and for the first
time In Its history “Umberland," the
artist’s country estate In Kentucky, will
have a mistress. The couple left for
New York, where the artist will present
his child bride to hls friends.
Mr. Farny has sketched and painted
In all the cities of the Old World, he
has been the friend of kings and em
erors, and he Is still talked of on th<
’estern plains as “The Big Man Who
Paints."
For years he has lived the life of a
recluse on hls magnificent Kentucky
country place, "Umberland,” deaf to the
entreaties of society, which would lion
ize him. The emperor of Germany has
_ small canvas by Farny in hls pri
vate apartments which he values high
ly—and he paid hls good round Ger
man thalers for It.
Farny was the original of Marny,
the delightful yarn spinner in F. Hop-
kinson Smith's "Woodflre In No. 3.”
Smith urn! Farny shared a studio in
Cincinnati in the old days. Farny
painted the portrait of “Aunt Lou,”
the old colored mammy, who told the
story of “A Kentucky Cinderella,” while
sweeping out Farny’s studio.
Robert Blum, who illustrated Sir Ed
win Arnold's book on Japan, was a
protege of Farny’s; Kenyon Cox has
reason to remember the rare gifts of
this remarkable man, and Xlehaus, the
sculptor, owes much to the generous
advice and criticism of Farny. Laf-
cadlo Hearn, w hose stories of “Thing*
Japanese" resemble bits of porcelain,
was another protege of Farny’s.

going down the ladder In price, and
yesterday middling was quoted at 93.4
cents, which Is an eighth off from what
It was Saturday. The price has been
declining at the rate of an eighth a
day for several days, and unless there
is something to check the decline there
will be great loss to the farmers In this
vicinity.
The older heads on the cotton row
declare that the situation Is nothing
short of being serious, and that If there
Is not something done real soon to
check the decline that they believe
there will be many failures this year.
The sales yesterday were the smallest
they have been In some time, but the
stock In Augusta Is gradually decreas
ing as the sales last week were very
large.
All eyea are turned upon the govern
ment report, which will be Issued on
ember 3, and it Is believed that it

tion of affairs. If It Is bearish, ns
many believe, the price will fall low,
but If It Is bullish, there will be a lit
tle light for the farmers.
