IF you are a busy wife and

need of help.
The results of your work will
prove a real boon. Preserves are
high in general food value. The
fruits and green vegetables pro
vide essential mineral salts and
vitamins. The sugar content Is
one of the best possible sources of
energy. Another important point
is that the expert j to your group
will be small. Both fruits and veg
etables promise to be unusually
cheap throughout the season. The
price of sugar has never been
lower.

The amount of the sauce prepared

ing the same proportions ot the
different ingredients. Fill the jars
full with the sauce, adjust rubbers
and covers loosely. Process (boil)
for two hours in a wash boiler
filled with water nearly to the
