Well maybe you thought that circular with the jars was advertising matter mat-ter and threw it away without reading. read-ing. Don't worry, we will tell you about opening jars and sealing them too, because chances are that part of the trouble with opening is due to failure to follow instructions for sealing. Surely you know about sterilizing everything, leaving plenty of head space, and having the rubbers rub-bers wet So we will skip that part. There are two types of home canning can-ning jars, and all have a trade name lettered in the side. The ones with screw-thread necks are Masons. Those with glass lids held in place with wire bails are lightning type or Ideals. Mason Jars are used with one-piece one-piece zinc caps and rubber rings, or with two-piece metal vacuum seals, or with glass top seal caps. The glass top seal is sometimes called a three-piece cap because it is made up of glass lid, rubber ring and metal band. When sealing a Mason jar with zinc cap, place a rubber flat on the sealing surface (you may call it shoulder or ledge), screw the zinc cap down tight, then turn it back about half an inch. This is done to prevent steam forcing the rubber out of place or causing the cap to bulge. The cap is screwed tight as soon as the jar is taken out of the canner. Use Pliers to Open Jar The easiest way to get the jar open is to use pliers to pull the rubber rub-ber out. Small dime store pliers are best for this because friend husband won't be tempted to borrow them when he has to fix the fence. If you have no pliers, the next best way is to run the sharp point of a knife under un-der (not over) the rubber, wiggle the knife sidewise (not up and down), then unscrew the cap. If you can't manage this,1 turn the jar upside up-side down in hot water for five minutes min-utes before unscrewing. When sealing Mason jars with Glass Top Seal Caps, put the rubber flat around the rim on the under side (top side has the name on it) of the lid, then place the lid so the rubber lies flat between the top of the jar and the lid. Screw the metal band tight and then loosen by turning it back one-fourth turn. This band must be loose while the jars are in the canner. (Failure to keep this in mind has caused a lot of painful burns.) They are tightened after processing. The metal bands should be taken off the jars the next day after the canning is done. . Yes, if the manufacturer's instructions are followed, the jars will stay sealed without the bands. When ready to open, run the sharp point of a knife between the top of the jar and the rubber. Move knife sidewise as moving it up and down is likely to damage both jar and lid. Opening Vacuum Seals When using Mason jars with vacuum vac-uum seals, place the lid white side down so that the sealing compound rests on top of the jar. Screw the metal band tight as it will go with ordinary hand pressure and leave it that way until the next day. Then take it off and leave it off. No, you don't tighten the band again after processing. Metal lids, especially those which are slightly rounded or domed, are flexible. The compound is softer than a jar rubber. The flexible lid and soft compound permit per-mit steam and air to seep out during processing. That's why the bands are tightened before processing and need not be tightened again. When ready to open the jar, flip the lid off with a bottle Opener, or punch a hole in it and pry it off. The hole is all right because vacuum J seal lids should never be used a second time. When using a lightning type or Ideal jar, put the rubber flat on the sealing surface. Keep the lip out of the way of the wires. Place the lid so that it rests on the rubber. Then pull or push the long wire up until it fits in the groove on top of the lid. Leave the short wire up while the jar is in the canr.er. Push it down against the side of the jar just as soon as you take the jar out of the canner. When ready to open, push the lower low-er bail up and the upper bail down, then pull the rubber out with pliers or run the sharp point of a knife under un-der the rubber, but remember moving mov-ing the knife up and down may chip the jar or lid. Spotlighting UTAH BUNDY SEEKS LAW CHANGE "A revision of the present reclamation recla-mation law as it relates to acreage acre-age limitations, Is hoped for in the near future," declared Ora Bundy, state Publicity and Industrial In-dustrial Development Commission Commis-sion chairman upon his return from a convention of reclamation heads held inDenver. Mr. Bundy, director and president presi-dent of the National Reclamation Association, conferred with representatives rep-resentatives of nine western irrigated irri-gated states and as a result, reso-dutions reso-dutions will probably be prepared by the association to present to congress asking for a change at an early date. "Any revision of the present law" said Mr. Bundy, "must be made on a economic basis for under the reclamation act, a man is limited to a 160racre farm. While it was the original intention inten-tion of the law to provide family-size family-size farming units because of changing economic conditions, the act is no longer applicable to present farming practices. To limit a Utah farmer to 160 acres, actually limits his economic progress pro-gress and the same applies to the rice growers of Texas and the fruit growers of California who farm reclamation acreage."

''4 ON THE HORIZON With an eye to the potentialities potentiali-ties of Utah's postwar future, which by the way is "just around the corner" a tour of highways 89 and 91 by State publicity men revealed that certain cities and towns are doing a fine preliminary prelimi-nary job of preparing to meet the great tourist caravan soon to appear ap-pear on the horizon, to either spend a few profitable days in Utah or to rush through the state enroute to other places where their patronage will be more appreciated. ap-preciated. ' Several worthy examples were cited, among them being St. George. This city's newly paint ed store fronts, curb and guter installations, n i c ely painted houses,-green lawns, clean cafes and good service; modern auto motels, fine museum and above all, a "hustle and bustle" spirit that means "life and progress" marked St. George as a place ready for the nation's greatest era the after-war period just ahead. Acting the part of postwar tourists, the publicity men quickly discovered the things that nauseate and disgust the after-war visitor: ' stinking rest ooms, cafe swarming with houseflys,' house-flys,' lazy indififerent waitresses in filthy uniforms; early edition tourist camps with outdoor plumbing and smelly bed clothes. A tip to the wise should be suf ficient. The coming guests have money, they will demand the best in accommodations. They are highly impressionable. To anyone any-one interested in the immediate and future welfare of Utah,, a visit to St. George is recommended recom-mended as a tonic. way. Revenue Control Roads The amount of miles the state may have in its interregional highway system is strictly controlled con-trolled by the necessity for cer- a : u:i. 3 1 .-j ii designs and the funds allocated for this purpose, it is explained by Row W. McLeese, commission chief engineer. Too many miles on the interregional system would force the' state to use a disproportionate share of revenue on these roads. The present designation of intereegional high ways is based largely on military necessity andi includes highways, U. S. 91, U. S. 30-S and U. S. 40-50. Telling the Russians So the Russiars may know the truth about the great state of Utah, the Department of Publici ty and Industrial Development is sending Elmer Davis, Office of War Information head at Wash ington, D. C, Utah literature set ting forth in detail, Utah's attrac tions, industries and ppportunl ties. It seems that Mr. Davis has found it necessary to revise the booklet, "America Illustrated" which his office is distributing in Russia, and which described several western states, including Utah, as a bleak and barren area with practically no industries and which depends almost entirely en-tirely upon farming for its subsistence. sub-sistence. Collects 19-million Nineteen million dollars, approximately ap-proximately one-half the total true revenue of the Utah state government has been collected as of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1945, according to figures of A. A. Firmage, the tax commission commis-sion cashier. The amount is ex actly $19,502,077.32 and is decrease de-crease of one per cent over the previous fiscal year's collections. Compared with the 1941 fiscal year collections, the 1945 collections collec-tions are 38.25 per cent greater. 1941 was considered a normal year. During the past five years, revenue from income tax receipts, beer taxes and olemargarine taxes have doubled, and sales tax revenue jumped 60 per cent.
