Miss Swinney ex-; plained to the Indian women and girls that the reasons for canning ! foods are to provide a ‘ winter health garden” of vegetables and fruit, to have a variety in winter meals, to preserve vegetables and fruits when [ they are abundant and cheap for a time when they are scarce and expensive, and to provide for emergency meals.Equipment.Different equipment such as class and tin containers, steam cookers, pressure cookers, jar rubbers, jar lifters, a scalding vessel, etc., were , discussed by Miss Sw inney as well as the proper method of cutting a j chicken so that it may be packed to the best advantage, and sealing the cans.La Rue Emerson of the ToledoGo-Getters club and vice-president of the 4-H girls' county organization, and Opal Whitford. also of ! the Toledo Go-Getters, attended the meeting and helped with the work.At a recent meeting of the Ne-No-Tal 4-H club Bertha Waseskuk.

Chicago.April 20.—The futures hog market worked lower in the course of theweek, the tendency toward lowerprices in the cash market having a depressing influence. The bearish-ncss carried through to September contracts, the month in which most interest is manifest at present.September contracts for heavy as well as light hogs were obtained at S8.50 to $8.60 in the course of the week whereas such contracts sold upward to $9 when trading in that month opened March 1. Sales a week ago were recorded up to $8.75 with sellers usually demanding $9 or above. Most interest has been shown in the lightweight division although bu.\ers have been placing bids mi medium and heavyweights as well. April lightweights were held at around $8 with indifferent bids around $7.50 as the week closed. May contracts for light descriptions could be had at $8.10 and bids were posted up to $8. whereas asking prices were listed at $8 25 early in the week. June lightweights were sold at $8.15 later in the week, this price presupposing practically no advance until that time.Mediumweichts for May were heldaround $8 with buyers willing togive $7.75 in anticipation of a narrowing of the price spread, a development which has been postponed longer than was expected through the early months of the year. The price spread narrowed slightly last week but that was due mainly to the fact that shippers, who furnish most competition on lightweights, bought sparingly while local interests bought more freely of the heavier descriptions because of a splurge in the fresh loins market.Prices on pork loins advanced asmuch as $4 at Chicaago in the course of the week while the advance was held to around $1 at New York. If this distortion of prices proves of a temporary nature the price spread promises to expand again unless the nature of the hoof supply changes.averaged a ne a pound on al Duncan report from 3 to 7 cer when the bala is sole Charle; town, presidemtion, told the based his estin turns on result 1.000,000 pounlt; He said that tof the 1,250 0Cyear in Iow a f C.
