Tips from Miss Lynn Chambers emphasize safe prep for home canning with pressure cookers. Clean vegetables thoroughly, process exact times, use loose packing for corn peas greens and lima beans, and ensure jars seal properly.

Do It Yourself Lipholstery Repairs At Home
The guide explains cost saving by working on a corner at a time using a box or old table for height. Remove outer covering to pattern, then strip padding springs and webbing and note placement. Re-web bottom with new webbing and a homemade stretcher using No 4 tacks and a tack hammer.
Lynn Says How Many Jars Will It Take
Home canners seek guidance on jar counts with rules of thumb for common staples. Tomatoes require 8 pounds per quart jar, beans yield 17 to 20 quarts per bushel, greens vary by harvest, corn gives about 14 pints per 100 ears, beets yield 6 pints per stalk or 2 pints cut, and peas provide 14 pints per bushel.
