United States Department of Agriculture canning specialists warn that canned corn, peas, beans and asparagus may taste sour and smell disagreeable even when unopened. To avoid this tat-sour problem, gather vegetables within five to six hours, blanch, cool, pack one jar at a time, and load jars into the canner as packed.

Drainage district bids rejected as costs rise

County board rejected bids for drainage district No. 7 along Grant highway citing high prices and unsettled markets. Bids ranged from 61 907.44 for labor only to 158 000 for labor and material with an engineer estimate of 125 000. Open ditch plan, laterals, and assessments would raise costs. The district covers about 700 acres and an open outlet could add 37.50 per acre, plus additional laterals cost. It is unclear if another letting will occur before spring.
