[4]

I did most of my canning in glass jars as we had a good many emty [empty] jars and I had so far to go before I get them canned.

We did not have many meeting as we lived so far apart; but one time we all meet together and had our pictures taken.

I have learned a great many things about canning which I shall never forget. One thing is not to fill your cans too full of tomatoes, as I had one very sad experience at that.

On account of the blight my crop did not yield but about 258 lbs. of tomatoes and beans together. I used 104 lbs at home sold 30 lbs. fresh, and canned 14 one-half gal. jars of fruit from from [crossed out] farm and orchard and 14 one-half and 4 qts from Club garden besides 30 tin cans.
