>Ball canning jars are still being used today, but, not for beer, they are
used for the good stuff the homemade type, I know the last man caught with
a
"still" here in N. Virginia, he and his brother both worked on the estate
of
George Washington at Mt.Vernon where the "still" was located, now who would
ever look for a still at Mt. Vernon, the Feds caught them with a fresh made
batch of good "corn" and that was back in 1946, they had 12 dozen "Ball"
gallon jugs. I was rather close to this man !! "FT"

A friend of mine uses his for tomatoes. Clever, huh?
