this fascinating literature a Chicago
woman adds a charming fable relating
to what you can get out of a peck OF
red apples. She says:
I'VE washed them carefully, pared
about half of them for apple sauce,
and covered and set aside the skins
and cores in a cool place. We filled a
two-quart Jar with sauce for future
use and the balance served us two
days.
I'VE then prepared the second lot
for sauce tie same way, put all the
skins and four whole apples sliced fine
over the fire, barely covered with
water. and simmered until soft. This
was poured into a double cheesecloth
bag and allowed to drip until T had

Encouraging reports are coming from
the factory districts of many States.
Almost every day mills are opening
and idle men are going to work.
In the Pittsburg district several thou
sand more men are busy than there
were during January.
From Ohio, Indiana and Illinois
come dispatches showing that where
factories and mills are closed they are
nosg running on full or part time.
Throughout the country there is the
cheering news that business is picking
up and workmen are again getting
busy.
Orders are coming in more freely and
this indicates that within a short time
there will be work for other thousands.
This is good news for the middle of

cnrse of Depression.

There have been some heavy failures
IN the silk industry ia the United States
recently. Was it the money stringeacy
or the food Of German silk manufac-
turers made by low-priced Prussian la
bor that caused them? Other lines that
have suffered serious financial reverses
are manufacturers of knit goods, cotton
cloths. paper and WOODEN dress goods.
In the light OF the German trade sta
tistics an explanation for this depres-
sion can be found entirely outside Of
the stringency in the money market.
