president of the combined institutions.
Mr. Sabin. now the president OF the
National Copper bank. will become the
first vice-president
The plan originally contemplated the
adoption Of the English plan Of joint

this seemed impracticable under the
national banking laws it has been ar
ranged that Mr.. Sabin shall divide with
Mr.. McGarrah the powers and duties
OF president.

KIND OF APPLES 10 USE.
a Only ripe apples should b
= used with not too much of an acit
t flavor. Most varieties of apple.
( commonly available possess tn,
, requisite amount Of sugar wher
ripe, but not when green. The
apples should not be decayed or
over-ripe. because the amount oil
sugar is lessened in such apples.
The apples should be clean when
gathered and if not, they should
be made so by washing. The
objection to dirt in the apple
juice is the danger Of introducing
forms of fermentation that will
interfere with the normal alco.
holic and acetic lamentations
which are desired.
PREPARATION OF AppLE-Ju1cr.
In the grinding and pressing
OF the apples, care should be
taken to observe ordinary pre-
cautions of cleanliness. In many
eases, 1t is the practice to add |
water to the apple-pomace after
pressing, let it stand awhile and
press again. This treatment
yields an additional amount of
juice, which, however, does not
usually contain the requisite
amount of sugar to make g9od
vinegar, provided the first pres
sing has been efficient. Avoid
tho use Of juice made from second
pressing il you wish to make only
nigh-grads yinegars. II.
PUTTING APpLE.JUrcE M BARRELS.
When practicable it is a good
''lan to store the freshly pressed
'pple-Juice in some large covered |
eceptaole and allow 1t to stand c
