CIDER VINEGAR and ITS MAKING
(By p. ]. O'Gara, Pathologist in
Charge)
How to Treat the Juice.


How to Treat the Juice.
AS soon as the juice has been ex-
pressed from the fruit it is best to
place it in some large receptacle and
permit it to stand for a few days be-
fore barreling. By doing this, a con-
siderable amount of solid matter
held in suspension will settle before
the juice is placed in the barrels.
All containers should be well cleaned
and it is best to scald them with live
steam or boiling water. When the
juice has stood long enough to per-
NIT the solid matter to settle it
should be put into barrels or casks
which should not be filled to more
than two-thirds or three-fourths of
their capacity. 1t is a good plan for
the cinegar maker to have a specific
gravity hydrometer in order to test
the juice before it is put into the
barrels. AS stated above, the Juice
of most of our fall and winter varie-
ties will test 1.055 specific gravity.
This juice will test little more
than II per cent sugar, and if proper
ly handled will make vinegar con-
tanning u per cent acetic acid. AS
the juice ferments it's specific grav-
ity will decrease, and when it has
reached about 1000 or unity all the
sugar will have disappeared through
conversion into alcohol. In practice
not all of the sugar is converted into
alcohol, and therefore the specific
gravity is usually a little greater
than water.

conversion into alcohol. In practice
not all of the sugar is converted into
alcohol, and therefore the specific
gravity is usually a little greater
than water.
Alcoholic Fermentation.
In order to cause the sugar in the
apple juice to be converted into alco-
hol, it is best to add one cake of
compressed yeast to each five gallons
of the juice. The yeast should be
softened with lukewarm water be-
fore putting it into the cask contain
ing the juice. The temperature of
the storage room should be such that
the juice will be held at a tempera-
ture of 65 to IS degrees F. At such
temperatures the yeast plant grows
more rapidly than at lower tempera-
lures, hence fermentation is more
rapid. Higher temperatures will not
be injurious 60 the yeast plant but
there may be a loss of alcohol by
evaporation. The addition of the
yeast plant to the juice is indicated
and the keeping of the temperature
at the optimum point will result in
reducing the period of alcoholic fer
mentation fully one-half.
Acetic Fermentation.
After alcoholic fermentation is
completed, which may be ascertained
by the use of the hydTometer, an
other group of micro-organisms
changes the alcohol into acetic acid.
The principal organisms causing
acetic fermentation are bacterium
aceti and bacterium pasteurianum,
and pure cultures of these organisms
may be obtained for the purpose of
inoculating the apple must after the
surgar has been converted into alco-
hol. After alcoholic fermentation is
completed and before the vinegar
germ is introduced, it is best to draw
off the clear portion of the liquid
and thoroughly rinse out the con-
tainer. The clear liquid is then put
back Finally, add about a gallon
or two of good vinegar to each so
gallons of liquid SO as to acetify it.
A small quantity of mother-of-vine-
gar may be added or the liquid may
be inoculated with pure culture of
vinegar ferment which may be Sc
cured from the U. S. Department Of
Agriculture, Washington, D. C.
If natural fermentation is depend
ed upon, old vinegar barrels in which
good vinegar has been produced are
the best. New barrels of any kind
should be washed out and scalded.
they should be rinsed with some good
vinegar or mother-of-vinegar should
be added before the addition of the
juice.
AS in the case of alcoholic fermen.
tation, the most satisfactory results
for acetic fermentation are obtained
by having the temperature of the
liquid between 65 and rs degrees F.
The containers should be only partly
filled as indicated above, and free
access of air should be permitted.
If the barrels or casks are placed
upon their sides and two-inch holes
are bored in each head, one near the
surface of the liquid and one near
the top of the cask, free circulation
of air is assured. These holes should
be covered with vanished metal net
ting to prevent the entrance of vine
gar flies.

The offering next Sunday morning will be for the Home Bible school.
 The officers of the Spalding Library
 Associvtion are pleased to state that 1t
 has been decided to drop the fee of %
 cents a year to card holders. Every
 one who is member of the parish will
 be allowed card for drawing books.
 The library will be open as heretofore I on Saturdays from 6 to 5. 1t will also
 be open for half an hour after the
 Bible school session on Sundays. It will not be open on Thursday evenings
 unless there is an urgent demand for
 it. It is earnestly desired to make the
 library useful to all our people and es-
 pecially to the boys snd girls. We
 have good collection of books and the gift of $75 of the Ladies Social circle will enable us to add new ones from time to time. We have excellent helps
 on Bible study and interesting books on missions. Assistance will be glad ly given those looking for information
 in these or any lines also to the young people who may want material on their public school lessons or who may wish direction in their reading.
 Arrangements have been made with Enos Bacon, the Yorkshire Nightin- gale, to give an entertainment on Fri
 day evening, Feb. 9th. MT. Bacon ap-
 peared in the program at the C. E.
 convention at Atlantic City this last
 summer and captivated his hearers by

 The following letter is in response to
 the barrel of clothing, etc., sent by the
 ladies a few months ago.
 Marion, Ala, Dec. 5, l9t1. | My dear Mrs. CarpeuteT:-
 The barrel was received last week in time for the Friday sale and we were
 very glad to have the things to offer the people who came, for we have not
 had a new supply for some tune. The clothing was all very good and service i able and every bit will be used to the best advantage. Some of the ribbons and other things l put away to use at Christmas when they will give much | pleasure. The winter has begun un-
 usually early and as the crops have
 been poor the people are expecting a | long hard winter. So feel that peo- l pie are doing real missionary work I when they send clothing to help them 1 in their time of need. If you could come to the store some day when we have a sale and see the poverty and
 hear how many miles some have come
 I am sure you would feel repaid for all ! your work. l am very grateful in deed for the interest you have taken in | our school and for your help. Thank I ing you and all who helped with the 1 barrel 1 am
 Most gratefully,
