TO MAKE CONCENTRATED AP- PILE CIDER ON A COMMERCIAL
 SCALE

The specialists of the fruit and veg etable utilization laboratory of the de- partment have completed arrange ments for commercial test of the re- gently discovered method of concen- tratlng apple cider by freezing and centrifugal methods. As a result. a cider mill in the Hood River Valley. Oreg., will this fall undertake to man. ufacture and test on the retail market 1000 gallons of concentrated cider, which will represent 5000 gallons of ordinary apple cider with only the water removed.
 The new method it is believed, makes possible the concentrating of cider in such a way that it will keep better than raw cider, and also be so reduced in bulk that it can be shipped proftably long distances from the apple-growing regions. The old at tempts to concentrate cider by boiling have been failures because heat des- troys the delicate flavor of cider. Un- der the new method nothing is taken from the cider but the water, and the resultant product is a thick liquid which contains all the apple juice pro- ducts and which can be restored to excellent sweet cider by the simple ad- dition of four parts of water. The shippers and consumers, therefore, avoid paying freight on the water in ordinary cider. In addition, the pro- duct, when properly barreled, because of its higher amount of sugar, keeps better than raw cider, which quickly turns to vinegar.
 The process, as described by the departments specialists, consists of freezing ordinary cider solid. The ci- der ice is then crushed and put into centrifugal machines such as are used in making cane sugar. When the ci- der ice is whirled rapidly the con- centrated juice is thrown off and col lected The water remains in the ma chine as ice.
 At ordinary household refrigerator temperatures this sirup-like cider will

keep perfectly for a month or six weeks, and if kept at low temperatures in cold storage will keep for prolonged periods. At ordinary house tempera- lures it, of course, will keep shorter time
 Ito make the concentrated sirup. the cider mill must add to its equip ment an ice-making machine and cen trifugal machinery, so that the pro- cess is not practicable on a small scale. The specialists are hopeful, however, that the commercial test soon to be inaugurated in Oregon will show that it will be possible for apple producers to prolong the market for cider.

 Whereas. the secretary of the navy has issued an order abolishing the Of fcers' wine mess aboard warships in the interest of efficiency; and
 Whereas, the commissioner of In dian affairs has set the example Of total abstinence and appealed to all employees i'll the Indian department to be a personal object-lesson in the enforcement of the laws forbiddiGS the sale of liquors to Indians; and
 Whereas, business firms are insist ing upon abstinence from the use oi liquors as a prevention against acct- dents, and because of it's relation to efficiency; therefore,
 Be 1t resolved that we appeal to the board of education to require ab- stinence from alcoholic liquors of all members of the supervising force of the public schools of the city of New York. including superintendents and principals, of all teachers, clerks janitors and their assistants, in the in terest of efficiency, and for the sake of the example set before the youth committed to their care.

 q see," said Boethe in 1880. tbat important events are about to take place in Paris; we are on the eve of great explosion. But since I have no influence upon it shall wait for it quietly, without allowing myself to be unnecessarily excited every day by the interesting progress of the drama. I now read neithed the Globe ont the Temps, and my Wlarpugisnacht pro- gresses the better for it."
 Miss Jane Addams has just spoken of the setback to social service in this country that the explosion" in Europe has given. Implying the psychology of this, Miss Addams said: "When a million men are suffering with cold and wounds in the trenches what are a few children suffering under hard con- ditions in factories? What are old age pensions and the problem of in- fant mortality?"
 We have work of our own to do over here, but we may not attend to it be- cause we shall be too busy directing the battle for the Gremans and the allies. It is pity, we are not as mod est as Goethe, and, acknowledging that We have no influence upon Euro pean affairs, go on with our own knit ting.
