unfermented Grape Juice.

Wash the grapes, free them from the
stems, reject all that are not sound
and place in a kettle. Add only enough
water to cover, bring slowly to the
boiling point, cook until the fruit Is
well softened, then drain as for. jelly.
Place the drained juice in an earthen
dish and keep well covered In a cool
place. The next morning bring to a
boil, let it boil up well, then drain
through a jelly bag. Continue this for
three successive mornings, rejecting all
sediment each time. The last morning
measure the Juice and to each quart
allow a pound of %granulated sugar.
Boil four minutes, strain through a
c~heesecloth, bottle, cork and seal i'm

ready to use and serve in glasses half
filed with cracked ice. This is not only
very refreshing. but very nourishing
as well. Settler water can be used In

BEER.

Whenever there is an election
on the wet and dry question, sa-
loon men and others on the wet
side aay that voting a village,
county or state dry does not de-
crease the consumption of liquor
The following article written by
a Milwaukee brewer and pub
lished in the Sentinel of that
place speaks for itself:
by Gustav Becherer, President
Milwaukee Brewers Association. J
Never in the business life of
present day brewers has our in
dustry had TO contend with such
a combination of discouraging
handicaps as during the last year.
First is the general and continued
assaults of the prohibltionists ;
then we have had increased rail
rates; the very burdensome
emergency war tax imposed at
Washington: the general depres-
sion of business and the conse-
quent unemployment of the labor
ing classes throughout the land :
an unusually cold summer season
and increased wages
Shipping Brewers in Milwaukee
have had a very heavy handicap
in the increased freight rates.
They face still greater obstacles
to their business in the LOSSES in
sales which must result after Jan.
!, 1916, when considerable add
tional territory will enter the dry
column. These are all added bur
dens to the shipping brewers of
Milwaukee, in addition to the
other discouraging trade features
which are shared alike. by all
brewers in the city.
The war tax. besides being a
heavy financial burden, is a most
disastrous disturber of every re-
lation in the trade, and we shrink
at recent reports which leak
through Washington of still
another emergency tax which may
he imposed. The industrial con
ditions, with large numbers of
workmen out of employment, have
seriously affected the consumption
of our product, and | believe
these, together with the unfavor-
able climatic conditions, have re-
suited in the heavy decrease in the
output of Milwaukee brewers for
1915.

Now that we have been granted
a consolidated school and a meet
ing will be called in the near fu-
ture for the election of six di-
rectors it is we'll to consider who
the six shall be. Shall they all
be men, or would it not be we'll
to have some women included in
our school board? 1t has been
suggested that we elect two wo-
men. The American is very
much in favor of this. Women
vote on matters pertaining to
schools so why should they not
have hand in conducting the
affairs of such? They are as
much If not more interested than
men, in the education of their
children. 1t is a common thing
to see women included on school
boards of the larger cities and it's
a good example for us to follow.

Some Queer Tasks to Which Warships
Have Been ASSIGNED,

Not all the tasks warships are
called on to undertake have to do
with war and the destruction of hui
man life and property.
A couple of French warships were
sent out into the Mediterranean
some years ago to wage war against
school of porpoises which were
doing an immense amount of dam
age to the fishing industry in those
waters. After three days hostili-
ties, during which quick firing guns
were used with considerable effect,
the vessels returned to port tri-
umphant, having practically ami
hilated the enemy.
A year or two ago warship of
Great Britain's Australian fleet was
given the strange job of capturing
or destroying mysterious sea mon
ster which had been reported off the
Falkland islands, the scene of the
recent German naval defeat.
1t is pretty safe to say that the
officers, if not the crew, entertain
ed grave doubts of the actual exist
ence Of the frightful creature which
had been described. 1t was too ter
rifying, hideous, gigantic and fero-
cious.
But shortly after the ship arriv-
ed in the waters where the monster
was supposed to lie in wait for YES
sells the officer of the watch describ-
ed a strange looking beast making
toward his ship. and it was imme-
diately guessed that this must be
the substance of all the alarming
tales. And a pretty good substance
it proved too.
An attack was made upon it, and
after some hours lighting with har-

Some years ago the Norwegian

PINE CITY FISHING"
FOR HELP

Pine City seems to be awful
anxious to have resolutions adopt
ed here and there placing a limit
of $4,000 to be expended on the
old court house for additions,
vault room and other improve
ments.
They tried to slip one over on
our Commissioner, Fred Deger-
strom, at the meeting of the
board Monday, Jan. 18th, but it
didn't work out right. He was
on guard. Commissioner Derr
had a resolution in his pocket
which he threw onto the table
and made a motion to adopt same
which was Immediately seconded
by Johnson. Chairmon Deger-
strom being not so hasty says,
lets open it and read it,. Of
course there were several ex-
cuses why it had to be gotten
out in a hurry. Somebody had
to catch a train and this party
had to take the resolution with
him, etc, etc. When Derr dis
covered that the resolution could
not be adopted without being
read he withdrew his motion, and
there she died. Wouldn't it have
been nice If they could have
taken that resolution (if adopted
by the county commissioners up
to Sandstone that evening for
the commercial club meeting and
showed them black on white that
the county commissioners would
reject the report of the architect
employed by the board to draw
plans for necessary repairs to the
court house. and prepare estimate
of their cost, and to place limit
of $4,000 upon such additions
and improvements. Same reso-
luton could have been published
in all the newspapers of the
county.
Away with that kind of stuff
Pine City. What do we care
about all your resolutions and
what few men here and there
say? 1t is perhaps to their per-
sonal benefit to say something
good for Pine City. But to put
even $4,000 repairs on a build
ing that cost less than $4,000 is
nothing short of foolishness. 1t
| is absurd. A child can see that.
$4,000 would perhaps fix it up
temporarily, but there would be
more expense next year and the
following year. and so on. 1t
| would not be long hfeore we had
the $4,000 spent on the old
frame building. and perhaps even
more than that. Think of spend
ing S25. 900 on a frame building
put up 81 years ago at a cost of
less than $4,000.
Suppose we repaired the old
court house at Pine City? That
wouldn't bring it any nearer to
us. No. the location isn't right,
and now that we need a new
court house. we might as well
settle it for all time. and put il
where it belongs, at Hinckley.
