CANNING FRUIT
WITHOUT SUGAR

High cost of sugar at the present
time is causing considerable worry
among the housewives who desire to
do their accustomed canning of fruit
With the view to meeting this prob
lem the state experiment station at
Pullman will issue popular bulle-
tin on Canning Without Sugar. -
There is common notion among
housewives that to do canning eff
fectiyely "A considerable amount Of
sugar is necessary
DR.. j. S. Caldwell, author Of the
above mentioned bulletin, calls at
tention to the fact that practically
all fruits may be canned without the
use of sugar. Such fruit preserves
more of the natural appearance and
flavor than does the fruit put up
in heavy sugar syrup; is fully as pal
atable and much more easily digest
ed: is in better condition for use in
cooking, and is available for all pur-
poses for which fruit canned in syrup
could be used The bulletin points
out that while heavy sugar syrup
aids in "a slight degree in preventing
growth of the yeast and bacteria
which cause spoilage, perfect sterili-
cation makes the use of sugar un-
necessary.
The bulletin gives detailed direc-
lions for canning without sugar by
the cold Pack Method and by the
"Open Kettle method Attention
| is also called to methods of canning
in tin cans, together with recipes for
canning with the use of sugar for
those whose purses will permit OF
| this method at the present time. A
number of valuable suggestions are
made in regard to the handling OF
| fruits. containers, etc, with view
| to economizing labor and insurlng
better preservation of fruit. The
bulletin may be obtained upon APP
plication to the experiment station

UNABLE 10 BE THERE
But Rev. w. II. Perdew Seat a
Splendid Booster Message.

Unable to attend the union services
in the interests Of Penn college, Rev.
w. H. Perdew sent the following in
spring message:
Rochester. Minnesota,
June 20, 1916.
DR.. David M. Edwards,
Oskaloosa, Iowa.
I very much regret that circum'
stances which take me from the city
prevent my being present and taking
some humble part in the great Penn
Booster Meeting" on Sunday night in
my own church.
II is to be sincerely hoped that the
good people of Oskaloosa and Mahas'
ka county shall appreciate the neces'
sity for very great effort and sacrifice
to save Penn college to this commun'
ity, and to reestablish on much larg'
er and better basis the old school
which has done so much for Christian
culture and better citizenship in the
past and which faces such unparallel
ed opportunities for the, training OF
the youth of the future. a..,.
May the campaign for $40O.OOO.0C
in every way be successful, not only
in securing the full amount sought
for, but may God so bless the people
with such cooperating vision and be
neyolenee that all the needs of the
school shall be abundantly provided
for.
Having just come through little
campaign for our own Wesleyan col
lege, | am in fullest sympathy and &C
cord with this movement for Penn
| am an ardent advocate and defender
Of the smaller church college. There
are not too many such colleges dedi
Gated to the holy task of training VI
men and women in that atmosphere
created by proper emphasis upoT
the principles of the Gospel of the
Son of God, but there are too few pa
irons Of such schools, people you car
rise above the ross materialism Il
appreciate the value of life above
living. ....... --
Oskaloosa can easier afford to lost
any combination of interests, com
mercial or material, than to LOSE
Penn college. Let us hope that oul
citizens see this to be true. as we be
lieve they will, and respond with thu
heroism of great sacrifice, If neces
sary, to make possible a greater ant
a better Penn. .aa
Yours for great success.

WILSON IN PLEA
FOR LABOR PEACE
President Urges Calm Counsel in
Setting Disputes.
LABOR TEMPLE DEDICATED
suffraslst Interrupts Address at Cap.
itaI--PoIIee Take Her From Stand
Executive Praises Section
Of Clayton Act.

Washington, July 5.-President VIII
son dedicated "To Common Counsel
and Common Understanding" a labor
temple erected as the new home of the
American Federation Of Labor.
He told a large audience gathered
at the dedicatory exercises that the
greatest barrier to industrial peace had
been the difficulty of insurfng candid
and dispassionate conference, and that
getting our fighting blood up was
1.-The long way and not the short way
of securing rights. a@S ~""'F"
Crowd Appiauds Speech. 'S@
Mr.. Wilson's plea for calm counsel
brought repeated applause from the
crowd, which apparently interpreted ii
as having an indirect bearing on the
Mexican crisis. The president, how
ever, did not refer to Mexico or any
other foreign country by name.
'gThe way we generally, strive for
rights" he said, rs by getting our
fighting blood up, and venture to say
that 1t is the long way and not the
short. If you come at me with your
fists doubled, think can promise you
that mine will double as fast as yours
but, If you come at me and say, Let us
sit down and take counsel together
and, If we differ with one another, un-
derstand why it is that we differ, just
what points are at issue we presently
will find that we are not so far apart
after oil; that the points in which we
differ are few and the points on which
we agree are many, and that, If we
only have the patience and the candor
and the desire to get together, we
shall get together"
Woman Interrupts Speech. g..
The president scarcely had begun to
speak when the first interruption
came. The questioner, Miss Mabel
Vernon of the Woman's party, was
standing only few feet from him,
and, when he declared that in his po-
sition he was not permitted to think
of any one class of persons, she
shouted:
"If you truly desire to serve all
classes, why do you block the national
suffrage amendment now before con-
gress? Four million women In this
country" ~" rr,
The White House secret service men
made their way to Miss Vernon and
quickly siIenccd her. The city police
led her away from the speakers stand.
She was not arrested.
The president apparently was undis.
turbed by the incident.
Nothing that the president said
aroused such enthusiasm as his praise
of that section of the Clayton act de.
claring that labor is not commodity.
