however, only clean, sound fruit
should be used and il should be well
ripened, but not overripe. The grapes
should first be crushed and pressed in
an ordinary cider mill or by hand IL
no mill is available.
Red Juice.-For red Juice, the
crushed grapes are heated to about
! 200 degrees Fahrenheit before the Juice
is separated from the pulp and then
strained through a clean cloth or drip
bag without pressure. Thereafter, the
process Is the same as for Iight-colored
juice.
Grape Juice should be stored away
IN bottles or jars that are not too large,
for after these have been opened the
juice is likely to spoil. If properly
made. however. the juice should keep
indefinitely as long as it is kept In
sealed tottles.

mixture in a kettle or vat vigorously
fer five minutes. Pour the liquid into
vessels. preferably glass Jars or pitch
ers; allow to stand six or eight hours,
or until perfectly clear. Pour the clear
liquid into a preserving kettle. Do not
allow sediment at bottom to enter. Add
to the clear liquid one level teaspoon
ful Of lime carbonate and stir thor
oughly. The process is completed by
boiling down rapidly TO a clear liquid.
Use density gauge or candy thermome-
ter and bring the temperature up to
300 degrees Fahrenheit If a thermOm-
eter is not available, boil until bulk is
reduced to one-seventh Of the original
volume. To determine whether the
strip is cooked enough test as for
candy-by pouring a little into cold
water. If boiled enough ii should have
the consistency of maple strip. II
should not be cooked long enough to
harden like candy when tested.
When the test shows that the strip
has been cooked enough, pour ii into
fruit Jars, pitchers, etc, and allow 1t
10 cool slowly. Slow cooling is i'm
portant, as otherwise the suspended
matter will not settle properly and the
strip will be cloudy.

STORE FRUIT JUICES
How to Prepare for the Future
Comfort of the Family.
ALL FRUITS CAN Be UTILIZED
Grape Juiee-sirup Made From Wind
fall Apples and Apple Cider
Here is a Fine Flavor
ing Strip.

(From the United States Department OF
Agriculture)
Various fruit juices may be prepared
In the home and bottled for future use.
Practically any fruit may be used IN
the first recipe following.
SteriIixed Fruit Juices.-The fruit
juice may be pressed out of fruit by
means of cider press. special fruit
press, or other improvised presses; then
heated in an acid-proof kettle up to
40 degrees Fahrenheit. The fruit juice
may then be poured into ordinary hot
jars, hot bottles. or tin cans, and ham
died by the same directions as those
for canning of fruit itself. If poured
into miscellaneous bottles. ii is sug-
gested that the fruit juice be sterIlized
as follows:
Make a cotton stopper and press
into the neck of the bottle and leave
during the sterilization period. Set
neck of the bottle, sterilizing the fruit
juice for 80 minutes at a simmering
temperature (16j degrees Fahrenheit).
Remove the product, press cork in top
over cotton stopper Immediately. II the
cork fits well, no parafiin need be used.
If poor cork, 1t may be necessary To
dip the cork in melted solution Of wax
or paraffin. Fruit juices and apple
cider when handled in this way viii
not "fiatten in taste" and viii keep
fresh for future use.

Try This on Chiuuers.

Collodion is said to give relief from
the irritation caused by the bites of
chiggers. Collodion is a solution of
gun cotton In alcohol and ether. When
1t is applied to the skin, the alcohol
and ether evaporate, leaving a color
less film which adheres to the skin.
An application of cOllodion is excel
lent treatment for hang nails. The
bottle should be kept lightly corked.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Jams are made of small fruits which
are not whole or firm enough 10 use
for preserves. No attempt is made
to retain the original shape Of the
fruit, the finished product having a
uniform consistency. Marmalades have
a more jellylike texture and thin slices
of the fruit appear suspended through
out the mixture. In fruit buffers and
pastes frequently less sugar is used
than in jams and the product is more
concentrated. Conserves may be made
of large or small fruits, cooked in
the same manner as jams. Sometimes
nuts are added.
In stirring jams use wooden spoon
or paddle, moving it across the CEN
ter of the vessel first one way and then
the opposite, and next around the pan,
gently moving the mixture from the
bottom of the pan, being careful not
to stir rapidly or beat. Cook the jam
to 105 degrees Centigrade or 221 de
grees Fahrenheit, if a thermometer is
used.
If a cooking or chemical .hermome-
ter is available more accurate results
can be obtained by its use. The prop
er condition of the cooked fruit can
be determined approximately, how
ever, without the use of such instru-
ments. For determining when they
are finished most jams may be given
the same test as finished jelly; that
is. when a little is held a moment and
cooled in spoon. it will not pour from
the side of the spoon. but win fall in
a sheet or flake. This is not true Of
jams made of peaches, cherries, straw
berries, and other fruits not contain.
ing pectin, the iellying principle. When
using such fruits. cook until the jam
is of the desired consistency.
Well glazed hermctically sealed
stoneware jars with capacity Of eight
ounces and up, are suitable and at
tractive containers for packing jams
marmalades, etc. large necked bot
ties, glasses, etc, also may be used

Light-colored Juice. - After the

procedure depends upon whether d
white or a red product is desired. For

Berry Jar.--In selecting berries for
jam the ripe, broken ones will give
fine color and favor, but about one
half the quantity should be slightly M
derripe. This is necessary 10 give a
jelly-like consistency TO the product
Cooking In small Quantities also helps
to retain color and favor. Weigh the
berries and allow three-fourths OF
pound Of sugar to each pound of fruit
Rapid cooking with constant care is
essential.
Peach Jam.-Two and one-quarter
pounds peaches cut into small pieces,
one pound sugar, six whole allspice,
one cracked peach seed. one inch gin
ger root, one-half cupful peach Juice,
one-half teaspoonful whole cloves, one
teaspoonful cinnamon bark, one sprig
mace. (Tie spices in cheesecloth bag)

of sugar II is then cooked until very
thick. Scalded and chopped nut ker-
nels may be added. The pulp remain

Pear ard Ounce Preservation

same proportion Of sugar and fruit.
Cut the fruit into half-circle slices.
Cook the fruit until almost tender in

WORDS OF WISE MEN
The high impulse should be
followed at any risk.


Unless a man undertakes TO
do more than he possibly can do
he will never do all that he can
do.
The hardest thing in the world
is self-control, and the saving Of
money means the exercising of
self-control in all directions at
once, That is what makes saw
ing so hard.
No book is worth anything
which is not worth much; nor
