MAKE APPLE SUGAR
Former Topekan Tells How to Use
Fruit Juice to Make Sweets.

The following sugar saving SuggeS-
ton was mailed to the State Journal
by w F. Ripley, a former fruit and
vegetable product manufacturer of
North Topeka, who is now living in
Oregon:
There are millions of pounds of avail
able sugar in the apples lying on the
ground in the orchards thru the United
States. Apple juice in all mature apples
contains an average of 10 per cent sugar
or about 81 pounds to 100 pounds If ap-
Piles.
Wash and trim these apples, and cook
them in considerable water drain the
cooked apples thru a sack, an inside sugar
sack will do as it has an open mesh that
allows the juice to pass thru freely Re
duce this juice by boiling a little, skim
off any sediment that rises. fill and seal
while hot in bottles, Jugs or jars just the
same as fruit.
Now this juice is available any time for
making Jelly, preserves, apple sauce, pud-
ding sauce, fruit and vegetable chutneyS,
mince pies, summer drinks and in various
ways where sugar and fruit is desired. If
the apples have been frozen several times
it has only concentrated the sugar by
freezing out the water: the apples can be
to decay, even then the juice will make
vinegar.
Perhaps you and / have not considered
seriously the saving habit before. may
have plenty now. but we know that many
Of the other fellows are short and we
cannot tell when we also may be very
glad to have even the juice from Gull
apples.
Don't wait until some United States food
commissioner comes along and prods you
into action. w. f. RIPLEY,
The Dalles, Oregon.

PLATINUM so SCARCE!
War Has Sent 1t From $40 to S11O
an Ounce.

Washington, Nov 13-An- Ameri-
can firm-Adolph Lewisohn & Son. of
81 Broadway, New York, has the
valuable concession - ian absolute
monopoly)-of mining C o m b i a n
platinum.
Platinum war metal more cost
" than gold, is today selling for $110
an ounce, the Council of National De-
Tense states, altho the government is
filling all its needs at $65 an ounce.
Before the war platinum was worth
only $40 an ounce. Stopping the Rus
sian supply to America-before Amer.
lea entered the war. and the urgent
demand for platinum for making
sparkers in spark plugs, boosted the
price.
Today, prospectors are securing the
far corners of the world for platinum
deposits. The rich placer platinum
deposits in the San Juan and Con-
1ote rivers in Colombia are being
drawn on heavily to fill the need.
While there is no national shortage
in America for war platinum, the
Council of National Defense has eau
toned against lavish use of the prec-
ious metal for making watch or cigar
cite cases.
It's use in smaller, and more in
tricately wrought jewelry is permitted,
however.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
A few applications of Sage Tea and
Sulphur bring back its Vigor,
color, gloss and youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into
heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luXuriant. Just
a few applications will prove a revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome. An easier way is to get a
bottle of Wyeths Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This is the old-time recipe
improved by the addition of other in
gradients
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
no one can tell, because il does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
q sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing all gray hairs have disappeared
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark
glossy, soft and Iuxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful tot
let requisite and is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.-Advertisem

CAN'T EAT ALL SPUDS
Considering Huge Over Supply Ought
To Sell at SO Cents a BusheI.

Chicago, Nov. 13.-The Armour
Grain company today declared that
only the reduction of potatoes to SO
cents a bushel will prevent fully 1907
600, 900 bushels of the new crop from
rotting or being fed to live stock.
IF consumers could buy them at
SO cents a bushel, nearly all of the
immense crop would be consumed,
making a great saving in wheat and
other foods, on which the government
is economizing," declared a statement
by the Armour concern.
But consumers are paying around
$1.40 a bushel and are, therefore, us
ing them very sparingiy.
THE government estimated the po-
tato crop on farms at 1874 00n,00
bushels more than last year and that,
added to the big war garden crop.
makes very large amound over
last years supply.
The food administration has an
nouneed the appointment of Samuel
Livingston of Wisconsin as potato
censor for this action. He will in
spect every car that is unloaded to
determine whether any potatoes fit
for consumption are left in it.

Just east of Yates Center is one of
the demonstrations of the ancient
idea of the value of oil wells. Six
teen years ago a well was sunk m
pasture on this spot. The promoters
were hunting for gas Instead of gas
they found oil. Oil was not bringing
the price it does now and the well
was abandoned.
There that well sits today
mute evidence of how times and val
ues- have changed. The oil is within
ten feet of the top of the casing. On
the ground is a tin can attached to a
wire. Farmers in the fields for years
have let this can down in the well to
gather just enough of the substance
to oil their machinery. For sixteen
years this oil-this gold mine without
a rainbow-has been peeping up
thru a ten-inch casing at the brassy
Kansas sky. Weeds and hay have
grown around it. Today there is the
trace of motor car paths to its Sc
Guided hiding place. 1t is becoming
an envious curiosity. Some day
possibly-someone will think enough
of this old staunch friend of sweet
sixteen to drop a squeaky pump into
its hiding place and realize comforts.

Can You Guess Girls &
(By LESLEY

Manager Loeb of the Evengeline
took a Review representative into
his confidence this morning, and
exhibited to him the grand prize
that some lucky girl or boy is soon
to become the p~ossessor of in the
next few weeks. It's worth while,
believe me, and the lucky youngster
who is to become the owner will
make the others sit up with envy
when he o. she gets it. Already
there have been several dozen cou-
pons from the Review, which was
published yesterday, turned into the
Box Office last night, and tonight
Manager Loeb is going to announce
on a slide at the Theatre, the name
of the girl or boy who wins the
weeks pass for sending in the pro-
per name of the prize. He wants
your name whether you have guess
ed the name of the prize or not, so
if you cannot fill out the missing
letters today send in your name any
way so that you can get a chance at
winning this wonderful prize that
actually cost $500 plus freight.
You can take my word for it, that it
is more than worth your time to try
and own this valuable gift. It will
be on exhibition ct the Opera House
evening, and every even
ing thereafter until Manager Loeb
must part with it, thereby making a
GLAD HEART when the
award is made. Do not think that it
is going to take any hard work to
claim ownership of this valuable
gift. All that you need be is q real

Lifting Power Of Heat.

Weight can be raised by heat, and
n this agent Is a great source of me-
chanical power.
A pound Of coal produces by it's
combination with oxygen an amount of
heat which, If mechanically applied,
would suffice to raise a weight of 100
pounds to a height of 20 miles above
the earth.s surface. Conversely. 100
pounds falling from a height of 20
miles and striking against the earth
would generate an amount Of heat
equal to that developed by the COM
bustion Of a pound Of coal.
Wherever work is done by heat, heat
disappears. A gun which fires a ball
Is less heated than one which fires a
blank cartridge. The quality of heat
communicated to the boiler of a work
ing steam engine Is greater than that
which could be obtained from the re-
condensation of the steam after if had
done Its work, and the amount of work
performed is the exact equivalent Of
the amount of heat lost.
