Annie Butter


There is no better way to use good
apples, says the department, than to
make them into butter. The sound
portions of windfalls. wormy, and
bruised apples may also be used. The
better the apple the better the butter
will be. In apple butter with cider
either fresh sweet cider or CONNER
cial sterilized cider should be used
after being boiled down to about half
its original quantity. The peeled and
sliced apples may be cooked in the
boiled cider, or they may be first
made into apple sauce, which is then
cooked in cider. 1t usually takes
about equal quantities of sweet cider
and sliced apples to make butter of
the right consistency. In other words,
two gallons of sweet cider should be
boiled down to one gallon, and two
gallons Of the prepared apples should
be added to it either uncooked or as
apple sauce. The two essentials of
good apple butter are long, slow
cooking-from four to six hours--and
frequent stirring. If sugar is used,
it should be added after the cooking
is about two-thirds done. About one
pound of sugar is the usual proper
ton for each gallon of apple butter,
but more or less may be used to suit
the taste. The butter may be spic-
ed with cinnamon, cloves, and all
spice, or with any one Of the three,
the spices being stirred in when the
cooking is finished.
While still boiling hot the butter
should be packed in sterilized glass
receptacles, or in stone jars, with
fhorouVh precartions AGAINST spoil-
ing as with any other preserves.

Good apple butter may be made
without cider. In this case enough
water is added to make q thin apple
sauce. Brown sugar rather than
white sugar Is ordinarily used. If a
grape flavor is desired, IL may be OBJ

Cheese is believed to be the oldest
of the dairy products and the first
form in which milk was preserved
Although it has been a staple food fo1
numberless years, in many cases it is
used only as an accessory to the diet
there being a prevailing belief that il
causes physiological disturbances
when used in large quantities. The
conclusions drawn after many expert
ments by the government specialists
however, is that cheese, properly pre-
pared and used, is not generally the
cause of any physical disturbance and
that it may easily be placed on the bill
of fare in such quantities as to be the
chief source of heterogeneous food, TAX
ing the place of meat, fish, eggs and
foods of similar composition.
Experiments have shown that
cheese, whether eaten raw or careful
ly cooked, is as thoroughly digested
as other staple foods and is not like
ly to produce any digestive disturb
ance.
Estimating roughly an ounce of
cheese is the equivalent of one glass
of milk, two ounces of meat or one
egg.
From the standpoint of the house
keeper, cheese is of Importance be-
cause of its high food value, the ease
with which it can be kept and the
numberless ways it can be prepared
for use.
Cheese is made ordinarily from
whole milk and most of the kinds best
known in our country from cows
milk. In the process of cheese max
ing the casein is precipitated by the
action of rennet, forming curd. The
curd is broken up and the whole heat
ed to temperature between SO and
108 degrees Fahrenheit. The whey is
then drained off and the curd sailed
and pressed. 1t is kept for a period
in a cool place where it ''ripens." de-
veloping fiavors through the action of
bacteria, and undergoing other mark
ed changes, It's original pastiness
gives way to a granular consistency
in some types and to a buttery con-
ssistency in others.
There are many variations in re-
spect to the kind of milk used, the
amount of cream retained, or added
to the milk, the methods of separat-
ing and preparing the curd, and the
ripening of the cheese. This accounts
for the almost endless variety of
cheeses, with their different names,
appearances and flavor.
The American factory cheese is of
the English Cheddar type and is the
most commonly used of all the COM
mercial varieties. 1t is usually pale
to dark yellow, though it may be
white when uncolored. When fresh

j. G. ROckwelPs "Sunny South"
Company.

There are few more popular theat-
rical attractions on the road than
the j. c. Rockwell Sunny South"
company, which will be seen in the
opera house, Island Pond, Saturday
evening, October 18th.
The Sunny South" although bill
ed under it's old title, is, neverthe-
less, bran new performance from
the rise to the final fall of the cur
tain. This season Mr.. Rockwell
claims to have the newest, freshest,
most artistic and thoroughly equip
ped colored show ever sent on tour.
He backs his claim and arrests pub
lie attention by presenting a musical
performance that has more original
ideas and up-to-the-minute novelties
than any similar attraction. AS on
its former visits it will be found to
be clean to fault and during the
entire performance there is not a
line, an action nor an insinuation to
which exception can be taken. The
fun, which will be handed over the
footlights, is all new and needs no
arrow to point the way to the laughs.
1t is a musical show, welded to the
most tuneful music one would care
to listen to, full of ginger and life,
with not a dull moment from begin
ming to end.
The organization is accompanied
by a solo concert band and an excel
lent orchestra. The "Koontown'
parade, a decided novelty, takes
place at three pm. The prices OF
admission have been placed at 35
and so cents. Seats are now selling
at Kane's Drug Store.

Mine OWNER,

Are MURDERED
Entire Family Shot In Back
Business Partner in
Jail.

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, July 16-To clear
the mystery surrounding the shooting
yesterday near Carrolltown, this coun-
ty. of Edward Humphries, prominent
coal operator; Mrs. Carrie Humphries,
his wife; and their Is year old son,
Edward, all members of an automo-
bile party. was thes task taken up to-
day by the authorities. The greatest
factor in the solution of the murder
mystery, they said today, Is George
K Tompkins, Jr., of Philadelphia, the
fourth member of the automobile
party, who IL held at the county Jail
IN Ebensburg at the request of a cor
oner's jury. .Tempkins and Hum
phries were associated together in
coal company formed about six weeks
ago.
Three members OF the HUMPHREYS
family were held up and shot by three
masked highwaymen, according to the
story told to Sheriff Milhellen yester-
day by Tompkins and reiterated by
him today. Accepting his explana-
ton OF the triple murder, posses scour-
I'd the country near the scene of the
shooting for hours yesterday. but gave
up the search when the sheriff said
that statements made by Tonpkins
were at variance with facts brought
cut at the inquest.
According to the story told by
Tompkins the highwaymen surprised
che party while a punctured tire was
being repaired and that the shots
which caused the death OF the Hum
phries were fired at distance of 20
feet in front Of the automobile. After
examining the bodies Coroner Fitz-
gerald announced that all the bullets
were fired at close range, powder
burns being found on two of the bod
les. and that the shots were fired from
behind.
Another question to be put to Tomp-
k1ns today was In regard to several
cutn ON his head and chest which, ac-
cordfng to the coroner, were caused by
q blunt instrument.
