How to Can String Beans.

String beans may be canned whole or
cut into uniform pieces. 1t is essential
that only the young and tender pods be
used for canning.
Select beans OF the same age and color,
string carefully and wash thoroughly.
These should be blanched in boiling wa
ter for five to eight minutes, depending
upon the age, and then plunged into cold
water for an instant. Then the beans
should be packed as closely as possible
into the jars, level teaspoonful of salt
added for each quart of vegetables, and
the rest of the space filed with hot wa
ter.
If using tin cans, seal completely be-
fore sterilization. If using glass jars, ad-
just and partially tighten tops, and ster-
ilize in boiling water for two hours.
After sterilization, remove from boiling
water and finish sealing at once. lnvert
Jars in cool place out of draught till
cold, then wrap in dark paper to prevent
bleaching, and store.

NO PEACE HOPES
In WASHINGTON
State Department Cautious
in Berlin Com
ment
THE MILITARIST
PARTY STRONGER
More Interest Displayed as
to What Austria
Will Do

Washington, July 1.-THE state de-
partment allowed it to be known yester-
day that it sees no hope for early peace
in the recent developments in Germany.
Beyond this, high official declared, il
would be dangerous for him to speculate.
1--WE need more complete information, F"
he said, before we can feel confident of
our conclusion. / can only say that
there is nothing in the reports which we
have to justify the peace talk"
All of the reports referred to, it is
understood, indicate that the political
shakeup that unseated Won Bethmann-
Hollweg has left the militarists and pan
Germanists, with the crown prince at
their head, in stronger position with
the kaiser than they ever were.
In consequence there are many observ-
ers here who look for good deal more
fighting on the part of Germany before
she finally throws up the sponge. 1t is
regarded as entirely probable that va
rious "peace moves" may be encouraged
as means of stirring up peace talk
among the allies, but there are few in
formed persons here who believe that
the elements in control of the govern
ment of Germany are yet ready to sue
for peace.
Altogether there is seen in the situa-
ton the danger of far too much optimism
among Germany's enemies. Nothing, it
is pointed out, would more effectively
serve Germany's interest than for paci.
fist leaders in the British Parliament,
in the Russian Duma, in the French
Chamber and in the American Congress
to begin agitating for an armistice.
Talk of the kaiser abdicating in favor
of the crown prince is not taken over.
seriously in Washington. Certainly, it is
pointed out, such a move would be the
last thing to appease the clamor for re
form in Germany or the enemy nations
abroad.
The crown prince has been VIGOROUSLY
reactionary in his opposition to more
popular government in Germany; and
among the powers that are now lighting
desperately against Germany and to
make the world safe for democracy" he
is known only as the most extreme OF
Prussia's militarists.

NO GERMAN GOLD.
Apparently Used to Foster Recent I. W..
w. Enterprise.

Washington, July lI.-Reports that
the activities of Industrial Workers OF
the World in the west recently had been
financed by German gold have failed of
substantiation after an exhaustive in
vestigation by agents of the department
of justice. Officials said yesterday they
believed that nearly all the German mon
ey in this country has been located and
that virtually none of it has been used
in that way.
A number of arrests were reported
yesterday from various sections Of the
west of members of the /. w. W., I'M

COLORADO MINES ACTIVE.
First Six Months of 1917 Show Increased
Output

Figures of Colorado mine production
for the first six months of 1917 indicate
an increased output of silver, lead, and
copper, but a decrease in gold and zinc
Reports received from Charles w. Hen.
derson of the Denver Office OF the United
States geological survey, department OF
the interior, show that although, dur
ing the first six months of 1917, the
prices for silver, lead, and copper were
higher and the price of zine was nearly
double that in 1914, the actual produce
ton of metals by quantities indicates
for the whole year 1917 an increase OF
IL per cent for zinc, three per cent for
silver, two per cent for lead, and six
per cent for copper, but decrease OF
20 per cent, or approximately $2,s3O,ooo,
for gold.
The larger part of the decrease in gold
may be credited to Cripple Creek. When
the Portland Gold Mining company's new
Independence cyanidation and ilotation
mill gets to work at its full capacity,
which is about 1000 tons a day, on the
low grade ores of that district, the year
will probably show an improvement IN
the output of Cripple Creek over that
of the first six months, but the high cost
of machinery, zinc, cyanide, and other
chemicals. labor, etc, is becoming vital
point in the operation of the cyanida-
ton and other plants that are treating
Cripple Creek ores. The stoppage OF pro-
duction at the Camp Bird mine, in ouray
county, in August, 1916, until the two
mile adit now being driven shall have
reached veins some $50 feet lower than
the old workings, has naturally caused
decrease in the gold production for that
county. The mills in San Miguel coun-
tv have maintained their usual yield.
Some of the ore treated at the San Mi
guel county mills within the last year
and a half have come from ore bodies
in Ouray county on the extension OF
the San Miguel mines into the Sneffels
district. The San Juan region has prob
ably maintained its output OF 1915 Tor
gold and silver and has probably in
creased its output of copper by reason
of the reopening of the Red mountain
district, which extends into Ouray coun-
tv. The dredges of Summit county have
so far not maintained their usual produc-
ton. but their operations during the
summer will probably bring up the out
put OF the county to its usual record
for the year. Gilpin county and the
Idaho Springs district, Clear Creek coun-
ty. are quiet, but there has been a re-
vival in mining at Silver Plume because
OF the prevailing high prices for sill
yer. lead and zinc. Leadville will prob
ABLY not maintain its record production
of 1916, though the extensive develop
ment and unwatering projects in that
district are beginning to bear fruit and
shipments are being made from the new
ly unwatered ground in the down town,
Carbonate holl, and Fryer hill dis
tricts. Red Cliff, Eagle county, has IN
creased its production, as has also the
Breckenridge district, Summit county,
and there is an increase in activity in the
Kokomo district, Summit county.
TIM increa sed price of copper has re-

vived the old copper properties, particu-
larly in Chaffee Fremont, and Saguache
counties, and also those in the old Pearl
district, Jackson county. The CONSOLE
fation of properties at Creede promises
an increased yield OF silver and lead
from that district, which has not been
very active for many years. Increased
shipments of copper and lead-zinc ores
have been made from Rico Dolores coun-
ty. The silver mines of Boulder county
have been active.
During the calendar year 1916 Colo

7 .632. 900 ounces of silver, T0,35s.000
