is pressed out the subsequent proce-
dure depends upon whether white or
a red juice is desired. For light
colored juice the crushed grapes are
put into cloth sack and twisted until
the greater part of the juice is extract
ed, one person holding each end of the
sack. The juice is then put in some
convenient form of double boiler, in
which it does not come into direct con-
tact with the fire. but is surrounded by
hot water, and gradually heated to a
temperature close to 200 degrees F.;
however, it should not be allowed to 20
over this point. If no thermometer is
available, it is best to heat the juice
until it Steams and then to take it
from the fire before it is allowed to
boil. 1t should then be poured into a
glass or enameled vessel and allowed
to settle for "a hours, after which it
can be drained from the sediment and
run through some form of cloth filter.
The strained juice is then put into clean
bottles and steriliZed once more in a
water bath. An ordinary wash boiler
with thin board on the bottom for the
filled bottles to rest on is convenient
home device for this purpose After
sterilization the bottles should be cork
ed Immediately with new corks, the
corks having been previously soaked
for about 80 minutes in hot water.
Red juice.-For red juice the crushed
grapes are first heated to the same
temperature as before and then strain
ed through a clean cloth or drip bag
without pressure. Thereafter the pro-
cess is the same as for light-colored
juice.
Grape juice should be stored away

that the government and so many Of
our safe and reactionary old farm
papers have just discovered and are
using to stir them up.
I'll venture the remark that all the
economies that could be achieved by
all the housekeepers in the United

saving, would not amount to as much
as the cost Of the propaganda itself.

government and farm papers who are
aiding and abbeting this passing fad
would save that expense and devote
the same expense to gaining efficiency
in their own particular realms, the
population of the United States and
our European allies would receive more
benefits than they will ever receive
from the advice.

Hon. to Prepare Grapes

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.
The fruit juice may be pressed out Of
fruit by means of a cider press, special
fruit press or other improvised presses,
then heated in an acid-proof kettle up
to 10 degrees F. The fruit juice may
then be poured into ordinary hot jars,
hot bottles, or tin cans and handled by
the same directions as those for can
ming Of fruit itself. If poured into mis-
cellaneous bottles, it is suggested 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 bottles in
boiling hot water up to the neck of the
bottle, sterilize the fruit juice for 40
minutes at a temperature of 165 de-
grees F. Remove the product, press
cork in top over cotton stopper imme-
diately. If the cork fits well, no paraf-
fin need be used. If poor cork, it may
be necessary to dip the cork in melt
ed solution of wax or paraffin. Fruit
juices and apple cider when handled
in this way will not ''flatten in taste"
and will keep fresh for future use.
For home use there are large num-
ber Of varieties of grapes which will
make a pleasant and healthful drink.
No matter what the kind of grape,
however, only clean, sound fruit should
be used, and it should be well ripened,
but not overripe. The grapes should
first be crushed and pressed in an or
dinary cider mill, or by hcrd If no mill
is available. 80

By the way, there are no garbage

No, there are no garbage cans, but the

WHY NOT VISIT
SOME FARM HOMES
1t would be a great help to some of
these government farm writers to come
out and visit some farms. They would
see how far they miss the mark. Thev
would learn why women just read the
headlines, and then sit down and give
the editors good round tongue LASH
ing. They would learn why so many
women never read the farm women's
pages at all.
One of my neighbors the other day
made the shrewd remark, after had
shown her one of the inspired articles,
81 don't know of anyone who has a
better right to eat what is raised on
the farm than the people who raise it."
And another said at the ladies' aid
meeting, where the talk trned to con-
servation Of food and such things:
"About all we do get out of the farm,
is what we eat up, and now they want
us to cut out part Of that by telling us
to cheat the pigs and chickens out Of
the scraps and eat them ourselves
so there will be more of the first class
food to pass over to Others"

"One of the best feed and fertilizer
crops our farmers can grow Is velvet

The yields Of this crop are enor-

hesitated-"your bonlta-the pretty

Since the recent rain had rendered
the black valley roads impossible for
automobiles, Dave decided to go to
Pueblo by rail, even though 1t was n
roundabout way, and that afternoon
found him jolting over the leisurely
miles between Jonesvllle and the main
line. He was looking forward to u
good nights sleep when he arrived at
the junction; but on boarding the
north-bound through train he encoun-
tered Judge Ellsworth, who had just
heard of the Cara killing, and OF
course was eager for details. The two
men sat in the observation car talking
until late hour.
Knowing the judge for q man OF
honor and discretion, Dave unburdened
himself with the utmost freedom re-
garding his suspicious Of Ed Austin.
Ellsworth nodded. "Yes, Ed has
thrown in with the rebel junta in San
Antoine, and Tad Lewis Is the man they
use to run arms and supplies in this
eighbOrhood. That's why he and Ed
are so friendly. Urbina is probably
your cattle thief, but he has a hold
over Ed, and so he rode to Las Palmas
when he was pursued knowing that no
jury would convict him over Ed Aug
tins testimony"
"Dc you think Ed would perjure
himself?" Dave asked.
"He has gone clean to the bad late
ly; there's no telling what he'll do. I'd
hate to see you crowd him, Dave"
"They call you the best lawyer in
this county because you settle so many
cases out Of court" The judge smiled
at this. "Well, here's chance for you
to do the county good turn and keep
