Any person famili' y with the process
of canning fruit can put up grape
juice, for the principles involved are
the same. Care should be taken not to
stcriiize the juice at a temperature
higher than 195 degrees T., or the
finished product will have a scorched
taste. The bottles or jars should not
be so large that when they are opened
The juice will spoil before it can be
used.
Unfermented grape juice, properly
made and bottled, Will keep indefinite

or TO infection from mold germs. When
a bottle is once opened, however the
contents, like canned goods generally,
should be used as soon as possible.
Unfermented juice may be made not
only from all varieties of grapes, hut
also from some other fruits, such as
apples, pears and cherries.

Worse Than Poison Gas.

The most celebrated of all weapon
poisons is the "woorari," employed by
the savages Of the Orinoco basin, in
South America. 1t is an elaborate
product. Two species of venomous
serpents contribute to 1t, and third
ingredient Is the juice of vine allied
to the plant from which strychnine is
obtained. To the mixture Is added a
quantity of red ants of kind whose
bite is particularly poisonous. With
this preparation are envenomed the
darts which the natives of that region
fire from blowguns.
The darts are fashioned from the
leafribs of species Of palm. They
are 10 inch long, of the thickness of
crow quill and made sharp as needles
by scraping them between the teeth
Of the ''pirai" fish. A wrapping of wild
cotton fits them to the bore of the gun.

The owner is benefited by any increase
In the value of the property. If there
is any appreciable increase in the
value OF the property, the owner is
likely to feel that he is entitled to in
terest on the actual value Of the prop
erty rather than on the amount of his
original investment. If he does not
receive this increase, his income Is
less than he would receive by selling
the property at the increased figure
and putting this amount out at the
same rate of interest which the rent
is figured on.
Saving In Owning Home.
Is there saving brought about by
owning the home rather than renting
It? The answer to this question in
wolves the good judgment of the owner,
and IL we assume that he Is capable
Of reasonable amount Of discretion
in handling his affairs, adverse in
fluences of serious nature not being
considered, the answer is 'yes."
Money invested in the home does
not pay interest, but it eliminates the
payment of rent. For given pie .e
of property on which the home is built,
the saving Of rent which would be paid
must be greater than the amount of
interest which might be obtained from
the money invested in the home, In
order that financial gain be made.
An increase In the value Of the proper
ty amplifics the saving; decrease in
value reduces the saving or wipes 1t
out. The man who owns his home al
so saves small amount, under normal
conoltions, i'm that his depreciation
charge and expense for repairs Is ac-
,ually less than the average owner
would figure into the rent for these
items. In localities where abnormal
conditions have forced rents down to
figure such that owners are forced to
take low incomes from their property
investments, the savings would not
hold true. Such conditions. however,
cannot usually be considered perma-
nent.
Perhaps the greatest value Of buys
Ing property AMI building home Is In
the creation or an estate. Too many
of us will moi save unless we are
forced 10. This is especially true Of

for Everyone.
GRAPE Juice is Wholesome
One of the Very Best Soft Drinks>for
Your Family and Friends-lt VIII
Keep Indefinitely il Not
Exposed to the Air.

In the face of the sugar shortage
the small grape arbor takes on u new
light. Little sugar for jellies and
jams will make it necessary to turn
most of the surplus grapes into some
other channel. The patriotic grower
will look into the possibilities of home
made grape juice, which is made with
out sugar, and which Is so wholesome
used as a beverage or in desserts of
one kind and another.
Only clean, sound, well ripened, but
not overripe, grapes should be used
These may be crushed and pressed
either by hand or in an ordinary cider
mill. If a light-colored juice is de-
sired, the crushed grapes are put in a
clean, well-washad cloth sack and
either hung up and twisted or grasped
by two persons, one at either end, and
twisted until the greater part Of the
Juice is expressed. Then, i'm double
boiler or its equivalent, such as n
large stone Jar placed in pan of
hot water, so that the juice does not
come in direct contact with the fire,
the juice is gradually heated to
temperature of $50 to 200 degrees +.
The temperature should never be al
lowed to go above 200 degrees II.
T. Heat to Steamins Point.
II is best to use thermometer; If
none is available, however, the juice
may be heated until it steams, but 1t
should not be allowed to boil. 1t
should be poured Immediately into a
glass or enameled vessel and allowed
to settle for "a hours then the juice
should be drained from the sediment
and run through several thicknesses
of clean flannel or through n comic
filter made from wooden cloth or felt
and fixed to hoop of iron, so that 1t
can be suspended wherever necessary.
The juice Is then poured into clean
bottles, space being left at the top for
the liquid to expand when heated.
A good home substitute for a COM
mercial pasteurizer is an ordinary
wash boiler with thin board fitted
over the bottom on which the filled
bottles are set. Ordinary glass fruit
Jars serve the same purpose equally
well. The boiler should he filed with
water To within an inch or so of the
tops of the bottles and heated until
the water begins To simmer. The bot
ties should then be taken out and
sealed or coIked Immediately. Only new
corks that have just been soaked for

the further precaution Of scaling the
corks with parafiin or sealing wax to

Probably there are few people other
than those who have actually made Il
start in the planning of home, who
consider the relation between the
much-discusaed thigh cost of living"
and the question of relative cost be-
tween owning and renting home.
During the strenuous period, the
"bread and butter Garner" will proba-
bly, concentrate his attention SO strenu-
ously upon ways and means of increas-
ing his income that many Of the items
of 'outgo are not given sufficient
analysis. There will probably be an
occasional conference with the good
wife which will result in the substi-
tuition of "oleo" for butter or the elm
ination of the more costly cuts of meat
from the bill of fare-because eating
is such persistent expense that varia-
tons in the cost of rations are en-
phatically noticeable. Various other
temporary savings are rcsorted to, and
that is as far rs the analysis goes.
First, consider the fact, in connec-
ton with the renting of the home, that
the owner of the building is living I'M
der the same conditions as the renter.
lie may, by his manner of living, vary
certain of the conditions which under
another manner of living appear to
place him in position of advantage,
but fundamentally his living expenses
are on the same basis as those Of the
renter. If the owner Of property en-
counters an increase in living eX-
penses, he will naturally expect to
meet it, all or in part, by an increase
in his income from this property.
When property is successfully rented,
the rent must include interest on the
total investment, taxes and all other
assessments levied against the proper
ty, an allowance for depreciation and
an amount equal to the average expen-
diture for repairs and improvements.

MUSCADlNE GRAPES

At present, when food con-
servation and food economy are
being so much emphasized, the
home utilization of Muscadine
grapes is particularly appropri-
ate.
In the past, instead Of being
utilized the surplus fruit has
been allowed to go to waste,
chiefly because of general
lack Of knowledge of ways to
use it and because the high
quality and cheapness Of the
products have not been realized.
For directions for preparing

GAIN IMPORTANT POINT

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, July 19, (By the Associated Press. .)-The German high command will not be pleased with the news that the British captured valuable piece of ground -Meteren-this morning.
 It is a trifle compared with the big events on the French front, but Prince Rupprecht will not underestimate the loss of a position which gives the Bri- tish an observation ground where he might wish to keep his dOings secret. Scottish troops made the assault which extended south to Meteren and in front of Morris. They formed with out the Germans getting a hint Of im- pending troubles and moved forward in full daylight. It was nearly o'clock in the morning and the Germans were down in cellars, with a false sense of security after the dawn lookout The Scots were on them so rapidly after the barrage that they were unable 70 organize a machine gun defense, and most of them seem to have surrender ed easily.
 The Australians with artillery help which opened ahead of them, bounced upon German outposts and in a very short time sent in seventy prisoners to add to the sixty taken in the ruins of Meteren.
