FRUIT JUICES
TAKE NO SUGAR

Homemade fruit juices take no
sugar and may be used during the
winter. months in a variety of ways,
according to the specialists Of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. One important use for fruit
Juices is the making of jellies at a
time of year when sugar or its SUBJ
stitutes may be more plentiful and
when it is more convenient to do the
work. In this way fresh-made jellies
may be available all through the win
ter.
Fruit Juice may be pressed out Of
fruit by means of a cider press, special
fruit press, or other improvised press
es; then heated in an a~cid-proof ket-
tie up to 10 degrees F. The fruit
Juice may then be poured into ordi-
nary hat Jars, hot bottles or tin cans,
and handled by the same directions
as those for canning Of fruit itself.
If poured into miscellaneous 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 1865 F. Remove the product, press
cork in top over cotton stopper i'm
mediately. II the cork fits>well, no
paraffin need be used. If a poor
cork, it may be necessary to dip the
cork in a melted 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. ,

Universally Needed Food

The war has taught us many things
about food. It has taught us we can
substitute corn, barley, rice, and other
cereals. for wheat without any injury
to our health. It has taught us we can
substitute milk, cheese, nuts and eggs
for meat. and sirups for sugar.
But there is n food for which
neither this war nor any wars will
eve teach US to use a substitute. This
universal necessity for children. It
contains all the necessary food ele-
ments and there is no, substitute for It.
It is, in fact. the one food which is
called perfect"
Unfortunately, however. milk is
often considered only a beverage, in
stead of a highly nourishing food. For
this reason, when the price of milk
goes up a ent or two, many house,
wives reduce their milk order.
But this is not true. economy, for
milk at any price is the cheapest ami
NAL food. Twenty-Five cents worth of
1t will give more energy than twenty
five cents worth of meat, eggs or fish.

food of differentiated one can get for

twelve cents a quart one gets as much

Some one may. ask, IT milk is a
perfect food. why can It not form a
meal by itself? ;"
This ia q pertinent question. The
answer is that milk is seven-eighths
water and hence. is so diluted that al
adult would have to drink quarts every
day in order to get enough energy
from 1t. Milk should be used in COM
bination with more concentrated foods
for producing energy in order to have
a we'll balanced meal. No. IS
Children and invalids should have
plenty of milk. Germany has been one
of the first to recognize the absolute
necessity of this, and in spite Of her
milk shortage, she has maintained at
all hazards the full milk ration for
German children and for the German

Of course, guard against waste.
The flush season, when the COWS are
on the grass Is now on. This may not
mean a sharp drop in the price of
milk, as some might expect, for labor
and cattle feed have been high all
winter and the dairyman has had his
overhead expenses increased enor-

But the intelligent housewife will

NEGOTIATIONS
FiOl!R]PEACE ARE
VERY DIFFICULT
Men Who Conduct Negotia-
tons Have Unpleasant
4. Time.

London, July 16.-(By the Associat-'
ed Press Correspondent recently in
Rumania)-The business Of making
peace with Germany is not q pleasant
n for, the persons who have to con-
duct the negotiations. The Rumanian
delegates who went down from Jassy
in March at the invitation of the Ger
mans found no warm welcome or
pleasant, hospitality, awaiting them at
Bucharest. I'VE were treated as less
than the dust" said one of the dele
gates in picturesque Rumanian meta
phor, on his return to Jassy.
These 9 merely the preliminary
and informal negotiations. The for
NAL parleys did not begin until some
days later, The delegation which UNI
dertook. these preliminary CONVERSE
tons was headed by M. Papiniu, for
mer Rumanian minister at Constants
nople, and his associates included rep
resentatives Of the principal political
parties. 81
/, Although they had comet to BuchAr-
est at the personal invitation Of the
German commander-in-chief, Field
Marshal Won Mackensen could give
them only v eLnninutes Of his time.
He kept them standing and treated
them with deliberate GOODNESS. His at
titude was summed up by his declara-
ton: you ought to be glad that we
are prepared'to discuss peace with you
at all. instead of merely imposing it
upon you. We extend you this favor
only out of consideration for the he
roic resistance of your army"
At the end of the five minutes which
Won Mackensen allotted the delegates.
they were turned over to some sub
ordinate officer, who discussed with
them whether the %abdication of the
king ought to be included in the peace
terms. Only the most indefinite pro-
posals could be obtained, from the
German officers. and it was plain from
Won Mackensen's conversation that he
hadHvery limited powers in these mat
ters.
Neither on territorial questions nor
regarding the disqualification Of the
Ruh!anian army could he speak def
nitely, n 1t was stated that onver-
sations with German political. per-
sonages" would be- necessary to de-
eide these subjects.
1t was very evident to the Ruman-
ian delegates that these preliminary
conversations had been asked for by
Won Mackensen merely with a view to
bull-dozing - and b~row-beating Ru-
mania. The field marshal. in a speech
full of braggadocio, said that his army
was fully prepared for: business, and
that unless an immediate understand.

hand, if Rumania yielded quietly, he
promised that his troops would be
withdrawn and sent to another front
He inquired specifically as to the
whereabouts of the French. British
and American missions to Rumania
and 1t appeared to the delegates tina,
he hoped to be able somehow to bae
these missions and make them prison,
