Apple Syrup.

Apple syrup, a delicious sugar suhsti-
tute, and easily made from sweet cider, is
advocated by the United States food adj
ministration. For those who have plenty
of cider it is well worth trying. The di-
rections given are as follows: Stir into
seven gallons of sweet cider five ounces
.of powdered calcium carbonate--a harm.
less, iow-priced chemical boil in a
large kettle five minutes. If large YES
sci is not available the cider may be
boiled i'll patches. After boiling, pour 1t
into glass jars and allow it to settle un-
til perfectly clear, which requires about
seven hours. Return the clear liquid to
the preserving kettle, being careful not
to pour off any of the sediment Fill the
vessel only about half full, as it foams
up when boiling. Add level teaspoonful
of the calcium carbonate for the seven
gallons of liquid and boil rapidly until a
temperature of 220 degrees is reached, or
until it is about one-seventh OF the origi-
nal volume and the consistency of maple
strip when cooled rapidly and poured
from a spoon.
TO insure clear sirup the cooling must
be done slowly \ good way is TO set the
Jars of sirup in a wash-boier of hot water
| and allow the whole to cool. Use this
sirup like any other table sirup, and as
"A flavoring adjunct. Also as sauce for pud
dings and for making brown bread, fruit
cake, and candy.

Church Unity.
Rutland News

Vermont is moving steadily, albeit
slowly, in the direction Of church
consolidation. In the past II months
there have been % unions or FEEDER
ations All considerations of eco1-
omy and efficiency dictate consolde-
ton of religious activities in COM
munty. Were there onc-half or ono
third of the church organizations IA
Vermont that there are their work
would be more rcsultful doubtless.
Federation of organizations. differing
only in non essentials of policy or in
terprctations, would release much real
estate sequestered, would provide pas
tors of greater power and influence,
would reduce expense. Creed and de-
nominational lines happily are being
obliteratcd The living church, the
living Christianity is more and more
regarded as the only thing essential.
The numerous lily supported, sparsely-
attended churches are not consonant
with these times of concentration of
effort and consequent greater efficien-
cv. May the federation efforts con
tinue to their fullest fruition

In this work they seem to have

The Brattleboro young man who
went west to grow up with the country
and TO have chance to expand might
have done better had he stayed in Yer
mont A high-hying clerk in his Office
in Chicago has just robbed him OF
nearly $4,000. Perhaps fortunes don t
grow over night in Vermont, but often
times it is safer to make haste slowly.
At any rate Vermont towns are more
Gbd- fearing and law abiding as rule
than the big cities and the business
man of average care is not robbed of
his eye teeth. Then, too, it would be
impossible to steal $4,000 from many
concerns in this state.
