MAXIMUM
Preservation of Fruit With
MINiM UM
Sugar.
MAXIM M

The sugar shortage is one of the in.
conveniences of the war. 1t Is not q
tragedy. A little consideration and
resourcefulness will quickly help to
lessen the inconvenience.
Housewives who have been accus.
toned to preserving fruits with quan.
titles Of sugar should not view the
present sugar shortage as death
knell to their plans for conserving the
fruit surplus. It is important that
these fruits be saved for winter use.

titles of sugar should not view the
present sugar shortage as a death
knell to their plans for conserving the
fruit surplus. It Is important that
these fruits be saved for winter use.
Sugar is desirable in preserving
fruit, but it is not necessary to ith sue
cess. There are three things which
the housewife should do to help In the
sugar conservation program:
/. Preserve a part of the fruit by
methods requiring no sugar.
2. Preserve part of the fruit with
a greatly reduced supply of sugar.
3. Preserve a part of the fruit by
replacing some of the sugar ordinar-
lily used with other sweeteners.
When canning without sugar fruits
may be put up by the usual methods,
using for the liquid, water alone in
stead Of sirup.
,Unsweetened fruit juice may be
used in place Of sirup.
Unsweetened fruit juice may be-
concentrated to thin sirup and
used in place Of sugar.
Fruit may be canned with one-han
or one-fourth the usual amount Of SD.
gar. The sweetness Of the sirup in
which fruits are canned may be re-
duced
In making jams, marmalades and
buffers, reduce the volume Of fruit
pulp one-third to one-half by boiling,
then measure and add only one-half
sugar by weight instead Of the Gus
tomary three-fourths.
Other sweeteners may be used in
atoad of Sup9r
Honey-If honey is obtainable it
may be used weight for wei hit to re-
place part or all OF the sugar in any
given recipe except in jelly making.
Three-fourths Of a cup Of honey
weighs about as much as cup Of
sugar.
Molasses-Mclasses may be used 90
q substitute for sugar with such strong
favored fruits 40 plums and cranber-
ries. The flavor Of molasses remains
prominent.
Sorghum-All grain sirups are like
molasses, giving a decided flavor to
the product.
Glucose or Corn sirup-These sirups
may be used to replace three-fourths
Of the sugar by weight in any g-yen
recipe except jelly making. Three
sourths Of a cap OF these sirups
weighs about as much as a cup OF
sugar. Sugar is I 1-2 to times as
sweet as these sirups.

GAS to the Chinese people here, they
are getting on very well. The Chi
nese merchants have virtual control
of the domestic trade of the Philip
pines. There are many Chinese mil
lionaires here, big in. .porters and ex-
portcrs and owners of inter-island
steamers. Some of the Chimes firms
do a business of several millions an
nually. But their business methods
are antiquated, and they have not as
yet any big corporations. And they
have no bank either. If they don't
wake up and adopt modern methods in
their business, there is a danger that
in the long run they will lose out to
American and native competitors.
What is particularly surprising to
me is that although they have many
firms calling themselves importers
doing Il direct importaing and export
ing business with America, whence
most of the goods they retail are i'm.
ported. | have been calling the atten-
ton of some of them to this fact, and
they recognize the necessity Of or
ganiZing such an import and export
house all right, but the fact is they
don thave the right men with the
training and qualifications to do this
line of business. That is why our mcr-
chants here arc merely Intermediates.
| think that if we arc so inclined we
have an opening here to enter the
business field by helping them to or
ganize such a company. They can cas-
lily raise the necessary capital and al
so secure the business, which, con-
estimated, will amount to
several million dollars.

DAIRY COWS ON EVERY FARM
That is Department of Agriculture's
Recommendation for Southern
Territory

TO have dairy cows as a part of the
equipment on every farm, enabling
tenants to become self-supporting
throughout the year and at the same
time maintain desirable soil condi-
tions, is plan recommended by the
Bureau of Animal Industry, United
States Department of Agriculture,
among the landowners of the South.
The plan is accompanied with an ac-
tive campaign for feed production; as
a result a marked increase in the
acreage Of legumcs, particularly vel
vet beans and peanuts, has been
shown.
Every effort is being made by field
men Of the department to aid in bring
ing in a sufficient supply of good
cows in the minds of tne farmers. The
readiness of bankers to help finance
the purchase of dairy cattle is an in
dication Of how we'll established the
industry has become through coopc
crativc and State work.

RED CROSS IN FRANCE
WORKS FAST

The degree of organization of the
American Red Cross abroad, and the
speed with which it can formulate ant
execute plans, is shown in it's recent
achievement Of equipping hospital
and organizing it's staff within two
weeks after the hospital property was
placed at its disposal.
The new link in the chain of institu.
tions which the American Red Cross is
forging to regain for France the
health of her citizens is the Saintc
Eugene Hospital, at Lyons, for tuber.
culosis repatriates.
A cable dispatch from Paris head
quarters of the American Red Cross
announcing. the opening of the hos
pital, said in part.
"Sainte Eugene is lent to the
American Red Cross by the Hospital
Board Of Lyons, which supplies the
building with heat, light, water and
sanitation without cost to the Red
Cross, and with food, linen and disin-
fection at cost. The American Red
Cross provides the nurses and doctors
and hospital supplies.
often as many as 65 tuberculosis
repatriatcs arrive at Evian in one
week, coming from occupied France
and Belgium. Returning to their
homes, they have spread infection

barracks and in the main building"

PATRIOTISM
AMONG "WILD MEM

How the Liberty Loan campaign
knocked at the door Of "wild men" in
remote mountain regions of the Phil
iDpine Islands and found patriotism
there is one of the most interesting
and significant stories told in connec,
ton with the recent drive. 1t only
needs little imagination to picture
the three Bcnguet Igorots, heroes of
the story, toiling with pickaxe and
shovel to remove from the earth, their
only trusted banking house, sacks of
old Spanish and Mexican coins ac-
quired by hook or crook in the older
days of Spanish rule, when mystery
and romance were little more plen-
tifdl in the islands. And then the pic
turcsquc procession, making its way
over mountain trails, finally confiding
their treasure to the hands of Cover
nor Hilario Logan with the request
that it be sent for "theuse of the
Apo across the seas!"
This was surely most significant
contribution, coming as it did from an
aboriginal people that not so long ago
rcbelled against government Of any
sort, that despised the uses Of modern
civilization, and looked askance at the
motives Of foreigners. True, in COM
parison with the amount contributed
by Baguio, and the total amount from
the Philippines, the fifteen thousand
pesos contributed by the three "wild
men" was not especially noteworthy;
but as an indication of their loyalty
to "the great chief across the seas"
it speaks we'll for the success of
American rule in the Philippjnes.

SEES TRADE POSSIBILITIES
IN THE PHILIPPINES

The following letter comes to Chi
ncsc resident in New York from a
widely travelled Chinese now visiting
the Philippine Islands after a pro
tractcd stay in the United States. His
views are very interesting and i'm
portant, coming from such source as
they do.
The letter reads:
zone good thing about Manila is
that it has pretty good roads. There
seem to be more automobiles here
them in any other city in the Orient
including Shanghai fact that makes
you feel that you are somewhere in
America. But side by side with the
automobile is the slow moving native
cart drawn by watcr-buffalo or
carabao, us they cali the beast here
A carabao cart moves along through
the streets Of Manila at the unhcard-
OF speed of about Il n,ilc an hour. And
they are satisfied with the speed.
Some sleepy country, isn't it?s
"Thc dress of the Filipna belle is
quite interesting. She wears a sort of
stiff. ovcrspreadng shawl over her
shoulders, and often goes out in her
bedroom slippers. Slippers seem to be
the most common footwear in the
PhllIppncs. <"
"Sincc arriving here | have had the
opportunity to meet some of the most
prominent local pcrsonagcs, including
the Governors General of the Phil
ippincs, the Speaker Of the Philippine
House of Representatives, the prcsi-
dent of the University Of the Philip
pines, and some Of the Filipino Off
cials. One thing that impressed me
deeply the extent to which the Eli
ipinos are given the privileges and
powers of sclf-governm ment. --
American officials are being rapidly
replaced by natives, and this process
or FlllplnlZatlon is so rapid that with
III few years there won't be hand
ful Of American officials left. So YOU
see, the Filipinos are enjoying prac-
tlcally self government. 1t is certain
that they will have full independence
under American protection within the
great future. But the Filipincs are not
so very anxious now to get complete
independence without American pro-
lection, since they have practically
secured what they mad demanded. An
other reason for this change of atti-
tude is because of their fear of Jap
anese aggression. Most Of the upper
class Filipinos with whom have con
versed hold the same opinion that ia
pan is a menace to the Philippines,
and some Of their publicists are warn
ing the people of the coming Japan
csc Peril
"Another thing to which my attcn-
ton has been called is the fact that
many of the natives have Chinese
blood in their veins. Chinese names
are very common among them. l am
told that some of the natives born of
Chinese parcntage have become en-

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR
VETERIN ARIANS

Manila, p. LIN order to supply
the great need of veterinary sur
gcons in the Philippine Islands, Di-
rector Hernandez Of the bureau of ag-
riculture has pettioned the Philippine
legislature for grant of $12,5O0 to
found fifty scholarships. Mr.. Her
nandeZ, in presenting his rccommen-
dation, laid stress on the fact that the
islands are not at present in position
to combat the frequent outcropping
OF rindcrpest, and said he felt that
free scholarships would stimulate in
tercst among young Filipino students
in this profession.

FILIPINO DONATES SCHOOL

Manila, p. I.-If there were more
public-spiritcd citizens such as Mr..
Filcmon Lcgaspi Of the barrio of Ag-
balo, Municipality of Panay, Capiz,
says the Cablcncws American, there
would be little need to ask for add.
tional legislation for schools. Mr.. Lc-
gaspi has donated school site, has
constructed and completely furnished
a schoolhouse and has deposited with
the municipal treasurer sufficient
amount of money for the payment of
a teachers salary for one year. Such
action on the part Of this public-spir-
tied man is excellent evidence of the
interest OF progressive men in the
Philippines in the spread Of education.
