mittees went to work today to pile
up subscriptions in every community
that had failed so far to reach its
quota New England lacked yester-
day $41, 100000 of it's quota.
Maine and New Hampshire have
exceeded their quotas, and while the
Vermont committee has laid claim to
the honor of being the first New Eng
land state to raise more than was ex-
pected, its completed subscriptions
had not been forwarded to the fed
era1 reserve bank here last night.
There was great activity yesterday in
Connecticut, whose percentage was
94.5, and in Massachusetts, and Rhode
Island, each of which had obtained 80
per cent of it's allotment.

This may be the beginning.
The Neuste Nachrichten of Munich
Bavaria, on April 27, said the Pope
would make a peace offer as soon a.
the western offensive had assumed {
new phase. The Bavarian newspaper
said the appeal would take the form
of "a word of warning addressed tt
the universal conscience"
In commenting upon the visit O.
! Prince Sixtus to King A1phonso, >tht
leading Spanish newspaper, Madrit
Sol, says THE Prince was accom-
panied by his brother Prince Xaviea
and it is understood that he gave t.

How We Can Stretch Tie Sss,r SuPply

! !. Dry fruits in large quantities.
2. Can fruits and fruit juices with
out sugar. This may be successfully
done by the Cold Pack Method.
They will keep as we'll or better.
Less storage space is necessary.
They may be made into sauces. jelly
or syrups as needed. .=
8. Use the minimum amount of
sweetening for fruits. Cultivate "a
taste for the natural fruit flavor. The
fruit acids are especially important in
the diet.
4. Limit the amounts of jelly and
preserves. These should be limited to
the needs of invslids and children.
These may be made as needed from
unsweetened, canned fruits and juices.
Use the least possible amount Of sugar
of syrup in making these. See proper
lions given later.
.o5s to corn syrup may be used with
sugar.
5. Use raw fruits without sugar
Fresh, ripe fruits may be enjoyed at
table without sugar just as when eaten
in orchard or garden.
6. Use less sugar with little salt
for jam and marmalade. When made
in this way the product should stand
FIVE or six days before using. The salt
taste disappears in this time. For pre-
serves and jams the following proper
lions give satisfactory results. Use
the richer syrup with the more acid
fruits.
cup sugar cup corn syrup pound
of fruit. ..
cup sugar J cup corn syrup pound
of fruit. .@
cup sugar J tablespoonful pound
of fruit.
When salt is used, crush fruit or sim
mer until soft without water, add sugar |
and salt together and cook as usual. |
Ordinary table salt is used. "
Sugar "goes farther" when added to
hot fruits or made into syrup before
adding. 3-5 cups corn syrup is equal
in sweetening power to cup sugar.
