GROUND FROZEN AGES AGO
Scientific Explanations Of Fact Which
Has Puzzled Miners Who Have
Worked IN Alaska.

Miners and biologists familiar with
conditions in Alaska are aware that
In many places the ground In that
country Is permanently frozen, ex-
cept on the surface, to depth OF
200 and even 800 feet. While this has
been popularity attributed to long
continued low temperature In winter,
the interesting theory has recently
been advanced by scientist that the
condition Is due to far colder
weather that obtained In some pre-
vious age, and that protective vegeta-
ton on the surface has kept the frost
in the ground permanently since then
1t has been found that when moss
has been cleared away for open-cut
mining or farming. the upper level
of the grounds frost seemed gradually
to descend. If such is the case, ii may
show that present temperatures are
not low enough to freeze the ground
to the great depths cited above.-Pop

How to Win a Seat.

Here is a tip for Pittsburgh strap
hangers on how to win seat. 1t was
tried with success recently on a Broad
way car by a woman who looked tired
but couldn't induce any of the men
sitters to give her a seat. She looked
around pleadingly, but all those who
had seats were absorbed in their news
papers. The car had gone block or
two when suddenly a voice was heard
singing, 1.-The Star Spangled Banner"
1t was the woman who had just en-
tered the car. Every one arose. Then
the woman edged into seat that had
been occupied by one of the men.
When the woman was seated the song
suddenly ended.-New York Sun.

Canning Without Sugar.

The latest ruling regarding sugar
gives only two pounds per person pei
month and states that no more sugar
can be obtained for canning. This
should not mean that canning cease
Fruits and vegetables must still be
preserved for winter use says the
Home Economics department of the
University of Vermont extension SER
vice.
Vegetables do not need sugar in
canning at any time, so these should
be canned in large quantities. Fruits,
too, may be successfully canned with
out sugar and are satisfactory to use
for pie filling, buildings, sauces, sal
ads, and for fruit punches.
In canning fruits without sugar it
is important to exercise special care.
Only fresh, firm, sound products
should be selected and should be pre-
pared carefully by cleaning, sorting,
stemming, seeding, pairing and coring
as the case requires. All equipment
needed should be ready before starting
and great care should be given to
testing jars and selecting good quail
ity rubbers.
In canning berries, they should be
placed at once after washing, into the
jar, filling it compactly without
crushing the fruit. This can be done
by using a wooden paddle or by
shaking the jar to settle the berries.
Then place the jar in warm water and
pour boiling water over the berries,
instead Of sugar syrup, filling the jar.
Wipe around the mouth of jar care

| in the sterilizer (which in most cases
will be washboiler) and sterilize for
80 minutes, counting the time when
water begins to boil. The water in
the sterilizer should cover jars at
least an inch.
In canning hard fruits, such as
peaches, apricots and apples, the
product is blanched by putting into
actively boiling water from one to
two minutes. It is then dipped into
very cold water for about a minute,
but not allowed to stand in the water.
Finish preparing fruit which, with
peaches and apricots, will be to re-
move skins. Pack in jars and con-
tinue as in case of berries.
After the fruit has been sterilized
for the given length of time, remove
Jars from Gamer and seal completely.
Invert to test for leaks and cool as
quickly as possible, avoiding drafts.
If sweet, canned product is desired,
there are commercial syrups and 9TH
err sugar substitutes which may be
used satisfactorily. The light corn
syrups are most satisfactory in can

ries, pineapples, peaches and rasp-
