COUNSEL FOR HOUSEWIVES
STERILIZATION IMPORTANT TO
SUCCESS OF IMPROVED
METHODS GIVEN.

Greater economy in the use Of sugar
for canning fruits is urged by the fed
eral food administration for Arizona.
The following suggestions are given
by Mrs. Mary Primer lockwood. homo

80 pounds apples. 20 Qts. sea lbs.
80 pounds peaches. .18 OTIS. IS lbs.
80 pounds pears -. 80 OTIS. 5. lbs.
So pounds plums -. 80 OTIS. SIS lbs.
To each quart Of products use six
to eight level tablespoonful Of sugar;
sour fruit, such AZ plums, 10 spoons.
Thirty-two level tablespoonful Of
sugar equal one pound; two cups Of
sugar equal one pound.
In making jams use about one-haK
pound of sugar to one pound Of pro-
duct. For jellies from one-half to
three quarters of q cup Of sugar will
be required to one cup of juice. The
same proportion obtains for marina
ladies' and preserves.
Our present shortage Of sugar
need not interfere with the fruit
saving campaign. Many Ari-
IONA housewives are following
the directions of the Department
of Agriculture in canning fruits with
out sugar.
Have Jars, jar covers and rubbers
tested and sterilixed.
If the cold pack method is followed
proceed as when sugar IL used. When
the fruit is packed in the jar fill the
jar with boiling hot water. Continue
the processing as when sugar IL used.
If the open kettle method is fol-
lowed place the fruit In q preserving
kettle with enough water to prevent
scorching. Simmer gently until the
fruit is tender. Fill jars and seal.
Fruit canned without sugar IL ex-
cellent for pie filings. buildings, Ices,
sauces, salads and fruit punches.
In canning fruit juices without su-
gar the following method should be
employed:
Any approved fruit Jar or empty bot
ties will serve as containers. Be sure
they are thoroughly cleaned and ster-
ilized before filling. Proceed as In the

FRENCH ADVANCE
Hun Line Bends As FOch Troops
Counter Attack-Enemy Driven
Back Of Hailles, In Amiens
ReglOn-Heayy Artillery
Continues Activity
Along All Fronts.

| New York, May 15--Still another
day has passed without the Germans
renewing their offensive in Flanders
or Picardy. Nowhere have the in
fantry operations by either side on
these battle fronts, or, for that matter
in any of the numerous theaters Of
war, risen in Importance above patrol
engagements.
North Of KENNEL, where the Ger
mans on Tuesday gained footing on
Hill A, one of the bloodiest sectors
on the western front, the lost vantage
points have been retrieved through
the persistent counter attacks of the
French, who succeeded in expelling
the enemy from the shell holes along
the slopes to which he had been ten
aciously holding. Not alone were the
Germans forced to recede, but the
French advanced their line and also
took prisoners.
Likewise south of Hailles, in the
Amiens region, the French have taken
another bite into the German line and
successfully warded off German
counter attack launched in an endeav-
or to recapture the lost ground.
The Germans in these maneuvers
suffered heavy casualties and also lost
men made prisoners. Throughout
Wednesday the British were left Sc
verely alone by the German infantry
American aviators on the battle
front in the Toul sector are continu-
ing to perform notable deeds of BRAY
cry in the air against the enemy fliers.
Wednesday witnessed three addition
al planes in this region brought to
earth by American aifmen all of
them having been shot down. The
French, in recognition of the bravery
of the Americans in areial combats,
decorated five of them with the
French war cross.
London, May 15-(via Ottawa)-
Much local enemy artillery activity is
reported on various parts of the Brit
ish battle front in France. During
the night gas shelling in the Fland-
ers and Somme areas was accompan-
led by harassing fire against the line
from Newar to Willie, near Dicke-
busch Lake, around Hinges at St.
Laurent-Blangy and against Villers-
Bretonneux, Corbie and avux-Sur-

Ruggles Camp Grounds July 4, wrote
Hon. Edwin p. Morrow extending an
invitation to be present and deliver

ing crops be deferred in the call. Ev.
eryone will be called by their order

l. During the five days period be-
ginning May 25th, 1918. this state will
furnish 6311 white men to report tc
Commanding officers, Camp Taylor,
Kentucky. This is the final call of
white men under the second quota
that has been set for this State. The
gross quota for the State was Nine
teen Thousand nine hundred six men
and we had credits for enlistments
that were deducted from this number
which was six thousand four hundred
and twenty-three, leaving a net quota
for the State of thirteen thousand
I. four hundred eighty-three. We have
furnished in our new quota five thou
sand one hundred thirty-seven men,
leaving approximately six thousand
three hundred eleven white men,

white men in the second quota and
therefore no local board will defer the
call of registrants whose order num-
ber is within this quota on account of
being engaged in the cultivation of
crop as provided in Bulletin No. GA.
No registrant can be deferred in this
call under any consideration.
The quota for Mason county during
the period beginning May 25 is so and
the call is IA.
The men in the seiective list will be
called according to their order num-
Der and will not be deferred for any
reason or under any consideration.
