Working Grapes Into the Menu

Fruit cups, canapes and salads con-
tanning grapes may be prepared without
calling on the sugarbowl
For an appetizing canape combine
seeded Malaga grapes, shredded fresh
pineapple, minced green pepper and
mayonnaise and serve on thin slices of
toasted bread. Grapes are marked adj
dition to fruit cups. The Malagas and
"'okays are the most desirable for fruit
cups, eanapes and salads as we'll, because
they are very easily seeded or skinned
without breaking them or spelling their
form. Seeded Malaga or Tokay grapes
with pineapple and orange juice is one
delicious combination for fruit cup. An
other is seeded grapes, sliced oranges
and grapefruit with grape juice.

Serving and Saving Grapes in Their Own

@NRAPES are the least "cookable" of
j any of the fruits, so it is time for
the Gamer and the preserving
kettle to rally for the last big campaign
Of the year, and to make jelly, jam and
grape juice as busily as they salvaged
the peas in June. 1t is the home-stretch
Of the canning race-and since prohibi
ton wins grape and orange juice and
lemonade will be the drinks of the nation.
Some conscientious souls have won
cered how much sugar they ought to use
for preserving. Much depends on your
family, their needs and how cheaply you
can get the raw materials. But sugar
that preserves fruits and lays by sugar
and butter saving food for winter is we'll
used. Make fruit juices without any
sugar, and use less than usual for the
jams and jellies-pound for pound isn't
necessary--and always onc-third to one
fourth even of the reduced amount can
be substituted for by corn syrup"
Make the sugar go as far as possible.
Do not make heavy conserves or fancy
company preserves" You have a right
to your twenty-five pounds of sugar for
preserving if you make it go as far as
possible

AWFUL DISASTER
Thirty-seven Burned to Death When
British and American Vessels Col
lided Off British Coast.

AN ATLANTIC PORT, April IL
Thirty seven lives were lost when the
American steamship o. B. Jennings and
the British steamer War Knight, both
laden with naphtha and other oils, col
lded off the British coast on March "a,
according to members of the crew of the
o. B. Jennings who arrived here today.
All who perished, with one exception,
were on the British vessel. They were
burned to death by blazing gas and oil.
Those who survived the flames on the
War Knight were rescued in the nick
Of time by destroyers. Soon after,
while the blazing hull was being towed
toward shallow waters, it struck mine
and was blown up.

FIRE DESTROYS
ZEPPELIN WORKS
Huge Plant with Two Zeppelins and 40
Airplanes Swept by Fire-Quan-
titles of Material Lost.

GENEVA, April T-Enormous loss was
caused by the fire which broke out Sat
urday in the Zeppelin works at Manzel,
near Friedrichshaten, and destroyed the
plant, which had been transformed for
the manufacture of airplanes of the Gotha
type, according to reliable reports from
Horseback on Lake Constance.
Vast quantities of raw materials were
burned, and it is reported at Constance
that two large Zeppelns and 40 airplanes
also were destroyed, comprising the whole
fleet then at the plant.
Many warehouses were reduced to ashes,
as also were the offices OF the plant, sit
uated close to the workshop. The mum
her OF victims were considerable but as
the military authorities are preventing
anyone from approaching the scene of the
fire the number of killed and injured can
not be learned at present.
The fire broke out between 10 and Il
o'clock Saturday and burned all day Sun
day, according to two Swiss travellers
who were in Friedrichshafen Sunday TIL,
fire began with an explosion and there
were frequent explosions throughout Sat
urday night and the following day, ap

Points Out Mistakes Made
Last Year-Speaks in
High School
GARDEN SHOULD BE
PLOTTED ON PAPER
Advocates Hot-beds and Cold frames
Beans and Root Crops Should Be
Raised This Year-Address Illustrat-
ed With Pictures.

Allen p Beach of the Vermont agricul-
tural extension service, who has had
large experience in gardening for summer
hotels. gave an illustrated talk last
evening in the high school building
during which he discussed many of the
problems of interest to the amateur
gardener His audience was composed al
most entirely of school teachers, with a
few school pupils and few who were
not connected with the schools.
He said that those who made the great
est mistake last year were those who did
not have gardens Some others made the
mistake of planting the wrong varieties
or at the wrong time and that many had
tried to garden on land that no expe-
rienced market gardener would have con-
sidered for minute In these ways mil
lions of dollars had been lost and the
mistakes should not be repeated.
He advocated the plotting of garden
on paper, saying that the greatest sport
| in gardening is planting it on paper, for
there are no limitations as to quantity
and the garden can be expanded regard
less of territorial limits.
| First should be determined what to
plant. where to plant it and how much
of each variety Adam, it has been said,
was placed in a garden because from the
| things that grew there he could learn
everything of life there was to learn.
| Mr.. Beach is a staunch advocate of hot
beds and cold-frames and especially urged
that each gardener should have a cold
frame, for the cold-frames give oppor-
tunity for the advancing of the produc-
ing season several weeks and consequent
satisfaction. and, if the produce is mar
keted, greater prices than for the same
articles which are raised when the mar
kets are ghtted with them.
He discussed at some length the need
of care in transplanting from the cold
frames to the garden, pointing out the
necessity of reducing the water supply
before SO doing in order to strengthen and
harden the stalks; the gradual accustom-
ing of the plants in the frames to lower
temperature; pudding the roots well
when transplanting; the removal of some
of the foliage, tirming of the soil and eul-
tivation.
He told his auditors that proper grad
ing, packing and marketing of vegetables
and fruits would mean large increase in
profits to them and showed numerous
slides illustrating proper methods of
grading and packing.
He said that the immi grants who have
come to our shores and taken over aban-
doned farms III nearby states, that had
been allowed to run down by the owner
can teach important lessons in the art of
gardening both for home consumption
and for the market. BY their industry
and knowledge of the proper rotation OF
, crops ard intensive methods of growing
vegetables they have been successful
where the former owners could not make
, a living.
Beans and root crops are the great es
sentials to be raised this year because
they can be carried over to help out in
the wl.ter. He answered numerous aues
tions at the conclusion of his talk.
