FRUIT JUICES TAKE NO SUGAR.
A Way to Save Surplus Products for Use
Next Winter.

Home made fruit juices take no sugar
and may be used during the winter
months in variety of ways, according
TO specialists Of the United States de-
partment Of agriculture. One important
use for fruit juices is in the making of
jellies at time of year when sugar or
its substitutes may be more plentiful
and when it Is more convenient to do the
work. In this way freshly made jellies
may be available all though the winter.
Fruit juice may be pressed out Of fruit
by means of cider press, special fruit
press, or other improyised presses; then
heated in an acid-proof kettle up to Ito
degrees +. The fruit juice may then be
poured into ordinary hot jars, hot bot
ties, or tin cans, and handled by the
same directions as those for canning of
fruit itself. If poured into miscellaneous
bottles, it is suggested that the fruit
Juice be sterilized as follows:
Make cotton stopper and press into
the neck of the bottle and leave during
the sterilization period. Set bottles in
boiling hot water up to the neck of the
bottle, sterilize the fruit juice for 40
minutes at temperature of 1865 degrees
r. Remove the product, press cork in top
over cotton stopper Immediately. If the
cork fits well, no paraffin need be used.
If poor cork, it may be necessary to
dip the cork in melted solution Of wax
or paraffin. Fruit juices and apple cider
when handled in this way will not "fat-
ten in taste" and viii keep fresh for flu.

This morning a flock Of migrating bluebrds
went over, calling down to me- They had come
out of the dawn like little Dreams fading into
the blue about them and beyond them, where q
fleet of great white clouds was drifting slowly
far off to the south But their plalntive voices
floating down to me I still hear calling, with
more pain and yearning than O. human heart,
perhaps should allow itself to know. For, at
the first sip Of such sweet misery, some poet
Chdes:
Why thus longing, thus forever signing
For the far off unattained and dim,
While the beautiful all about US lying,

It lacks an hour Of mail time, and the news

with wings is flying with them, or is poised for
flight
wing hardly larger than the swallows They
stir the grasses Of the knoll and race with them
up the slope, to fly on over the wavy crest, fol-
lowing the bluebirds off toward the deep sea
spaces among the drifting clouds. And the
curving knoll itself is in motion yellow brown
bilIow heaving against the moving clouds where
they ride along the sky.
And over the knoll sweep the hawking swal-
lows, white bellies and brown and glinting steel

Every North Dakotan is just a little
more, interested in what the men from this
state are doing than in any other feature,
of theswar, and that is why we wouldn t
trade our war correspondents for any in
France. That story Of TOstevin's last
