RECALLS DEUTSCHLAND'S
 STAY AT NEW LONDON

Federal officials in the state and many private citizens of Norwich will be interested in the story that comes from overseas that a German suhna- rine which was among the U-boats surrendered by the Germans Saturday was the famous merchant submersi- ble which made two trips 70 this coun- try bringing cargoes of dyestuffs and chemicals and carrying back rubber.
 Under the command of Captain Paul Koenig the Deutschland remained at her dock il New London for three weeks two years ago. Many Norwich parties went down to try to see her and federal officers also made official trips there to serve papers as the com pany which operated the underseas boat became involved in litigation, es pecially after the Deutschanl ran into her tug and sank t causing the loss of i've lives while proceeding out of the harbor.
 Deputy United States Marshal Tim othy F. HawIey was one Of the Hart ford officers who made the official trip to the Deutschland nd after his err rand was accomplished he was taken aboard the submarine and shown through it even to the engine room. Marshal Hawley brought home some | u,
 In the past two years many tales have been heard that the Deutschland had been sunk, been captured or had been dismantled in Germany. Ore story had Captain Koenig in an Eng fish iail but the news from abroad since the armistice has not located him
 On July g, 1916, the Deutschland ar- rived at Baltimore from Germany and the successful completion of the first transatlantic voyage by submarine attracted worldwide attention. As soon as her arrivel became known, French and British warships were sent to pa trol the waters outside the Virginia capes. Captain Paul Koenig, who com manded the Deutschland, made no se- cret of his intention to make return trip He obtained clearance papers for a cargo, mainly of rubber and nickel. and on the evening of Aug 1 the yes sel left her berth at Baltimore and started seaward. She submerged well inside the three mile limit and made her way under the blockade of British and French ships at night. She ar rived at Bremen about IT days later. in spite of an intense search for her by British ships when she was expect ed to pass through the North sea. On Nov. in the same year the Deutschland arrived in America again. this time at New London, carrying a carg made up mainly of costly chem icals valued at more than SIC, 900, GOO. and quantities of mail for the German ambassador.

 The fact that. the Deutschland was listed as a cruiser may indicate that Germany decided it was unprofitable to. use undersea boats for trading and transformed the Deutschland into d raider.
 * When the Deutschland surrendered she carried two American officers who had been rescued from the American army cargo ship Ticonderoga, torpe- doed on Sept 30 last, says The Asso- ciated Press. The officers were taken to Kiel by the Deutschland, which was returning from three months cruise.

CANNING FRUITS
WITHOUT SUGAR

Fruit of any kind suitable for can
ming may be preserved without any
sugar. When the fruit is consumed
the sugar can be added exactly as is
done with fresh fruit. If the fruit
when canned is thoroughly ripe it may
be consumed without this addition of
sugar and is sweet enough for many
tastes.
The ordinary methods of home can
ming are used. These are the "cold
pack and hot pack" methods.
For the former the fruit is washed,
peeled, pitted or cored as needed and
packed tight in clean, scalded cans or
jars. Water is Their added, boiling in
the case OF cans and as hot as possible
without cracking the glass In the case
of jars. Scalded cap or covers and
rubbers are then put in place loosely
and the filled cans heated in a vessel
of boiling water for twenty to forty
minutes. An ordinary wash boiler fur
nished with a wire screen or a wooden
gratingson which to place the jars is
suitable for this purpose. The boiler
should contain enough water to rise
about halfway up the sides of the jars.
While still at the boiling temperature
the jars or cans are removed, sealed
and placed to cool, lying horizontally
or upside down.
For the "hot pack" method the pre-
pared fruit is placed in a large pot on
the stove with a little water to prevent
burning. After heating to the boiling
point and cooking until the fruit Is
tender and some of the juice has ex-
uded it is poured into the ans or heat
ed jars by means of a perforated or
wire ladle and a wide funnel. Suffi-
cient juice from the pot is then added
just to cover the fruit and the cans or
Jars sealed. These are her heated in
the boiler for about twenty minutes.
For a second batch of the same fruit
the juice remaining in the pot should
be used instead of water for the pre-
liminary cooking.

reduction. In Europe the present ra-
ton is already reduced to a minimum.
Our Situation.
The situation which the United
States faces in it's efforts to maintain
a fair distribution of sugar to the AL
lied world is as follows:
Sugar supplies throughout the coun-
try, in homes, stores, factories and
bakeries are at a low ebb. We must
make increased sugar shipments to the
Allies.
Production of American beet and
Louisiana cane crops Rave beer disap-
pointing.
Porto Rico crops have been cur
tailed.
Immense sugar stocks In Java can
not be reached on account of the ship
ping shortage; ships are needed for
troop movements and munitions.
Army and Navy sugar requirements
have increased as we'll as those from
the Allies.
Most industries using sugar have had
their allotment reduced by one-half !;
some will receive no sugar.
Households should make every eff
fort to preserve the fruit crop without
sugar, or with small amounts of sugar.
Later, when the sugar supply is larg-
er, the canned fruit may be sweetened
as it is used.
