FRUIT JUICES HANDY
FOR WINTER JELLIES
Pressure OF Work During Hot
Season Is Relieved.
Besides Being Excellent for Jelly and
Homemade Drinks Juices Are
Recommended for uso In
Gelatin, Ice Cream, Etc.

The juice of such fruits as the
grape. currant. blackberry. strawberry.
raspberry. elderberry and cherry
makes delicious, wholesome drinks.
Fruit juices also may be canned and
made into jelly when 1t is wanted dur
ing the winter. Winter Jelly making
relieves the pressure of work during
the hot and busy fruit season. Sugar
need not be added until the juice Is
served or until the Jelly is made.
The following directions are given
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture: Extract the juice by boil
ing the fruit with a very little water
and strain through a jelly bag. To
prepare the juice for canning pour 1t
into bottles or jars which have been
boiled for Is minutes. Put these on
false bottom in a hot-water bath. This
may be a commercial Gamer or a con-
tainer large enough to hold sufficient
water. The water should reach the
necks of the bottles and the shoulders
of the Jars. A cotton stopper may be
pressed into the neck of the bottle and
left during the processing period. or a
cork. after being boiled, may be put
in lightly.
If Jars are used as containers put
boiled tops in place and half seal.
Process for 80 minutes at the simmer
ing point. Remove, put shoppers or
bottles in tightly, and when cool dip
the top of the bottle into melted par
ATTN or sealing wax. Equal parts OF
rosin and beeswax make a good wax.
Finish tightening the tops of the jars
as soon as they are removed from the
bath. Test for leaks and store in
dry, dark, cool place.
Aside from their use in making jelly
and as a base for homemade drinks
these fruit juices are excellent for use
in gelatin, sauces, ice creams, sherbets,
and other desserts. Those which are
to be used in this way will have a bet
ter flavor if sugar is added before they
are bottled.

DEVICES REDUCE
AMOUNT OF WORK
Daily Attention to Carpets Tends
Greatly to Tighten Periodic
Cleaning.
REMOVABLE RUGS ARE HANDY
Arrangement Of House, Wise Selection
Of Furnishings and Use Of Labor
Saving contrivanees Assist
Housekeepers.

Changed living conditions have
brought changes in housekeeping
methods. When houses were less COM
pletely heated, and parts of them were
closed during the cold months, spring
housekeeping was necessary TO get
the closed rooms ready for use dur
ing the warm months, and fall house
cleaning was necessary to prepare the
house for winter. Nowadays, all the
rooms In most houses are used and
kept clean throughout the year, and
upheavals in spring and fall are no
longer necessary. Moreover. the in
creasing use of removable rugs and
some of the new cleaning devices make
It much easier to take the dirt out day
by day or week by week. Not all
housekeepers realize how much the
work of keeping things clean can be
Iessened by choosing the right things
and handling them in the right way
This is not merely a matter of labor
saving devices like vacuum cleaners,
but depends partly on how the house
is planned, what furnishings and FIN
ishings are used, and how the work
of caring for them is organized.
Daily Care of Carpets.
For the daily care of wooden or cot
ton carpets and rugs, carpet sweeper
is very good, because it takes up lint
and coarse dirt without raising the
dust. For more thorough cleaning
some other appliance must be used, as

GOOD LESSON FOR BEGINNER
Specialists Outline Plan for Oetermin-
ing When Dough Is Ready to Be
Put in Pans.

Beginners often have difficulty in
telling whether the dough is ready to
be divided into loaves and put into
pans. A good rule is to measure its
volume, say home economics special
lists of the United States Department
of Agriculture. When it is ready to
be made into loaves, the dough for
each loaf, if made out of hard-wheat
flour, should amount to three pints;
If made from soft flour. to about 21a
pints.
The levels to which these masses
of dough will reach in the mixing
bowl can easily be determined before
hand and marked. For illustration:
If one loaf of bread is to be made,
before mixing 1t put three plnts of wa
ter into the mixing bowl and smrk
the point to which the water comes.
This will indicate the height to which
the dough should rise.
When recipes direct that dough be
allowed to double or treble in volume,
It is convenient to have a measuring
glass to determine the expansion. An
ordinary tumbler will do, but glass
of smaller diameter, like a small jelly
set to rise tear off small piece and
pack 1t in the glass. Note the height
TO which 1t comes and mark the place
1t will reach when its volume has
doubled or trebled, as the case may be.
Put this beside the large leaves of
bread and use 1t as an Indicator.
The Colorado statesman. [volume] (Denver, Colo.) 1895-1961, 1920-11-27

the brushes of the carpet sweeper do
not go deep enough into the carpet
to remove fine dirt. A vacuum cleaner
Is excellent, but if that is not avail
able, effort should be made to find
some other thorough but comparatively
dustless process. Using a dampened
broom and scattering leftover tea
leaves, bits of rumpled, dampened
newspaper, or one of the commercial
sweeping preparations on the carpet
before sweeping, helps to prevent dust
from flying. These dampened materi-
ais must be used with caution, how
ever, or stains will result especially
on delicately colored carpets. Wiping
a carpet with a dampened cloth after
sweeping removes more dust and
freshens the carpet.
Small rugs should be cleaned out of
doors, If possible, preferably on the
dry grass or dry snow. They should
be placed right side down, beaten with
a fiat carpet beaten, swept, turned
over, and swept again. Hanging rugs
over a line while they are being
cleaned, or holding them by the cor
ners and shaking them, strains them
badly; it may break the threads or
loosen the bindings and cause the ends
to ravel.
Usinu Soap and Water on Rugs.
Practically all rugs, after thorough
beating, may be cleaned with soap and
water. Rag rugs may be washed ike
any other heavy material but they
must be rinsed thoroughly. Sometimes
IT is easier to rinse a heavy, wet rug
with n hose than In a tub. Other rugs
can he placed on n table and scrubbed
with q brush and mild soap suds. AS
each section is cleaned, ii should be
rinsed thoroughly and the water should
be changed as 1t becomes discolored.
Rugs washed by this method are clean,
but they may shrink and lose their
shane and the colors may fade and
run. Oriental rugs with very long,
thick pile should not be thus cleaned
unless they can be dried quickly and
thoroughly; If moisture remains In the
depth of the pile it may rot the
threads, United States Department OF
Agriculture household specialists sug-
gest.
Fine smooth mattings should be
swept with soft brush and busted
with dry mop, or If necessary they
may be washed with cloth tightly
wrung out of warm water, and wiped
dry with another cloth. All grass and
fiber floor coverings should be taken
I'D occasionally to remove the dirt
which Sits through in spite of frequent
cleaning.
