MALT SIRUP GOOD AS
A SUGAR SUBSTITUTE
New Sweet Undoubtedly Will
Make a Place for Itself in
Every Household.

sembling Honey, Which Adds
- Greatly to Its Palatability
and Value in Cooking

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultureo
Malt sugar sirup is brand new
sweet which has arrived on a CONNER
cinl scale at the psychological moment
to relieve the sugar shortage, say the
specialists of the bureau of chemistry,
who have Investigated various substi-
tutes for sugar. In addition to being
n sweet, malt sugar sirup has a deli
ciOus flavor somewhat resembling that
of honey, which adds much to its pal
atability and value as a sugar substi-
tute.
While malt sugar has long been
known to chemists. its production on
a commercial scale is only beginning.
Two factors have stimulated its pro-
duction recently. The shortage of
sugar has developed a market for 1t,
and the recent prohibition law has
made available both the raw material
and the machinery needed for IT'S

from the same grains as beer and may
be made from corn or potatoes or any
plant containing starch. Barley which
was used until recently in the manu-
facture of beer. can be used now 10
produce malt sugar sirup.
Breweries. with very little change,
can be used and are now being used
for its manufacture. Up to certain
point the process for making matt
sugar sirup is the same as the process
for making beer. Evaporating pans are
the principal additional equipment re
guired by breweries to become malt
sugar sirup factories.
Malt sugar sirup looks very much
like maple sirup. 1t can be used ior
everything that cane sugar is USED 1or'
While its use on the table may not De
quite as convenient as sugar, 1t is
most excellent substitute for table use
when sugar is not to be had, as 1t not
only provides sweetness but is equal 10

New Way to Catch EN-

Two Augustans recently went fish
ing, in the Troutdale region. They
caught SO many fish that tine hung
heavily on their hands. because they
had to loaf most OF each day, after
landing their legal amount Of fish
early in the morning. The rest OF
the story is thusly:
One fellow was rowing. with his
rod in the holder. The other fellow
got a strike and the navigator OF the
boat handled the craft very cleverly
and the good-sized trout was landed
But-"Where is my rod ?" was the
query of the navigator No answer
came, because neither Of the fisher
men had noticed in the excitement Of
landing real trout that it had
gone overheard. However, they
took notes on the location of the
boat and reported the incident when
they went ashore to bragg over
their big fish.
