TO REMOVE TARNISH
FROM THREE METALS
Rottenstone Mixed With Oil Is
Substance Most Used
oxaIic Acid, ButtermiIk or Vinegar
Are Cleaning Agents Suggested by
Household Experts-Whiting
Takes UP Moisture.

The tarnish on copper, brass and
bronze is copper carbonate. 1t may be
removed by friction, or dissolved In
weak acids.
Rottenstone mixed with oil to a
creamy consistency is the common
substance used on these metals. After
this cleaner has been applied the
metal should be polished with a soft
cloth. A final rubbing with dry rotten
stone or whiting will give the metal
an even brighter luster.
Oxalic-acid solution, buttermilk or
vinegar, especially when warmed,
quickly dissolves the tarnish on these
metals All traces of these cleaning
agents must be removed, however, or
the metal will tarnish again very
quickly, say household specialists of
the United States department of agri-
culture. Washing the metal in water,
drying 1t, and rubbing it with dry
whiting is usually effective. The Witt
ing not only takes up moisture but
polishes by friction.

GRAPE JUICE USEFUL
TO FLAVOR DESSERTS
Ample Suppy Is Easily Obtained
by Housekeeper.
Unfermented Product, Properly Made
and Bottled Will Keep for Indefi-
mite Period IL Not Exposed
to the Atmosphere.

Wise housekeepers can have plenty
of grape juice for use not only as a
beverage but as fiavoring in various
tempting desserts. The following di-
rections for making II are given by the
United States department of agricul-
ture:
Only clean, sound, well-ripened but
not overripe grapes should be used.
These may be crushed by potato
masher or some similar implement, or
the juice may be pressed out in an or
binary cider mill. Pour Immediately
into a glass or enameled vessel and al
low 1t to stand overnight. Drain the
Juice from the sediment and run
through several thicknesses of clean
flannel. Pour into clean bottles, leav-
ing space at the top for the liquid to
expand when hot. Put bottles on
false bottom in a wash boiler, If no
commercial pasteurizer is available;
fill boiler with water to within an
inch or so of the tops of the bottles.
Place a thermometer in one of the bot
ties and heat until the juice reaches
temperature of $50 degrees; then take
the bottles cut and seal or cork them
Immediately. Only new corks that
have been soaked for 30 minutes in
water at a temperature of about 14O
degrees should be used. 1t is well to
take the further precaution of sealing
the corks with paraffin or sealing wax
to prevent the entrance of mold germs.
Grape juice may also be made by
adding one pint of water to every five
pounds of grapes. Concords and Mag
aras make an acceptable product
Crush the grapes, add the water
bring nearly to boiling point, and
strain. Add one-half cupful of granu-
lated sugar to every quart of juice.
Bring just to a boil, pour into boiled
bottles or cans, place in water bath,
and boil ten minutes; seal air-tight.
Unfermented grape juice properly
made and bottled will keep indefinitely
If not exposed to the atmosphere or to
infection from mold germs. When
bottle is once opened, however, the
contents should be used as soon as
possible.
