Use the Currants.

TIE currant season is not a very
long one, but while it lasts we can
gain a good deal of variety for our
table il we win only use the currants
to their limit. There are many good
ways of serving them. One. of course
lis simply to wash them and chill them
and serve them on their stems
Another is to wash them. shake them
carefully to remove most of the
water and then to dip them into
sugar remains on them. Or you 60.
dip them carefully into a frosting
made of water and confectioner's
sugar. Test it out to be sure 1t is
thick enough to glaze. but have it as
thin as possible SO that the dipping
may be nicely done. Then dry the
currant punches carefully on waxed
paper. or, if you are clever enough TO
devise some way of doing so. by
hanging them up.
Here are some good currant des-
serts:
Currant Water Ice-Soak one table
spoonful of gelatin in cold water
it one cup of boiling water and stir
until dissolved. Mix with it two
cups more water. two cups sugar, two
cups currant juice and the juice of a
lemon. Freeze.
Green Currant Pie-One pint OF
x
currant jelly, six heaping tablespoon
fuls Of sugar. two of flour and two
of water Line pie plate with puff
paste: put in the ingredients in lay
ers; cover and bake twenty minutes
or till done.
Ripe Currant Pie-Remove a sufi-
cient quantity of currants from their
stems. Line a pie plate with crust:
fill with currants: sprinkle a heap
ing teacupful of sugar. a little -four
and few bits of butter over them.
Cover with a crust and bake in a
hot oven until done and of a deli
cate color. This will make a very
juicy pie. and great care should be
taken that the edges are well pressed
together.
Compete of Currants-Stem a pint
of red currants and smash with a
wooden spoon; add cupfui of sugar,
or more. if necessary, and when the
sugar has dissolved bring to the boil.
Turn into a serving dish and let stand
for two or three hours before serving.

The Quick and Easy Way to Make
Blackberry or Dewberry Jam
Makes Two-thirds More Jam From Same
Amount of Fruit, and Never Fails
Uses Ripe Fruit, Takes Only One Minutes Boiling and
Saves All the Flavor and Color

Every one who likes fresh berry
pie will love good berry jam. Par
ticularly when all the flavor of fresh
ripe blackberries or dewberries is
preserved in the jam. Such berry
jam is now possible in every home. :,
A new and never-failing method
has now been discovered with which
any one can make the best quality
quickly and very economically. With
the Certo Process full-ripe berries
are used-not unripe berries so
necessary by the old method. The
Certo Process retains all the rich
flavor of this ripe fruit because 1t
requires only one minutes boiling
not the 80 or more minutes re-
ouired by the old method. This
long boiling-down destroys juice
and flavor, and particularly kills
the real blackberry or dewberry
taste. With Certo, therefore. the
result is far superior fruity flavor
and two-thirds more jam from the
same amount of fruit, because no
Juice is boiled away. 1t also ban
ishes all guesswork or worry, as
perfect results are certain.
The new Certo Process for max
ing berry jam is very simple: Crush
well in single layers about 2 quarts
ripe berries, using wooden masher,
crushing each berry and discarding
all green parts. Add juice of l
lemon. Measure 4 level cups z lbs.)
crushed berries, including lemon
juice into large kettle. Add 7H
leveled cups (3A lbs.) sugar and
mix we'll. Stir hard and constantly
and bring to a vigorous boil over
the hottest fire. Boil hard for one
full minute with continual stirring.

UNION LOYALTY

union miners who will be willing
to enter the mines. At least $780,
900 men are needed to turn out
useful amount of coal. This will
be found utterly impossible while
the men remain loyal to the
uniOn."-From interview with Joe
Norris, head of IOwa's striking
miners.
Perhilps Joe Morris is right. 1t may
be imp ossible to get the necessary
help to- man the coal mines, under the
Harding plan, "while the men remain
loyal to the union.' But there's an
other Union, worth moments
thought, worth more than moments
loyalty. 1t is the Union Of States
representing the union of 100000
peoples vital interests-their liveli-
hood now, and their very lives next
winter. 1t is all very well for Joe
Morris to talk about being "loyal to
the unioIl." But the first need today
is for Americans who recognize a
paramount "loyalty" to the greater
Union" which represents all that we
are and all that we can ever hope to
be. The United States is the greatest
Union in history. All other unions"
pale into insignificance beside it. The
United States requires coal. All the
mine owners and all the mine en-
ployes in the country put together can
claim no rights" paramount to the
fright" Of this one big "Union" to get
coal. When this one supreme Union"
asks belligerents in the coal business
to resume production-and submit
} their differences to arbitration under
} Government auspices-the only legiti-
mate chance to talk Of loyalty" is
1.-THE loyalty" which supports the Gov
eminent and the "Union" which re-
presents us ALL Joe Morris men
and Joe himself, and all like him
would exhibit the most intelligent
"loyalty" even to their own compar-
atively little union" if they would
demand of John l.. Lewis paramount
loyalty" Through agreement with
The Presidency to the paramount
"Union" which can acknowledge no
super sovereign. Their own rights
would be sure of protection - surer
than they have ever been before
and they would not be in the unten-
able position Of asking the 90 per
cent of us to 90 broke and then to
freeze while we impotently wait for
belligerent l per cent to finish an il
logical shindy. No sane man but
wants the legitimate protests of the
miners satisfied. No sane man but
knows they would be legitimately sat
isfied under the spurned Harding pro-
gram. No sane man but knows no
operator, no employer, could succeed
in standing against that program a
single second if John l.. Lewis & Com
pany were to accede. Yet Joe Morris
says Harding is trying to break the
union" On the contrary, he is merely
trying to "save the Union" If he did
less, he ought to be impeached. His
duty is to follow through" The
duty of every American is to help
him. In no other way can they help
themselves. In choice between
"loyalty to the union" and loyalty to
the Union" can there be even Sec

Weather and
Crop Bulletin

Light rains the first of the week
were insufficient, and more is needed
in most sections. The temperature
was moderate to cool, sunshine ample
except rather deficient in the upper
peninsula. Previous heavy rains have
rotted some potatoes, which otherwise
are doing we'll Many are spoiled,
also. The cool nights still retard
corn somewhat, but it is looking WELL
Small fruits are mostly picked in
southern counties. Cherries and ber-
ries have been good yield. Early
apples are ripening in southern coun-
ties. Nearly all fruits are in good
condition. Pasturage is fair to good,
and most hay is now in, little being
lost from previous heavy rains.
Vegetables and garden truck are doing
well. Sugar beets are fair to good.
Wheat is all in and threshing under
way in southern and central counties,
and much is cut in northern counties.
The yield is rather disappointing.
Oats are fair, and ripening; some are
being cut. Rye also is mostly har-
vested, and some threshing being
done, with but fair crop.
Vegetation as a whole is reported as
ahead of the season, with farm work
but average. Grasshoppers in the up
per peninsula are the worst insect
pest reported this week.
