We see no occasion, no reason
able opportunity, no fit excuse,
for the exercises in this canvass OF
methods that have quite often be-
come obnoxious in Vermont poll

high plane. free from appeals to
prejudice, from sIurs or insinua-
tons Of disagrceable personal
nature and from attacks upon per-
sonal honor. There need be and
should be no heavy expenditure of
money in behalf OF any candidate,
certainly none in Questionable di-
rections. A free and fair judgement
as between the merits of the can
didate is all that either, or the
supporters of either, should de
mand or Randolph Her

The folks who are looking for q
new day are frequently not awake
enough to see the opportunities
Of the present one.

An excellent vinegar may be made

In the bureau of chemistry of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, have shown that this delicious
the garden affords a liberal supply
Of this fruit.
Vinegar made from raspberries is
dark In color. Samples made In the
bureau Of chemistry and properly
bottled were found after three years
to have retained not only the original
degree of acidity but the odor and
flavor. In salads and other table delica-

amount of this vinegar to water, and
icing and sweetening to taste.
How to Make Vinegar.
Two fermentations, the alcoholic and
the acetc, are necessary In making
vinegar. The method Is as follows:
Use ordinary straight-sided open
topped stone Jars as receptacles. With

quired to complete the alcoholic fer
mentation. The time needed to
utilize the sugar in the berries com

when loss of weight ceases, the fer.
mentation is complete; (2) test some
Of the Juice with Brix or Balling
hydrometer. The reading of Juice
suitable for making a satisfactory
vinegar should not be less than 10.
As the fermentation proceeds, this will
decrease daily until 1t Is not more
than l or 2, which indicates that the
sugar has practically all been utilized.
Action Of Yeast.
The action Of the yeasts on the
cells makes 1t easy to separate the
juice from the berries, squeezing 1t by
hand through cheesecloth. The Juice
is then returned to the jar: and, to
insure a proper acetic fermentation,
small amount of vinegar should be
added as starter. An unpasteurized
vinegar is best for this purpose, but II
this is not at hand, use any good
vinegar in the proportion OF / part to
Of the fermented juice. Cover as be-
fore and allow to stand without agita-
ton In warm place. A scum or
film Will soon form. This should not
me disturbed.
The acetic fermentation sometimes
takes place very rapidly where berries
are used. The acidity should be de-
termined daily by withdrawing q
small amount Of the vinegar by means
Of suction through a pipette or glass
tube and submitting 1t to test by the
use Of vinegar tester. or In the
absence Of this. determining by the
taste when It is sufficiently acid. As
soon as the vinegar reaches a proper
degree Of acidity ut should contain 4
per cent acetic acid). the fermenting
process should be stopped. This is
done by first flltering through paper
or filtering-cloth, and bottling. Bottles
should be well filled and sealed tight
ly with paraffined corks.
