More Honors for s. II. $.

q to IL was the score Of the game
last Friday night in Heselton Hall
between the boys Of S. II. S. and the
boys basket ball team of Brooks
high school The first period of the
game was most exciting because the
visitors started out with such a speed
that they apparently surprised the
S. H. s. basketeers. However the
boys soon became acquainted with
the ways of their visitors and started
their own good playing, The pass
ing on the Brooks team was very
good and they had splendid team
work. Mullen made wonderful
showing for s. II. S. making twenty
points out of twcnty-seyen The
following is the lineup:
S. II. S. q Brooks u

Brooks. Gouls from floor Brad

fouls. Scorer BeaufOrd. Timer

Before the first ten period of the
girls game was over, it was evident
that the Skowhegan lassies were far
superior to the girls of Arson Acad-
envy. The basket shooting of Val
liere and Chabot were excellent as
many of the baskets were made from
very long distances. The visiting team
put ly a good fight however but they
soon realized that the odds We're
against them. During the last period
all of the subs for s. H. 5. were put i'm
and allowed to finish the game. The
two sub forwards Demo and McQuade
made while in the game ten points.

girls:

Stains from chocolate and cocoa are
sometimes persistent and difficult to
remove. They are composed of fat,
resinous coloring matter. fbrous ma
terial, starch, sugar, and sometimes
milk solids. Chocolate and cocoa pre-
pared as beverages differ from cake
chocolate in containing a larger pro-
norton of milk and less fat, but none
of these stains are set by hot water
Several methods of removing choco-
LATE and cocoa stains have been found
satisfactory by the United States De-
nartment of Agriculture. Ordinary
laundering with soap and hot water
will often be sufficient for white or
fast.eolor cotton or linen. Sometimes
If can be used for the so-called wash
silks and washable woolens. It is
done by first soaking the stained por-
ton in cold or lukewarm water, rub
hing the stain with a neutral soap if
necessary. This is followed by thor
oueh rinsing in clean water. Part of
the stains from cake chocolate, con-
fectionery, frosting and the like can
be scraped off with dull knife.
Borax and cold water is sometimes
effective for chocolate and cocoa

BRINING TOMATOES
Is EXCELLENT PLAN
Fruit Can Be Utilized in Sep.
eral Different Ways.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Tomatoes which develop late in the
season are often prevented by frost
from maturing. 1t is not necessary,
however, to lose them entirely as they
can be utilized in a number of ways.
Where large crop must be handled
hurriedly, it Is sometimes convenient
to brine them. Green tomatoes, when
put in a weak brine for a few weeks
have very agreeable flavor, and can
be eaten when taken directly from
the brine 1t is believed by the United
States Department of Agriculture that
this offers very satisfactory method
of preparation for immediate use. A
weak brine is made by adding one-half
pound of salt to nine pints of water
A strong brine is desirable for pre-
serving green tomatoes when it is
necessary to keep them for any length
of time.
1t has been found that these fruits
respond very readily to the action of
brine. 40 per cent brine, made by
dissolving one pound of salt in nine
pints of water is the most satisfac-
tory strength to use for green t0ma-
toes AS the brine must be main
tanned at the same strength through
out the entire process of curing, and
as juices which dilute the brine are
drawn out of all products. it is neces-
sary to add salt from time to time. A
salinometer, which is a simple mex
pensive piece of apparatus, is the best
means of determining when the brine
is of the required strength. It's use
is recommended wherever possible, es-
pecially II. any quantity is being ham
died. Lacking salinometer, a simple
household test for q 40 per cent brine
ia to drop fresh egg in it. The egg
should barely float, being almost sub
merged.
A key or stone jar is satisfactory
for brining. Kegs must be well
washed with hot water and soaked
overnight with fresh water to be sure
they are watertight Round board
covers coated with hot paraffin are
used to keep the vegetable submerged
in the brine. Clean bricks are used
as weights. Another large round wood
cover over the top of each key is nee
essary to keep out dirt and dust.
At frequent intervals it is necessary
to remove, with large wooden spoon,
the scum which forms on the surface.
This contains wild yeast, molds and
various organisms. Covers and weights
should be washed and the strength of
the brine tested whenever the scum
is being cared for
The salt is removed from the brined
tomatoes by soaking them in fresh
water. They can then be made into
sweet, sour or mixed pickles.
