Can it be possible that this is plan
to get votes, rather than to fill the
bins and cupboards of the farmer?
We have never seen the Demo-

Pasteurization Preserves Cider

The best method for keeping ci-
der sweet is by pasteurization as
soon as the cider comes from the
press, according to j. w. Ames, ag-
ricultural chemist at the Ohio Ex-
pertinent Station. Pasteurizing is
most satisfactorily accomplished by
heating cider in capped bottles or
sealed jars placed in a boiler or 9TH
er large vessel of water heated to
about 1S5 degrees A false bottom
of wooden Stats must be placed in
the bottom of the boiler to prevent
cracking of bottles by direct heat.
The temperature of the cider must
reach 100 degrees and be held at
that point for 80 minutes. To de-
termine when the cider has been
heated to the proper temperature,
place a thermometer in an uncap-
ped bottle OF cider in the hot water.
Cider can also be preserved by
heating in kettle directly over fire
to 18O degrees, and then pouring
into sterilized containers and seal
ing air tight while hot Direct
heating IN an open Kettle, however,
will injure the flavor 10 some ex-
tent When the pasteurizing process
is carefully carried out, cider wili
not ferment and will retain most Of
the natural flavor
Various chemicals are sometimes
added to cider a. preseryatives.
Benzoate of soda, and sodium salicy-
late are most commonly used. Three
ounces of benzoate and one ounce
of salicylate are sufficient for about
40 gallons of cider. The chemicals
should be dissolved in about gal
lon Of warm cider and thoroughly
mixed with the cider in the barrel.
Although chemicals may slow
down fermentation fer a time and
keep the alcohol content Of cider
below the legal limit of one-half of
one percent. their use is not recon-
mended. Cider preserved with
chemicals has disagreeable taste
and may have a harmful effect.

A Thought for Sunday
By
AMOS II. WELLS
The Captains w ell

One of the most beautiful of the
many beautiful memorials erected
in Massachusetts this tercentenary
year is the stone and bronze repro
duction of '"The Captains Well" in
the town Of Amesbury. Whittier's
poem, "The Captains Well" tells
the story of Captain Valentine Bag
ley, of Amesbury, who was ship
wrecked off Cape Morebet, fell into
the hands of savages, and he with
the crew of thirty-five men, depriv-
ed of all that they had, journeyed
four hundred miles afoot over the
hot sands of the Arabian desert to
Muscat. Only Bagley and five 9TH
ers reached Muscat.
On the way, nearly overcome with
ed that if he ever reached his we'll
watered homeland, he would con-
struct a well for passers-by, that no
one should suffer for thirst as he
had That VOW he fulfilled, and now
it is perpetuated in this memorial.
Every Christian, the Savior said,
may become a we'll of living water.
Every Christian may be constant
spring of refreshment and joy to
those around him. Every Christian
may do, in very real way, what
Captain Bagley did for the people
of Amesbury.
sI was thirsty and We gave me
drink
