When scientists find out just
how various radio waves behave
in the Ionosphere they hope to be
able greatly to increase the
of radio communica-
tions and ultimately develop ways
to control rocket weapons or
even space ships by radio.
PIERCED BY SHORT WAVES
The contact with the moon
proved what scientists had previ-
ously suspected, that ultra short
radio waves would pass through
the ionosphere. The waVe-lengths
used in normal radio communi-
cations Will not 60 through the
ionosphere. but are bounced back.
To give a rough idea, one
scientist said, suppose you stand
on your back porch and throw
peas al the screen. All bounce
hack. Throw sand AZ the screen
and il will 60 through. If there
was a solid surface just outside
the screen. some sand might
bounce back through.
The screen is like the lonosphere,
the sand like ultra-Short waves,
the peas like wave-lengthS used
in normal communications.

EFFECTS OF STEEL TIEUP

The steel strike has curtalled
Ford operations somewhat, and
fewer than $4,000 may be actively

crease becomes effective
Although workers who have
been laid off because of glass and
steel shortages will not imme-
diately benefit by the raises, the
settlements averted danger OF
further strikes that would have
cut them off from unemployment
benefits and thrown them upon
the relief rolls.

Cane and beet sugar are equally
satisfactory for making jelly.
One-fourth of the granulated sug-
ar called for in a recipe may be
replaced with corn strip.
Sugar crystals are likely to form
in jelly if: (D it is cooked too long,
(2) too much sugar is used, (3)
there is not enough acid in the juice,
(4) it is left standing unsealed.
The needle shape crystals in
grape jelly are caused by the tar
taric acid in the grapes. These
crystals seldom form in jelly made
from unsweetened canned juice.
Canned juice should be strained be-
fore using. Jelly made from fresh
grape juice is less likely to contain
crystals if the juice is left in the re-
frigerator for "a hours before u.s.
ing. 1t should be strained to remove
any crystals which may form in it..
Dummy jelly is usually caused
by overlooking or by long slow
cooking.
Jelly may be cloudy if: (D the
juice is not carefully strained, (2)
under-ripe fruit is used, (3) allowed
to cool too much before pouring
into glasses, az sauce pan is held
high above the glass when the jelly
is poured (this traps in air bubbles)
Jellies may "weep" if: (D not
cooked enough, (2) glasses are filled
too full, (3) glass not clean above
the paraffin, az paraffin more than
one-eighth inch thick or does not
touch sides of glasses.
Use regular jelly glasses as they
are the right size and shape.
Boil jelly glasses 20 minutes to
sterilize-then drain dry.
Cook jelly rapidly and in small
patches, not more than two quarts at
a time.
Jelly must be cooked to the finish
point. That's when it sheets from
a metal spoon. This happens when
instead of leaving the side of tilt
ed spoon in a stream, the last of the
strip divides into two large drops
which meet and then slide off the
spoon together.
Leave at least one-fourth inch
space at the top when filling jelly
glasses. Do not spill or splash jelly
on the inside rim of the glass.
Use a sterilized spoon to remove
bubbles or scum from jelly before
it is covered with melted paraffin.
When covering with melted paraf-
fin, turn the jelly glass in the hand
so that the paraffin will touch the
sides of the glass all the way
around. Never use paraffin more
than once.
Cover jelly with metal lids and
store in a dry place. Dampness
causes spoilage.
Haphazard methods yield haphaz-
ard results whereas following reli-
able instructions gives reliable re-
suits in form of excellent jelly.
