Minimizing tlie Use of Sugar
The acute sugar shortage is dis
turbing our home-makers very much.
Apparently, there is no relief in
sight. As a result of the existing
situation, many letters are being di
rected to the attention of the editor
of these columns requesting advice
and information as to what can or
should be done by the housewife un
der existing circumstances. A num
ber of requests have been received
asking that certain recipes printed
during the war period be again re
produced for the information of all
who may be concerned. These re
cipes are standard and, of course,
thoroughly dependable on that ac
count. They represent the informa
tion made available from the most
reliable sources. They were pre
pared and edited under the direction
of Miss Mary E. Creswell, director
of home economics, Georgia State
College of Agriculture, and Miss Ola
Powell, of the states relations office,
United states department of agricul
ture.
We should make a special effort
in spite of the high price of sugar
to preserve as much fruit as possi
ble. Fruit is an essential constitu
ent of the home dietary and is val-
uable both in the raw and in the pre
served state. It supplies certain ele
ments which are not easily obtained
from other sources, such as the fruit
acids. It may be that sugar will be
cheaper later on. In that event, all
the fruits that are preserved with
the use of only a moderate amount of
sugar can then be sweetened to suit
the taste. We hope our readers will
not make the mistake of allowing
any fruit to go to waste because they
do not feel they can pay the present
prices for sugar. A little sugar, if
properly used, may be made to go
a long way in effectively accomplish
ing the first stage in preserving
fruits. In this connection we wish
to advise all who are concerned to
carefully cut out and preserve the
recommendations made in this ar
ticle as these recipes will certainly
not be printed again this season.
Jams are made c-f small fruits,
which are not whole or firm enough
to use for preserves. No attempt Is
made to retain the original shape of
the fruit, the finished product having
a uniform consistency. Marmalades
have a more jelly-like texture and
thin slices of fruit appear suspended
throughout the mixture. In fruit
butters and pastes frequently Tess
sugar is used than In jams and the
product Is more concentrated. Con
serves may be made of large or small
fruits cooked in the same manner as
jams. Sometimes nuts are added.
With jams, preserves and jellies,
it is advisable to use a chemicr-1
thermometer, Centigrade reading,
ranging from 0 degree to 110 degrees,
which, having fewer figures than a
Fahrenheit instrument, is more eas
ily read. Thd stem of this instru
ment should be far enough above the
surface to be easily seen. Fahren
heit readings given in recipes are
approximate.
Well glazed, hermetically sealed
stoneware jars (fig. 15), with capaci
ty of eight ounces and up, are suit
able and attractive containers for
packing jams, marmalades, relishes
and pickles.
Jams and marmalades may be
packed hot In hot jars and sealed
immediately. When packing for mar
ket, however, it is far better to
process them both to Insure a tight
seal. Process pints for thirty min
utes at simmering, 188 degrees Fah
renheit (81 degrees C.).
Apple Butter
Measure the apples, wash to re
move dirt, slice into small pieces and
for each bushel of apples add four
gallons of water; boil until the fruit
is soft, then rub through a screen or
sieve. To the pulp from each bushel
of apples add two gallons of cider
that has been concentrated to one
half Its original volume. Bring to
a boil and add twelve pounds of
sugar. Continue to cook, and just
before the consistency desired for
finished apple butter is reached, add
spices, cinnamon and cloves, accord
ing to taste. When the butter is as
thick as desired, place In hot con
tainers and seal immediately.
Grape Jam
Select grapes about one-half of
which are under-ripe rather than en
tirely ripe. Wash and steam the
fruit. Separate the pulp from the
skins. Cook pulp for ten minutes
and press through a sieve or colan
der to remove seeds. Add three
fourths cup of water to each quart
of skin and boil until tender. Then
put the pulp and skins together and
measure. For every quart of the
mixture use one pound of sugar.
Brin'g’ the fruit to a boil, add the
sugar, and cook, stirring frequently
until it will give the jelly test or
reaches 105 degrees C. or 221 de
grees F. Pour while hot into hot
jars and process as for jam.
Gingered Bears
Use pears not quite ripe, peel, core
and cut into thin slices. To eight
pounds of pears allow six pounds
sugar, one cun of water, and the
juice of four lemons. Cut the lemon
rinds into thin strips and add them.
Also add one-eighth pound of ginger
root' cut into pieces. Simmer until
thick as marmalade. Pack like peach
jam.

consist of boiled-down fruit pulp
with sugar added according to the
acidity of the fruit and are improved
in flavor if several varieties of fruit
are mixed. After the fruit paste is
made (see recipes) it can be colored
red, yellow or green with harmless
vegetable colors. The coloring is
stirred into the boiling mass after
removing from the fire. Different
flavors also can be added at this
stage if desired. The paste is pour
ed up in a half-inch layer on flat
dishes, marble or glass slabs, which
are first rubbed with a cloth dipped
in a good salad oil. The dishes are
then exposed to draft for a couple
of days, after, which the paste is cut
into figures. If the paste is well
boiled down it is dried more easily.
The paste can also be cut with a
common knife or with a fluter vege
table knife, or it can be cut in round
cakes, the center of which is again
cut with a smaller circular cutter.
There will thus be both rings and
small round cakes. The cut paste is
placed on paper sprinkled with crys
tallized sugar or common granulated
sugar. Then it stands again a cou
ple of days exposed to draft, is dip
ped in crystallized sugar, and packed
in a tin or wooden box lined with
parchment paper and with layers of
the same paper placed between the
layers of paste.
The paste can be kept thus aqcl
served as dessert, and as garnishing
on creams and custards, frozen
creams, large cakes, etc.
Apricot Baste
One pound powdered sugar to one
pound’ fruit pulp. Rub the fruit pulp
through a puree strainer and weigh
it. Add the sugar, put it over a slow
fire, and cook until very thick, so
that; when a spoon has been passed
through it the mass does not run
together immediately. Then pour the
paste upon flat dishes which have
been rubbed with oil\and allow it to
dry. Cut and pack in layers as direct
ed above.
In the same manner raspberry,
strawberry and currant pastes are
made.
Quince Baste
Three-quarters pound powdered
sugar for each pound of fruit pulp.
Wipe the fruit, cut into quarters, re
move flower and core, and cook in
water until very tender. After rub
bing the pulp through a sieve, weigh
it and add the required amount of
sugar. It is then cooked until very
thick. Scalded and chopped nut ker
nels may be added. The pulp remain
ing after the juice has been extracted
for quince jelly may be used also.
Apple Baste
One-half pound powdered sugar to
one pound pulp as rubbed through
a sieve. For this product apples
that are of lower grade than is re
quired for some other purposes can
be used. Cut the apples into quar
ters. Remove flower, stem and core.
Put fruit into cold water until it is
ready to be cooked. Boil tender un
der cover and over a very low fire
in order not to scorch. Rub the
tender apples through a coarse sieve,
weigh and put in the kettle to be
cooked with the sugar under con
stant stirring until it is rather firm.
It can be varied in taste by adding
different flavors as, for instance,
vanilla, peppermint, or orange flavor,
or cooked with either finely cut
citron, finely cut lemon peel, or
blanched and cut nut kernels. The
paste is poured out, dried and kept
as the others.
Other fruit pastes can be made of
cherries, plums, kumquats, quavas,
and other tropical fruits.
It is often advisable to make sev
eral different pastes. When near y
dry (before cutting) place different
colored or different flavored layers
on the top of each other as in a lay
er cake. With a sharp knife cut in
one-half-inch strips through all lay
ers and dry.'
Tomato Baste
One quart thick strained tomato
pulp, four tablespoonfuls chopped
sweet red pepper pulp, or one table
spoonful paprika, one slice onion,
spoonful sugar and one tablespoonful
mixed spice.
Cook spices, tied in bag, with to
mato pulp over boiling water for
about three hours, or until the paste
is thick enough to hold the shape of
spoon when testing by dipping out
a spoonful. Pack hot, process small
jars 15 minutes in water both at
212 degrees F.

Dear Children: Here lam in New Yo t K again, the old but ever

The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
Vice Haunts in Bi# Cities
The late tragedies in New York
city, where two men of enormous
wealth were found dead in their own
palatial homes, and under circum
stances of appalling vicious habits,
have aroused the impression that
morality and decency are back num
bers in that great city.
The facts go to prove that licen
tiousness is rampant, and these
wealthy adulterers were using their
money to decoy young women by the
dozens, into these gilded haunts of
vice.
Some years ago there also occur
red the Evelyn Thaw incident, and
it is still sufficient to be used as a
parallel for almost any disclosure of
similar import. But even Harry
Thaw had the excuse of the “unwrit
ten law’’ to cover his killing of
Stanford White in a roof garden
scene which culminated In a long
drawn-out court trial and the life
imprisonment of Harry Thaw by the
decree of a criminal court.
Harry Thaw, the son of millionaire
parents, and spoiled by the money,
was a long sight better man than
those who kept an open house for
giddy young women who craved
money and clothes, and who side
stepped from virtue and decency to
risk the entrance into those palaces
of vice.
In both of these late tragedies, the
men forfeited their own lives; and
the more that is said about them,
the more we are convinced that while
they were unfit to live, they certain
ly were unfit to die and go to the
judgment.
These things are so common an
occurrence that one trembles for the
future of a people who are touched
by this tidal wave of criminal lust
in the homes of the very rich of New
York city.
They evidence delay in the essen
tials of our present civilization. The
country is going down in reputation,
as well as in other particulars.
We are talked of as becoming an
Intensely wicked nation. The money
does not gild over these exposures,
for It becomes more and more dis
gusting from their frequency—and
immensity.
Down at the bottom of the whole
business lies the lack of parental
discipline in the homes, where vain
and giddy young women are wont to
dwell. There should be some sort of
a law, maybe a police arrangement,
where loose-minded girls could be
arrested and kept out of such homes.
If it is only a life-saving device, it
should be used for the safety of the
community.
But I may be reminded that these
headstrong young women deceive
their parents, and go in secret where
they are invited, by baits of money
and fine clothes. If it was only
these individual units, the world
would be better off if all concerned
went by the pistol route, but unhap
pily they leave sc many behind them
to suffer in mind and body and repu
tation, because of such evil doing. It
is a sad commentary on the state of
our nation when gilded vice brazens
its way into the public prints of
these United States.
What About Buel in the Approach
ing Winter?
Fifteen dollars per ton —ladies and
I gentlemen! This is about the price
that we must pay for coal to burn to
keep from freezing down here in
the southland. In the more northern
sections the winters will be longer
and cold more intense. What are
these people to do when the mer
cury falls to zero and twenty odd
degrees below, in the higher lati
tudes?
The war ceased nearly two years
ago. We all remember the stop
came on November 11, 1918. We pay
more ’for coal, more for every com
modity today than we did two years
ago, in August, 1918. War seems
to stop, but everything else rises.
We get worse ’instead of better as
to the high cost of living.
I am not prepared to say where
the blame lies, but, this terrible thing
is bearing down on this country and
the suffering can easily be foretold
before its certain realization comes
to pass. The railroads are in the
hands of their owners. The pay for
transportation is much higher than
ever before experienced in America.
The labor is paid extravagantly.
What’s the matter? We find our
selves—like a squirrel in Its cage—
always going around in a and
getting nowhere. From this day
henceforward the people who are
able to wield the axe or collect fuel
near the home should not waste one
idle minute. The thing is coming
down relentlessly upon us. Get up
and strike hard to get fuel.
STOP BUYING NON-ESSENTIALS
> It is plainly evident that people
buy useless things in greater pro
fusion than ever before. They pay
enormous prices for fine furniture
and fine autos when a plainer and
cheaper make would render thern en
tirely as comfortable.
It is surprising that the populace
do not understand that this era
of spendthrift extravagance must
change. It is like the swing of a
clock pendulum. It always goes back
after a long sweep forward. A
feast generally precedes a famine;
sometimes a panic arrives.
Common sense would indicate this
necessity for saving, when there is
so much that could be saved with
out even discomfort, and the cash
deposit could be invested to signal
advantage, with the comfort of know
ing that nothing has been wasted or
thrown away foolishly. I notice the
craving of young children to spend
money. They always expect the dime
for an ice cream cone whenever they
are dressed and start downtown.
They must spend something to feel
satisfied in the outing.
This is an unhealthy craving. It
fixes a habit that is sure to become
embarrassing, for it gro-vys with its
growth and fastens its claws into a
constant habit for spending.
War has left certain trails wher
ever war has prevailed. Among
these trails is the reckless habit of
making way with money.

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE*!
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Dear Miss Meredith: —The advice
I am asking is very different from
any I have seen in The Journal.
I am a young college girl, seventeen
years old and am tall and slender.
I am not in the least conceited, but
everyone says I am really beautiful
and attractive. But whenever a party
is given here. It seems that every
one Is invited except me. In fact,
everyone slights me. It is not be
cause my family is poor, because we
are not, and I have lots of pretty
clothes. But as I said, I know I
am not vain nor conceited, but I am
telling you this in order for you to
tell me just what to do. I want to
go to another place to live but we
just stay on here. Mother and I
have talked about the younger set
slighting me, but she says just wait
and I’ll have a good time “some
time,’’ but I want it now, while I.
too, am young.
Could you please advise me what
to do? Please print this as soon as
possible. Thanking you just heaps.
Print in the Tri-Weekly Journal.
“LONELY MARIE.”
I think the main trou
ble which exists is jeal
ousy. The young people are jeal
ous of you. But perhaps you are
greatly to blame. You must try
and be less self-conscious. Girls
are rather inclined to pettiness,
and they see that you are pretty
and attractive. to the boys, and
unless you make yourself gra
cious and charming to them, and
sincere in your regard for them,
you will always be unpopular.
Win the girls first, and when
you do that the men will folldw
like sheep. Become interested
in your sex, and you will be
successful.
Here comes a boy for some advice
not concerning love affairs. I want
you to inform me where I can get a
place as stage actor. Your best ad
vice will be appreciated.
MANILA.
Being an actor is ‘some
job.” I cannot tell you how
to get upon the stage. The only
way, it seems, you will have to
go to a place where they produce
plays, like New York, Chicago,
or California. Go to the office
of a well known producer, let him
question you as to your ability
and give you a trial. In the
meantime you might have to get
a real job and work in order to
live. One must have real ability
to become a good actor. The
market ds overflowing with trash
now. There are no producers of
plays in Atlanta.
Dear Madam: Sometime ago a
letter was sent to you signed by
Alma Matthews. There were some
things in that letter that were ridi
culous, things I am innocent of.
Some one wrote it and signed my
name to it. If you can find that
letter and send it to me, I will pay
you well. It was written by a cou
sin of mine. I wish you would say
in your next issue that the letter
published in your column with Alma
Matthews name signed to it was
not written by her and meanwhile
will you please try and find that let
ter. . It will help to re-establish my
good name.
Yours very truly,
t MMk.
I am truly sorry there is a
person so lacking in principle
or decency, who would know
ingly try to destroy another’s
character or good name. As
Shakespeare said, “He who steals
’my purse steals trash, but he
who filches from me my good
name takes that which enriches
him not, but leaves me poor in
deed.” The man, woman, boy or
girl who would stoop to do a thing
like that is too degraded to mix
with other people. I am sorry
I am unable to return your let
ter, as all letters are destroyed
by me after they are answered.
I haven’t any way of knowing
when I receive a letter with a
persons name signed to it,
whether they are the real ones
or not. But I hope the readers
of the Mary Meredith column
will not try to hurt one another
by playing pranks of this kind.
It is very dangerous, and it is
blackmail, and of course every
one knows that is a prison of
fense.
