PEACE WANTED
The answers of the central powers
to the proposal for peace made by
Pope Benedict, are not surprising.
It was pretty well understood all
along that the pope's suggestion was
Inspired In central Europe. The
whole move Is a play to prepare the
home people of those nation,! for a
step toward peace without the ac
complishments of the alms which
their governments have repeatedly
stated must be attained before pea e
was possible.
The kaiser knows that the tide of
war has turned. His government re
alizes that there Is now arrayed
against them a combination of de
termined peoples who can never' be
conquered. To them It Is a question
of obtaining the best possible peace
terms and as quickly as can be done
without Jeopardizing the mainten
ance of power by the present dynas
ties. .
Both in man power and banking
credits, the central powers are
nearing' the end of their resources;
and realize It. With the United
States throwing Into the balance
tanking resources nearly equal to
the combined reserves of all other
belligerent countries, Germany sees
nothing but failure ahead. With
her, It Is a question -whether that
end shall mean utter ruin with a
democratic Germany, or a peace
which will save to the Hohenzol-
lerns a united nation still able to
be a serious competitor In Interna
tional affairs.
The diver campaign Is not pro
ducing the expected results. As ship
building by the allies is rapidly on
the increase, the submarine toll Is
weekly showing a decrease. Ger
many wants peace; and from now on
her internal policies will be marked
by adroit attempts to prepare her
people for the inevitable result and
to keep them In a mood that will
permit the holding of a firm hand by
the present military bureaucracy.
Austria Is probably in worse case
than Germany. There is no attempt
on the part of the government to
disguise the fact that she wants
peace. She is facing national dis
ruption. An early peace Is her only
salvation. Her people ' are begin
ning to realize that she Is playing
the part of a cat's paw for Germany.
So long as the central powers
cling to the ambitions of their pres
ent rulers, the thing most calcu
lated to bring peace is frequent
sledge-hammer blows by the armies
' of the allies, such as Halg's men in
flicted last Friday near Ypres. Ger
man plotting and hypocrlcy may
succeed In deceiving her own peo
ple, but never the governments ar
rayed against her In a struggle for
world-wide democracy. .

the homes of Josephine county these

the motto of the day to "Do Your

knitting. The order for 1K0 sets or
five pieces each to be knitted by the
good women of the local Red Cross
chapter, means millions upon mil
lions of thrusts of the knitting
needles; and the work Is under way.
There is not a woman In the county
who cannot spare a few minutes of
oa h day to "Do Her Knit."

loan campaign.

that every scout leader give every
boy scout' an opportunity to take a
definite part In this practical method
of giving expression to his second
obligation of service to our coun

will take no part in the canvass un
til the last week, when they make a

MAKE APPLE BUTTER
AND SAVE EOOD BILL
Washington, Sept. 14. -At a final
drive on fruit preserving the United
Slates department of agriculture
urg the waking of home made
fruit butters , -,
Various fruit butlers recommend
ed are apple butler with rider, ap
ple butter without rider, apple but
ter with grape Juice, apple butter
with lemons, pear butter, peach but
ter, plum butter, and Garfield but
ter made with plums and peaches.
With the exception of a good pre
serving kettle very little equipment
Is needed for the preparation of such
butter.
There Is no better way to use good
a i li'i, says the department, than to
make them Into butter. The peeled
nml sliced apples may be cooked In
the boiled, cider or they may be first
made Into apple sauce which Is then
cooked In elder. It usually takes
about equal quantities of sweet cl
der and sliced apples to make but
ter of the right consistency. In
other words. 2 gallons of sweet elder
shuold he boiled down to I gallon.
and 2 gallons of the prepared apples
sh.mld be niMed to It either un
cooked or as apple sauce. Tho to
essentials of good apple butter are
loii'4 slow cooking- from 4 to
hours and frequont stirring. If
sugar Is used, It should be added af
ter the cooking Is about two-thirds
doile. About 1 pound of sugar Is
the usual proportion for each gal
lon of apple butter, but more or leas
n.ay be used to suit the taste. The
butler may be s;ilccd with cinnamon,
cloves and allspice, or with any one
of the three, the spices being stirred
in when tho cooking Is finished.
While still bulling hot tho butter
should be packed In storlll.ed glass
receptacles, or In stone Jars, wllh
thorough precautions ngalnst spo'!
Ins wllh any other preserves.
illiout Cliler
Good apple butter nicy he iiiude
without elder. In ; his ei.se enough
water Is added to niako a thin ap
ple suuee. Ilrown sugar rather than
white sugar Is ordinarily used. If a.
grape flavor Is desired, It may be ob-j
tallied by the use of grnpe Juice In,
tho proportion of one pound to each;
gallon of the peeled and sliced BP-!
riles. There should also be added a.
cup of brown sugar and Vi tnaspoon
ful salt. When the desired thick
ness Is obtained, 1 teaHpoonful cin
namon Is stirred in.
Pear butter Is made like apple
butter without the elder.
