Department of Agriculture A the canning teuon advance, the pantry thelvea an plllnf up their promise for the winter. Home made Jelllea, Jams, preserve, and fruit butters are taking their piece alongside the cans and Jar of fruits and vegetables that will be the main supply. Nor are these sweet an ex pensive luxury. Fruits the farm and garden do not furnish can often be had for the gathering wild berries or wild grapes, for instance. There Is many a lone plum tree In a small back yard that does Its useful part. Apples and crsbapples are usually cheap and what wonderful Jelly they make! It is true that Jellies are usually only a small part of a meal, but a little Jelly with the breakfast toast or the supper biscuit, with the dinner meat, with cheese, or dotting the top of a bread pudding or a custard, to say nothing of the Jelly sandwich In Billy's lunch these are waya of us ing Jelly to make dull meals look far more attractive and also taste much better. jelly-making, however, calls for care, says the Bueau of Home Econ omics of the U. 8. Department of Ag riculture. As everybody knows, you cook the fruit In a given amount of water, extract the Juice, add augar, and then evaporate, or "boll down" the mixture to a certain consistency. But that's not all of the story. Suc cess depends upon the kind, the qual ity, and the condition of the fruit, and upon the presence, In right pro portions, of three substances name ly, the acid and pectin that are In the Juice, and the sugar that Is add ed. Pectin Is a substance that forms in the pulp of many fruits as they ripen. It causes cooked fruit to thicken and "Jell." The best fruits for Jelly-making are those that are tart and rich In pectin as are cur rants, red and black raspberries, blackberries, gooseberries, wild goose plums, wild grspes, Concord grapes, crabapplea, winter apples such as wlnesap and Ben Davis, quinces and cranberries. Nowadays, however, pectin extract can be added to the Juice, and Jelly can be made from many fruits which formerly were not used because they would not "Jell." As guides to successful Jelly-making, the Bureau of Home Economics offers the following suggestions: Select firm fruit slightly underripe. Overripe fruits are likely to give trouble In Jelly making. Wash all fruit thoroughly and dis card any damaged parts. Wash the berries quickly and with care. Leave currants on their stems, and leave the skins on grapes and plums. Re move stems and blossom ends from apples and quinces and cut the fruit Into pieces, but do not remove cores or skins. Prepare small lots of fruit at a time, and carry the process through piomptly. Cook the fruit In a speci fied quantity of water, according to the kind of fruit. Excess water has to be cooked out and this results In overcooking the fruit. Apples, crab apples, quinces and wild grapes need 1 cup of water to the pound of fruit, or water to cover. Currants and Concord grapes need only 14 cup of water, or none, gooseberries need !4 cup, blackberries and black rasp berries A cup If the fruit Is firm, none If the fruit Is soft. Red rasp berries need no water, cranberries on the other hand need 3 cups. Use a broad, flat-bottomed kettle, to get concentrated Juice quickly, and stir to prevent scorching. Crush soft fruits to stsrt the flow of Juloe. Count time only after the fruit begins to boll. Berries, currants and grapes need 5 to 10 minutes to cook soft; apples and quinces need about 35 to 30 minutes all depending on the firmness of the fruit. Pour the hot cooked fruit at once Into a Jelly bag of canton flannel or of two or three thicknesses of good quality cheesecloth. Let the Juice drip out; do not squeeze the bag. When the drops are few and far be tween press the bag lightly to stsrt the flow again. Some fruits, such as currant nd crabapples, are so rich In Jelly mak ing power that two extractions of Juice can be made from the fruit pomace. As soon ss Juice cesses to drip from the pomace after the first cooking, turn it back Into the kettle, barely cover with water, con again, and extract the Juice exactly as the first time. Some Jelly mskers mix the fruit Juice of the first and second extractions and make It Into Jelly. Other prefer to keep the two ex- ' tractions separate and make Jelly j from each lot. If all the Juice has good color and strong Jelly making pewer there lsa little choice. ! Use granulated white sugar, and make up 6 to 8 cups of Juice Into i Jelly at a time. This will make 12 i to 14 glasses of Jelly, a quantity which Is convenient to handle and ' which bolls down quickly to the Jelly- j lng stage. Because of the short cook- i lng It retains the fresh fruit flavor and color and makes Jelly of the best tprture. j Measure sugar and Juice accurately and usci the following proportions for ' the given fruit; Crabapples, currants, . gooseberries, and Wild grapes, 1 cup of sugar 'to 1 cup Juice. Apples, ! blackberries, black raspberries, cran- j berries, wild goose plums, quinces 'and red raspberries, cup of sugar j to 1 cup of Juice. Concord grapes take . to 1 cup of auger , to 1 cup of Juice. I To boll down for the Jelly test, hest the fruit Juice and sugar quickly j to boiling, again using a large flat bottomed kettle that permit rapid evaporation. Stir only until the sugar 1 Is dissolved, no more. Boll rapidly until the Jelly test la reached, for this test, dip a Isrge spoon Into the boiling sirup, and lift up the spoon so that the sirup runs off the side. As the sirup cooks down It reaches a stage when It no longer runs olf the spoon In a steady stream, but separates Into two dis tinct line of drips, which "sheet" together. Stop the cooking, as soon as the boiling give thl "sheeting off" teat. Let the hot sirup stand In the kettle while lifting clean Jelly glasses from boiling water. Then klm ott the film from the hot Jelly, and pour into the hot glares carefully so that the jelly dees r.ot splash and doe not drip on the rim. Let the glasses of Jelly stand until set for 12 hour or longer. When the Jelly Is firm and well et, pour melted paraffin over the top and rotate the glass In the hand so that the hot paraffin run up to the rim to form a good seal. Cover and label with name of fruit and date of making, and store In a cool, dry place. The fruit- pomace remaining after the Juice has been extracted for Jelly can ortentlmes be made into fruit butter. Press the pomace through a fine sieve, add sugar and spice to taste, cook until thick, and atlr con stantly. Seal and store In sterilized Jsrs.

Marianne controls pollov to a certain extent in these small nations. The experts here have little hope that an effective agreement can be reached. At least special European marketing privileges must be given to the objectors. There was nothing sudden about State Secretary Hull deciding to re turn to Washington. Or about Prof, Moley going abroad. That switch had been planned for weeks on the inside, as forecast In this column. When it came the rumors naturally started that Hull was to retire. There will be nothing to them until null haa decided he is fed up. The situation has not changed except that the public knows more about It. Hull continues to be the International front man; Moley the nationalist background.. Mr. Roosevelt has his mind fixed on the next three steps. You will probably see them work out in the following order: 1 Delay of currency stabilization, tariff reform and other Internation al panaceas. 2 Concentration on a two-point test program at home, the two points being the Industrial control setup and the farm control bill. 3 withholding auch Inflationary mores as dollar revaluation for at least two months to see the No. 3 step works out. This la the definite program now being passed around the inner circle. It is meeting with acclaim. The boys at the top privately be lieve there Is a very good chance that the Industrial control plan will work out well. They are doubtful about the farm program. They will not say fo publicly because they do not want to embarrass the setup but that Is their firm private convict lot,. They aee the industrial regime re distributing the national Income. That sounds like something Huey Long advocates, but It Is not. It means only that the short hour day and work week with limited profits and trade agreements will spread the purchasing power to larger numbers Some of Mr. Roosevelt's trusted Economists privately believe we may pull out without using the present program to Its fullest. Business gene rates new business. The economic snowball gets larger going uphill as well aa It did going down. Every man going back to work helps put five other men to work when he spends his new salary. That is probably an optimistic view. The general Inner supposition is that something like revaluation of the dol lar will be needed later. You will know in about two months. How "Brain Trust" Got Name Told by Scribe By WALTER T. BROWN ALBANY. N. Y.. June 39 AP) The famous Roosevelt "brain trust" acquires an International flavor ; through the appearance of Raymond i Moley at the London world economic 1 conference. The trade mark of the ; small group of the president's econ omic advisers crossed to Europe with j the assistant secretary of state who la "head man" of the "brain trust." How did this group become known aa the "brain trust?" Here Is the answer, and I believe this la the first time It has been told. James H. Kleran of the New York Times staff first designated Moley. A A. Berle. Rex O. Tugwell. Colonel Louis McHenry Howe, Brig. General Hugh Johnson. Charles W. Taussig and others the "brains trust." As the designation was picked up by other newsmen, magazine writers and commentators of all kinds It became a singular instead of a plural "trust." Kleran. who had traveled with Mr. Roosevelt several yeaia, with other writers Including thla correspondent, was spending the week end at Hyde Park. The then New York governor was at his Hudson river estate. It was the last week In July and Mr. Roosevelt was preparing his cam paign data. Moley, Tugwell and Berle went to Hyde Park to jve the candi date Information for the three major speeches to be delivered In August at Columbus, Ohio; Sea Girt, N. J., and Bridgeport, Conn. At a Saturday press conference, Mr. Roosevelt casually remarked that the Columbia professors were his guests. "The Brains Trust?" Kleran re marked. Roosevelt laughed. The next day Kleran had launched the famous trade mark. One or two of the Roosevelt advisers did not laugh at the designation. One was outspoken in his anger. The New York governor was highly amused by the mild etorm among his camp followers.

Healthy nerves are essential if a player is going to be successful in maintain ing his speed, endurance, and the psychology of victory. As a steady smoker, I find that cigarettes vary a lot in their effect upon the nerves. I have tried all the other popular brands, but for years I have smoked Camels. Because of their extraordinary mildness I know that I can smoke Camels as freely as I wish and still have healthy nerves." o Steady smokers turn to Camels because the costlier tobaccos in Camels never tire the taste never get on the nerves. Your taste and your nerves will confirm this. Start smoking Camels today and prove It for yourself. It is more fun to know.
