ABOUT THE WAR The late war news is little dif ferent from the past days since the Allies stopped and turned the enemy back. The fighting is in tense. Tho Americans and .the Allies are driving the enemy back —those who are not killed or cap tured. lint this does not mean that the war will end right soon. If the man power from America ami other sources can be placed iu the fighting as fast as is calcu lated on doing, it is hoped to end the war next year; but this is by no means certain. It is certain, however, that day by day the Allies are growing stronger on land and sea, while the enemy is growing weaker. General (now Mnrshal) Foch is showing himself more than a match in strategy against anything the Germans can put in the field. His licks are hard and effective. Tho Americnim linvo acquitted themselves at nil tiroes in n iiinii nor to innpiro tho hoarta of those nt homo with pride mid dotorinl nntion to do everything to aid the . fightherx to achieve victory.

I'.y $1 W irpni't l, Agent ill Bugar I'lnnt Co Operative Work between the Norlli Carolina Kxtcnaion Service and llio United Stiitcn Department of Agri culture. Tlio first requsito for making [good H,irii[) in good equipment, but j this need not necessarily lie ex-, pensive. Next to good equipment j tho maker must exercise the high- | est care, cleanliness ami good j judgment in handling th;« equip ment. The mm should never lie more , than one to two hours ahead of the evaporator and no more juice j should be extracted 011 any day than in ty be finished on the same day. Kaw juice, untreated by lime or chemicals, will ferment in a short time, making it unfit for ftifup." This is particularly true in warm weather. G#refnl filtering or straining of the juice is a necessity. There are a uuinber of chemical methods of purifying and clarifying tho juice, buL all of these are open to the objection that in tin- hands of tho inexperienced or careless un satisfactory results may follow. AM fi general thing, it is better that the small producer of simp should not employ chemical meth ods. Allowing the juice to come in contact with iron surfaces should be avoided as tar as pos sible. for iron tends to darken the , color of t he sirup. In the evaporating pan a layer of juice not over 1.1 to If inches deep should be carried at any time, and with care even a thin layer may be successfully carried, j A thin layer causes a quick evap oration and less color is developed when concent ruling to a sirup. | Deep boiling in it pan will have the same effect as in a kettle, a dark, bad-tasting sirup. Some makers bring much Of the sedi ment to tho top by adding to tliO| boiling liquid the white of an eggj or some whole, fresh, sweet milk. This causes the particles to rise to the top, where they may be re moved by skimming. Thequitu-! tity of egg or milk used matters but little if the liquid is weil skimmed. The boiling liquid should be thoroughly and constantly skim med from the time the first scum forms until the sirup has reached | the finishing point. There is no j hotter method of cleansing than this, whether artificial means liavy 1 been used or not. The skimmings are a good food for hogs, if chemi cals have not boon used, but too much must not he fed at first. To determine the finishing point is one of the most: importanti things for the sirup maker to learn. Most makers determine this by pouring sirtqi from 11 spoon and watching the last drops fall. If these separate from the edge of the spoon in broad thin sheets t lie sirup is ready to bo drawn olt. Some makers judge the finishing point l»y tho action and color of tlio boiling liquid, but this met hod is not always advisable. The only infallible methods of detenu ill-1- tioli are by the use of the thet momoter or the Ilatime hydrome ter. At sea level finished sirup will boil at, roughly speaking, 2M degrees (Fahr), while for every 500 feet above sea level the boil ing point is lowered one degree. At 2000 feet above sea level this point would be at-220 degrees ami at ."000 feel 21 $ degrees. In using the thermometer it, must not bo allowod to touch the sides or bot tom of tho pan. To describe tho hydrometer hero would take too much space, but for a finished sirup the reading on this instrument should be 38 de grees and over. A finished sirup will weigh not less tlwii 11} pounds to tin' gallon. The finished sirup should be quickly drawn from the fire and rapidly cooled. If careful si rain ing, sell ling and skimming of the juice and boiling liquid has been practiced, the product will ly need filtering Sorghum sirup can lie success ■ fully filtered through 11 iniii'l or > felt only when it is hot. A six inch bed of sharp sand or small gravel, carefully cleaned of all soluble matter, makes a very good , filter. Some makers use i> to S ! inches of excelsior or wood straw . for this purpose. The excelsior should be soaked in hot water to remove all soluble matter before being used. Any kind of filters ( should be carefully cleansed and I sterilized with hot water or steam before using a second time. Hirup should be put in its con tainers while hot. If it 's intend- I ed for market purposes a con ven r iont form of 1-onlaiuor is a quart, r two quart, or gallon tin can with •crew top. Quart bottles or stone or »'la*s jugs or jars may also be used.

Travis, lat© eh Hir udin of llio North Carolina cor i poration commission, a prominent ! lawyer and former member of the iNorth Carolina Legislature, was j arrested in Washington late Fri lay night, locked up in the police station and held for 16 hours. Mr. ' Travis was refused permission to 'communicate with his attorney or i his friends when he was arrested land was tlitis denied the privilege |of bail. When his friends learned of his arrest and called at the po lice station next morning, it was some hours before they wore al* j lowed to see him. In brief, Mr. Travis is accused of conspiring with three other I persons to make ft possible I one Leon Myer Green of New Vurk 'to obtain exemption under the ! draft law. The government al , leges Vho plan was to get certain 'contracts from the shipping bo*rd, ; whereupon Green was to be given employment by the* Perth Amboy Drydock Company, which would permit him to claim an "essential employment" and avoid military service. As soon as Mr. Travis' attorney, Mr. ]{. 11. McNeill of \V ashing I on, Representative Claude Ivitchiii aud other friends were permitted to see him, bond was promptly given in the sum of *5,000, Mr. Kitcliin becoming surety, and the hearing of the case set for the 14th. Mr. Travis claims that lie acted for the shipbuilding concern pure llyina legal capacity and knows 'nothing ol any conspiracy, lie ! was to get a fee on a business basis, he says, and the entire transaction was one of propriety between attorney and client. It !is understood investigations are still in progress concerning nego tiations for the contract with the emergency fleet corporation. Mr. I Travis was to receive a big fee 1 — | probably as high as sloo,ooo—lf the contracts, involving about I $40,000,000, went through It is said that while it is legal for an ' attorney to appear for a contrae- I tor to secure government cou j tracts, it is a violation of Federal ! law for the attorney to work for a contingent fee, and in this respect ' Mr. Travis may have violated the law. Mr. McNeill, Mr. Travis' attor n ey, says however, that Mr. Trav is' entire connection with the alleged shipbuilding contract aud the draft evasion charge were purely professional and entirely in keep ing with tho law, and that they will lie able to show the courts at first opportunity. Mr. Kitchiu, lifelong friend and associate of Mr. Travis, expresses entire con fidence iu his innocence. Mr. Travis said: . ■ "I.am not guilty of the charge made against me. I know nolli iritc h)poul inly plan to evade the draft law and that is the only charge contained in the warrant. I was engaged as an attorney by the I'ertli Amboy Drydoek Company to submit'to the emergency licet corporation its proposition for con tracts: for building ships. I drew up the papers. The proposition has not been accepted. 1 have been connected with t he company only since .1 tily 1. I 'Being a lawyer of experience I cannot understand the procedure which landed me in prison and deprived me of all my rights. I asked Department of Justice offi cials to permit mo to see my friends and arrange for my release, but that was denied. I shall fight this case to the end, for I am not guilty of any violation of law." Mr. Travis'alleged conspirators, K. J. Joseph and Leon Green, were arrested at the same time, being later released on bond. Creen, it is said, was formerly a Southern newspaper man, having I been employed iu this State and ; South Carolina.

A Necessary Campaign. * - "* News aud Observer. i If President Wilson were regu larly before the people for re election this year and were defeat ed his defeat would be a disaster to the cause of the Allies equal to the loss of an iinportaut battle on the western front. Only second itTimporlaiice as a political ©vent of world signilicance would be the defeat of Mt Wilson's party in the election oP'an opposition ma jority in either or both branches of Congress. Sneh a result would be heralded with great satisfac tion throughout the Central Em pires and would lie accepted by the enemy as a weakening of "the will to victory" on the part of the American people, and would in spire in the German people a new faith in their military leaders. It is not et}pugh that Republi cans are as loyally supporting the war program as Democrats. Mr. Wilson should have the support and control which can bo given b\ a majority of his own political faith in hoth branches of Con gress. With Democratic control in either house depending upon a thread so slender that the defeat of any one of the Democratic can-' didates in this Slate would prob ably break it, it becomes a matter of the highest importance that no fcteps should be left untaken to insure the election of a Democratic Senator and ten Democratic Con gressmen from this State. This is not a time when the op position party should expect or wish to make inroads on the party in power. It is not a lime when personal interests should be pushed upon the screen. . It id uot a time when independ ent candidates should air their views or alleged grievances before the public. Above all, it is not a time that will permit of anything in the na ture of submarine attacks upon those in authority. The Republicans have nomi nated practically a full ticket all the way down the line in this State. If there"is any convincing reason why John M. Moreliead should bo elected to supplant the tried and faithful F. M. Simmons in the State ir should be fully and fairly presented to the public for public consideration. Mr. mons has been one of the most faithful and the most resourceful of the President's supporters in the Settate. Ilis long serace, his high position' in the esteem and confidence of all his colleagues has permitted- him to shape majority concert of action in the Senate upon legislation of the greatest moment ever considered by an American Congress. Should the people of North Carolina be indif ferent to the suggestion of our Republican friends that he bo turned out and his high position bo made impotent by the election of Mr. Morehead at this crisis in world history or that the issue thus raised bo left to the hap hazard of a silent or bushwhack ing campaign ? The same reason and logic ap ply in less degree only to the ten Congressmen from this State. All of them are vitally needefcl in Con gress, not only because of their superior equipment of experience but because the defeat of any one of thein might easily mean the reorganization of the Houses by the party in opposition to the Presi dent,. The President should not bo subjected to this embarrass ment during this world crisis, which he is managing with unex ampled skill, nor should the peo ple of North Carolina be indif ferent to any suggestion that this be done. Our Republican friends'have entirely misconstructed the sug gestion of pur generous and pa triotic Governor. After they have challenged Democratic supremacy in every department of govern lifbnt possible in State and nation by ihe nomination of a Republi can candidate for practically every public office that is open to (lection this year, they theu sug gest that the issue be submitted to the people without public dis cussion. Public discussion should, as a matter of course, be in keeping with the dignity of those momenta ous times. Incidental and unim portant matters should not be crowded upon public attention, but it soeins to us there has never been a time when those in high authority could with more pro priety be asked to present to the people their views upon the great problems that have engaged their attention these recent years, and that are now ini(ieuding, or a time which called for more earnest ef fort upon the part of the people to maintain and support with in creased majorities those who have .BO conspicuously served the State and nation. In addition to a United States Senator and ten Congressmen to be elected in North Carolina in November there is a State General Assembly, a majority of our State i SupremeijCourt, *two members of the Corporation Commission, ten judges of our Superior Courts, twenty solicitors and a full county ticket in every cqjinty in the State. These are all matters worthy of our best attention and should not be left to accident or chance. ASK ANYONE WHO HAS USED IT. .

Successful Experiments Convince O* flclals That Substitutes Will Large ly Relieve Situation—Canning and Preserving May be Increased—For mulas to Bs Printed. Raleigh.—No actual hardships Is go ing to result In North Carolina from the acute shortage of sugar -which ex ists at this time and there Is no rea son at all why the Quantities of fruits that are canned and preserved should be lessened in any degree. This la the frankly expressed opinion of State Food Administrator Henry A. Page, Conservation Chairman John Paul Lucas and Mrs. Jane S. McKlmmon, Director of Home Economics for the Food Administration and Head of Home Demonstration activities in North Carolina. Experiments Encourage. Food Administration officials hare been greatly concerned over the sugar shortage, and still are (or that matter, but they have been greatly encou/ag "ed and relieved during the past few days by the marked success of experi ments that have been conducted by Mrs. McKlmmon and her wide-awake assistants in the use of cane syrup, sorghum, corn syrup, corn sugar and other procurable sugar substitutes. Mrs. McKlmmon and her forces are working over time on these tests and are preparing tried and proven for mulas and reclges which, with accom panying suggestions, will be printed by the Food Administration In the form of a bulletin or leaflet Jn the Im mediate future for distribution throughout North Carolina. The for mulas being prepared by Mrs. McKlm* mon will be verly largely used in other States also, Washington authorities being keenly Interested In them and recognizing the splendid ability of Mrs. McKlmmon's organization in thla lin* of work.

Peaches, ap ples, pears, berries, etc., which are de sired for marmalade, jelly, jam or preserves, may T>e canned now and made into the ultimate product weeka or months from now when. If sugar la oot available, there will certainly be available a considerable quantity of cane syrup, corn syrup, corn sugar, sorghum, or other substitute, j Experiments have developed the , fact that for best results different sub stitutes must be used for difforent fruits or different products and the tests are for the purpose of deter mining which substitutes may be moat satisfactorily used in each kind of fruit Mrs. M.
