LOAN WORKERS
To ail Liberty Loan workers of the
Woman's Committee of Jackson
County: Official information has
leen received that Jackson count yV
alio ment for the Fourth Liberty
LOan is $260,000. " ,
This is a bit disheartening, I know,
but after all it is onlv $20.00; per
capita. Oh a basis of five tor the
idiiiily this only means a $100,00
bond in every household. Certainly
iii .f does not seem impossible
Ladies, our task is sett-it must
be performed. Not only our Gov
ernment but our boys on the battle
front front are relying on us, to aof
omplish'it. ,
I look onnir Liberty Loan work
very much as I imagine these sol
uiers look upon their work in France,
ixo doubt the mighty rush of Ger
m ms looks appalling to them, but
!o they falter? No, they stop for
nothing and we must keep pace
with them.
Let us picture our allotment as
a rush of the Huns and determine
to meet it. With this view, no al
lotment is impossible.
Yours for the Fourth Liberty Loan,
Mrs, E. L. McKee;
Chairman.

Citizens o f Jackson County:
Many of yea are. not doing your

Don't wait for a solicitor to come
to see you, as, they have their, hands

it is a smitll souled man .who re
fuses to buy just because he has
not got the' money in hand. If you
can raise the first payment, your
Lank will help you take care of
your other payments, if you should
fail-to raise the payments just when
due.
if you have the desire to buy,
tnere is a way and ninety per cent
0f the excuses that are made are

you and your ability.
Our people appear to be patriotic

APPLE SYRUP OR CONCENTRATED CIDER
Boiled down cider gives a product
with a decided acid flavor; to re
move this, it is necessary to add
carbonate or milk of lime to the
cider.
Method of making Apple Syrup.
To make one gallon of syrup, it is
necessary to hav6 seven gallons of
apple cider. Stir i ito this five
ounces of powdered calcium carbon
ate (carbonate of lime) obtainable
at drug stores in the form of precip
itated chalk or powdered marble
dust. Heat the cider and allow to
boil for a few minutes. As the cider
will foam slightly, it is necessary to
use a vessel at least onethird larger
than the volume of cider. Pour
the cider, after boiling, into glass
vessels, preferably half gaHon fruit
jars, which permit the condition of
iuc uquiu iu sei uuiu perieciiy ciear.
This will take several hours. When
the liquid is perfectly clear and
shows a "distinct 'aedimftnt at the
bottom.entlv nour off the dear
portion lntO a preserving kettle
fillind th ketrle nniv nne.thirH fnii
to allow boiling.
Add to the clear
liquid a. level teaspoonful of the
carbonate of lime, stirring thorough
ly. Allow the liquid to boil rapidly
until it is reduced to one gallon, or
one-seventh of the original volume.
Test the liquid by cooling a small
portion rapidly and cease cooking
when it has reached the consistency
of maple syrup. I he ami is to
have a thin syrup rather than one
that will candy.
Pour into sterilized bottles or jars,
set the vessels into buckets or tubs
of hot water, to alLw the syrup to
cool slowly; this is very important
if a clear product is desired. Afire
less cooker or wash boiler is good to
do this cooling. When the syrup
has cooled to room temperature, a
white sediment will be seen in the
bottom of jars. This is a harmless
compound formed from the lime
and the acid of the apples. Pour
off the clear syrup into a kettle and
heat to neany boiling, pour into
sterilized bottles; seal air tight.
The above directions were copied
from Successful Canning and Pre-
serving, by Miss Ola Powell, U. S.
Department of Agriculture, Assist
ant in Home Demonstration Work.
Thousands of bushels of 'apples
are going to waste iu Western North
Carolina. The housekeepers have
dried and canned allv summer and
the farmer has sold all he has had
labor ancLtime to gather. The apple
crop was a failure in the Central
and Eastern parts. of the State ai.d
the , housekeepers are asking for
names of Western farmers who have
aDDlesto sell, lne farmers art
anxious to dispose of the surplus,
but say that barrels are scarce and
expensive, being from 75c to $1.00
each. One farmer said that h
wou'd sell his apples for Ji5c per
bushel if the purchaser would come
and pick them up and carry them
away.
- In view of the shortage, of sugar,
the "directions above should prove of
