BRMSH AIRMEN LAND IN DENMARK On Return from I Zeppelin Sheds hi Schleswig. -- Copenhagee, July 21. -Details have reached here of the attack by the British airmen on Schleswig, one of the most important stations for air at- tacks on England. The machines took the direction of Tondern at about 4 °clock • in the morning, &ad returned betweene-and 7 o'clock at tremendous speed. Some Gepnan, warships were seen off the coast at rthe same time. They fired on the British .machines, airplanes. The fight istopped at the south of the Marne and toward the vicinity of .Rheims have been blotted -- out under -the counter-attacks of -the Americans, French, British and Ita-. liana. Chateau Thierry, which repres- ents the point in the battle•.lpse where . the Germans-. had driven their wedge.. nearest .to.

' Large .num- hers num-bers of prisoners, were taken, and the machine guns of the allied troops lit- erally mowed down the Germans who endeavored to stay their progress. West of Rheims, where the British were engaged yesterday, the present line leaves the.enemy a strip of about four miles deep at the greatest depth on a front of about thirteen miles in the Marne valley. Thi•e is all he has to show for the big offensive of July 15.

The Canada Food board ' lhaa leaned regulations governing the of sugar by public eating -places, `., .candy manufacturers, ice-cream menu- ._ facturers, bakers, confectioners,. etc., and these have resulted in an aggre- gate saving of a very large quantity. This saving has been increased by voluntary economies in private homes. The ' Anti -Hoarding Order providing limitations on holdings of sugar also has been effective: The Food Board . has been able to arrange for a number of ships to carry raw sugar to Canada. Tide cumulative effect of all these measures is that a sufficient supply for the canning and preserving season .__seems now to be assured. - In order that the -maximum use ay be ?nmade of our fruit crop this year in all parts of Canada, housewives are asked.: to use no larger proportion of. eager than is needed for preserving land jam -making. The recipes in this article have been prepared by experts, having in mind the use of those pro- - portions of sugar which will give the beet results. No more sugar is re- quired than the amounts stated lathe recipes given below. • - Strawberry Jam. -8 lbs. strawber- ries, 6 lbs. sugar. Mia the strawber- _: ries and sugar ina kettle and let them stand over night In the morn- ing set the kettle ,over the fire on an asbestos mat, and bring the contents slowly to a boil. , Do not stir the fruit any'rnore than is absolutely necessary. _Boil gently without stirring until it is sufficiently thick and then put it away' in eterile jars. urrant Jelly. -4 lbs. currant juice;'' 2 Ibs. sugar. • Roil the currant juice without the sugar -about 10 minutes,! or until the quantity is reduced. Heat • the sugar in the ovenand add when very .hot to the liquid, so that the temperature will not be greatly reduc- ed. When all. is dissolved, bring;toy, boil again, and continue from three -• ''•to five minutes. Teat, and when done remove and put away in unsealed jars. When cool, seal with melted paraffin. Apple and Plum Jam. --4 lbs. crab apples; 4 lbs. plums, 6 lbs. sugar. Cut • JAM MAKING. to escape. Add no' water. Bring to. a, boil, stirring occasionally to endure that all the fruit is being cooked, and to prevent burning.. Cook without sugar until the quantity is reduced and the -fruit is all broken. The time will vary with the quality of the fruit. Heat the sugar in the oven 'and add to the fruit, stirring until it is all dis- solved. Then boil without stirring from three to five minutes. Remove from th„Z,fire and put into .sterile jars, glasses or stone crocks. Seal when cold, by pouring melted paraffin over the top. In making Black Currant Jain, the sugar must not be boiled from the beginning with the fruit; as in some jams; otherwise -the currants will become hard and unpalatable. Little Points in Canning. __ Keep the water at a, jumping boil and do not allow the fire to .die down for an instant- while cans are in the canner,. Keep the cover on the canner dur- ing, .every moment of the ,processing time. Steam plays a large part in cooking the contents of the can. .Greens or green vegetables are most satisfactorily blanched in steam instead of hot water. Use a steam cooker or, put the products in a colan- der and set them over a vessel of boil- ing water, covered tightly. To prevent bleaching or darkening of products packed in glaas,jars, wrap jars in paper. Examine jars and cans occasionally during the summer to detect any sign of fermentation, leaking, or swelling. The flavor ie often injured by let- ting peeled fruit stand too long be- fore cooking. Prepare at one -tine . • .m. ff o� Medid>iea.

In several British industries, • native raw material, are now being utilized where, before the war such materials were imported . from - the • . continent simply because- the manufacturer did not happen to know that ample sup- plies of the.:aame were at . his very door, a fact of which he would have been informed had he conaulted com- petent Scientific' authorities. This is well illustrated. in the case of' one of the largest steel corporations of Eng- land which, until -1914, had been im- porting from Austria, through a Ger- man -firm, a certain material for -lining its converters. When war was de- clared it -congratulated -itself on the fact that it had a two years' supply on hand. As time were on; however, and the supply .diminished. compla- cency gave place to anxiety Finally,. the directors decided to call- on scien- tific advice. They were referred to the geologists who.informed them that a bountiful supply of the material in question was available tn-the immed- iate vicinity of their own ptant.The information was acted upon. a shaft was. sunk at no great' • distance from their furnaces,- and, as a result, the immediately. In seasoning it should be kept in mind that moat vegetables. as well eel meat., are injured in flavor by an excessive use of salt in the Banning process: A little salt is very palata- ble. but it is better to add no salt' in canning than to use too much., It can be added to suit the taste when the canned products are served: Mold may develop on canned goods if the seal is defective, -if after steri- lizing the tops are removed. from the jars to replace the rubber. rings, ands if the jars are kept in- a damp place where the rubbers may • decompose. Success in canning depends upon: 1. Fresh fruit and vegetables. 2. Perfect fruit and vegetables: 3. Good jar bands. . 4. Airtight lids. -5. All water must be boiling vitt-. lently. • . . • 6.
