NewYear A despach from Paris, says:--- France ays:-France began the new year with far greater confidence than the last. This is in spite of formidable handicaps. such as the balance of trade running against her at the rate of about 1, 500,000,000 francs a month, about 50 per cent. depreciation of the exchange value of the franc and the consequent difficulty of procuring raw materials and machines urgently needed for reconstruction. France's renewed confidence is derived directly froni the result of the recent elections. These are re- garded here as having definitely stab- ilized internal politics, ended all danger of revolutionary agitation for I some time to come and brought about a betteratttude by eapital and :labor toward the immense effort be- fore France. Economists and financiers who have. weighed all the elements of the situation admit that Fraince still is in. a most difficult situation, but see' indications of great improvement be- fore the end of another year. How to Make Scrapple. Scrapple is made of the waste pieces of meat, the trimmings cf the hams and shoulders, the head, the heart, a small piece of the liver, and the skins from the lard and sausage meat. The ears, carefully cleansed and the cartilage, removed, maybe used. The head is 'split between the jaws, and, after the tongue is taken out, .is split the other way. Cut off the snout, re- move the jaw and nasal cavities. Put the head meat and skins into the boiler with water to cover :them, the rest of the meat following fifteen min- utes later. Boil until the meat leaves. the bones, Chop it fine, strain the li- quor and add to it enough water to make five parts liquid to three of meat. Set the liquid to boiling, stir- ring in cornmeal to make a moderately thick mush, stirring all the time. 'Or half cornmeal and half 'buckwheat - meal may be used. Then put in the meat, mixing thoroughly, and season to taste with salt,- red and .black pep- per, and either sage, sweet marjoram or thyme, which ever flavor you pre- fer. The . -cornmeal should be fine, made of new torn, .well "dried before grinding, and there. should beabout as much of it as of the meat. Put the scrapple away in pans in a cold place. To cook, cut the scrapple ,into slices, lay in a•:pan containing hot fat and fry quickly until brown. Fanners can not cope with city peo- pie ,in the struggle for a square deal with an. inadequate and antiquated country school "system. Education is one - of the principal factors in this struggle.

A -despatch from London says: -A threatening situation exists in the trans-Caspia. where the Boisheviki claim that they have occupied Djebel station, 80 miles east of Kraenovodis, in their advance toward that to*n. Red reinforcements continue to ar- rive in he Meny region of Trans- Caspia from Central' Russia. This makes the menace along the Persian and Afghan borders critical.

Making and Canning Sausage, Use the tenderloins and all lean pieces of meat •cut off in trimming or shaping for sausage meat; also cut up a shoulder if needed. If the sau- sage meat seems to be rather poor, cut up a jowl. This mixed in will; make plenty of fat, and is also an ex- cellent xcellent way to utilize fat jowl, If you make .a large quantity, two or three jowls may be used to god advantage. Cut the meat into small ornarrow strips, wash nicely and run through the food chopper, cutting it quite fine. iSeason to taste with salt, black pep- per, e -per, red pepper and sage, working all in thoroughly. As to canning, we use the same method as for tomatoes, peaches and apples. Wash jars and tops clean. When ready to can, have a pan of real hot water, about two and one-half inches deep, sitting on the apron or edge of the range. Put the jar in sidewise, roll over and over, drain and then put back into the water again. IAlso put tops and rubbers into the hot water. You are now ready to be - glia *inn. Fry the ingsausage in small' cakes a little more than half done and pack plosely in the,.jars. When pars are full, put into eaoh about three table sponfuls of the hot grease, then but rubber on and screw toll on. tightly. Turn.the jar bottom -•upward one shelf in a cold place. This will cause the grease to run to the top, and when cold will make the jar 'air -tight or sealed. We have kept sausage by the above method until .Tune, and it was as sweetxis when first canned. When the jar is opened for use, the sausage will have to be fried 'a little more. - This thoroughly cooks it and makes it taete 111;4 like fresh sausage. 1n the Neer Future. •• Spy. � ha.t'a elle matter? 6, ,mild- od thepassenger on board the 'inter - Pellet express, as 11e ale -tame at the speed. iudieator.
