MAKING GRAPE JUICE
Here are three napes for making
grape juice which are reememeaded
by the C0111511nler Section, Marketing
Service, Dominion Department of
Agriculture. The first and seeond re•
eipes make a concentrated juice
which must be diluted before eerving.
With the third method considerable
water is used and as a result the
juice is ready to serve atter strain-
ing. Incideatally, more jars are re-
quired in making grape juice this
way, but the flavour and colour oE
the juice is like fresh emit, For var-
iety's sake, blue, green and red
grapes may be used to make three
different coloured juices,
Grape Juice (Method 1)
• Wash and crush grapes. Heat
slowly either over low fire or in oveu
at 200 degrees F. for 10 initiates. If
over fire, do not allow to boil. Drain
over night. To each cup juice add
eup sugar. Boil until sugar is dist
s'olved. Pour into sterilized jars, Part-
ially seal and sterilize 5 minutes.
Grape Juice (Method 2)
(Without sugar)
Brush grapes. Allow 1, pint water
to 8 quarts grapes. Place kettle in
the oven at 2110 degrees le or ever
another kettle with boiling water for
25 minutes. Strain through a Jelly
bag over night. Lei juice stand 3
hours after bag is removed. Pour
juice carefully into sterilized jars. lo"
ing careful not to stir up the otellut-
ent. Partially seal. Sterilize 30 min•
Mee 111 water Mull or 35 minutes in
the oven at 275 degrees F. Seal.
If sweet juice ie deeired, allow
cup sugar to 1 cup juice. Add to juice
after dripping. Bring to boiling 2101111
to dissolve sugur and proceed as
above,
In using the above methods a eve,
ond grade juke may be obtained by
adding 2 quarts water to drained
pulp, boiling slowly 20 minutes, Drip
and sterilize as for first extrument.
Grape Juice (Method 3)
1 quart grapes
1 cup sugar
Boiling/Nater
Wash the grapes and remove them
rront the stem. Put them in clean,
hot, sierilizetl, one -quart jar. Add
sugar and boiling water to fill the
jar to overflowing. Seal and etore
there 111 a cool place. The juice is
ready to use in three months.

Mussolini shouts that the Mediter-
ranean must again. booms "Our
Sea" as the old Romans called it,
and that Italy can never be independ-
ent while Britain holds Gibraltar
and the Suez Canal, Nevertheless,
Britain made no effort to prevent
Italian war and troopships going
through the canal in recent years to
the conquest of Abyssinia!
Britain thus faithfully observed her
signature to the terms of the Inter-
national Convention of 1/188 wherein
Britain, France, Italy, Russia and Ger-
many agreed: -The canal is to re -
Main open in time of War as a free
passage even to the ships of war of
belligerents..." always provided that
uo act ensue whereby the canal shall
be olistructed, and no act of hostility
shall be committed in the eanal or
near its ports of entrY.
In fact the only thing that prevents

William Mackenzie of Toronto. Often
a bitter wind blows across the canal
filled with the sting of the blowing
sand. That way went the Children
of Israel, fleeing from Pharaoh's
chariots.
It is noteworthy that Italy, for all
her loud talking, purchased only
one-half of one per cent. of the stock
in the Suez Canal Company when it
was formed; the French public buy-
ing more than fifty per cent of the
shares. It is a fact that Britain was
cold to the idea of a canal, to start
with. and made no investment, the
astute Disraeli remedied this mistake
by purchasing on behalf 01 1110 British
government the huge block of shares
which the French had been obliged
to give the Khedive of a Turkey -
controlled Egypt for right of way and
labor. Britain paid some $20,000.000
for her shares which to -day are worth
e•bout $300,000,000. At the present
moment the British government owns
seven -sixteenths of the canal shares.
For purposes of administration the
Suez Cella' Company hue been pre-
dominantly French, Its hoard of dir-

Though the Suez Canal has confer,

tion that treats the ships of all na-
tions alike, it is a slight exaggeration
to say that it is Britain's life line to
the East. states a British writer in
the London Sphere. Even lit normal
times a considerable proportion of
foodstuffs bound to Britain from In-
dia, China and the East Indies are
shipped via the old Cape of Good
Hope route to save canal dues. Mod,
ern machinery and huge freighters
have 'set up new standards, .And
against the extra •cost in fuel and
wages. etc., of a longer route one
saves the toll charges of 5 shillings
and 9 pence on every ton in laden
ships.
The distance betweenLondon and
Sydney by the Suez route- is 11,534
miles. by the Cape 12,413 miles and
by the Panama Canal 12.419 miles.
From London to Hong Kong the dis-
tances are respectively 9,682. 13,21e8
and 14,018 miles. But there is a
much greater difference between
Loudon -and Botebay-6,273 miles
Suez and 10.712 miles by the Cape:
and London and Bushire where the
figeres are 0,415 and 11.712 miles re•
spectively.
In the latter cases the extra cost
of fuel and ship operation anti loss of
time would be very serious. And

not propose to be robbed nf some
thing she has paid for. The following
tonnages shed some light on the

thing is that the freight t011utlai
