I might say one receipe will Qnawer for al! kinds of small fruits where sugar ts used, and one where ft is not. Also one, in like manner for the large fruits. In addition to directions previously given for buy tng perfect fruit, for thorough sterilization of jars, whether tn 4 steam cooker or kettle, 1 will say to fill the Jars with the fruit, lay covers on loosely, and boll five minutes from the time the water begins to boll, Fill two jars from & third, cover with boiling syrup, fasten covers on tight, set back In steam cooker or kettle for 10 min utes from the time It begins to boil again. For large fruits, such as peaches, plume and soft pears, pee! ‘and pack the fruit into the jars as for the small fruits; proceed pre cisely the same except lengthen the time at firat to 10 minutes, and after adding the boiling syrup give 15 minutes. How do you can bee Wash very clean young beets. Put them into boiling water and boll 20 minutes; cool and slip off the skins; have the jars sterilized by placing In cold water and bring boiling point for 10 minutes Pack the beets into the jars.
