SELECTED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES.

To Preserve APPLES and core, and
cut them in halves and quarters; take as many
pounds of the best brown sugar, put teacuP
of water TO each pound When it is dissolved,
set it over the fire; and when boiled hot, put
in the fruit, and let it boil gently until IL 10

a skinner. on fat dishes, spread it 10 cool,
then putit in pots or jars, and pour 'he Iehy
over Lannon's boiled tender in water, and
j sliced thin NAV be boiled with the apples.
tn Preserve CRAB-APPLEs.-Take off the
stem. ard cure them with pen-knife, without
cutting them open; weigh pound of white
sugar for each pound of prepared fruit; put
teacup of water to each pound of sugar; put it
over moderate fire. When the sugar is all
dissolved, and hot, pot the apples in; let them
boil gently until they are clear, then skim them
out, and spread them on fat dishes. Boil the
syrup until it is thick: put the apples in what
ever they are 10 be kept, and when the syrup
is cooled and settled, pour it carefully over the
fruit. Slices of lemon boiled with the fruit
may be considered an Improvement; one lemon
is enough for several pounds of fruit. Crab
apples may be preserved whole with only half
an inch of the stem on; lhree-quarters of
pound of sugar for each pound of fruit
To DYE WooD BLAcK.-Boil the wood in
strong liquor of logwood for half an hour, then
take it cut, and rub its surface with a piece of
sponge which has been dipped into solution
of copperas. Gunsmiths dye their ramrods by
sleeping them in a strong solution of logwood
for about twelve hours, then coating them with
the copperas solution, an ounce of which is
sufficient for five dozen. To boil them in
strong ink would answer the same purpose.
To Color Ivory BLAcK.-Make up very
strong solution Of logwood, little fustc and
copperas, and boil the ivory in this for twenty
minutes, then take out the articles, dry them,
and rub over their surface with little sweet
oil. Ivory balls, umbrella tips, &C., may be
dyed black in this manner.
OsTRicH FEATHERs.-These beautiful feath-
ers are dyed black in the same manner as ivory,
but, 10 prevent them being injured by the ag-
tation of the water, they should be sewn up in
a coarse cotton cloth bag When colored they
should be washed, then beaten with the palm of
the hand upon firm cushion until they are
dry. This opens their ibres and makes them
look handsome.
STRAW HATS are dyed black in the same
manner as wood, (like the ramrods,) only So
luton of copperas is made up in pail. and
they stepped in thissfo half an hour after
they have been boiled in the strong logwood.
