Preserving Strawberries.

As this fruit is abundant this season,
many will have an opportunity of u.s.
ing the following recipes for pre-
serving them Take fine, large
strawberries, fresh as they can be OBJ
tanned, and as free as possible from
bruises. Prepare q syrup with rein
ed sugar, using as little water as pos
sihle If o lump Of sugar is wetted
with water and placed over o slow
fire, it will gradually Dissolve, at low
heat to this sugar may be gradually
added, until o syrup is formed with
hut little water. Then put the syrup
into fat vessel, lined with porcelain,
and as soon as it is boiling hot, throw
in the strawberries, allow them to re-
main from two to five minutes, take out
with a Strainer, and fill the jar, pre-
viously warmed by having been placed
in hot water: add enough Of the syr
up to fill the spaces between the ber-
ries, and seal at once It is probable
that strawberries may be preserved in
this way in the most desirable condi-
ton. It is suggested that still bet
ter way Of preparing the strawcerries
for sealing viii be to put with them as
much sugar as is desirable, throw them
into the vessel, after standing an hour,
and allow them to heat as quickly as
possible. In this way they will prob
ably not shrink so much as when the
syrup is made first. If glass is used,
the jars should be set in dark place,
as the strawberries will beach if tin
is used, and it viii answer perfectly for
this purpose, this precaution is not ne
cessary. For flavoring ice-cream and
cuStards, the plan pursued by an old
and skilful Sothern housekeeper is well
worthy of attention By this process
fine ripe strawberries are taken and
mashed with an equal quantity, by
weight, of sugar-they are then put
into jars or cans, the vessel placed in
hot water, which is allowed to boil un-
til the whole mass becomes heated
about twenty minutes win answer.
The jar is then sealed. and put away
for use
Raspberries, may be treated in the
same manner.

OF d 4 Z M

OF MALT IN BALTIMORE
The building which was known as the old Gas
Works, situated on the corner of North and Sara
toga streets, has recently been enlarged its interior
remodeled, and is now occupied by Messrs. Bell &
Twedde a malt-house. The building has a
front on North street of 46 feet, and depth along
Saratoga street to Davis street of ls6 feet and is
six stories high. There is two-foot partition wall
forty-six feet from the North street front. which
divides the building and the portion towards North
street is used as the kiln, or drying department
There are four kilns and two fires under each kiln
The floors of the kilns on the third and fifth
floors, and the heat is conveyed to them by means
of fues. The floors of the kns are of sheet iron
perforated with small holes, through which the
heat passes up and dries the grain. The west end,
and by far the largest portion of the building, is
used for storing, soaking, growing and working
the grain. The upper, sixth loor is the storage
ROOM The barley is received on the first floor
and by means of a stean-engine is raised by an
elevator to the storage floor and is carried along
the entire length of l42 feet, and distributed regu
larly over the floor by the machinery.
There are at present twenty thousand bushels of
barley in this department In the west end of the
building there is large steep-tub, with capacity
for 300 bushels. The barley is first placed in this
tub and soaked for period varying from FORTY five
to seventy hours, before it is bit to be sgrown"-
The length of time occupied BY this process de-
pends much on the temperature of the atmosphere
and the quality of the grain. As soon as it is suf-
