How TO PRESERVE PEAcHEs.-Pare,
halye and weigh the peaches; put
them into o kettle full of boiling wa
ter, and to every six pounds OF fruit
put tea spoonful Of soda, boil one
minute, take them of, and throw
them into cold water. removing any
dark scum which may adhere to
them. Make the syrup of half a
pound of sugar and gill of water to
every pound of fruit; boil and clarity
it, and when well skinned put in the
fruit, and when half done take the
peaches from the syrup. and lay on
dishes SO that each piece shall be
separate, and let them get entirely
cold: then return them to the boiling
syrup and cook until done; boil the
syrup until it is rich. It is best to
warm the jars and put in the pre-
serves hot. If the jars are OF glass,
they will break unless heated quite
hot before filling them. I
