They should be thoroughly

Lectures on and demonstra-

Animals will be slaughtered out

fruit. This requires long, slow
cooking, but very little sugar.
If sugar is to be added at all
it should be put in when the
cooking is almost done; other
wise it will tend to tougher and
discolor the fruit. Prunes do
not require any sugar at all, as
the long, slow cooking restores
their natural flavor and they
are then sweet enough for most
people, but the addition of a lit
tie lemon juice improves their
palatability.
