Recipe for Peach Brandy.

We do not know whether it was
the recent decision of the supreme
court or the abundant peach crop
which moved a reader of The Tribune
to send us the following recipe for
peach brandy:
When putting up peaches, save the
Feelings and pits; wash them, cover
with water and cook until the pellings
are soft. Drain through a colander
and to each quart of liquid add one
pint of sugar. Stir until sugar is dis
solved. Pour into jugs or jars and let
ferment, which requires about two
weeks. Then strain and bottle and it
is ready for use.
