How, peiicscy Should Be Made N One
Would Have II at Its
Best.

The canning-club specialists Of the
States Relations service for the north
ern and western states recommend
that the following points be observed
to make certain that jelly will be OF
good quality.
After the fruit has been boiled and
the texture broken down IL should be
poured into a jelly bag and permitted
to drain for a considerable time. Fore
ing the juice from the pulp will cause
cloudy jelly. When the juice has
been collected, place two teaspoonfuls
of cold unsweetened fruit juice In two
teaspoonfuls of grain alcohol and mix
by shaking gently. Allow 1t to settle
for one-half hour, preferably in a
glass tumbler. If a jellylike sub
stance collects in the bottom of the
mixture II is evidence that pectln is
present and the juice is suitable for
Jelly making. When the test shows
absence of pectin, the white portion Of
orange peel, apples or green citron
melon may be added to the juice to
supply the necessary pectin. Twelve
ounces of sugar added to a pint Of
Juice will make a jelly of the proper
firmness and texture. Jelly is ready
to be poured into the glasses when two
rows of drops form on the end of a
paddle or on the edge Of spoon held
sidewise.
