Tn no department OF preserving
does the housekeeper feel less
sire Of the result than in jelly
making. The rule that works
perfectly one time fails another
time. Why this is so the average
housekeeper does not know; so
there is nearly always an element
OF uncertainty as to the result Of the
work. These two questions are be-
ing constantly asked: Why does
not my jelly harden?" What
causes my jelly to candy?"
1t is an easy matter to say that
there Is something in the condition
OF the fruit. or that the fruit juice
and sugar were cooked too short or
too long a time. These explanations
are often true. but they do not help
the inquirer. since at other times
Just that proportion Of sugar and
time Of cooking have given perfect
Jelly. Here l am going to give a
clear explanation OF the principles
underlying the process of Jelly max
ing. and believe that the women
who study this carefully will find
the key to unvarying success in this
branch of preserving.
In all fruits. when ripe or nearly
so, there is found pectin, a carbohy-
drate somewhat similar in its prop
critics 10 starch. II is because OF
this substance In the fruit juice
that we are able TO make jelly.
When equal quantities Of sugar and
fruit Juice are combined and the
mixture is heated TO the boiling
point for a short time, the pectin in
the fruit gelatinizes the mass
It is important that the Jelly
maker should understand when this
gelatinizing agent is at its best Pee
tose and pectase always exist in the

flowers or spices. II the apples are
acid it is not advisable to use any
flavor.
Juicy fruits, such as currants.
raspberries, etc. should not be
gathered after a rain, for they will
have absorbed so much water as to
make 1t difficult. without excessive
boiling, to get the juice to jelly
If berries are sandy or dusty it
will be necessary to wash them.
but the work should be done very
quickly so that the fruit may not
absorb much water
Large fruits, such as apples.
peaches and pears, must be boiled
in water until soft. The strained
liquid will contain the fiavoring
matter and pectin.
II requires more work and skill
to make jellies from the fruits to
which water must be added than
from the juicy fruits. If the juicy
fruits are gathered at the proper
time one may be nearly sure that
they contain the right proportion
OF water. If gathered after a rain
the fruit must be boiled a little
longer that the superfuous water
may pass of in steam.
In the case of the large fruits a
fair estimate Is three quarts Of
strained juice from eight quarts of
fruits and about four quarts OF
water. If the quantity of juice is
greater than this it should be boiled
down TO three quarts.
Apples will always require four
quarts of water 70 eight quarts OF
fruit. but juicy peaches and plums
will require only three or three and
one-half quarts
The jelly will be clearer and finer
If the fruit is simmered gently and
not stirred during the cooking.

unripe fruit, AS the fruit ripens the
pectase acts upon the pectose,
which Is insoluble in water. convert
ing it into pectin, which is soluble.
Pectin is at it's best when the fruit
is just ripe or little before. II
the Juice ferments. or the cooking
Of the jelly is continued too long,
the pectin undergoes a change and
loses its power OF gelatinizing. 1t
is, therefore. of the greatest impor-
lance that the fruit should be fresh,
just ripe or a little under-ripe. and
that the boiling of the sugar and
juice should not be continued too
long.
Fruits vary as to the quantities Of
sugar. acid, pectin and gums in
their composition. Some Of the
sour fruits contain more sugar than
do some of the milder-favored
fruits. Currants, for example, often
contain four or five times as much
sugar as the peach. The peach
does not contain so much free acid
and it does contain a great deal of
pectin bodies, which mask the acid;
hence the comparative sweetness
Of the ripe fruit.
An acid fruit is the most suitable
for jelly making. though in some of
the acid fruits, the strawberry, for
example. the quantity of the jelly
making pectin is so small that 1t is
difficult to make jelly with this
fruit II. however. some currant
juice be added to the strawberry
Juice, a pleasant Jelly will be the
result; yet, Of course, the flavor OF
the strawberry will be modified.
Here Is list OF the most desirable
fruits for jelly making. The very
best are given first: Currant. crab
apple, apple, ounce, grape. black
berry. raspberry. peach.
Apples make a very mild jelly.

How Any Housewife Can Make the Most Delicious JeIles

Juice first through cheese cloth and
without pressure. If the cloth is
double the Juice will be quite clear.
When a very clear jelly is desired
the strained juice should pass
through a flannel or felt bag. The
juice may be pressed from the fruit
left in the strainer and used in
marmalade or for a second-quality
jelly.
To make jelly that will not crys-
tallize Candy the right proportion
of sugar must be added to the fruit
juice If the fruit contains a high
percentage Of sugar, the quantity
of added sugar should be a little
less than the quantity of fruit juice.
That is to say, in a season when
there has been q great deal Of heat
and sunshine there viii be more
sugar in the fruit than in a cold,
wet season; consequently, one pint
Of currant juice will require but
three-quarters OF a paint Of sugar.
But in a cold, wet season, the pint
of sugar for the pint of juice must
be measured generously
Another cause of the jelly crystal
lizing is hard boiling. When the
sprup boils 50 rapidly that particles
Of it are thrown on the upper part
Of the sides Of the preserving ket-
tie, they often form crystals. II
these crystals are stirred into the
syrup they are apt to cause the
mass to crystalline in time.
The use Of the syrup gauge and
care not to boil the syrup too VIC
lently would do away with all IN
certainty in .elly-making. The
syrup gauge should register twenty
five degrees, no matter what kind
Of fruit is used.
