SiRUPS SAVE SUGAR
IN MAKING JELLIES
Directions Given by Department
Of Agriculture Experts.
When Fruit Is Cheap and Sugar Ex.

Advantage With one-Half Usual
Amount Of Sweetenine.

To obtain the largest possible
amount of jelly from fruit with the
use of the smallest possible amount OF
sugar, follow the directions given be.
low by United States department of
agriculture specialists:
If a good jelly-making fruit, such as
ounce, green grapes, tart and partly
ripe apples, Siberian crabs, or Gran.
berries is being used, make a second
extraction from the fruit. That is, take
the pulp from the Jelly bag, add one
cupful of water to each pound of puIp.
cook 20 minutes, and drip second
time, using some pressure at the last.
Second-extraction jellies are likely to be
somewhat different in flavor from the
nrst, and it is an excellent plan to com.
bine the two jellies before sweetening
When fruit is cheap and sugar OK.
'pensive, jellies may be made to advan.
,tage with one-half as much sweetening
as usual, that is, with one-half cupful
of sugar to one cupful of juice. The
yield Of Jelly will be less, for one Gun.
full of a good juice plus one cupful of
sugar should make between one and
one and one-half cupfuls of Jelly,
whereas one-half cupful of sugar plus
one cupful of juice makes between one
half cupful and three-fourths cupful of
jelly.
One-half Of the sweetening may be
glucose sirup, light-colored corn sirup
honey or sorghum strip. If the other
half is graduated sugar, there will be
little noticeable difference in sweetness
In most cases. Grape with glucose or
corn strip will make good jelly even
when no sugar Is used.
