many cooks add extra minced ap-
piles rajsins, currants, cider or grape
juice, and some add a little more
seasoning. The amount Of extras
to be added must be gagged by the
number OF pies needed and by indiv-
idual taste. A quart jar with an
equal amount OF other ingredients
should make two large pies or three
small ones.
New England Apple Pie.

more quickly, which is one of the
causes of its cooking out.
