Grapes
RestGrR aIy.Baah rHa
BY SISTER MARY

All sorts of delicious conserves and
jellies can be made with grapes. Per-
sonally, l think there is no grape like
the Concord. However, this is mat
ter of taste" Whatever variety of
grape is at hand can be used.
Pectin (Which forms jellies) is
found in all fruits but Is at it's best
when the fruit is not quite ripe. This
is peculiarly true with grapes. AS
the grapes ripen more sugar is form
ed and ripe grapes are too rich in
sugar to make perfect jelly. Choose
fruit that is Just beginning to turn to
make a firm jelly that will be free
from crystalliZation.
The weather has much to do with
the properties of fruit. A dry, hot
summer means a fruit richer in SUI
gar than a cold, wet season. If fruit
is gathered after a rain there will be
more water to boil out, to obtain the
pure fruit juice.
These things should be taken into
consideration and allowed for in boil
ing the juice and the proportion of
sugar used.
Grape Jelly
Wash and pick over grapes. Re-
move from stems and put in preserv-
ing Kettle. There will probably be
enough water on the fruit to prevent
burning. Crush a few with wood
en- potato masher and bring slowly to
the boiling point, shaking the kettle
to prevent sticking. When the grapes
are hot crush with the potato masher
and simmer for 80 minutes. Put in
jelly bag and let the juice drip. If a |
clear, sparkling jelly is desired, do
not squeeze the bag. Let drip as long
as there is any juice. Measure juice
and put in preserving kettle. Boil
gently for eight minutes and add as
much sugar as there was juice. Boil
five minutes and pour into sterilized |
jelly glasses. Cover with paraf1in |
when cold.
Grape Conserve
Five pounds grapes, pounds SUI
gar, pound raisins, 8 oranges, cup
chopped nut meats.
Wash grapes and remove from
stems and then pulp. Cook pulps and
skins separately. Put pulp through
strainer to remove seeds. Add to
skins with sugar juice of oranges and
grated rind of one and one-half |
oranges and raisins. Cook IS min
ltes and add nuts. Cook five minutes
longer or until thick. Pour into
sterilized jelly glasses and cover with
paraffin when cold.

Somehow the sights in the after

full as they had been the first time he
beheld the circus. Every performer
did exactly the same things he had
done on the Saturday before. Even
the clown played the same tricks on
the ringmaster. And the ringmaster
lost his temper and cracked his whip
and chased the clown away again in
Just the same old fashion.
Johnnie Green began to realize that
everything had been carefully
planned. He was sure of this when the
trick mule did his act. First he threw
the clown. And then the ringmaster
