Better Strawberry Jam
Easily Made in Is Minutes
8 Better-Costs Less and Never Fails
. BY ANN PROCTOR

Everyone loves strawberry jam. For
a spread on bread or hot biscuits, moth
ing seems to equal it. It's wonderful
favor makes children of US all. Until
now, however, an expert was required
to make it, and itShas been expensive.
Certo, the natural "jell'' making prop
erty of fruit, has solved the problem so
that everyone can make and eat a lot
of this delicious preserve.
To make strawberry jam by the
quick and easy Certo method, follow
this simple recipe:
Crush about 2 quarts ripe berries in
separate, portions, so that each berry is
mashed. This allows fruit to quickly
absorb the sugar during the short boil.
Measure level cups q lbs crushed
berries into large kettle, add Z level
cups e lbs.1 sugar and mix well.
Use hottest fire and stir constantly be-
fore and while boiling. Boil hard for
one full minute, remove from FIRE and
stir In IA bottle (scant " cup) Certo.
From time jam il taken off FIRE allow
to stand not over 8 minutes by the
clock, before pouring. In the mean
time, skim, and stir occasionally to
cool slightly. Then pour quickly.
Use same recipe for raspberry, black
berry, dewberfy or longanberry jam.
This Certo process bAnishes all the
guess work or worry as perfect results
are certain when a simple recipe is fol-
