WHEN PRESERVE SHELF Is EMPTY

ONE of the surest signs OF
~ spring is the empty preserve
shelf. The housewife. regardless
of how careful she may be, is
never quite able to gauge the APP
petite of her family exactly. Con-
sequently she frequently finds
herself in the spring with not
enough preserves and jams to last
, until the fresh fruits come in.
In that case, she can make many
delicious varieties out Of the fruits
and vegetables which are in the
market all the year round.
Oranges, lemons and grapefruit,
for example. form the basis for
many jams, conserves and mar
malades, and they are plentiful

and apples can also be used to
good advantage and a very deli
