So thoroughly haa the gospel of good

Jersey that the farm producla of that
state were $52,000,000. as compared
to the $20.000,000 eight years ago The
secretary of the state board of agri-

to each pint of Juice a pound of sugar
Turn the migar on platen aud set In

When the Juice has boiled Juat 20
minutes from the time it commenced
to boll—being well skimmed In the
meantime—pour In the sugar and sllr
until It is dissolved—no longer, ltoll
from two to three minutes, test by
pouring a few drops lu a cup and ex-
posing to (he air to see tf It begins
to thicken, (ben pour at onre Into
glaases which have been rolled In hot
water, To prevent cracking, keep the
glaaac-s, while being tilled on a hot

When whlto currants are used for

Black currant Jelly Is one of the

rants, and, after washing, put In the
preserving kettle, allowing a cupful
of water to each quart of fruit Thla
la essential, becauao the black cur>
ranta are a drier fruit than either

ien spoon or pestle, then cover and

.pint of Juice allow a half pound of
Joaf sugar. Stir until well mixed, then

For rhubarb Jelly wash the rhu-
barb; drain It well, but do not poet It,
Jf you wish your Jelly to have a fin*
