Keep gin- goef, lemon, etc., for watermelon and curon preeez'vos and insipid pears. Quinces, and hard pears and peaches should be steamed till tender before being put in the sugar syrup. Partly cook them. let them stand in the syrup over nighL, and finish cooking next day. The pits of peaches and cherries im- part a delicate and delicious flavor to fruit, and a part should always be left in in putting up these fruits. If you do not wish to do this, boil the pits for some time in clear water and use the water to make the syrup, Whenever possible make a syrup 0! sugar and hunt juice, or as little water as possible, and cook the fruit in it, either for preserves or canned fuit. Plums and peaches can be skinned by Pouring boiling water over them, when the skLns will slip off easily. Prepare only a few at a time as the heat soft- ens them. Don’t say “jell;” there is no such thing as “je-ll.” It is jelly. In putting up any kind of fruit let it come to a boil, then cook slowly. Don’t fill your kettle too full. Seven and a half pounds of fruit, with an equal quantity of sugar, will make a gallon of preserves. Fourteen pounds of fruit (berries and as much sugar) will make five quarts of jam. Two quarts of stemmed currants make two pints of juice, which with two pounds of sugar will make three tumblers ofi jelly. small quantities. Cut out all bruised spots, knots, stems. etc., when preparing fruit for jelly. The skins and cores may be ad- vantageously used, since more of the pectin or gelatinous matter resides in them than in any other part of the fruit.

For berries, mash the fruit on the bottom of the pan. let heat up very slowly or set in the oven, and the juice will soon nutrimont for the growing bone and muscle of children large You it in To make it, place a piece of unslacked lime in a clean bottle and fill with clear pure water.

A teaspoonful in a cup of milk is an excellent remedy for delicate child- ren Whose digestion is weak; it-is also beneficial to persons suffering from acidity of the stomach. It gives no unpleasant taste to the milk or other articles of food in which it is put. When a little lime water is added to cream or mill: which must stand sometime, will prevent its souring.

From March to September is the best season for the amateur to strike cut- tings, but by a little care, she may soon learn to start them any time of the year. Cuttings of almost any plant taken in March and properly treated, will make good bedders by the first of May. Tin cans or cigar boxes will do to start them in. Pans should not be deeper than four inches. and the soil should be rather light, a good mixture consisting of two parts or a little more, of sand, one part of leaf mold and good garden soil. In very warm weather a pan of clear sand is ,admissible, but if the sand is allowed to become alittle dry the cuttings will suffer more than if they were growing in a mixture of sand and earth. It is always well to place a small layer of broken pottery or charcoal on the bottom of the pans for drainage. A few holes should be made in the pans or boxes so that any surplus water may pass off. The ends of thrifty growing shoots that are not very soft and green, but have just begun to ripen, make the best cuttings; they should be cut with a sharp knife, not broken; three in- ches is the pimper length. The earth should be thoroughly saturated when the slips are first set and water should afterward be applied as needed; they require from a weelr to anmonth to be- PROPAGATION OF CUTTINGS. Of the plants that do not bear- seeds freely, or which require a long time to reach perfection from seed, the means of propagation is by cuttings or layers. Nearly all green house and bedding plants are included in this class, for unless one has had consider- able experience, has time, and is will- ing to devote much time to the work. the rearing of green house plants from seeds is almost certain to end in dis- appointment and failure.
