True, it's not like other, that are "SOLD EVERY

A little ttretch, we all do know, good good, will

(Rut a stretch like thus "sold erery where" is very
apt to tear.)
Now, I can safely any, without nry hesitation ' 1
There's none like "Ulrow.imu'a tiCKLSioH ' in this

But wiib IheCotleu-men I will not hold contention
For the many, many things they aay too uuinerou,

To learo the current wholesale price of "Browning'!

Now, try a little of thorn-all sea which yon lik

Three years have passol away since I first sold a

Never have I in your paper advertised before;
Nor would I now. or ovur consent to publish more.

A trade like Ihu 1 do out wish; the orders I oould

At the present time, (Oct.) the preserving
group is engaged in bottling apples. One
might at tiist question the expediency of
houling so common a fruit; but doubt on
this point dissappears when it is considered
that the labor ut preserving apples in this
way is scarcely more than the labor of pre
paring them for sauce, pies, or cooking theiu
in uny loriu thut It is eveu less than the
labor of dryiug them th-tt the bottled ap-
I p'cs are Just us good as green apples iu their
. best coudition much letter than green
: apples thut have lieen kept a few months
I altogether preferulilu to dried apples,
which ure never of first-rate flavor, aud are
ol'teu damaged by parasites and, further,
by this menus fall apples, and such fruit as
would sunn decay and become worthless,
are umde just as available in lulure tuuuths
as the best keeping varieties.
For the iiil'oriuutiou of those unacquaint
ed with the process of preserving fruit, I
may Ihj excused for attempting to explain
it us here conducted, somewhat in detail.
The fiuit is tirst suitably prepuied by
bulling, assorting or paring ami cutting, as
the fuse demands; and, in most instances,
is immediately placed in clean glass bottles,
tilling theiu lull, and wheu such fruit ss
peaches, ieurs, quinces, tic, are cut in large
pieces, it is lies', to take some pains to crowd
1 ue Iruit into the Untie otherwise the heat
ing process will not leave the bottle proper
Ij filled with fruit. ' ' " '
Next prepare a svrup of melted refined or
w hite sugar, and pour into the bottles by
the lxllowiug rule: Allow six' ounces of su
gar to one quart of fruit ; or melt ten
pounds of sugar in one gallon of water,
uud give one-half piut of the syrup thus
produced to oue quart bottle of Iruit. This
rule is adapted to the at ruw berry, cherry,
peacu and oilier similar fruits. More acid
runs, like the currant, require a greater
proportion of sugar. Sugar for a few yeurs,
aud especially the present season, has been
so high, that the temptation bus been great
lor those w ho put up Iruit for sale to make
the proportion of sugar much less than the
above rule requires, and some parties have
acknowledged thai they had reduced the
quantity 01 sugar to three ounce for oce
quart of fruit. Fruit put up air tight will
ol course 'keep just a well without sugar as
with it. dut it is thought much better to
Ileal the Iruit lu syrup rather than to beat
it iu water aud apply sugar as it is used tot
thu tabtu. .... 1
