PEACH JAM and JELLY
By: Katharine Baker
T'he subject of .jam and jelly mak-
ing always reminds us of the fable
ot the ant and the grasshopper. The
grasshopper took the laziest way
through summer, tasting and enjoy
6n to the full each fruit as it rip -I
ened... but the far-sighted ant put
-Some away for the days when the
fresh fruit would be gone.
With peaches particularly, it is a
;peat temptation to emulate the ,
Erasshopper and have peaches and
dream, peach shortcake, peach pie
and alt the delicious desserts that
.can be made from fresh peaches and
•nob bother about preserving them.'
"Of course, every one knows the mor -
•al of the ant and the grassropperi
story. When winter came the
:grasshopper went hungry. And
that is the moral of this story, don't
and yourself at the ant of the peach
season with oaly mouth-watering
-memories of how good the fresh
fruit was.
The modern wy of making paaeh
preserves is really so simple and
sure that to eat yon fill of the
'fresh fruit and still have some for

In rural sections, where practic-
able, the manure should be removed
daily and spread thinly on fields
where the drying effect of sun and
