The black cur- rant makes exceilent jelly, and the merits of black currant jani have long been known. Red and White Currants. The* red currant makes excellOnt jelly, and its popularity Is largely due to that fact. A large quantity of red currant Jelly Is made every year in Canada. Red turrants are Used to R, 'Jesse., extelit, for Pies and as jani, and _ are also eaten raw wit -11 sugar.
