CRAB-APPLE CATSUP.
Select sound apples; peel and quarter two quarts; stew them until
tender in as little water as possible, then press through a sieve. To a quart
of the sifted apple add two teacupfuls of sugar, two teaspoonfuls of pepper,
two teaspoonfuls of cloves, two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon and three large
onions chopped fine. Stir all together adding two tablespoonfuls of salt
and cider vinegar enough to cover✪ Crab-Apple Catsup. Place over slow fire and boil one
hour. Seal while hot F. P. E.
MOST persons to-day who reside in large cities and have means at
command endeavor, during the heated season, to get away for a
few weeks to the country, seashore, mountains or inland lakes where
good, wholesome living and pure air can be enjoyed. "Roughing it" has
become quite a fad and when we consider that the idea includes not only
change of location, but change of dress, healthy exercise and simple liv-
ing, we must all admit that it is a good thing for mankind. Scores, in
flocking hither, camp out or build cottages, others accept the hospitality
offered by the "Summer Hotels," an institution made necessary by the
advance of time.
HOW TO ARRANGE THE STOVE.
In camping out the most important thing aside from the tent is the
stove. The top of a common cooking stove with stove pipe to fit is just
the thing, although stoves can be purchased on purpose for camping at a
cost of three or four dollars. Dig out a hole in the bank the size and
shape of the stove and line all with stones except the front. Regulate the
draught by placing something in front for a blower. Some prefer the
gasoline or oil stoves.
Coffee and tea pots should not have spouts, but lips; and the lips
should be riveted on, as as not to melt off. Tin plates and cups can be
kept clean by occasionally scouring them with ashes or sand.
PROVISIONS FOR CAMP LIFE.
These will depend much upon the locality and the requirements of
the campers; the following suggestions may be serviceable in making up
an outfit:
