Cherry Jam. — (1) Choose for this ripe (but not over-ripe) fruit. Make a small hole in each and remove the stone, breaking the Cherry as little as possible. To every lib. of fruit add fib. of preserving sugar. Put it into a preserving- pan, place it on a good fire, and boil, stirring continually from the first. Let it boil for forty-five minutes, then take out a little, and put it on a cold plate to test. If it jellies or sets, the jam is done, and must be put into jars at once. Remove the jars to a cool place and tie them down. The jam will not require to be skimmed while it is boiling, as all the scum will boil away.
