FIG PRESERVES..— Gather the fruit when fully ripe but not cracked open; place it in a perforated tin bucket or wire,, screen, and dip it for a moment in a deep kettle of lye, hot and moderately strong (some prefer to let them lay an hour in lime water, draining them afterwards). Allow 1 lb. of sugar to 1 lb. figs
