Pickled Grapes. — Clip the grapes from main stem with scissors and pack snugly in stone jar ; make a Single Syrup and* add table- spoon whole cloves and two of cinnamon bark, and pour over grapes in jar ; set away three or four days ; then drain off vinegar, boil and pour over again ; repeat for a third time, and any time afterwards should the grapes be inclined to sour. They may be pickled in bunches if preferred, taking care to remove all imperfect fruit
