all night. Cook slowly in enamel kettle until thick. Seal with paraffine in glasses. ORANGE MARMALADE Mrs. T. M. Flournoy Six oranges; three lemons, parboiled, and save the water; either put the skins through the chopper or slice them very thin; add eight cupfuls water, using that in which the fruit was boiled, and sixteen cupfuls of sugar; let stand over night. Next day let it boil gently until it jellies. ORANGE MARMALADE Mrs. C. B. Martin One grapefruit; six oranges; two lemons (sliced like wafers); two quarts of cold water; let stand over night. In the morning, boil slowly until fruit can be pierced with a straw; add seven and one-half pounds granulated sugar and boil until thick enough. ORANGE MARMALADE Miss Julia Hunt Six pounds of pumpkin (after cut), cut one inch long, three-fourths inch wide and one-half inch thick; cover with five pounds sugar; let stand over night. Six lemons, juice and rind; two oranges sliced and the rinds cut in small pieces; three-fourths ounce ginger, the preserved is best. Simmer until the rind softens, then add to the pumpkin and boil until the right consistency. QUICK ORANGE MARMALADE Mrs. A. Donald Campbell Take one-third lemons and two-thirds oranges (eight oranges and four lemons makes large enough quantity to cook up at one time and makes twelve glasses). Take off the yellow part of the peel from one-half of each; cut into small pieces and drop into the preserving kettle; take off the white part of the peel, between the yellow part and the pulp; be sure none of the white goes into the marmalade, as it makes it bitter. Slice the fruit across in thin slices, and add it to the cut up peel; put teacup of water to each whole fruit (oranges and lemons) and cook until the fruit is soft. When cooked, add three-fourths cup of sugar for each whole fruit and boil hard until it jells. The quicker it is cooked the better, as long cooking, especially after the sugar is added, tends to destroy the flavor and makes the mixture taste strong. RHUBARB MARMALADE Mrs. J. L. Putman Boil for twenty minutes, four pounds of rhubarb cut into small pieces, leaving the skin on. Add the juice of five lemons, the rind of which has been sliced off thinly, boiled in a little water for about twenty minutes or until soft; and chopped fine. To this add six pounds of granulated sugar, one pound of blanched almonds, chopped or cut, and one wine-glass of Jamaica ginger.
