To PRESERVE SMALL FRUITS WITHOUT BEING i lCooKED.—Strawl)erries,rasp- . berries,,‘blackberries, cher- ries and peaches, can be " ipreserved in this manner: -—Lay the ripe fruit in broad dishes, and sprinkle over it lthe same quantity of sugar i used in cooking it. Set it p in the sun, or in a moderate— fly heated oven, until the ' juice Forms fl thick‘ syrup . with the sugar. Pack the fruit in tumblers, and pour “the syrup over it. Paste 9 writing paper over the glass- .3 es, and set them in a cool, ' ‘dry place. Preserved in this V manner, the fruit retains much more of its natural. flavour and healthfulness, than when cooked—New Jersey Farmer.
