=Grape Juice=

10 Pounds of Grapes
3 Pounds of Sugar
1 Cupful of Water

Pick from the stems, and wash clean, ten pounds of grapes. Put them on
the stove in a kettle, with a little water, and cook until tender.
Strain through a flannel bag. Do not squeeze it. Return juice to the
kettle, add sugar, and boil for five minutes. Seal in glass jars when
boiling hot. Slant the jars, when filling, to prevent cracking. When
serving, add nearly the same amount of water.

4 Cupfuls of Chopped Meat
12 Cupfuls of Chopped Apples
2 Cupfuls of Chopped Suet
1 Cupful of Vinegar
3 Cupfuls Seeded Raisins

5 Cupfuls of Brown Sugar
1 1/2 Cupfuls of Molasses
6 Teaspoonfuls of Cinnamon
3 Teaspoonfuls of Cloves
