TO PICKLE RED CABBAGE.

Cut up the cabbage with a slaw cutter; sprinkle it with salt in alternate layers; let it stand twenty-four hours; then take it out and drain it; put it in a jar, and pour boiling vinegar, with horse-radish, black pepper, and cloves; cover it; when nearly cold, tie up the jar.
