GREEN-GAGE JAM

Stone the green-gages, and add some of the kernels to the fruit. Allow six pounds of lump sugar and one quart of water to every six pounds of green-gages, weighed after stoning. Heat the sugar on a baking sheet in the oven, then add it to the water and allow to boil for eight minutes, then add the fruit, and boil gently in a casserole for three-quarters of an hour.

Pour into glass jars and seal.
