MINCE MEAT FOR PIES.

Four pounds of round of beef, seven pounds apples, five pounds raisins (chopped or stoned); two pounds suet, seven pounds sugar, one pint brandy, ten nutmegs, grated; cinnamon and cloves to taste; a little salt, three-fourths pound citron, sliced fine. Boil beef until tender; when cold chop fine, add the apples, chopped also, and the other ingredients. This quantity makes a three gallon crock full.
