Oh! What to Do When Materials Cannot Be Had.
Sugar in the shape of the good old white granulated sugar is not in sight sometimes (as in 1919, or in the year 1917 all through the Eastern States).
Consider brown sugar. Remember that brown sugar is not to be used in white goods. It can be used in place of combined white sugar and molasses; weight of brown sugar for weight of white sugar, plus molasses, with nearly same results. There are several grades of brown sugar and the price increases as the grade improves. If you use brown sugar, where formerly you used white, reduce by from 10 to 20 per cent. the quantity of corn syrup to a batch.
