Crush berries and add almost an equal weight of sugar. Put mixture in preserving kettle and let come to boiling point. Stir well and when whole mass is boiling, let boil twenty or twenty-five minutes. Then stir into this mixture one tablespoon of cornstarch to every gallon of jam. Wet the starch with enough cold water to thin it good, add to boiling jam and continue boiling for five minutes. Then seal in jars.
Note: I have found Kellogg’s Delicious (The Strawberry That Satisfies) a splendid variety;—unsurpassed for canning, preserving and immediate table use. This variety is a very heavy producer and I recommend it with positive assurance that its berries, whether served in any of the foregoing recipes or in any other manner, will give you a new and lasting impression of how deliciously satisfying strawberries can be.
Kellogg’s Rain-Maker
You don’t need to gaze wistfully at the sky and wish for rain if you have Kellogg’s Rain-Maker. Solves the watering problem for garden, lawn or shrubbery as it is light and portable (weighs only 25 lbs.) and is easily moved wherever you need rain. It is manufactured for us by the Skinner Irrigation Company of Troy, Ohio, and embodies on a smaller scale, the same principle of Skinner Irrigation which we use exclusively on the Kellogg Farm and which we have found most desirable and efficient. Consists of two nine-foot sections of 3⁄4 inch galvanized pipe fitted with nine of the famous Skinner System Silver Stream nozzles. Attaches to water supply with hose and at ordinary city pressure irrigates a strip 50 x 18 feet. Supported by three pointed iron rods. Nothing to get out of order—lasts a lifetime.
We use and recommend Kellogg’s Rain-Maker. Make certain having yours when you need it by ordering today. After using the first time, you wouldn’t part with it at any price if you couldn’t get another. Weight packed for shipment, about 30 pounds. In ordering, please specify whether you prefer shipment by Express or Freight.
Price only $11.00 each f. o. b. Troy, Ohio.
