Take an equal weight of fruit and sugar. It is usually cupful for cupful. Cook one-fourth of the fruit till soft. Strain it, and pour the juice in the kettle with the sugar, stirring till sugar is dissolved. Put in the remainder of the fruit and boil for five minutes. Dip out the fruit and put in jars till nearly full. Boil the syrup till it jellies, pour over the berries till jars are completely filled, and seal. If a tablespoonful of glycerine be added to each pound of fruit used in making jam, it will prevent crystallization.
