Jam, Mixed, for Nursery Use

Take equal weights of any fruit that is in season, such as gooseberries, red or black currants, raspberries, or cherries. Boil them gently for half an hour, then weigh the fruit, and put half a pound of sugar to every pound of pulp and boil twenty minutes longer. When cherries are used they must be boiled twenty minutes alone before the other fruit is added to them. This jam will not keep more than two or three months. Probable cost, 6d. per pound.
