Small Beer
Fifteen gallons water, one gallon bran, one and a half gallon molasses, one quart corn or oats, one-quarter pound hops. Let it boil up once; take it off and sweeten with the aforementioned molasses. Put it in a tub to cool. When a little more than milk, warm, add one and a half pint yeast. Cover it with a blanket till next morning, and then bottle.--Mrs. M. P.
