As in the case of bottled fruits, jam, and marmalade are not worth making at home, unless there is a large quantity of fruit in the garden. To begin with, there is a great deal of labour and time required to pick and prepare the fruit; and a still more important argument is that nothing is saved if the fruit has to be bought, although many consider good home-made jam better than any other. The jams prepared by Castell and Brown are excellent in quality, and no orange marmalade is superior to Keiller's.
