APPLE RELISH

Seven pounds of apples,
Two pounds of seeded raisins,
One pint of vinegar,
Three and one-half pounds of sugar,
Two oranges,
One teaspoonful of powdered cloves,
Two teaspoonsful of powdered cinnamon.

Chop the raisins and put them into a porcelain lined kettle, add the apples, chopped and unpeeled, the juice and the chopped peel of the oranges, the sugar, vinegar and spices. Boil steadily for half an hour.

CORN RELISH

18 ears of corn,
1 onion,
1 cabbage,
¼ pound of mustard,
1 pint of vinegar,
4 cupsful of sugar,
½ cupful of salt,

Cut the corn from the cob, chop, onion, peppers and cabbage, add sugar, salt and vinegar, and cook slowly three-quarters of an hour. Ten minutes before taking from the fire, add a very scant fourth of a pound of dissolved mustard. Seal in glass jars.
