Bubbles in Preserves

Dear Aunt Daisy, I heard you reading a letter from a lady who was anxious about her jars of apricots having bubbles on top after being turned up. If those bottles had stood on their lids all night, they are perfectly all right. I think apricots are likely to look frothy-mine did, and I still have some which have been bottled two years! They were done in a waterbath (in the copper), screwed down and stood on lid till morning. They, too, looked frothy, but soon the froth disappeared; and, as I say, they have kept two years. Apricots are very difficult to buy here, so I just open a jar as a

special treat:
