1 peck string beans (after broken up)
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. salt
1/2 c. vinegar

Put string beans in a cooking pot and add the other ingredients. Add enough water to come to the top of the string beans. Cook for 30-35 minutes.

Fill jars with string beans and water mixture until full. Seal at once. When opening a jar, drain the vinegar water off and add water and a small piece of cooking meat to the string beans. Cook until water is gone.
