4 c. peaches
5 c. red plums
8 c. sugar
1 thin sliced lemon

Wash, peeled and pit 4 cups peaches and 5 cups red plums. Cut fruit into small pieces and place in a large kettle. Add 8 cups sugar and 1 thinly sliced lemon, stirring well into mix. Boil rapidly, stirring constantly until jellying point is reached or until thick. Remove from heat, skim and stir alternately for 5 minutes. Ladle into hot jars; seal. Yield: 12 half pints.

The blending of the two fruits and lemon is the secret of the wonderful flavor.
