2 gallons cider vinegar.

Should be prepared months before using. Cabbage to be pickled should
be boiled or scalded in salt and water until the leaves can be turned
back so as to sprinkle salt between them; then must be dried in the
sun. Shake all the salt out when dry, and soak in plain vinegar, with
a little turmeric sprinkled on each layer of cabbage. After ten days,
drain them and put in the spiced vinegar.--_Mrs. S. T._

A few pieces of ginger.
4 tablespoonfuls made mustard.

1 tablespoonful allspice.
Take one peck of quartered cabbage; slice them and put a layer of
cabbage and one of salt; let it remain over night. In the morning
squeeze them and put on the fire with four chopped onions, and cover
with vinegar; boil for an hour, then add the spices mentioned above,
and let it boil an hour longer; when cold it is ready for use.--_Mrs.
W. H. M._
A QUICK WAY TO MAKE YELLOW PICKLE.
Two gallons chopped cabbage, sprinkle one handful salt through it, and
let stand over night. Squeeze it out dry and put into a kettle. Add
one ounce of celery-seed, one ounce of turmeric, one quarter-pound of
mustard-seed, (black and white mixed), five pounds brown sugar, with
vinegar enough to cover the whole well.
Boil until the cabbage is tender. Put it in stone jars and keep it
closely covered. It is fit for use the day after it is made.--_Mrs. J.
C. W._
