Two slop Jars or enamel Buckets with Covers. A two-quart Fountain Syringe; an old one may be substituted provided it has been thoroughly boiled. Three Basins and a one-quart Pitcher of agate or enamel-ware. A Douche-Pan; the "perfection Bed-Pan" is preferable. Should this be too expensive, the best substitute is white table oil-cloth.
You can prepare your juice even if it is cloudy, but wait for sunshine before adding the sugar and final boiling. Large enamelled kettle, syrup gauge, two colanders, wooden masher, wooden spoon, jelly glasses, one-quart measure, two enamelled cups, one baking-pan, two earthen bowls, paraffin wax, enamelled dishpan for sterilizing glasses and two iron jelly stands with cheese-cloth bags.
It will take from ten to a dozen large ears of corn to fill a one-quart can. When the cans are full, screw cover on with thumb and first finger; this will be tight enough, then place a cloth in the bottom of a wash boiler to prevent breakage. On this put a layer of cans in any position you prefer, over the cans put a layer of cloth, then a layer of cans.
When I say that this one-quart vessel weighed all of two stone, the reader will realize that the mere gathering of the rainwater was no light task. Thus, I rendered my lonely situation as comfortable as could be expected. I had completed me a snug and secure shelter; and, as to provision, I had always on hand a six months' supply, preserved by salting and drying.
