It reminded me of the way, as it is said, some made their sourcrout in this country some forty-five or fifty years ago.
By that time the sourcrout will be ready for use. Care must be taken to let the least possible air enter the sourcrout and to have the cover perfectly clean. Each time the barrel has to be opened it must be properly closed again. These precautions must not be neglected.

"Then they will find out that they have caught a Tartar, and we shall get out of the power of this Monsieur Sourcrout," answered Harry; "however, we mustn't raise our hopes too high."
