Fruits Yet Lasting

Pears of several forts, besides the winter bonchretien; as also the black pear of Worcester and the English warden for baking. Apples; Golden pippins, nonpareils, russet-apples, Kentish-pippins, Holland-pippins, Harvey-apples, Kirton-pippins, winter-pearmains, John-apples, pomme-roys, winter-queenings, and others of less note : likewise nuts, almonds, services, and medlars. Grapes may be preserved, by cutting them with a knot of the shoot of the wine, and then hanging them in rows in a dry warm room, taking care they are at such a distance that they don't touch each other, and the air may pass freely between them; otherwise they will grow mouldy and rot. By this method they will be good in February.
