## Editor's Notes
- **"piece of alum size of walnut"** — Alum (potassium alum or aluminum sulfate) was historically used as a crisping agent in home pickle recipes. Modern food safety guidance advises against using alum in pickles, as it can cause gastrointestinal distress. The USDA no longer recommends alum in home canning. Readers should be aware of this risk.
- **"pickling spices (hot)"** — The parenthetical "(hot)" most likely refers to hot/spicy pickling spice blend rather than temperature, and is transcribed accordingly. -

Never-Fail Dill Pickles
NEVER-FAIL DILL PICKLES
2 quarts fresh cucumbers
4 to 8 heads dill
2 tablespoons mixed whole spices, optional
3 tablespoons salt
3 cloves garlic, cut finely, or horseradish
1 cup vinegar
Cold water
Wash cucumbers and prick with fork. Pack into sterilized half-gallon or 2-quart jars, sprinkling chopped heads
of dill through as jar is packed. Add spices, salt, garlic or
horseradish and vinegar. Add cold water to fill jar. Tighten covers almost firmly. Leave for a few days where the
jar may be shaken occasionally until the salt is dissolved.
Do not use for 2 weeks. These pickles "work" or ferment
and look milky in the jars. Sometimes brine will run out
at the top. This does not hurt pickles, but lids must be
tightened firmly after pickles are through working.
If desired, a boiling hot liquid may be poured over the
cucumbers; they are then sealed and will not work. Prick
cucumbers with a fork 3 or 4 times before packing in
jars. The proportions for the hot liquid are: 1 cup vinegar,
3 cups water, 1/4 cup salt. Bring to boil and pour over
cucumbers, dill and garlic packed in jars. Seal at once.
