STRAWBERRY SYRUP—­Pick over, rinse, drain and remove the hulls from several quarts of ripe berries.  Fill a porcelain lined double boiler with the fruit and set it over the lower boiler half full of boiling water, and let it heat until the juice flows freely.  Mash the berries, then turn out into a cloth strainer and cook the remainder of the fruit in the same way.  When all the juice is pressed out, measure it and allow an equal amount of sugar.  Let the juice come to the boiling point, add the sugar and cook five minutes from the time the whole begins to boil.  Turn into jars or bottles and seal the same as canned fruit.  This is excellent for beverages, flavoring ice cream and other fancy creams, and will be found desirable for many purposes when fresh fruit is not at hand.
