    1 can (8-1/4 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
    1/3 cup chopped maraschino cherries
    1 box SURE.JELL Fruit Pectin
    1/2 tsp. butter or margarine
    4 cups sugar, measured into separate bowl (see Note)

    Recipe



    BRING boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot, soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
    PEEL and core pears. Finely chop or grind fruit. Measure exactly 3 cups prepared fruit into 6- or 8-quart saucepot. Remove colored part of peel from orange using vegetable peeler; set aside. Remove and discard remaining white part of peel from orange. Chop fruit, reserving any juice; add to saucepot. Repeat procedure with lemons; add to saucepot. Cut reserved orange and lemon peels into thin slivers, or chop or grind; add to saucepot. Stir in pineapple in juice and cherries.
    STIR pectin into fruit in saucepot. Add butter. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
    STIR in all sugar quickly. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
    LADLE quickly into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches; add boiling water if needed. Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 10 minutes. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.).
