This was a favorite of my grandmother, I haven't tried it yet, but hope it will interest some of you.

12 Cobs of Corn, raw, kernels removed
3 pints water
1 package powdered pectin
4 C sugar
1 Tbl lemon juice

Boil cobs in water for 20 minutes. Drain liquid throuch a jelly bag. Measure 3 C of liquid into saucepan with lemon juice. Stir in pectin, bring to a full rolling boil. Add sugar, return to boiling, stirring to thoroughly mix in sugar. Boil hard 1 minute. Remove from heat, skim & pour into glasses & seal.

If desired could add few drops yellow food coloring.
 
Readers should be aware this is an old recipe and is not pasteurized by modern standards for safe storage at room temperature. If made I would recommend it be stored in the refrigerator.
