   4                    eggs
     2/3  c.            water

                        jars
                        manufacturers directions. Grease inside -- but not the rim of
                        the jars.

Cream sugar and shortening, beat in eggs and water, add carrots. Sift
together flour, cloves, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt ;
add to batter. Add raisins and mix. Pour 1 c. only of batter into each jar.
Place jars evenly spaced on a cookie sheet. Bake at 325 for 45 min.
Remove jars from oven one at a time. Working quickly, wipe rim, place lid
and ring on jar and secure. Jars will seal quickly. Repeat with remaining
jars. Unsealed jars should be stored in refrigerator and eaten within 2
weeks. Sealed jars may be stored with other canned foods or placed in
the freezer. The cake is safe to eat as long as the jar remains vacuum
sealed and free from mold.
