Preheat oven to 400 degrees. If apples lack tartness, sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Combine sugar, flour, spices, and dash salt; mix with apples. Line 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Fill with apple mixture; dot with margarine. Adjust top crust, cutting slits for escape of steam; seal. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 400F for 50 minutes or till done. (Personal Notes: I sometimes use "canned in water" apple slices and they work just fine.)
