Cookery in America.

A thing much to be deplored in our country is
the little attention paid to the preparation of food
The tourist who said that the Americans had
hundred religions and only one soup was witty,
but he told truth, and showed a practical obser-
walton and an enlightened understanding. The
matter Of cookery deserves all the attention that
can be bestowed upon it, and we maintain that
no people can be great good or happy who do
not understand the art of cookery sufficiently well
to prepare digestble food. In a country like ours,
where every description of fish, flesh and fowl is
abundant and where the teeming earth produces
all kinds of vegetables used by man for food in
profusion it certainly is criminal for the inhabi-
tants to show such wanton disregard of their
health as is evinced by great majority of the
American people. Outside of our cities and large
towns, no one appears to bestow a thought on
this important subject, and in our wanderngs we
have frequently been forced to dine upon fried
bacon and badly baked corn bread, prepared
over smoky fire, at the houses of men who could
count their fortunes by thousands and their
possessions by townships. That people SO
careless as to what they eat should be
unhealthy and that our countrymen should be
classed as nation of dyspeptics need excite nc
astonishment. We hope to see change in this

1898 AND ls66.-We find in the Cincinnati En-
quirer the following, which shows that New Eng
land in 1873 differs very little from New England
in 1866:
Thomas Jefferson in letter to John Taylor, of
Caroline county, Va, June, l798 said 1t is true
that we are completely under the saddle OF Mas
sachasetts and Connecticut, and they ride us very
hard-eruelly insulting feelings as well as
exhaustiug onr strength and subsistence. Their
natural friends, the three other Eastern States,
| join them from a sort of family pride, and they
have the art to divide certain other parts of the
Union so as to make use Of them to govern the
whole"
New England has not tchanged in character since
| 1898. 1t is the same now as then; and the whole
West and South is as completely under the saddle
of New England to-day as when Jefferson wrote.
And it rides the West and South as hard now as
then. The wealth and senatorial representation
of that section enables il to make other sections
benefit,
