ToMAToEs.-The tomato is vegetable
that is difficult to spoil, and it is generally
acceptable even when rudely cooked. It
is capable of so much change in the cook
ing as Co afford pleasing variety. One
way of stewing tomatoes is to choose very
ripe ones, skin, and slice, rejecting any
hard parts. Put In q pan with salt, but
ter, and pepper, and cock very slightly,
not more than ten minutes. Another
way is to stew the tomatoes until thor
oughly soft, rub them through sieve, and
then cook them down to the desired
thickness. Butter, salt, and pepper, are
the usual seasoning. Those fond of the
favor of onions will find the addition of
chopped onions while cooking, to make
variety. Baked tomatoes are fine.
Choose large fruit, and cut out a cavity
at the stem end fill this with a mixture
of powdered cracker or bread crumbs,
butter, salt or other seasoning, set on a
pan and bake until done. If managed
carefully, the tomatoes retain their shape
Tomatoes may be boiled; cut them in
halves crosswise and put them cut side
down, upon a gridiron over the fire.
When the cut surface is scared, turn them
and put butter, salt, etc, on each, and
cook with the skin side down until done.
The almost universal popularity of the
tomato has led to great variety OF ways
Of eating it. Probably more are con-
sumed raw than in any other way. The
manner of dressing them varies greatly.
Some use only vinegar and salt. Others
vinegar, salt and oil, and others again
vinegar and sugar. We often see them
served with regular salad dressing, but
the general way is to place them upon
the table plain, and allow each one to
suit his own fancy. They are usually
sliced with their skins on, but those who
are very particular about such matters
scald and peel them before slicing, and
the slices are put with pieces of ice to
cool them and restore their 6rmness.
Tomatoes when eaten raw show the
different varieties better than when
cooked.-American Agricuzturast.
