To Cook VEGETABLEs.-A German pro
fessor says that if one portion of a vegetable
be boiled in. pure distilled or rain water,
and another in which little salt has been
added, a decided difference is perceptible
in the tenderness of the two. Vegetables
boiled in pIire water are vastly inferior in
flavor. This inferiority may go so far, in the
the case of onions, that they are entirely
destitute of either taste or odor; though
when cooked in salt water, in addition to
the pleasant taste, is a peculiar sweetness
and strong aroma. They also contain more
soluble matter than when cooked in pure
water. Water which contains onetwentieth
ofits weight in salt is far better, because
the salt hinders the solution or evaporation
of the favoring principles OF the vegetables
