FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Fried Potatoes.


The name Fried Potatoes of course
means potatoes that are fried, but how
different the article in different places.
The elements, so to speak, potatoes and
lard, are the same everywhere, but in
one case we get fat-soaken slice and
at another real delicacy. Certain
hotels and restaurants make u special
lty of fried potatoes. aud every one
has heard of Moons Saratoga potatoes
that are eaten as luxury as one
would eat popcorn or bon bons. The
Saratoga and other fried potatoes are
apparently without grease, with a
crisp surface, mealy interior, and
altogether delicious. "Why can't we
have such 2" askes Paterfamilias when
he returns from the city or a watering
place. The good wife might answer
that he might have just such if he
would go to the trouble and expense.
The first essential is to have the
potatoes all sliced of an even thickness.
This in large establishments is accom-
plisbed by means of an apparatus in
which board has knife fastened in
1T after the manner of sour. krout cut
ter or dried beef slicer, the edge of the
knife placed far enough above the level
OF the board to give the required thick
ness. The peeled potatoes are put in a
frame which slides back and forth over
the knife, and this has follower to
keep the potatoes in place. BY means
of this large quantity can be sliced
and with the greatest uniformity. The
ext requisite is kettle with an abund-
ancc of very hot lard, and the next a
wire cage. The sliced potatoes are plac-
ed in the cage, pumped into the lard,
and at the proper instant, which can
only be learned by experience, they by
means of the cage are all withdrawn at
once. A few shakes free them from all
sdhering fat, and if the operation IS
properly done the potatoes may be
served on napkin without greasing it.
All these are necessary in order to have
fried potatoes to perfection.
We have had satisfactory results
from carefully slicing the potatoes with
knife and letting them fall into ice
water; taking out handful at time,
putting them into towel, and giving
them few jerks to dry them, and then
popping them into fat, from which as
soon as done were removed by large
skinner. Then another portion was
done. The use of ice-water tends
greatly to preserve the crispness. The
restaurant of Madame Mouquin in New
York city is great resort for artists,
and the Madame is celebrated for her
fried potatoes which, probably in def
ference to the artistic taste of her Wis
itors, she serves in an elegantly crimp-
ed form. OF course great excellence
an this as in many other methods is
done upon large scale, but by taking
proper pains the home made article
can be greatly improved. american

Patrons of Husbandry.

Nine men and four women is the
smallest number that can organize.
though a larger number is desirable.
We usually organize with from twenty
to forty. The entrance fee for charter
members, is three dollars for males
and fifty cents for females.
Those who join after organization,
must be ballotted for, be initiated, and
take the degrees regularly as in other
secret societies. The fee in such cases
is five dollars for men and two dollars
for women for the four degrees. Char
ter members are instructed in the
work OF the four degrees of the organ.
ization.
The objects and purposes OF the or
ganization are manifold. Prominent
among them are the dissemination OF
information on agricultural subjects,
the encouragement of experiments with
view to improvement in the methods
of farming, the introduction of improv.
ed seeds and implements, and the pur-
chase of all supplies needed by the
members of the oranges, at reduced
prices, etc.
The Good Points IN the Kouen Duck.
We have raised Rouen ducks for
three seasons, and they are growing in
favor on the farm and, Judging from
sales, elsewhere. They are without
doubt the descendants of the Mallard,
and are the result of persistent breed
ing for size through many generations.
They are the Shorthorns of the duck
family, growing with great rapidity,
and attaining a larger size ut maturity
than most other varieties. II is not
uncommon for them to weigh four
pounds at two or three months old,
making them very desirable to raise foI
the summer market at watering places,
where poultry brings the highest price.
AT maturity they will weigh from eight
to ten pounds If well fed, which is q
matter of Importance IN raising Rouens.
They are very superior layers, begin.
ming quite early in the spring and not
unfrequently laying in the fall. They
are more careful of laying in the nest
than the other varieties, and there is
much less danger Of losing eggs when
they have their liberty. The eggs are
large and of excellent quality. They
are as domestic as dung hill fowls,
never wandering far from the yard. II
they have fresh water in trough every
day 1t will meet all their wants, and
they will thrive nicely For the duck
lings, a shallow vessel like bake pan,
an inch or two deep, answers a good
purpose. Clean, fresh water every day
is OF more importance than the auanti-
ty. The secret of large growth does
not lie altogether in imported stock of
the largest size. The large stock il OK.
ceedingly desirable, but IL will soon
deteriorate without full feed and con.
slant attention. II You want Rouens
of large size iced regularly and often
from the time the dueklings begin u
eat until they attain maturity. Coarse
