THE HOUSE ANDF FARM.
Some New Recipes.
BAKED EGGs-Beat up six eggs, one
tablespoonful Of flour, six Of sweet
milk, melt piece of butter in the frying
pan; when hot turn the whole in and bake
in very hot oven; to be served as soon as
done.
TAP1oCA CREAM-Put two tablespoon
fuls of tapioca to soak in cold water; set it
on the stove; and, when thoroughly dis
solved pour in a quart of milk. When this
begins to boil, stir in the yolks of two eggs
we'll beaten, with cup of sugar. When
this boils, stir in the whites, beaten to a
stiff froth, and take it Immediately from
the fire. Flavor to taste.
CHOCOLATE BLANC MANGE.-One quart
of milk (take cupful from the quart and
soak one ounce Of gelatine in it for one
hour; four heaping tablespoonful of
grated chocolate rubbed up with a little
milk; three eggs the whites and yolks
beaten separately, cupful OF sugar and a
tablespoon of vanilla; heat the milk to boil
ing, then pour in the gelatine and milk and
stir till it is Dissolved; add the sugar to the
beaten yolks, and stir till tits smooth, beat
the chocolate into this, and stir a spoonful
at a time of the scalding milk upon the
mixture, return to the inner saucepan and
heat gently till it almost boils, remove from
the fire and turn into bowl, then beat in
lightly and quickly the beaten whites, then
pour into the molds. which must be wet in
cold water and set away to cool.
HOMEMADE Bo1oGNAs-Select good
piece Of meat-the upper part of the leg,
being free from fat, is the best. I have
made it with rump, but think leg keeps bet
ter. Everything depends on the fine divi-
sion of the meat. use chopping ma
chine first, andpound it thoroughly after
ward. My proportions are - pounds of
beef to four of rather lean bacon. For the
seasoning, six cloves of garlic, four table
spoonfuls Of Cadiz salt, pounded fine, a
tablespoonful of ground black pepper, a
teaspoonful of cayenne, teaspoonful of
ground allspice, teaspoonful of ground
mace, and four tablespoonfuls of ground
ginger, tablespoonful each of sage, mar
jorum, and thyme. Mix the ingredients
fully before adding to the meat. Then
work it all up with the hands. Fill your
sausage-skins with the mixture; do not
try to force to much meat in the skins; the
sausages should be fairly plump, but not
hard. They shrink in curing Tie III lengths
of six inches with strong pack thread, pass
it around at least four times, hang them in
smoke-ho Bologna sausages want
fully two weeks before they are cured
about half the time of ham. I use for
smoking hickory bark and smother it with
oak sawdust. Do not beafraid to taste the
mixture before filling, as peoples taste diff
fer as to seasoning.
t Wool Growers and Wool Breeders.
At the meeting last week in Washington
of the wool growers and wool breeders Of
| the United States, the wool growers pres
ent represented focks aggregating 32,769
sheep, valued at 1871 $40. Numbers Of in
teresting papers were read upon sheep cul-
ture. Keller of Leman Dessang, Australia,
an extensive sheep grower, stated that one
of the most odious laws at its inception and
afterward one of the most popular measures
ever enforced by the government, was the es-
Enlistment of a commission to secure the
eradication Of the infectious diseases among
domesticated animals: Mr. Keller
the purpose of locating an extern
and shepherds from Australia, believing
wool can be grown as cheaply with the add
ed advantage of a much better market. John
L. Hayes. president of the National Associ-
alton of Wool Manufactures, read paper
upon the product required by looms, and
the best method of producing them in the
United States. He attributed the falling
off in the production of fine wool to the fact
that manufacturers will not pay high price
for fine wool because the present fashions
have created a demand for coarse Clothes
The following resolutions were adopted:
That it is advisable that the department
of agriculture institute register Of differ
ent breeds of sheep and cattle in the United
States; that this convention earnestly urge
upon congress the importance of establish
ing in the District of Columbia an expert
mental farm to be maintained at the expense
quiring and maintaining the best species of
domestic animals, and especially of sheep
and cattle for distribution among States.
