the night before an even teacupful of
hominy, and pour upon it enough cold
water just to cover it. Cover it up, and
next morning pour into farina kettle
pint of rich milk and a saltspoonful of
salt. Fifteen minutes boiling will cook
it sufficiently, but half an hour will
make it better. As it is in double kct-
tie there will be no danger of burning,
and it needs only an occasional stirring
with silver spoon. If you have plenty
of cream it will improve it, and small
bit of fresh butter does not come amiss.
Eat with cream and sugar, or butter and
sugar. 1t is very nice with soft boiled
egg incorporated with its melting lus-
ciousness, and it is perfect sliced when
cold and fried. Between hominy cooked
thus and hominy boiled in water there is
a great difference. No breakfast cereal
should ever be cooked in anything but a
double farina kettle; small ones of block
tin are nice for the purpose. These ket-
ties obviate constant attendance in stir
ring, and 50 make a breakfast dish of this
healthful kind one of the easiest to pro-
vide and one of the hardest for a cook
to spoil SO long as she follows simple
directions

In no fewer than six different places it
had been bitten through sufficiently to
stop all communication.
