A most timely and valuable article
appeared in the HERALD on Friday
morning on poultry raising and the
profits thereof. There is . great deal to
learn about the poultry business and the
methods Of cooking poultry. Some
persons, who claim to be epicurean in
taste think that no poultry Is so good as
spring chickens, and that fowl year
cld i rather too old to be delicious.
Such ideas are delusions. A hen four or
six years old IL a. much better than o
Young chicken - full grown beef l.
richsr than young veal. All depends
ON the cooking. An old hen should be
slowly boiled for two or three hours and
then roasted, when It will not only be
tender ~ chicken but have more rich
nsss and favor.
A most unfortunate runaway occurred
yesterday on Aliso and Center streets.
in which the team Of Mr.. L. Whitcomb,
frightened by butchers' wagon. whose
driver was shouting ON a loud key,
dashed around into Center street
throwing out the driver who escaped
unhurt, after which The horses became
sntangled in the harness in such q
manner a. to cut of the leg Of one Of
the four horses. The wagon and the
rest Of the horses escaped without much
damage. The wounded horse was shot
by the police. Whitcomb is looking for
the man who scared his team, to compel
him to pay damages.
That funny paper called Puck at
tempts to poke fun at Esop for his dis.
paraging remarks about the fox that
called grapes sour because he could not
reach them, and goes ON to state that
foxes do not eat grapes. Puck is badly
of on this question. Foxes, coyotes,
wolves and many dogs, in fact nearly all
these varieties Of the canine species in
California are ravenously fond Of grapes,
and do much mischief in vineyards.
The amount Of grapes that coyote can
destroy Il simply enormous. Esop was
right and Puck is wrong.
