"A beaten biscuit is southern dish.
1t calls for two quarts of flour, tea
spoonful of salt and two heaping table
spoonfuls of lard, and milk enough to
make stiff dough. Flour it and roll it
out, then lay it on a stone slab or firm
wooden board and pound it with mall
let or large rolling-pin. The dough must
be pounded one hour, until it rises in
blisters and cleaves from the board.
There is machine for pounding this
dough to be found in Baltimore, where
this is a favorite bread We do not know
whether it can be found elsewhere or
not.-N. Y. Tribune.
-Stewed Squashes No one should
say that she does not like squash until
she has tried the following: Gather
summer squashes when they are only
about the size of an egg, wash them
and boil without peeling until tender;
then dress them with cream sauce
made. They are so di fferent from the
ordinary squash when gathered so
small that they taste like different
vegetable. The small squashes sold at
the stores are good cooked in this way,
but they are not gathers for the mar
ket small enough to be as dainty as the
tiny ones.-Christian Inquirer.
.-One of the things which the coun-
try farm house is not likely to have is
iced water, or even sufficiently cool
water. Cool mountain springs read
rhythmically, but they often taste very
warm. An exchange gives as rather
new notion the old one of keeping
water cool in fannel-wrapped vessels
1t serves however, as a good sugges.
tion at this time, when almost every.
body has gone or is going somewhere
for the summer. if the Somewhere"

ments ice water included, get com.
mon earthenware pitcher, the com.
moner the better as it will be the more
porous, wrap it all around, leaving nc
inch of it bare, with wet flannel. KeeE
the flannel wet and the water will
shortly be as cold as is good for drink
ing purposes, almost ice cold.-N. Y.
Times.
-Sweetbreads knucl1le OF
veal, two onions, small piece of bacon
and three pints of water. Let it cook
until it has boiled to jelly, then strain
the gravy from the meat and add TO it a
spoonful of Drowned flour. Cut the
gristle from eight sweetbreads, pour
the boiling water over them, then throw
them into cold water, lard on one side,
and salt the gravy to taste Place the
sweetbreads in Il saucepan so as not to
touch each other, the larded side down
Let them stew slowly, turning them
when they are done on one side. They
should be turned but once and should
be cooked slowly for an hour, then
placed in pan in the oven, the gravy
poured over them, and allowed to bake
until they are well-glazed and shiny.
If there is no oven, put them in pan
before the fire. re.-Housekeeper.
