To a quart of warm water add tea
cupful buttcrmilk, two teaspoonfuls
salt, and enough buckwheat flour to
make thin batter; let it stand over
night. In the morning add a cup OF
warm water in which is dissolved half
a teaspoonful soda. Bake at once on a
hot griddle. BY saving little of the
batter and adding one and half tea
cupfuls of buttermilk each time of
using, it will not be necessary to start
new risings oftener than once in a

To Keep Game Game may often
be made fit for eating when it seems
spoiled by cleaning it and washing ii
with vinegar and water. Birds that
are not likely to keep should be drawn,
cropped and picked, then washed in
two or three waters, and rubbed with
salt. Have in readiness a large sauce
pan of boiling water, and plunge them
into it one by one, drawing them up
and down by the legs, so that the water
may pass through them. Let them
stay for five or six minutes, then hang
them up in a cold place; when they are
completely drained, well salt and pep
per the inside and thoroughly wash
them beforeroasting. Liverpool Mer-
