-Beets: When they are washed the
little fibers and ragged excrescences
should not be broken off, as he juices
of the root will thus be lost. Young
beets boil in an hour, but in the winter
they require from two to three hours.
When tender, put them for a minute
or two into cold water, take them in
your hands and slip off the skins.
This is a much better and easier way
than to remove the skin with knife.
Cut them in slices, lay them into hot
dish, sprinkle them with salt aud pep
per, and little butter. and if YOU
choose vinegar also. 1t is a very goo |
way to cut up all that remain after
dinner. Put on salt and vinegar and
set them aside to be used cold another
day.-Boston Budget.
