Christmas Goose.

In England goose is more often the
Christmas bird than turkey To those
who think of substituting n goose for a
turkey the caution is given that the for
mer, though it may present an ample and
tempting appearance as it is brought to
the table, crisp and aromatic, will serve
by no means generously, as only the breast
Is available. Under the modern treat
ment of removing the tough leg tendons,
thus gaining all the drumstick meat, there
is no edible bird to compare in economy
with the turkey.
