Fem Corn Extras.

Corn oysters are good if properly
made. Half CRATE on a rather fine
crater eight ears of corn that is neither
young nor very old, scraping out all
the remaining pulp from the hulls on
the cob. Add to this the beaten yolks
of two eggs, one level teaspoonful Of
salt, one-fOurth as much pepper and
the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff
froth. Fry in little cakes shaped like
oysters in a spider in sweet leaf lard
hot enough not to soak into the batter
readily. If the corn is so watery that
the cakes spread too much, add crack
er dust to make the batter sitter. Use
neither milk nor 1our.-Ella Morris

panion.

until the appointment of conference
committees, by which means an effort
viii be made to reach an agreement be-
tween Senate and House.
