To Wet Fry.

This method constitutes real frying; the
term so absued and misused by most cooks.
The first consideration is to have sufficient
fat to cover the article entirely, in order
that the heat may be conveyed to every
part in uniform manner, and a the same
time above and below; the cooking done
quickly. so that the flavor of the food is
not destroyed or the fat allowed time to
penetrate.

their orders. Two years ago IL was
supposed that the mines then opene

Alaska has become an important cus-
toner, and the demand from San
Francisco is greater than ever. Rail-
road and steamship lines are using
immense quantities compared with
their needs heretofore.
Recently local consumers in the
cities have been put upon short ton
basis. paying the same price for 1000
pounds that they formerly paid for

vice has drawn heavily upon the coal
mines Of Washington and all the ves-
sells in the Cape Nome trade have

Some of these vessels have been re
fused. The Renton mines have shut
down. their employees having struck for
higher wages. II Is yet uncertain
whether shipments to San Francisco
