HOW TO COOK THE TURKEY
Some Practical Advice Given by "A
Nrxx ELaF

Some Practical Advice Given by a
New York Chef.
There is II chef Ia one Of the large
hotels of New York who k famous for
his roast turkey. Turkey under his
hands comes out not only beautiful
brown, but of II delicious flavor quite
different from any other turkey that
ever was seen. The turkey meat is
positively rich, and even the white
meat that ia generally dry has moist
spicy taste. This is his recipe for
ronst turkey:
Glenn tho turkey with as little ham
ding as possible and rinse with wa
Ter in which II little baking soda has
been dissolved. Now break up about
half n pint of bread crumbs, and into
the crumbs chop two links of pork
sausage STUFF the turkey with this
mixture ana Just before putting into
the oven bind salt pork on the breast
Of the turkey. Remove the pork just
befo.c the turkey is taken from the
oven. :, zen the meat IL carved, its
flavor will be found very superior.
This Is particularly to be recommended
for the Thanksgiving turkey, which,
with so many other dainties rlvallng II,
must be very appetzlng to DO enjoyed.

How the Coed Housewife Prepared
II In OIden Times.
Thanksgiving dinner In the olden
times made unusual demands even up
on the most efficient housewife, and the
serving OF Il dinner to q family party
of from twenty-five to fifty persons IA
a large kitchen of the old fashioned
farmhouse was no light task for the
mistress. But the result was worth all
the trouble entalled In the getting up
of such dinner, and the recollection
OF the roast turkey, chicken pie, baked
Indian and rice buildings. pumpkin and
mluce pies baked In the old fashioned
brick oven, with the other accessories
OF the Thanksgiving dinner, has proved
powerful enough to bring back year
after year TO such homestead the sons
and daughters, the grandchildren, the
aunts. uncles and cousins who had gone
forth from II to enter into the larger
life OF the great cities. The brick oven
has practically disappeared, but the
culinary skill OF the New England
housewife has not, and Thanksgiving
dinner is much the same as OF old.
Even city folks who prefer course
dinner 1884 days IN the year really vel
come a return on Thanksgiving to the
older style of serving dinner. and II IL
this way which generally prevails on
this day.

A contrast between the Thanksgiving
dinner Of half n century ago and that
OF the present time VIII be found more
In the details OF the table decoration
than in the menu itself. Although some
fayorite dishes of the present time have
been added to the list aud perhaps one
or more OF those familiar TO previous
generations omitted, the dinner in the
main Is the same, with roast turkey
cranberry sauce, pumpkin and mInce
pie as essential dishes.
