Rocky Ford. The valuation IN
La unta last year. however. was
s,o5I,429, which accounts for
the low tax levy. The property
valuation in La Junta this year is
is s6ss.665.
The high valuation last year in
this city is accounted for by the
fact that the state board of equali-
zation assessed twenty miles Of
Santa Fe sidetrack within the
corporate limits, the aforesaid
sidetrack being valued at the rate
OF Sac, 900 per mile-all same main
line. The Santa Fe has not at thu
present writing paid it's taxes for
the year 1901, this sidetrack as
sessment being one of the items
upon which they make vigorous
kick. They probably never will
pay it. and in that event La Junta's
property valuation for the year
1901 will be cut down $52o, 900.
In the event of a settlement with
the Santa Fe, with this sidetrack
assessment cut out, La unta's
valuation for the year 1901 would
be cut down to S53I,42o-less than
it is this year with the tax rate
only two-fifths as much. This
would work hardship upon this
city and result in tax levy next
year for municipal purposes that
would be simply out of sight-in
up order to make the deficiency.

brain and nerves of the chick, make
suitable, easily digested food for the
young human also.
Eggs, while nitrogenous and fatty,
contain no starch or sugar and they
therefore combine suitably with arti-
cles which supply these ailments.
Eggs are not spoiled by long keep
ing, but are not nearly as digestible
as fresh ones and not SO suitable for
many ways of cooking theh, although
for some methods, such as poaching,
an egg may be too fresh when new
laid eggs can be procured. There is
little danger of the city dweller having
to guard against this contingency, but
quite the reverse. However, it is well
TO know that this possibility will ex-
plain, in some cases, the failure which
results in spite OF all the care of a
skilltul egg poacher.
Those who pride themselves in their
art should selec, eggs that are two
days old not over, as the very new
laid egg is too milky.
BOILING AN EGG.
The principle of boiling an egg is
more difficult to carry out than its sim
plicity warrants. on account of the
many different ideas and likings in
regard to the degree to which an egg
should be boiled,
The fact is, very few people would
fancy an egg which Is properly very
soft boiled, AS they frequently order
it. They would consider ii quite I'M
derdone, as no part of the egg is set,
while the yolk is merely heated
through, TO very soft boil, place the
egg in boiling water for two minutes,
then remove. and immediately serve.
on opening it YOU will find a thin coat
Ing of curdled white next to the shell,
while the remainder OF the white is
thick and milky, but not set" and
the yolk Is simply warm, The three
minute boil is the preferred way and
considered the most digestlble, while
the egg has more flavor when boiled
longer. In three minutes the white

but the yolk remains fluid. The solid
boil requires longer than three and less
than ten minutes, while the hard boil
may be continued until the white pas
ses the hard, elastic Shiny stage and
both white and yolk reach granular
consistency, which stage is considered
more dlgestible by some, but less
good in taste.
. POACHED EGGS.
This process is boiling the egg with
the shell removed. And yet it must not
be understood that possible failure
cannot attend this method ms WELL
The principal rule to be observed, how
ever. is selecting eggs in. proper con-
dition as to age. This accomplished,
the road to success is as follows: Half
fill your frying pan with clear, boil
ing water and place over the fire, add
a little salt and vinegar; break an egg
carefully into a cup; place the pan
where the water will keep below the
boiling point; slip In the egg; then
break another and quickly add in the
same way and continue to add as
many as the pan will hold without
crowding. Let themastand until the
whites are set, then place where the
water will come to a boil, then direct
ly remove the eggs with IA slice or
straining ladle; trim the ragged edges;
a large cake cutter can be used for
this purpose, and place each on a
dainty round of nicely toasted bread.
The eggs may be kept in good shape
by placing muffin rings In the pan of
boiling water and dropping the eggs
into them.
This toast may first be spread with
anchovy paste or butter, mushroom or
Worcestershire sauce or a little curry
sauce or grated cheese, before the eggs
are placed on the slices. Such dishes
are nice for simple luncheon, as they
are tasty and quite substantial for a
light meal with n cup of coffee or CO.
Goa and salad
FRIED EGGS.
These perhaps are more frequently
called for by the wayfarer than any
other food, After an exhaustive study
of the restaurant menu the average
traveller will compromise on "Oh, GIN
me fried eggs" Not an unpalatable
or unattractive dish from the hands
of skillful egg cook" but like the
boiled or poached egg, dish easily
spoiled
The ordinary way is TO break the egg

Substitution
in Drug Stores
II Robs the Manufacturer and
SwindleS the Public.
New York Journal and American

We again call the attention to the dis
honest practice of substituting an In
ferior article for that which is demand
ed. on the ground that the one substi-
tute is "just as good.'
The druggist who INDUCES in the
game of substitution is open to criti-
cism from many points Of view.
In the first place, he is ungrateful
to the men who manufacture, and who,
through widespread publicity, promote
the druggists business and profits.
If a man spends hundreds of thou
sands of dollars in advertising, and as
n result sends customesr to druggist,
1t is extremely ungrateful as well as
dishonest for the druggist to prevent
the normal sale, and for the sake of
q few extra pennies to substitute an
inferior article.
Substitution is dishonest toward the
public The druggist is asked for II
certain remedy or other well-known
and valuable article.
He replies that he has something
else .'just as good" or better, and often
adds:
II make this myself and know just
what it contains
AS matter OF fact, he rarely or
never makes it himself, he does MOI
know what it contains. He simply
patronizes one of the numerous con
Germs that make a business of putting
on the market cheap substitutes to de-
ceive the public.
II druggist offers you something
"just as good" you may be sure that
he has not very high opinion of your
intelligence or of your Importance. He
does not tell his BEST customers what
they want to buy, he does not tell
THEM that they don't know what
they want. he takes good care to give
them just what they ask for, because
he wants to keep their custom.
For those whom he considers inferior
or transient customers he reserves his
phrases about something Just as
good that he makes himself.
II you ask druggist for II certain
f,Ia 1, ,i,. .,I
lust as good" tell him that YOU
know what you want, and that you will
patronize a drug store that gives you
credit for ordinary intelligence.
You might ask the clerk who wants
you to take something "just as good"
whether he will accept n button in
place of the half dollar owing him, on
the ground that the button is Just as
good and that you know personally
what 1t contains.
The substituting druggist who wants
dollar will no accept anything else as
''just as good He reflects on your
intelligence; he thinks that you don't
know what you want, or believe that
you will not insist on having It,
The system Of substitution encour-
ages adulteration of goods and encour-
ages dishonesty. 1t dlscourages the
work of energetic men. 1t is the duty of
the public to stop the practice and
that 1t can easiy do by pntronizing
merchants who keep and sell what the
public wants.

into fiat frying pan allowing the
eggs to spread as they will; this gives
them the ragged unsightly appearance
not pleasing to dainty eaters. At
small cost one can obtain pan which
has little wells into which each egg
Is broken, similar to the poacher; in
this way the eggs are kept in good
shape, preventing the whites from
thinning out into dry, uneven edges
and getting too hard. This same uten-
sill is used for baking eggs in the oven.
Do not brown the egg or fry it too
long unless you are fond of chewing
tough food. A little Drowned butter
may be poured over the eggs, as a
sauce, when they are done, adding a
little vinegar to give 1t zest, or while
the eggs are cooking haste them con
tinually with the fat in the pan but
do not turn them. A properly fried
egg is scarcely distinguished from a
poached one, except in flavor. A slice
of onion or sprig of parsley is some
times put into the pan and heated with
the fat to give flavor to the egg; also
a little tarragon vinegar.
EGGS, PEASANT STYLE.
Put half pint of rich milk or
cream into baking dish. and when
boiling hot break in carefully twelve
eggs; add green sweet pepper cut in
strips, pinch of salt and cook ten
minutes; then set in the oven for
about three minutes, until the eggs
are a golden color, but not hard. Re-
move at once and serve from same
dish 81.

EGG COOKERY.
FOOD AKIN TO FISH, FLESH AND
FOWL.


FOWL.
Although eggs are SO universally
used and hold conspicuous place on
every hotel and restaurant bill of fare,
the methods of cooking are not as
numerous, or In many cases as dainty,
as the nature Of this class of food
will permit,
The most common, because consider
ed the most wholesome and conven-
lent ways of cooking them, are boil
ing, poaching and frying, and the re-
suit varies through all the several de-
grees of good, bad and indifferent.
There seems to be as little certainty
about cooks performance in this
line as there is In regard to the con
dition and quality of the egg.
Some authorities give high esti-
mate of the food value of the egg,
Whlie others hold quite opposite view
even going so far as to consider it very
poor adult food almost destitute of
taste MS well us lacking in food value
although they concede that It's organic
substance, the ''phosphori2ed ingre-
dients' which are mainly materials
intended for the construction of the
