For the first time in the history of the

Green Corn.

Corn in its immatu state is one of
our choicest fresh vegetables if it can
be cooked and eaten the day it is gath
ered-otherwise much of its sweetness
and flavor is lost. The tender, juicy
part Of the grain is wholesome and nu-
tritious but the tough skin should be re-
jected. as it is-espeCially after cooking
quite indigestible.
Select green corn that has young, ten
der, well-flled ears. When the grains
are broken with the finger nail the juice
should start readily.
The grain of the green corn, or roast
ing ear, is small and too easily swal-
lowed and seldom sufficiently mastica-
ted; for that reason. when eaten too
hastily and without removing the COW
ering of bran, it is apt to cause disturb
anoes in the stomach. The tough little
envelope is easily disposed of by scour-
ing the grains and scraping out the sue
culent pulp.

tom, first ridiculed. but soon adopted by

One mode of serving is to cut away
one row of grains and then boil for 20
minutes: serve in a folded napkin and
eat with salt and butter Another is to
strip off the outer leaves entirely, draw
down the inner husks and remove the
silk; then replace the inner layer of
huslzs and boil until the Juice win no
longer ooze when the grain is pierced.
Do not salt the water in which the
corn is boiled. as this viii make the
bran tough and shrivel the grain.
