REAL FARMERS SAUSAGE

is also specially in this household.
When made up in quantity in the au-
tumn the rule calls for forty pounds of
meat. with about three times as much
lean meat as fat; one pound of salt, three
ounces of pepper. one-haf coffee cup full
pf molasses. and a little ginger The lat
ter ingredient be It known, is to keep one
from "eating sausage" all day after hav-
ing had il for breakfast. 1t Is good idea
to always add IL moro especially TO the
butchers sausage. After the meat is
minced and seasoned. pack in pans or
sound muslin bags about half the diam
etcr of a ten-pOund salt bag. If the pan
is covered with melted lard or the bag
dipped in melted lard before being put
away the sausage will keep all winter.
The lard hardening effectually shuts out
the air. and thus preserves the meat
Lean veal makes a good addition to tho
sausage OF may be used as II substitute
for the lean pork, A good veal sausage
Is delicious served with tomato sauce and
grated Parmosan cheese passed on u
separate dish.

1t is evident from DR.. Wcbb's letter
that his objections to the resolution
passed ut the city meeting on January
f. are based on the changes made in the
proposition as submitted by him in his
letter to Mayor Hawley dated. December
Z. 1902. Fear was expressed by some Of
our citizens after the city meeting was
held that the additional restrictions were
too severe, and that DIR. Webb would re-
fuse to be tied down as provided by the
changes made.
The question now is whether the people
of Burlington desire to accept DR. Webb =
proposition simply or give up the project
of securing the general offices and head
quarters of the Rutland railroad.
