A Chapter on Mushrooms

The few in this town who delight
in this table delicacy got their fill of
mushrooms last week after the heavy
rains-and there we're also some few
who tried them for the first time
and came near throwing a fit. The
fungi probably were not properly pre-
pared. 1t needs a cook who under
stands the art of preparing them.
The mushrooms should first be peel
ed, after removing the stems, as one
would strip a banana. Then care
fully washed in cold water to remove
any dirt that has attached to them in
gathering. Heat a skillet or frying
pan and put in just enough butter
to keep the mushrooms from burn
ing and fry for As minutes, turn
ing them frequently. A mushroom is
about 80 per cent water and in cook
ing them they shrink to less than a
quarter of their original size. The
water cooked out of them mingles
with the butter and assists in the
frying. Sprinkle a a little salt: over
them in the process of cooking, but
only a pinch or two. When done
serve on a hot platter. The dining
car cooks and other experts usually
make a brown gravy from the drip
pings and pour over the mushrooms
when serving. The stems make de-
licious soup, cooking them as oysters
are cooked, but they should be cooked
30 minutes and tnlckened with milk.
The books say that there are over
60 varieties Of edible mushrooms, but
this writer has never seen but one
kind-so far as he knows. They are
OF one nights growth and should be
picked in the morning while the gills
are pink. BY moo they have turned
a light brown and at night are dark
brown and on the following day black
at which time they are too cid to
eat. Toadstools and all varieties of
the fungi family unfit to eat are either
white underneath as well as on top or
black, and they will not peel like the
true mushroom. The edible mush.
room has a rich aromatic odor, the
Others have not. If salt is sprinkled
on a poisonous mushroom on the under
side it will turn black. 1t is safe to
say that one is safe in eating any
mushroom with pink gills and the top
Of which can be easily peeled. At
least this writer has eaten bushels Of
them, you might say, and lives to tell
the tale. One reads often of mush-
room poisoning, but we have never
learned of a case of i'll effects from
eating the true mushroom as here
described.
According to our way of thinking a
fresh mushroom properly cooked IS
the finest table dellcacy that grows,
swims or flies.
Spring mushrooms are a discovery
to the writer, and it is only under un-
usual conditions that they are found.
The spawn must be developed by hot
days while the moisture is sufficient
to cause fermentation and followed by
heavy rains. 1t was the warm days of
April which made them possible this
spring.

cLATE TiNAN
jtficiaI Paper Of the CITY and County
GIVE THE GIRLS A CHANGE

An Atkinson girl of Is gets up i'm
the morning, eats breakfast which
her mother has prepared, goes up
stairs and takes care of her room, and
then goes downtown. sometimes TAX.
ing two hours to buy a spool of thread.
She eats dinner which her mother has
prepared, wears clothes her mother
has made, spends the afternoon read
ing story books or gaddlng with her
friends, eats supper her mother has
prepared, and spends the evening with
her girl friends. She has done moth
ing wicked all day. and her mother is
satisfied that She is bringing her up
right. But is she?-AtchinSon Globe.
Well, that depends on the girl. If
she hasn't the right kind of stuff in
her she wouldn't amount to hill of
beans no matter how she was brought
up. You might as well try to fertilize
a brick as to attempt the education of
a fool OF a boy or make a woman out
OF a Anticipated girl. The simple
fact that a doting mother gives her all
the time to the enjoyment OF youth
full pleasures, which she herself more
than likely received through the ten
der solicitude OF her once dear depart
ed mother, does not necessarily spoil
the girl. Some of the best wives the
GRAPHIC ever knew never knew what
it waS to do Il days homework or take
a stitch for themselves. But when the
cares of married life came to them
they arose grandlY to tie opportunity
and made even better ho~usekeepers,
wives and mothers than the mothers
who bore them. Perhaps it was the
sweet memory Of a devoted and saint
ed mother that made them living
examples of the life that was set be-
fore them in their t%honghless, YOUTH
full days. For our part, we'd rather
risk a girl for a wife brought up in
ana care-1ree, everything else
being equal, than one who looks upon
her venture into matrimony as the
end of the serious problem of life.
There are girls who have grown up in
ease and who have kicked great black
and blue welts in the lap Of luxury,
yet who are more ready and willing to
accept a little rough weather than the
poor girl who has stood for eighteen
years looking through the soiled win
dow of life waiting for the rain to
rinse it off and let the sunlight
through that she might see her ap-
preaching lord.

u Iolp YOU So
Our friend, Grant Dewell of til

Our friend, Grant Dewell OF the
Pierre Free Press, arises to remark:
If Editor Clate Tinan of the
kimball Graphic, derives any sat-
iSfaction from saving, 81 told you
SOL anent the Milwaukee extern
sion from Chamberlain. he is en-
titled to 1T. We hope he doesn't
still consider the country to be
traversed by the new line as chad
lands"
No we do not consider Lyman coun-
ty as chad lands"m never so intlm-
ated. But we certainly did tell the
truth when we stated over and over
again that the G. NJ. & st. Paul road
had definitely decided to cross the
Missouri at Chamberlain and extend
to the Black Hills, and that with a
year. During the last few months of
the capital campaign we sent the fol-
lowing item out to over one hundred
state newspapers:
The Mitchell people are not run
ming their campaign on promises
and assurances of railroad building
which they know no more about
than anybody else. 1t is not likely
that the G. NJ. & st. Paul com
pany is quite ready to take any
body into It's confidence Ove a
matter involving such tremendous
interests and in comparison with
which the location of a state CAPT.
tai Is a very small matter until its
plans are fully matured, even
though to do otherwise might land
the capital at Mitchell. The COM
pany is playing for bigger stakes.
We are no prophet or the son of a
prophet. but we knew absolutely just
what we were talking about, as pre-
sent events are abundantly demon
strating.

Nan Patterson is free. District at

fourth trial would result in another
disagreement Of the jury. Jerome
says that the last jury were convinced
of three points, ~ that Smith, Mans
brother-in-law, bought the revolver Of
the pawnbroker, (2) that Nan took the
revolver into the cab with her, and
|(3) that Caesar Young did not commit
suicide. Nan has gone home to Wash

DOWN THE SHAFT
WILL CAMPBELL FALLS 20 FEET
IN HIS SLEEP.
Walked Down the Elevator Shaft
Was Not Seriously In
jured.

Early this morning Mr.. Will
Campbell, of the Dorherty Dry GoodA
store met with peculiar and painful
accident.
Mr.. Campbell rooms above the
store and last night he walked to
the freight elevator in his sleep and
fell 25 feet down the shaft, landing
on his left side. The left foot, hip
and arm were badly bruised by the
fall. Mr.. Campbell, in falling struck
the top of the elevator and in some
way started the elevator going down
ward. He crawled back up the steps
and retired thinking that the bruises
were of little consequence.
Dr. P. H. Stewart was called this
morning and though no bones were
broken. Mr.. Campbell was suffering
great deal of pain. DR.. Stewart
had him removed to the Riverside
hospital, where he is resting nicely
today.
