GOOD CHEER FOR CHRISTMAS.
The Turkey.

1t sometimes happens that the wor-
ry and the work incidental to Christ
mas preparations are greatly increas-
ed by the false notion that the cook
ing, to be<properly done, must neces-
sarily be unusually long and COM
plicated. AS matter of fact. there
is no better way Of cooking turkey
than to roast it before a clear fire.
basting it continually. This, how
ever, is not always possible, and
many people are obliged to use gas
stoves. In such a case it should be
borne in mind that if the gas be
turned too full on the flesh will be
done before the forcemeat with which
the bird is stuffed has fairly begun
to cook. Therefore, taking, for in
stance, turkey weighing ten pounds,
and having filed the inside with any
desired forcemeat, heat the oven of
the gas stove for ten minutes, and
put two or three tablespoonful of
good beef dripping in the dripping
pan. Spit the turkey securely, leave
the gas full on for five minutes, then
reduce the gas to half full on, and
cook for two hours and quarter;
turn the gas full on, and in ten min
utes it will be ready for the table.
The Stufing.
A most important factor in the
success Of roast turkey is the stufing.
Sausage meat is the usual ingredient
employed, made as follows: Take
two parts Of lean pork to one of fat.
Mix this with an equal quantity of
bread crumbs, a good slice of butter
and a seasoning of salt, pepper and
mace. Pound all together in NOR
tar and bind with the yolks of cou-
pie Of eggs. Oysters make an excel
lent forcemeat for roast turkey. Get
eighteen or twenty very fresh oys-
ters, beard them, ana cut them into
quarters. Crate enough bread
crumbs to fill half-pint measure,
and an ounce and half Of butter in
small pieces. Mix all these together
with good havoring of herbs and a
seasoning of salt, pepper and grated
nutmeg. Bind with two well-beaten
eggs.
