PRIZE CHICKENS ON.
SHOW TOMORROW
Poultry Association Ready For
opening Of Annual Show in
Turn Hall

The Diamond state Poultry and Pet
Stock Association win open it's annual
Show I'm Turn Hall tomorrow morning to
continue four days. There will be five
hundred entries displayed by nearly all Of
the prominent breeders In Wilmington and
it's vicinity. A new feature in connection
with the show this year IS the decision not
to publish the names of entrants until
after awards have been made. This is to
avoid any semblance to favoritism by the
judges While favoritism has never figured
in the awarding of prizes in the history
Of the show, it will satisfy some exhibit
tors that the displays are given awards
solely on their merits.
The Judging will be started tomorrow
so that ribbons may be placed as soon as
possible The coops were placed i'm the
hall this morning and the exhibits will
be in by this afternoon or evening. This
years show promises TO be the best ever
given 10y the association.

Remember These Practical Suggestions
The Next Time You Are TO Have Fish

Nearly all fish 10 be fried are inn
proved by the addition of a teaspoon
ful or two OF lemon juice TO the fat
In which they are cooked.
If when frying fish of any kind a
little salt is sprnkled on the bottom of
the pan when il is hot end fat boil
ing. the fish can be easily turned with
out breaking in the least.
In baking blueiish. score the fish and
insert strips OF pork i'm the gashes. Lay
strips of pork I'm "a dripping pan and
place the fish, well seasoned with salt
and pepper. Rub IL over with little
olive oil or butter and roast in very
hot oven. If il shows signs of brown
ing too fast. cover with a buttered
paper until nearly done. Half a cup
ful of buil.ag water shor'd be thrown
over the fish when il is put into the
oven, and IL should he frequently bast-
ed When the fish is done take up on
n hot platter and garnish with water
cress and sliced lemon. Serve with
rich gravy made by adding a little
flour and water TO the drippings in the
pam Then season with a tablespoon
ful Of kitchen bouquet and two or
three teaspoonfuls Of tomato sauce. If
stuffed fish is liked. make dressing Of
a pint Of breadcrumbs mixed with a
little fnely-chopped pork and season
with salt. pepper, hnely-minced pars-
ley and kitchen bouquet. Put the
stufling into the opening Of the fish
and sew or tie securely.
For fish chowder fry some slices OF
salt pork in. an iron pot. Put i'm a
layer of fish, cut i'm slices, on the pork,
then a layer Of thinly-sliced onions.
and one of sliced potatoes. Repeat
until the quantity desired is obtained.
Season each layer of onions with salt
and pepper. Split hard biscuits and
place them on the sides and tops. Add
water enough to come into sight. When
the potatoes are tender tho dish is
ready. Add half a pint Of milk or
cup of cream and serve.
To scallop fish use fish that has al
ready been cooked. Remove all the
/ bones and shred finely. Place a layer
in p baking-dish. and cover with bread
crumbs and finely-cut cold boiled pota-
toes. Season. and If preferred, a little
shredded onion or hard-boiled egg may
| be added Repeat until the dish Is
full. Finish on the top with bread
crumbs and egg. Pour over this drawn
/ butter, salt. and then brown.

WOMEN SHOULD USE CARE
IN SELECTING HUSBANDS

Because it is the duty of every wo-
man TO marry some man, it by no
means follows that she is deprived
of the privilege Of making acute dis
elimination: on the contrary, to full
fiji her mission as completely as pos
siBle she should exercise the greatest
care in selecting a mate. Time was
when she had 40 say in the matter.
and in some countries she has little or
none to-day, but in this happy civilized
land she still possesses, and viii un-
doubtedly hold for all time, the right
first to choose and then ensnare. IT
Is a noble prerogative-one, in our
Judgment, that should be appreciated
and cherished above all others. And
yet, as we have observed, 1t should be
exercised with caution. Let nothing
be left to chance. as Plato would have
had il decreed that pairing should be
done by lot: while not over-nice, be
at least particular. In order that the
one chosen may feel honored by the
distinction conferred upon him, and so

Rental of Coal Yard and En-
pIoyment of Drayman by
Township Ends.
SYSTEM TOO EXPENSIVE
IN FUTURE, TRUSTEE HoWARTH
SAYS, COAL WILL be DELIVER.
Ed FROM COAL COMPANIES At
A FIXED RATE.

A custom followed by trustees Of
Wayne township for the past twenty
years. it is said, in the handling OF
coal for the poor of the township, has
been eliminated by Trustee James Ho-
warth, since the folly of the practice
las been pointed out to him by
Iessrs. Barrett and Weybright. field
Examiners of the state board of &C
counts.
Last year, the coal which was sup.
piled to the township poor cost the
township Sill ton. Seventy-five tons
of coal were purchased for $275. This
was placed in a township coal yard,
at Twelfth and North G streets, which
was rented from Charles Potter for
$50 a year. In addition to these ex.
penditures, the trustee paid driver
$500 a year to deliver coal and other
supplies. but principally coal. The
last two expense items We're charged
up to coal furnished the poor, which
made the approximate cost per ton
$11. During all these years, the adj
visory boards have been approving OF
this expenditure and not until the field
examiners investigated the matter was
the excessive expenditure noticed
Mr. Howarth stated that hereafter
the coal would be delivered from the
coal yard where it was purchased
The deliveryman will be allowed ex
