SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN

No chicken weighing more than
two and one-half pounds should be
used. When cutting up the chicken
leave the breast whole and the sec
ond joint attached 10 the leg. Dip
all the parts into we'll beaten egg and
then into seasoned -four. Fry the
chicken over a quick fire, keeping
just enough lard in the pan to keep
1t from burning. The pan must be
covered as soon as the chicken is put
into 1t, as the steam makes the chick
en- tender, and it must be turned as
quickly as possible every three or four
minutes. 1t requires but twenty min
utes to fry painful when the chicken
weighs about two pounds. After it
has been fried and removed to the
platter, which should be kept in the
oven to keep warm, make the gravy.
This should be served in a separate
dish and not poured over the crisp
brown chicken.
Into the lard left in the pan put
enough -four to make a thick paste.
Add water to make the desired con-
sistency, letting it boil a couple Of
minutes. Into this gravy put the
we'll mashed yolks of two hard boiled
eggs and slice both yolk and white
of third hard boiled egg. Add sea-
soning to suit taste.-Boston Post.

FOLLOWS TAFT's PLANS.
Bill Creating Court of Commerce In
troduced in the House.

Washington, Spccial.-Representa-
tive Townsend of Michigan intro
duced in the House last Tuesday the
bill embodying the recommendations
outlined in the special message Of
President Taft for amendments to
the interstate commerce law. It
provides, among other things, for q
special court composed of five Fed
eral circuit judges to have exclusive
original jurisdiction over matters
growing out of orders of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
This court is to be composed Of
five circuit judges who shall serve
by assignment of the chief justice
for a term of five years, but no two
of the judges terms will expire at
the Same time, and thus under all
circumstances four of the judges will
have had several years experiences
with these technical questions.

Washington. d. C.-Whether the
thirteenth census, on which the Gov
eminent expects to spend at least
100000 and probably more, will
reflect correct picture of the Nation,
It's people, their lives and resources.
Is going to depend as largely upon the
people themselves as upon the Census
Bureau and its $4,000 enumerators
who will be engaged In the work.
Director Durand makes this asser-
tion In his annual report to Secretary
Nagel, of the Bureau OF Commerce
and Labor. While the report reviews
the work OF the bureau for the last
year, a great part of 1t deals with
PREPARATIONS for the coming census.
