USING FAT FOR FRYING
How 1t May Be Tested to Serve Best
Results for Cooked or Un-
cooked Mixtures.

When the fat begins to smoke, drop
a piece of soft bread into the fat; if it
browns in 40 seconds, it is right tenn
perature for any cooked mixture.
Use the same test for uncooked mix
lures, allowing one minute for bread
to brown. Fresh fat should be used
for batter and dough mixtures. After
these, fish, meat and croquettes, fat
should be frequently clarified.
To Clarify-Melt fat, add raw pota-
to gut in small pieces, heat the fat
gradually; when fat ceases to bubble
and potatoes are we'll Drowned, strain
through double cheese cloth. The POI
tato absorbs any odors or gases and
collects some of the sediments. The
remains will settle in the bottom Of
the pan. When you only have a small
amount of fat to be clarified, add to
the cold fat boiling water, stir vigor-
ously and set aside to cool; the fat
will float to the top, the sediment can
be scraped from the bottom.
To Try Out Fat-Any odd pieces of
fat may be tried out more easily in a
double saucepan than by putting in the
oven; it will then take less watching.
Sauteing is frying in small guam
tity of fat. In many cases the word
sallte should be used in this book
where it is not, as the word is not gen.
orally understood, and SO we have used
the common word "fry," which really
means cooking in deep fat. All foods
when fried should be drained on
paper.
Fricasseeing is sauteing and cooking
in a sauce.
To egg and bread crumb foods for
frying, have stale crumbs rubbed fine,
dip the mixture in the crumbs, then in
the egg, then again in the crumbs. Ore
tablespoon of cold water may be used
with the egg to good advantage.-From

with 258 in 1910, 215 in 1909 The to-
tai number of pure bred stations hav-
ing licenses in good standing in 1911
was 1,514, and during that year pure
bred stations increased 1870 head in
46 Wisconsin counties. No change was
made in 16 counties, while counties
showed a falling off of IA head. Large
numbers of pure bred sires were intro
duced for breeding purposes. The fol-
lowing counties are strongholds of the

otaIe axes NO FdrI IN inquiry
Gov. Francis E. McGovern decided
that the state of Wisconsin would not
be represented by counsel at the Ste
phenson investigation in Milwaukee.
The governor mailed a letter to Chair.
man Hepburn and also notified the
senator by telephone of his decision.
Governor McGovern's letter con.
tains 500 words. In it he stated that
in reply to Chairman Heyburn's tele-
gram requesting him to advise the
committee as to whether it was the
desire Of the state to be represented
by an attorney, that he found there
was serious doubt that he had any
power to act in the matter.
Joint resolution No. SO, to which
you refer" said the governor, "con-
fers no such authority upon me. It
simply requests the United States
senate to investigate the manner.
means and method by which and
through which Isaac Stephenson Sc
cured his election to that body" and
it recommends that the district attor-
ney of Dane county prosecute persons
shown to have committed perjury in
the senatorial inquiry, and suggests
that prosecutions be commenced in
the other counties of the state for
such violations of the corrupt prac-
tees statute as the evidence may
justify"
The governor states that in the abb
sence of any specific authority con-
ferred by this resolution the only
other possible source is chapter 268,
laws of 1911, which after considera-
ton leaves him in doubt as to wheth"
er he is empowered to employ attor
neys at state expense.

Crusade Against Animal Diseases.

State Veterinarian A. H. Hart
wig has started a crusade against
the importation into this state of
animals afflicted with dangerous dis
eases. Mr. Hartwig declares that not
less than $4,000 cattle from the
drought stricken districts of the Da-
kotas and Montana were shipped into
Wisconsin the past month. Some of
these herds were infected, 1t is
said, with bovine tuberculosis. 1t is
the aim of the state department to
weed out the diseased animals as
quickly as they land in this state.
The department is also guarding
against the importation into Wiscon-
sin of western diseases among horses.
All diseased animals shipped into the
state are slaughtered. in accordance
with the provisions of law. and the
owners receive no compensation.

No Credit Sales of State School Lar

No Credit Sales OF State School Land.
That the law passed by the last
legislature providing that state lands
may be sold on credit is invalid inso-
far as it relates to school lands, was
the ruling of Attorney General Ban
croft.
The law provides that state lands
may be sold on credit kpon an initial
payment of Is per cent. of the ap-
praised value, the balance to be paid
at any time within twenty years. 1t
further provides that when the pur-
chaser makes final payment he may
claim a discount of from twenty-five
to fifty per cent of the full value of
the improvements placed upon the
land.
This latter provision Of the law is
held clearly void so far as it relates
to school lands in that it diverts
portion of the purchase price from the
school fund, in violation Of the con-
stitution.
Another aspect of the law which
makes it void as to school land is that
which provides that whenever any sale
of lands is made the contract shall re-
serve to the state for public use one
chain on every side Of any stream,
pond or lake. This feature of the law
is only passed upon in it's relation to
the school lands in the present opin-
ion. There is, however, a nice ques-
tton as to whether the law is not in
valid as to any other state lands.

Fargo, N. D., Sept. 2s.-That John
Young, the man who confessed at Nee
nah, Wis, that he was one Of the Buff
falo, N. D., train robbers, could not
have been one Of the robbers is the be-
lief Of w. F. Redmen, farmer living
near Mapleton, N. D. Mr.. Redmen
came to Fargo today and positively
identified Young as the man who work
ed at the Redmen farm from July to
July 10, the latter date being the night
Of the robbery.
Although Young quit Mr.. Redmen g
employ on the night Of the robbery,
and the latter has not seen him since
until he talked with him in the Cass
county jail today, it is mighty improb-
able that Young is one of the robbers.
The Redmen farm is three miles from
Mapleton, and Mapleton is forty-fve
miles from Valley City, where the rob-
bers first boarded the N. P. train at
- o'clock that night. Young left the
Redmen farm about g O'Clock on the
evening Of July 19. He had to walk
to Mapleton and there were no more
trains either way, between Mapleton
and Valley City, until No. 2 came
through. Moreover, Young's story told
today to Mr.. Redmen does not jibe
with the facts. He said that on that
night he came to Fargo, went from
Fargo to sabin, MINI, and stayed at
the latter town q week before return.
