THE PICNIC PARTY.

In these days of swift transportation
by auto, when a few friends, shady
nook at the waters edge is found, the
picnic hampers unloaded and the men
of the party hunt up the drift wooo
for a good fire, all are ready Tor the
hearty picnic supper.
BY digging a hole in the ground
laying in a few stones and covering
with Goals, a fireless cooker can be
improvised for roasting corn and po-
tatoes the like of which is hard to
beat. A good stove is made with
piece of heavy screening or piece OF
sheet iron. Build a fire and place sew
eral rocks to support the stove, then
set on the coffee pot and the pail OF
water or the frying pan, and every
thing may be cooked In short time.
Aluminium cups and plates are light,
but more expensive than the paper
goods of which there is now an as
sortment.
A picnic is not a dinner party, and
when one tries to make it one the JOY
of the outing is spoiled.
The thermos bottles, which Will
carry hot or cold drinks. are very nice
for a picnic.
The usual picnic dishes are those
that may be carried easily. Sand
wiches are the main starter, and fruit
of all kinds is always appreciated.
Chicken sandwiches are usually the
preferred of all kinds. Lamb also
makes a good sandwich filling.
Cream cheese with olives or stuffed
olives and walnuts all put through the
meat chopper make a delicious filling
mixed with mayonnaise dressing.
Deviled eggs each wrapped in waxed
paper and sections of orange prepared
at home and wrapped in waxed paper
are nice little relishes.
Fried chicken, each piece wrapped
In a waxed paper, is very nice way
to serve that always popular dish.
Small sponge cakes that have been
followed out and the centers filed
with whipped cream, then the slice
from the top replaced. make dainty
dessert with fresh berries or fruit
Nothing tastes better than good rich
doughnuts well sugared. with hot
cup of coffee for dessert.
When one is picnicing the simple.
wholesome, old-fashioned substantiais
are those most appreciated.

DISHES NEW OR UNUSUAL.

We are constantly looking for new
dishes to vary the monotony of our
diet The following are some that
will appeal toathe tastes of some.
/ A Farmers Dainty Dish.-The size
of the pot will depend upon the size
of the family and its appetite. Peel
and slice five potatoes and one small
onion; take half a pound of sweet salt
pork. cut in thin slices, pound OF
veal or beef cut in small pieces; short
en- some bread dough and line the bot
tom of creased stew pan, put in a
few slices of pork, then a layer OF
meat. potatoes and onion; dust with
pepper and salt and cover with layer
of bread dough. Repeat until the dish
is full; finish with a crust on top and
pour over sufficient boiling water to
cover. Cook at the simmering tenn
perature until the vegetables are SOFT
The season FOR venison will soon be
here Just try this when you are for
tunate enough to have a steak: Rub
the steak with little butter, and lay
1t in hot pan; when cooked on one
side turn it over and add a table
spoonful of orange juice and two Of
currant jelly. Simmer gently for about
twelve minutes. Season with salt and
pepper and serve.
This is a nice dish for a chatting
dish party and can be easily prepared
at the table.
Rabbit With Herbs.-Cut rabbit in
pieces and place it in stew pan with
butter, parsley, chives. mushrooms.
bayleaf and thyme chopped fine. Add
suffi cient water to cook, and simmer
until the rabbit is tender. When ready
to serve add a spoonful OF -four to the
gravy to thicken it.
Wild duck are delicious roasted
without stufing, using instead bunch
of celery in each bird. Do not serve
the celery.
VII duck is better served a little
more underdone than tame duck
oxtaiI soup.-Take two tails and
put into a kettle with a gallon OF
water and a little salt. When the
meat is well cooked take out the
bones, add onion. carrot and tomatoes
and boil an hour longer.
