ROAST TURKEY.

The best way to prepare 3 turkey is
to bake ii with breast down. Most
housekeepers will bake a turkey with
it's back to the pan, but this is a
mistake. The breast should be turned
to the bottom of the pan and instead of
being dry and tasteless when served
II is richly favored, and sweet Inc
juicy, as II should be. The 1avoring of
the turkey, and the juice of the dress
ing all flow downward toward the
breast of the turkey. and so when the
white meat is served you win get the
full benefit of every flavor added dur
ing the processes of preparing and
baking. in addition to the distinctive
taste of the fowl itself.

Profits From Fire.

Excellent progress is being made in putting out the fire at the Lowell shaft of the Copper Queen company, accord ing to a dispatch from Bisbee. Water is being flooded into the blaze between the HOO and 1900 levels with good ef- feet. The water which flows out of the 1900 ievel is highly impregnated with copper. This is being precipitated over old tin cans and scrap iron, depOsiting copper. The metal deposited in this way will more than pay for the fire fight.
 At the Holbrook shaft of the same company, where fire ragged for sev- eral months, the bulkheads which sep arated the burning drifts from the rest of the mine have been taken down, the fire having been entirely conquered.
 April 1 will witness the start upon sinking the new shaft for the Copper Queen company between the Lowell and South Bisbee properties. It will be known as the Dallas. The wagon road to the new site has been completed. The drills and hoist will operate by com pressed air.
