MAYOR HARRISON
BEST AS COOK

CHICAGO February Mayor Har
rison is the best ever when a. comes
to cooking This leaked out today
when the mayor himself admitted it,
his wife backed him up in his asser-
ton and a cook and a maid in the Har.
rison household enthusiastically bore
witness that the mayor is a world beat
err when it comes to making naky
white biscuits-you know the kind
and frying bacon to just the right de-
gree of crispness And when it comes
to making coffee he is just as good
All this was revealed as the result
of conversation between Mayor Har-
rison and a friend The latter had
seen remarkable statements made by
Mayor Gaynor of New York as to how
long it takes to boil an egg" and casu-
ally he asked the opinion Of the mayor
of Chicago on the subject. The reply
and the branches which the reply took
were astonishing.
There are two ways to boil an egg"
the mayor declared in a jiffy, after the
question had been pronounced. "One
is to put it in cold water bringing the
water to a boil; the other it to wait
until the water boils, and then drop
your egg in. The latter way would
take one minuate, the former about
two and three-quarters.
But say" the mayor continued, ask
me something hard When it comes to
being able to cook, l have EN- all beat.

His friend looked up, astonished
MOP" was his ejaculation.
Right" the mayor said, with a
laugh.
If you don't believe it, ask my wife.
Why, man, when it comes to making
biscuits that melt in your mouth, cof-
fee that equals the nectar of the gods,
whatever it is, and frying bacon and,
am the worlds heavy weight cham
pion, absolutely.
you see, was once chief cook of a
camping party in the Sierra Nevadas
that held forth for twenty-four days.
That's where 1 acquired the knowledge
that has placed me in the front ranks
of the worlds culinary artists. But
don't want a job as cook-I don't
like the work, even though would get
Thursdays off"
The mayors wife was appealed to
for proof of his boasts
Can he cook?" repeated Mr.. Harri-
son, laughing. We'll, I should say he
can. He can make biscuits that are
simply great and his coffee is per
feet"
Katherine Blonien, COOK in the Har
rison household for sixteen years, add
ed her Endorsement of the mayors
ability by saying that he was a better
cook than she herself. A maid who
has been employed in the Harrison
home for sixteen years said the may
or's bacon and eggs were the best il

 U. l.. Moore brought to this city from his farm two miles east of here this morning a pea vine that covers an area of thirty feet. Mir.

If the vines from two peas will make a bale of pea hay, what is the use of paying such a high price for hay? Mir. Farmer, did you ever try raising pea hay?
