PROPER USE OF FATS

Manner of Clarifying Fat
From the Soup Kettle.

Fats that are derived from the cook
ing OF bacon, ham. chieESn, beef and
other meats should be kept, each IN
its own receptacle, to be used for diff
ferent purposes.
Home rendering of both suet and
leaf lard has its advantages, because
the product is generally superior to
what can be bought for the same
price.
Both suet and leaf lard require
cooking ia order 10 loosen the fat
from the tougher membrane that holds
it. For this purpose the material is
cut In small pieces and covered with
water and allowed to cook slowly for
some time until no more water re.

A better method for suet Is that
used by German housewives. who

beef fat more than do American house

pieces and covered with water, In

no unpleasant taste or odor, and In
many recipes may be substituted for

lard has a lower melting pound than
beef fat.

to teach the boy better form at the

to do that
At Charlottesville Morgan was
given long and careful instruction on
how to stand, how to swing, how to
get away from the plate and the kind
of a bat he should use. 1t was all
new to the lad. Never before had
any one tried to teach him. He had
always hit in his own natural style,
good enough in its way, too, but not
good enough for the big show.
When the season started Morgan
was only learning how to use all his
weight against the ball, how to pick
out the good ones and how to. get
away from the plate. He was learn

opportunity came for him to take his
