COFFEE FOR FAIRS AND sOCIABLEs

Mrs. Mary ]. Lincoln says:
mo feasts or light refreshments for
a large company of people would be COM
plotc without coffee, and how best to
make ii is often matter of much and
varied thought on the part of COM
mittees.
"A new or presumably we'll cleaned
common boiler usually has to be called
into reouisitlon on such occasions for
not every community can command the
steam apparatus which is often sent out
from large coffee houses or caterers
"On account of the difficulty in strain
ing such a large quantity the ground cot
fee is usually placed in bags. not more
than a pound in each. and put into the
boiler with cold water
Then covered closely, heated slowly
and allowed to boil about 10 minutes. It
should then be kept hot, but not boil,
and dipped out into hot pitchers as de-
sired. BY allowing onc-half ounce, or
one rounded tablespoon, for each half
pint cup Of water, and one cup for each
person, one can easily compute the
amount required for any number of peo-
pie At this rate one pound of coffee,
or g half ounces, would make 3. half
pint cups, or eight quarts, and would be
sufficient for about 20 persons
This proportion makes coffee of me-
dunn strength, but much depends upon
the kind of coffee used. Usually 1t is SAT-
er to make it quite strong, as in the haste
