LUSCIOUS FIELD MUSHROOM.

This is the season for the full en-
joyment of the inviting field mush-
room; when we have plenty of rain
the crop is abundant During the
months Of July and August the mush-
rooms are more apt to be wormy than
early or later in the season. 1t is wise
to look the mushrooms over carefully
before cooking.
All fungi should be avoided when
overripe or attacked by slugs. The
medium in which they grow often
causes a disagreeable odor and favors
Authorities differ as to the digestibik
ity of mushrooms. but nearly all agree
that their nutritive value has been
vastly exaggerated, although their pop
ularity will continue, as their flavor
and attractiveness will always be held
in high esteem.
Beefsteak and mushrooms may be
enjoyed by the plainest of livers if
the fungi may be gathered fresh in
ones own neighborhood.
Mushroom Scramble.-Saute cup
full of mushrooms cut fine in two ia
blesponfuls of butter with a half a
dozen well beaten eggs. Cook until
the egg is set. and serve on toast.
DeViIed Mushrooms.-Mix a tea
spoonful of mustard, a dash of cay
enne, teaspoonful of Worcestershire
sauce and half a teaspoonful of pap
rika; cover broiled mushrooms with
this mixture and serve on toast.
Broiled Mushrooms.-Put the mush-
rooms in a buttered broiler, cup side
down; broil, then turn and put a bit
of butter in each cup. Sprinkle with
pepper and salt and serve as soon as
the butter is melted
Mushrooms Baked in Cream.-Pre-
pare the mushrooms, arrange in a bak-
ing dish, season and pour over suffi-
cient cream to cover. Sprinkle with
crumbs and bake. Serve from the
baking dish.

Potatoes, turnips, carrots, beets and

eye
