Roast Fowl.

Take an old hen. prepare and stun
same as you would chicken. Sew
it up securely and be careful and not
stuff it too full. Leave room for
stuffing to swell. Place in a large
kettle, pour in boiling water to the
heighth of two inches (throw in giz-
card and heart). Put the cover on
tight and let it steam, not boil. for
two solid hours. At the end of the
first hour turn the fowl over and
add more water If necessary. When
ready for roasting place in the pan
and sprinkle with salt. pour liquid
over it and roast in a slow oven two
hours, basting very often. In this
