eX-J. 5. Senator Beveridge of Indiana
declared that the present Administra-

1--WE FaOPER FLAVOR
GREEN PEPPERS SHOULD BE
MORE USED IN COOKING.
OF Great Value az Digestive Element

Those who enjoy piquantly favored

selling for 20 cents a dozen In some
of the markets.
There are times of the year when
peppers are so scarce as to be a de-
cided luxury. Thus the sweet green
peppers which come from the south
in January bring from ten to fifteen
cents apiece. This species of the pep
per is extremely delicate and desir.
able mild and fine of fibre.
There are a great many kinds OF
this excellent vegetable, which for
many years was rather neglected by
American cooks except for picking
purposes. The pepper came originally
from India, but is now grown freely
here and exported to other countries.
AS a digestive element and an ap-
petizer it is of great value.
One of the finer varieties is the bell
pepper. mild and sweet almost as the
sweet Spanish kind. The bird pepper
is net and good, and when ripe. is
introduced to advantage in white fish
sauces, creamed chicken or other
white fricassees, to which 1t gives
pleasing color.
The American cayenne pepper Is
cultivated in New England and there
is a demand for it abroad on account
Of its superior qrality. There are also
chilli peppers, cherry peppers, guinea
peppers that ripen yellow instead OF
red, and other that grow to a deep
purlish blue when ripe.
Gree the cook becomes accustomed
to the addition of the green pepper
to various dishes it will hardly be
omitted from at least one item on
the menu daily. OF course. 1t must
not be overdone. One pepper dish Is
enough on bill of fare. If repeated
1t loses its savor.-Boston Herald.
