CHRISTMAS COOKERY IN VANCE.

make the housekeeper rejoice that
certain of the mixing and COM
pounding can be done some weeks
ahead of time. Mincemeat is better IL
mixed long enough in advance to permit it
to season and ripen before it is put into
pies; the Christmas cake. an essential In
most southern and many northern houses,
is another item to which early attention
may be given; plum pudding belongs to
the same class.
Even when these are out Of the way
there remains plenty to do in making
ana frying crullers and doughnuts, In
preparing pastry for the pies, cranberry
sauce. vegetables. and turkey for the din
ner, to say nothing OF such Christmas
candies as are best IL made at the last
moment. All that can be disposed OF
. number of days before the final rush
is so much clear gain to theShousekeeper
and her helpers.
Most involved and tedious of all the
culinary processes Of tho season is inlncc-
meat. To be sure. It Is simpler now than
1t was for our grandmothers, who had
to seed raislns, wash currants. and chop
meat and apples by hand as well as to
mix the compound after the ingredients
were ready. In these days when seeded
raisins and cleaned currsnts are in the
market, when apples can be peeled by
machine and put through the chopper.
when meat may be ground in the Same
engine, labor is appreciably lessened.

The request by correspondent for the
words Of the British national anthem,

many answers. Most of the versions

in 1I45 sends what she says is a copy Of
the original hymn; This contains six,
stanzas, but she remarks that only two
Of them are now habitually sung. These
are the two printed In this Corner last

So many recipes for bread have been
given of late that do not feel justified
In giving another just at present. al
though I would be glad to make room for
suggestions from other housekeepers as
to how to overcome the difficulties Of
which you speak. Several reasons may
exist for the troubles. The bread may
be coarse grained because you do not
knead 1t sufficiently. or 1t may be that
you let 1t rise too long. The third rising
of bread usually takes place after it is
formed into leaves and put into the pans.
You speak in the postscript to your letter
Of the bread sometimes having a sourish
taste. That may be because it rises too
long and begins to sour. Try using the
recipe you already have. working the
dough thoroughly both for its first and
second kneadings and not permitting 1t to
rise to more than twice its original bulk
