Chop Suey

Will you kindly give recipe for chop suey? I presume I must have missed it in the Corner. I always read your Cor ner Sometimes I think you must be sage to be able to answer all questions, have any brains of their own. But, any way, success to our Corner. B. M C."
 The Helping Hand Corner thanks you for your good will and wishes The recipe for chop suey has been published at least thrice within half year, and I suppose some readers may cavl at the fourth in- sertion when we are so cruelty cramped for room. Please understand that the ap- pearance of the formula is a token of recognition of the obligation of the Cor ner to serve a faithful colleague as far as it may be done without encroaching upon the rights of others. The recipe will not be printed here again for six months to come. It takes up too much room: One-half chicken Cor quarter chicken and as much fresh pork, or you can make it all pork, but chicken is better), one large onion, a handful of mushroom, stalk of celery, six Chinese potatoes, a bowl of rice, a small dessert dish of Chinese sauce (which anwsers for salt). When the chicken is cleaned
 
 cut into strips about one and half inches long and one-half inch wide. IT pork is used, cut the strips the same length. Slice the onions thin; soak the mushrooms 10 minutes in water, then re-
 move the stems; cut the celery into pieces one and half inches long. Chi nese potatoes require no cooking; simply wash and slice. First put chicken Cor chicken and pork) into a frying pan with fat and cook until done, but not brown and hard. Then add the sliced onions and cook a little. Add mushrooms. Now pour enough sauce over the ingredients to make them brown; add water and stew a few minutes Add the celery, then the potatoes. Finally, add a little floured water to it, making gravy of the water which stewed it. The Chinese potatoes, mushrooms, and Chinese sauce may be procured at any Chinese grocery. If the rice is not cooked properly it will detract greatly from the good taste of the chop suey. Otherwise it is palat- tJa dish

TEXAS is NEARER TO
N. Y. THAN PITTSBURGH
At Least Freight Rates on Pig IRON
to Gotham Favor lone Star State
AS Against smoky City.

NEW YORK. Sept. 2S.-Texas is
nearer to New York than is Pitts
burg, according to the transportation
rates on pig iron submitted to the
board of industrial preparedness in
a presentation of the proposed use of
Texas iron ores on big scale for re-
lieving the stress or orders for iron
and steel, which have sent steel COM
mon" across par on the stock ex-
change. Not that the immortal hero
of the Texas Steer" will have a
shorter journey to Gotham from Tex
as City the new Steel city on the
gulf, and from Amarillo in the Pan
handle, than from the smoke of Pitts
burg. But freight rates by water on
pig iron. it seems, are even lower
from the Texas port to New York
than are the rail rates from Pittsburg
and the freight on iron ore from
the famous Messaba mines in which
James j. Hill made many associates
fabulous fortunes, 10 Pittsburg fur
mace is much higher The cOmpari-
son made in a report of big New
York engineering house was as fol-
lows: THE freight on ore from the
mines to the furnace and steel plant
and the product of the plant to the
commercial centers is one big item
in the cost of production, The
freight on ore to Texas City is only
$175 per ton as compared to SIS per
ton to Pittsburg the greatest produc-
ing center in the world. Texas City
is nearer New York than is Pittsburg
when the cost per ton of freight
charges is considered, Engineers re-
ports show that pig iron can be pro-
duced at Texas City for 50 per ton. 1t
only takes two tons of Texas ore to
produce one ton of pig iron. For years
the great iron ores OF Texas have
been an ever present regulator of the
price at which the northern ores are
sold, but with tn giant steel industry
earning a million dollars day and
refusing orders the situation is said
to require development and use Of
the Texas area. The market in Tex
as alone for rails and fencing is 50
great that big warehouses are main
tanned by the steel corporation for
distribution to the interior Of the
enormous state of Texas.

NECESSARY FOR
SAFETY OF OAHU

The possibility that this year an
Appropriation for q military road
around Oahu may pass Congress has
awakened discussion of the road
among civilians and army people.
Officers believe the road to be
military necessity and indispensable
to the defense Of the island in case
Of war. They expect. If war comes.
the attack to be made through par
ties landed in small boats on some re-
mote part of the island, and In order
to meet and repel such an attack they
say a road over which troops could
be quickly moved In automobiles must
be built and hidden with trees planted
along the. edge toward the sea. They
also think q railroad around the is
land is badly needed.
Oahu, If the Philippines are allow
ed their own government, will be the
western outpost Of the United States.
Twenty-Five thousand troops will be
quartered here, but they will be al
most useless unless there are means
for transporting masses of men rapid
ly from one point to another If war
ever comes.
