YELLOWSTONE LANDSLIDES
They Are Not as Big as Pana-
mas But They Give Engi-
neers Trouble.

The lot Of the engineer is happier
than the policeman's, to be sure, but
he also has his troubles. Sometimes
they are very big and expensive trou-
bles like Col Cocktails land slides at
Panama, and sometimes they are
merely bothersome, like Maj. Fries's
landslides in the Yellowstone.
Maj. Fries is the War Department
engineer whose work on the Yellow
stone roads made it possible for Sec
rotary Lane to open the National Park
to motorists this last summer. He
has had his big troubles, too, and has
plenty more ahead before he gets
Yellowstone's $50 miles of road sur
faced and oiled for the good days that
are coming.
The majors landslide is really not
much of an affair, but, as the road
system is narrow and stoppage any
where will become, if not instantly
REPAIRED, something of a disaster in a
very short time, it stirs up feelings
out of all proportion to its size. Gangs
have to be called from other work
and hustled to the spot at as nearly
fire-engine speed as numbering repair
carts and Government horses can ac-
complish.
The hill which every now and then,
always, of course, at the most incon-
venient time, slides down over the
road, is composed of gravel and loose
conglomerate rock, streaked with yell
low slippery clay. There is a great
to-do to shovel it off. Meantime the
engine has been set up and a heavy
stream of water at 70 pounds pres
sure is played.on the earth above, so
as to wash down as much of the stuff
as possible while they are at it and
thus lengthen the interval to the next
slide, but at that the hill sometimes
fools them and slides off soon after
ward in another spot.
Maj Fries has to endure this nuis-
ance as best he may, because the ex-
pense of digging away the hill or
replacing the road elsewhere forbids
a permanent cure.

70 SERVE EGGPLANT
VEGETABLE VALUABLE IN GIVING
VARIETY TO MENU.
Care Bestowed on Its Preparation VIII
Be Well Repaid by the TastIness
Which Is It's Characteristic
When Well Seasoned.

The eggplant is plentiful and at its
best just now. Well seasoned and
carefully cooked, 1t may give in many
DISCUSSES many varieties to the menu.
Many Of the recipes given below are
from southern France, where the egg
plant is the favorite vegetable. When
choosing an eggplant select one of
medium size and firm, otherwise It
may be too ripe and full of grains in
side. However great the virtues Of
the eggplant may be, remember that
by itself it is quite tasteless; so sea-
son and season WELL
Eggplant saIad.-Put in the oven
one eggplant, five green peppers and
two tomatoes. You will bake the
tomatoes first, then the peppers, and
the eggplant last. Gradually skin,
grain and drain off the above vege-
tables. Use a silver knife. Arrange
in a dish. On q moderate fire in a
half cupful of olive oil fry a small
onion cut into small pieces and half
cupful of olives stoned and cut into
pieces. When the onion is slightly
brown add everything to the dish. Salt
and pepper to taste and add two table
spoonfuls of good wine vinegar. To
be eaten cold.
Broiled Eggplant.-Cut the eggplant
in two lengthwise. Put in a mar
mate composed OF two tablespoonfuls
of olive oil, one teaspoonful salt, one
half teaspoonful of pepper and some
parsley. Leave it to marinate for an
hour or more. Broil and serve with
the marinate.
Fried and Au Gratin.-When you
cut an eggplant into pieces for frying
or other purposes be sure to sprinkle
it with salt and let it stand under a
weight for about two hours. Drain
off the water, dry well and then fry
For the gratin cover with either to-
mato or white sauce and bake for
from Is to 20 minutes.
For Fritters.-Soak the pieces two
hours in milk; dry and fry, using the
following recipe for fritter batter; One
cupful -four two teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder, one-fourth teaspoonful
salt, one-fourth cupful milk, two eggs
one tablespoonful lemon juice. Sift
the dry ingredients; add the well beat
en- eggs, lemon igife and milk Beat
well. Prepare a few hours ahead.
| Stuffed EsspIant.-Cut the eggplant
lengthwise. Make incisions with {
knife, salt and let stand for an hour
Drain off the water; cut the pull
and fry it for a few minutes in oil
Pound well; add four tablespoonful
Of pounded ham, a teaspoonful OF pars
ley, salt and pepper, Sprinkle witt
crumbs, to which may be added SOM
parmesan. Put over it a little oil ant
bake in an oiled pan for an hour. o
course you may use butter instead o
oil, but the olive oil blends itself bet
ter with the eggplant. If instead o
ham you use hashed mutton, cooked
rice and bit of garlic and pimentt
you may call this dish eggplant a /;
| Turcque."
Eggplant and Tomatoes.-Peel thu
elephants; cut lengthwise in pieces
one-half inch thick. Salt, let stanC
and dry. Put in a pan; cover with ;
we'll seasoned tomato sauce. Cove
the pan and cook on moderate fir,
for an hour.
