TOUGH MEAT CAN BE

Long Cooking at a Low Temper

Many Ways Of Preparing In Water
Without Allowing II to Reach
Boiling Point-Possibilities
Of Double Boiler.

Tough pieces Of meat are as nutri-
tious as the more tender cuts and can
be made quite as appetizing. but they
require long cooking at a low tenn
perature. There are many ways OF
cooking meat in water without allow
Ing It to reach the boiling point,
culinary experts in the United States
department of agriculture affirm. With
the ordinary kitchen range this Is ac-
complIshed by soaring the meat until
brown, to develop the flavor, then
cooking on the cooler part OF the stove
rather than on the hottest part. d.
rectly over the fire.
Experience with q gas stove, partic-
ularly if It has small burner known
as a "simmerer" usually enables the
cook to maintain temperatures which
will make 1t tender without hardening
the fbers. The possibilities OF the
double boiler for this purpose seem
to have been neglected. Its contents
can easily be kept up to tempera-
ture Of 200 degrees Fahrenheit and
nothing will burn. =
Another method is by means Of the
fireless cooker. In this a high tenn
perature can be maintained for a long
time without the application Of fresh
heat. Still another method Is by
means Of closely covered baking
dish. Earthenware dishes Of this
kind suitable for serving foods as well
as for cooking are known as casse-
roles.
The Dutch oven or cast iron pot
with a heavy cless-fitting top Is an
excellent utensil for the long cooking

More Than 4 Million In Service.
To give some idea of the magnitude
Of the Union armies Of that day, It
may be stated that In April, 1885.
more than q million Of men were In
the service Of the United States. A
still larger number had been enrolled
and discharged. To these may be add
ed q roll Of names which at that time
numbered more than two hundred and
flfty thousand-the grand army Of the
dead. Altogether. through the Civil
war, 2,S59, 132 men had been called to
military service.
To celebrate the closing Of the war
and to afford the people an opportun.
ity to look upon the heroes who had
fought the battles In defense Of the
Union, It was suggested by Edwin NJ.
Stanton, secretary Of war. that the
armies Of Sherman and Meade. which
were then stationed nearest to the
capital, should be formally reviewed
In the city Of Washington before their
final discharge from service and re-
turn to their homes. The Army Of the
Potomac. the Army Of Tennessee and
the Army Of Georgia. under orders is
sued by General Grant. marched to
the vicinity Of the city preparatory to
entering the city for the review which
took place May q and May "a, 1885.
Washington was brilliantly decOrat-
ed for the occasion, both public and
private buildings floating flags and
bunting. and at all prominent points
there were arches and floral embellish-
ments Of various designs. -Four stands
were erected In front of the White
House, which were decorated with the
regimenta! battle flags and flowers.
On the principal stand were President
Andrew johnson and his cabinet. dip
lomats and ENJOYS Of foreign nations,
and governors Of states. Lieutenant
General Grant occupied . position
