Pitched Battle With Snakes

Sturdy old farmers of Udine, Italy,
watch out where they do their
promenading these days following the
dispersion of the snake jamboree.
which was held in the courtyard Of
a farmhouse beneath the protective
cloak Of a huge haystack.
Several women were removing the
hay when hundreds of vipers-Italy's
only poisonous snake-began to ooze
their way out from underneath the
pile. Doors were slammed and peas
ants armed with spades and scythes
went to war. They had killed about
so vipers when a six-foot adder snake
with a pair of sparkling eyes crawled
over the top and charged the enemy.
The women opened the barred
house doors for their men this time.
Later on In the day the peasants
again attacked the haystack, but
meanwhile the visiting snakes had
departed, leaving the dead unburied
on the field of action.

Most domestic rabbits are marketed
at eight to ten weeks Of age, and are
then termed "fryers." The bones of
these quickly grown rabbits are very
brittle, and in preparing the meat for
cooking care should be taken to break
them in such a way that they do not
silver. Like young chickens and ten
der chops and steaks, young rabbits
<can be cooked by the quick methods
of frying or broiling.
The bureau of home economics Of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture gives the following recipe for
frying domestic rabbit:
Fried Rabbit.
Choose a plump young rabbit, wipe
the dressed meat with damp cloth,
and cut into pieces for serving. Beat
one egg yolk, add one-half cupful milk
and three-fourths teaspoonful salt, and
stir into one-half cupful -four to make
a smooth batter. In heavy skillet.
heat four tablespoonfuls Of fat until
very hot, so that it will set the batter
quickly. Dip the pieces of rabbit in
to the batter until well coated and
drop into the hot fat. AS soon as
Drowned, reduce the heat and cook
at moderate Temperature for % to 80

there is never failing solution to the
problem-a perfectly new hat. To an

entirely of betting ribbon or ever-so-
smart looking felts which are trimmed
with betting ribbon.
Early arrivals include arresting
models such as are shown in this group.
The most noticeable thing about the
advance styles is that they are so de-
signed as to be worn far back on the
head so as to reveal a high forehead.
Then. too, brim treatments are made
a feature. AS you see in the picture

the one-sided brim effect which has
proved so flattering works out very
