FOODS IN SEASON
By MRS. ELSIE C. McKAY
POULTRY
With a Word on the Proper Caro of
the Refrigerator
Poultry, ns the principal dish on the
family menu, takes first place at this time
t the vcar, despite the fact that the sea
son for Delaware shad and brook trout Is
on. It Is doubtful If there Is anything to
equal a nicely browned, well-nerved fowl
In tempting the lagging spring appetite.
Under the headlnc of poultry come all
domestic fowls chickens, raponn, turkeys,
ducks, geese, pulnea fowl, plseons and
Ebjiiabs.
Just now new sprlnp ducklings are iUli.
plentltut and very tempting at SI cer. a
pound, 4 to B pounds nplecc, and sauab
ducks, Hi to 3 pounds apiece, at SS cents.
"Capoon are excellent and plentiful. New
guinea, fowl nre nlso to be had. Chickens
nro not quite so plentiful ns they might
be, but are good and fresh.
Fortunately, no cold storage ones are
In the market now, with the exception of
Borne broilers from the West.
Squabs arc here In abundance add nre
nil fresh.
Turkeys still remain, hut as the turkey
has first preference from Thanksgiving to
New Year's there Is not much demand at
this season.
ruiCKBNS.
With the use of the Ineubalor system
now In voguo it li possible to find always
the markets well stocked with young
chicken sultnble for broiling.
"Broilers," nltnough tlicv make a very
dainty, delectable dish, are not rich In
nourishment, ana form more of nil appe
tizing morsel than a substantial food.
They nre not by any means economical
Chicken Is especially easy of digestion.
In selecting chicken It Is always wisest
to choose a fowl neighing 4 to r. pounds,
as there Is praettarlly thn sam waste of
entrails, etc.. in small chickens. Always
choose a plump chicken, preferably a hen
with sufficient. fat to make It plump but
not enough to inrrease Its weight mate
rially. Avoid old hens, especially those
With tremendous hulk at the end of the
breastbone. They are expensive even at
half price, as the Intestines, fat and eggs
which they contain often weigh 1'a to 2
pounds, and the H'sh Is neither well
flavored nor tender.
The end of the breastbone remains car
tilage until a chicken Is nhout one year
old. If this Is pliable It denotes a young
chicken, and especially may you be sure
of It where an abundanco of pin feathers
Is present. If Ioiik hair abounds you may
bo certain It denotes ag. as also do scaly
feet, although if the feet are lender and
the breatsbone is limber you may bo as
sured they arc voting.
The yclloW-sklnncd chickens arc pre
ferable, and nro supposed, as aro yellow-shelled
eggs, to possess mute nourish
ment. Bo this as It may. however, the
yellow-skinned chickens mako the rich
est dish. When there Is morp fat than
la necessary for broth and gravy, skim
off the top after cooking, or peel It fiom
the meat before cooking and render It.
It can bo used Instead of butter In fry
ing and seasoning, as well as for short
ening In pastry, biscuits, nr even In cake.
Never allbw anv olli rendered from any
meats to he thrown awny. They all
may be used to good advantage.
A nice way of serving a roasted fowl
Is to have It browned and garnished with
sprigs of celery bound to drumsticks and
extending out In place of feet. Also
arrange a bunch of celery tastily at the
neck for the head. Have all placed on
a bed of cress and carrots.
Steamed or fricasseed chicken is de
licious served In a border of rice. Dolled
fowl Is excellent served with a rice border
or with oyster, egg or celery sauce.
Planked chicken, a dish out of the ordi
nary, Is a splendid way of serving Mary
land fried chicken. Breaded elilc. ens,
Southern style, must not be forgotten,
either. Since casserole cookery has been
very much the vogue, this excellent way
of cooking chicken is nlso afforded.
If a large, meaty chicken is purchased,
there will usually be enough left over
to combine with potatoes and make a
nice baked or steamed chicken pic. Chick
en croquett03 can be made from the odds
and ends, as well as creamed chicken
on toast, or patties.
Jellied chicken makes a dainty luncheon
or supper dish for warm weather, ns
does also mayonnaise chicken, consist
ing of nice slices of white meat served
on a platter with mayonnaise over It and
garnished with cress.
Jellied chicken Is made by taking chick
en which has been boiled until the meal
falls from bones and the stock Is reduced
to about three-quarters of a cup; strain
and skim off fat: season; decorate bot
tom of a mold with parsley and slices
of hard-boiled eggs; pack In meat freed
from the bone and well seasoned. Pour
on stock and placo mold under heavy
weight. Keep In a cool place until firm.
In warm weather It Is sometimes neces
sary to add a teaspoonful of gelatine to
the stock In order to make It Jell better.
Capons are tender nnd delicious, and
as they always command a high prlco
they are much better cared for than
ordinary barnyard fowl. They have the
tenderness of very young chickens, with
the rich flavor of maturity. Prepare
capons the same ns chickens or turkey.
Stuffed and roasted they are best. Oysters
make a very good filling.
DUCKS.
There aro celery-fed ducks In market
now those fed for one week on celery,
which Imparts an extremely delicious
flavor to the flesh. However. If these aro
not always procurable, the delicious
flavor of celery can be obtained by putting
a few tablespoonfuls of minced celery in
the body before It Is cooked. Parboiling
a duck removes some of the oily flavor.
To select young ducks, watch for a soft
underbill. In bending. It easily breaks,
and the webbing of the feet is soft. They
should be sufficiently futtened to have
Clump breasts,
Pevlled duck Is a dish frequently used
at stagf dinners and generally liked.
To prepare, boll or roast a duck and let
It cool. Kemove skin and bones, cut
NO. 98 ASTHMA SIMPSON, THE VILLAGE
meat Into moderate-sized pieces. Boll
liver and mash It to a paste Put It In
a saucepan with a tablespoonful of dry
mustard, one tablespoonful of salt, a dash
of cayenne nnd Juice of a lemon. Mix
thoroughly, add two tablespoonfuls of
melted butter and one-fourth cup water.
Into this mixture put one and one-half
pints of cold duck. Place saucepan over
fire and stir until the mixture Is smoking
hot. Turn It on a. hot dish and garnlfh
with sliced lemon and sprigs of p,trsley.
Serve at once with thin pieces of buttered
toast and olives.
MU1NKA tOtVi
The flesh of the guinea hen Is very un
like that of any other barnyard fowl. It
Is all dark, corresponding more nearly to
the flesh of wild fowl. The fact Is that
guineas always remain wild, simply tol
erating the domesticity to which they are
subjected. Therefore, as they hunt about
In llcld.x largely for their food, they do
not accumulate fat like domestic fowl.
This renders them more digestible.
tiulnca fricassee, served with potato
croquets, stuffed tomatoes and salad,
makes an excellent meal.
P 10 EONS.
The best method of cooking a full
grown pigeon Is potting. This gtvea the
moist, slow cooking necessary to all
tough or flying birds.
POTTHD PIGKONS.
Clean and stuff six pigeons, placo them
upright in stow pan nnd add one quart of
boiling water In which celery and onion
have been cooked. Cover nnd cook slowly
until tender, or cook In oven In a covered
earthen dish. Kemove from the water,
cooU sprinkle with salt and pppper;
dredge with flour nnd brown In pork
drippings. Make a sauce with 4-ctii
butter and flour cooked together witn
stock In pan. This should make two
cups Place ach bird on plecn of toast
and pour gravy over all. Garnish with
parsley or cress.
Potato stuffing is also good.
Pigeon bird's nest U a vcrv altraetlvo
way of serving this food. Boll some yellow-
macaroni until tender, then cut M
pieces the lengths of a finger and lay
on the dish like a straw nest. Truss
pigeons with heads on (having plrked
them clean), turn under tho left wing,
leave feet on and having stowed them,
arrange In nest. Pour gravy over
nnd serve. The nest may be made of
boiled rice or bread cut In pieces tht,
length of a linger and browned In hot
lard seasoned with silt and pepper.
Squabs are nicest broiled and served
on toast. They may nlso bo baked In thn
oven after splitting them down the back
nnd carcfullv wiping, inside and out. Cur
rant Jelly and peas may be served with
them.
TIMELY ATTENTION TO THE ItE
FIUGETtATOR. Now that warmer weather Is coming
on nnd the general spring housecleanlng
season has begun, one of tho most Im
portant things claiming attention nnd one
which Is often overlooked Is the careful
Investigation of tho refrigerator.
Few refrigerators aro properly Insu
lated, and the loss from this nlono makes
them a regular lee consumer. If one
cares not so much for tho appearance of
thn refrigerator, one Inch of compressed
cork, bought nt a nominal expense, can
be tacked on with small nails, covering
the entlr boxtop, and the sides nnd bot
tom as well. Be sure to have an "S" trap
In tho drip to prevent tho hot air from
going Into tho refrigerator. The neglect
of this often Is the cause of great waste
of Ice and prevents the refrigerator from
being properly cooled. On the outside of
the compressed corlt. a coat of cement,
one-quarter Inch thick, can be placed to
give n finished appearance. Put a coat
of dull white paint on before the cement
Is too dry, so that II will adhere better,
and then, when dry, add tho coat of white
enamel. When this is dry it can be kept
clean and will las: a long time. The
paving 'on your Ice bill will be at least
per cent, by having cork Insulation.
In these modern days, with all up-to-date
labor-saving devices, the housewife
should have another sort of nnnoyanco
eliminated that of constantly having to
empty tho drip pan by hnvlng the drln
pipe attached to sewer with "S" trap at
sewer as well as at the refrigerator or
ice box, which makes a double trap and
prevents all possibility of sewer gas get
ting Into thn refrigerator.
Most refrigerators aro so constructed
that tho currents of nlr on opposite sides
do not cross, but remain In their respec
tive sides, passing up and down on tho
same side In circulation. Butter will not
take up the odor of vegetables. If placed
on nil opposite side. A properly con
structed refrigerator should have the ice
on top in thn centre or un the end. but
In cither rase there should be hot and
cold air fluco, allowing circulation up
over Ice. The water will absorb all odors
and pass out In the drip. The cold air
will then go down to the bottom, where
goods are stored, and gathering up heat
from tliem pass up inn noi air nue,
thus giving n perfect circulation.
It should always be remembered that a
box with the Ice chest on top or side
without any circulating flues makes the
ice box foul by retaining nil deadly gases,
which soon contaminate any food placed
In It.
rtomalno poison is often contracted by
the placing of warm salads In refrig
erators which have contained food gen
erating dangerous gases. As these salads
or foods are warm, they rapidly absorb
the dead gases) and become poisonous.
TRICE QUOTATIONS AND A FEW
NEW ARRIVALS.
Florida asparagus still continues good
and Is more reasonable In price. In about
another week dealers expect our de
licious home-grown New Jersey as
paraguB. Delaware shad Is now In market at
more reasonable prices and In plentiful
quantity. Roe will soon be quite reason
able.
Many new onions, silver skins, arrived
from Texas 'JS cents Vi peck.
A fresh consignment of lima beans
from Cuba Is very nice. Selling at 1
per quart, shelled.
Strawberries are not running quite so
good at present, owing to a change of

QUEEN CON TRAFFIC
WHICH GOES
CIVIC CLUB STIRRED BY
"SUGGESTIVE CLOTHES"
Furore When Society's "Bul
letin" Rnps Modern Styles as
, "Bold and Insane."
An urcent cnll to women's rluha of this
city to begin a campaign nualust the mod
ern styles, "because or their HiiTenslnB
bnldne3i and Infinity," made In tin edi
torial nf the April Hullelltt. n monthly
publication of the Clvln I'luh, 1SC0 Spiuce
street, has rllrred the members of that
eluh
The editorial N a satlrle nttnrlc on the
American society woman for her lack of
tnstc and sanity In chnoslnp wearing
npparel. Discussion has arisen largely be
cause the membership of the club Includes
mnnv of tho city's fashionable set. The
edlto'rlnl asks how a child -an be expected
tn have good taste nnd hlpn mornlR when
It sees its mother arrayed In suggestive
stvlcs reKardles." of her npi? nnd of condi
tion that should rrnulato taste.
Tho American woman who wears on
the street a dress that In Franco Is worn
only In private vehicles comes In for a
severe uttack. The society woman who
bedecks herself with loo much Jowolry Is
openly ridiculed. Tho writer laughs nt the
term "well dressed," claiming that It
means In this day nothing but fashion
able, radlcnl clothes, mado in tho Intcst
stvle. Attention Is called to the fact that
the American woman Is often the worst
dressed person In a group, by reason of
the lack nf suitability of the Rarmentn
for tho occasion on which they are worn.
Freaks of fashion which cause women to
wear straw hats In January and felt hats
In August, nnd to wear thin silk stock
ings in winter, nro condemned and de
cried. '
Tho' woman who. ns she grows older.
adorn3 herself with mote clothes and
Jewelrv to offset the ravages of time is
mentioned ns a menace to her children,
for, tho writer asks, "with the mother as
an example of such bad taste nnd morals,
who will tako the responsibility of teach
ing the young to bo moderate and tasteful
In tho selection of their friends, pleasures
and wardrobes?"
Thn article concludes with the state
ment that women should realize that
showy dressing In public creates envy
among thousand of people who cannot
honestly afford to buy it and who either
starve their bodies or sell their souls to
procure showy garments of tho cheaper
grade. Tho present appearance of tho
majority nf women In public Is neither
uplifting nor edifying, the nrtlclo con
tinues, nnd is not conducive to tho moral
advancement of the community.
The Civic Club up to now has taken no
definite action In regard to tho editorial.
