BY 
THOMAS F. DE YOE, 
AUTHOR OP “ THE MARKET BOOK,” ETC. 
The object of this volume is to present that which may 
he found practically useful as well as interesting. It aims 
at bringing together, in as small compass as possible, 
and in a form easy of reference, those items of informa¬ 
tion which many would desire to possess when called 
upon to cater for the household. In order fully to carry 
out the practical views here indicated, the work is di¬ 
vided into several headings; all of which, however, har¬ 
monize into one connecting form, 11 What we Eat," Do¬ 
mestic, or Tame Animals; Wild Animals, or Animal 
Game; Poultry; Wild Fowl and Birds, or Bird Game; 
Fish; Vegetables; Pot and Medicinal Herbs; Fruits and 
Nuts; Dairy and Household Products, etc. 
The author lias gleaned what lie deems the useful, from 
tlic daily wants, and the common expressions of almost 
every home. “What shall we have to-day for dinner ? ” 
“What is there in our markets fit to cat ?” “What kinds of 
meats, poultry, game, flsli, vegetables, and fruits, arc in 
season ?” “What names are given to the different joints 
of meats, and what dishes are they severally and gener¬ 
ally used for?” These, and many other similar ques¬ 
tions are often discussed, with no one to answer. For 
this hook it is claimed that it contains a comprehen¬ 
sive reply to all queries of this nature. 
Iu order the more fully to cany out the views the author 
has entertained in relation to the various articles of food, 
lie lias used as illustrations the outlined diagram figures 
of such animals as are usually portioned out and sold by 
the public market butchers, with the various names, 
given with the accompanying engraved cuts of the prin¬ 
cipal joints. These are intended to assist in their recog¬ 
nition when called for, as well as to aid in rendering per¬ 
fect. the dishes commonly made from them. 
After the Butcher’s Meats will be found a brief descrip¬ 
tion of other articles of food, with the periods of their 
season or when considered host; also instructions to 
guide in judging of and selecting them in the various 
public market-places.
