Nothing But Codfish. 
Codfish Cones.—Pick salt codfish into 
small pieces to measure two cupfuls, soak 
over night, drain and bring to the boiling 
point. Make a white sauce by melting 
two tablespoonfuls of butter and blending 
with it two tablespoonfuls of flour and 
one cupful of hot milk, cooking to a thick 
cream. Have ready one pint of hot sea-

soned mashed potatoes. Beat the fish 
into the sauce, add the potato, mix thor¬ 
oughly and form into small cones; place 
them on a buttered baking sheet, brush 
with melted butter, sprinkle with bread 
crumbs and brown in the oven. 
Codfish en Coquille.—Freshen and boil 
the fish, then pick into small pieces, free 
from bone or skin. Make a rich cream 
sauce by stirring together a scant tea¬ 
spoonful of flour and three generous ones 
of butter, with salt and pepper to taste. 
Cayenne pepper, by the way, makes a 
white sauce look much better than black 
pepper. When these are thoroughly 
mixed over the fire add a small cup of 
cream (or milk will do) and stir until it 
begins to boil; then pour over the fish, 
and when it is all well moistened with 
the sauce fill each shell lightly with the 
mixture, sprinkle a few bread crumbs on 
the top and bake in a quick oven until 
brown—about 15 or 30 minutes usually. 
Creamed Codfish.—Let one cup of salt 
codfish, picked into bits, stand covered 
6287 Fancy Pony Jacket, 32 to 40 bust, 
with cold water several hours. Then heat 
without boiling. Drain and press out all 
the water. Scald one cup of milk over 
hot water. Stir into it two tablespoon- 
luls of flour, mixed to a smooth liquid 
condition with three or four tablespoon- 
uils of milk; and when thickened slightly 
add the fish, and let it cook over hot 
water about 15 minutes. Then add one 
egg beaten slightly. Turn into a serving- 
dish, and set a sprig of parsley in the 
center. Serve at once with hot baked or 
steamed potatoes. 
Codfish Rabbit.—Heat one tablespoon- 
ni °I b H tte F * n a smooth, enameled pan 
B end with, it one spoonful of cornstarch, 
add a dash of paprika and (slowly) one 
cupful of hot milk. Cook for five min¬ 
utes, add a slight grating of onion, three- 
quarters of a cupful of grated cheese and 
a cupful of cold flaked fish. As soon as 
the cheese is melted stir in a beaten egg 
and a tablespoonful of lemon juice, and 
pour over crisped wafers. 
Codfish Mound.—Make one quart of 
good mashed potatoes without any salt; 
add a pint of picked boiled codfish. Sea¬ 
son with pepper; beat well together, make 
into a mound with a depression in center 
on a baking dish, and set in the oven to 
brown. When brought to the table, pour 
a few tablespoonfuls of cream sauce in 
center of mound, and garnish with hard- 
boiled egg. Serve with boiled beets and. 
if desired, salt pork or bacon cut into 
tiny squares and fried crisp, which, with 
the fat fried out, is poured into a gravy 
bowl. This makes a hearty and satisfy¬ 
ing meal. 
Broiled Salt Cod.—Use a firm thick 
piece of fish. Let it stand in cold water 
over night, or a shorter time will do if 
the water is changed frequently. Wipe 
it dry and broil over a good bed of coals 
12 minutes. Place on a hot platter and 
spread maitre d’hotel butter over it, cut¬ 
ting into the fish a little here and there 
so the butter may penetrate all parts of 
it. For the sauce, beat three tablespoon- 
fuls of butter to a cream and then add 
one tablespoonful of vinegar or lemon 
juice, two tablespoonfuls of chopped pars¬ 
ley, half a teaspoonful of salt and one- 
half saltspoonful of pepper. Beat well 
into the butter, spread over the fish and 
serve. 
Poached Fish.—Shred and freshen the 
fish in cold water for several hours. To 
each three tablespoonfuls of the fish add 
six tablespoonfuls of cream and a beaten 
egg. Turn into buttered poaching cups 
and cook standing in hot water until firm.

to young girls, and desirable for wash

with or without the fitted lining, and 
consists of front and backs. The sleeves 
are full above the elbows and plain be¬ 
low, and the closing is made invisibly at 
the back. The quantity of material re¬ 
quired for the medium size (14 years) is 
3(4 yards 21, 3 yards 27 or 2 yards 44 
inches wide. The pattern 5270 is cut in 
sizes for girls of 12, 14 and 16 years of 
age; price 10 cents. 
An example of the fashionable “pony” 
jacket is shown in No. 5287. The coat 
is made with fronts and side-fronts, backs 
and under-arm gores. The fronts are cut 
with extensions that lap over onto the 
side-fronts, and all the seams are left 
open for a few inches above the lower 
edge. The sleeves are trimmed to match 
the front. The quantity of material re¬ 
quired for the medium size is 3)4 yards 
27, 3)4 yards 44 or 2 yards 52 inches

Where Land Yields 
Twice Its Cost in the First Year 
J UNION 
PACIFIC 
Will you, Mr. Farmer, if you find it a 
hard matter to much more than “make 
ends meet” just reason out this propo¬ 
sition? 
The land in South Platte Valley, 
Colorado, yields 20 tons of sugar beets 
to the acre every year—sure crop, never 
a failure. Choice land ready for plow¬ 
ing averages $40 per acre. 40 acres, — 
costing $1600.00 will yield 800 tons of sugar beets a year— worth 
$4,000.00. And the Sugar Factory on the ground will contract 
right now to pay you $5.00 a ton for all the beets you can raise 
for 3 years and a field superintendent of the sugar factory will 
visit you several times a week to give you the benefit of experience 
in beet culture and help you install proper methods to insure 20- 
ton-to-the-acre crops. 
Will you just sit right down now and write to the
