Small Yacht Construction 
and Rigging. 
A Complete Manual of Practical Boat and Small Yacht 
Building. With two complete designs and numerous 
diagrams and details. By Linton Hope. 177 pages. 
Cloth. Price, $3.00. 
The author has taken two designs for practical demon- 
stration, one of a centerboard boat 19ft. waterline, and 
the other a cruising cutter of 22ft. waterline. Both de- 
signs show fine little boats which are fully adapted to 
American requirements. Full instructions, even to the 
minutest detail, are given for the building of both these 
boats. The information is not confined to these yachts 
alone; they are merely taken as examples; but what is 
said applies to all wooden yacht building according to 
the best and most approved methods.

WILD TURKEY NOW IN SEASON. 
In the course of wanderings about the marke] 
at this time of year there is a reasonable ce} 
tainty that fine specimens of wild turkey will lt] 
found suspended at conspicuous corners of tl 
butchers’ stalls. If you are possessed of the wi} 
dom of the true epicure you will buy the priz 
nor will you fail to see to it that it is prepare 
for the table in a proper manner, not spoiled ; 
the hands of an ignorant cook. 
Of course, if you are not an expert in the sele 
tion of game birds, care must be taken to s¢ 
that the turkey is of the genuine wild variet 
for there is nothing easier than to deceive tl 
amateur by the substitution of a domestic bi 
when the plumage of the latter resembles thi 
of the wild turkey, as is so frequently the cas 
To distinguish the difference between the tw 
however, is not so difficult when one knows hoy 
as there are certain points that are an infallib 
guide. For example, the bronze feathers on tl 
breast of the wild bird exhibit a beautiful metall 
sheen that the plumage of the domestic turke 
cannot equal, and, what is still more certain : 
a sign of identification, the shank of the wi 
turkey is distinguished by a smooth shiny scal 
like covering that is actually pink in color, whi 
the shank of the domestic bird has a coverir 
that is not only very rough, but that is alway 
dark in tint—either brown or black. 
While the flesh of the wild turkey has mo: 
color and flavor than that of the domestic fow 
says the Times, it must be cooked in a very di 
ferent manner if its meat is to be tender ar 
juicy. Thus, if it is to be stuffed and roaste 
“in hunter’s style,’ it must be basted frequent 
with a sauce composed of plenty of melted bu 
ter, mixed with vinegar and sage, as well ; 
salt, and pepper, for as the meat absorbs th 
liquid, the flavors combine with the juices « 
the bird, blending most harmoniously into 
delectable sauce. 
The late Mark Hanna was extremely fond « 
wild turkey, but he was of the opinion that nf§ 
body could cook them quite as delicately or ser\® 
them as attractively as the chef of a certain hot 
in Washington. As the result, it was to th 
hotel that he invariably went when the cravir}| 
for wild turkey seized him, and this was tl 
way in which he expected the bird to be pr 
pared: 
After singeing and drawing the turkey tl 
head was removed, and the bird was split witl 
out being separated. Plenty of salt and pepp: 
was then rubbed into the flesh, after which bot 
sides were greased thoroughly with the be 
butter obtainable. Thus prepared, the bird w: 
broiled, from ten to twelve minutes on each sid 
accordine to its size, and it was sent to the tab 
with a rich cream sauce, to which either mus] 
rooms or truffles, and sometimes both, contr 
buted that distinction of flavor that all love 
of nice eating know how to appreciate.
