Clean 1 doz. thoroughly. Put a couple of oysters in each, and lay them in a yellow-ware dish, add 2 oz. of boiled salt pork, and 3 sliced raw potatoes. Add 1 pt. of oyster juice, an oz. of butter, salt and pepper. Make a crust over the dish, and bake in a moderate oven. - Mrs. E. D. Kelley, Winnetka, 111.
Wild turkey must be drawn, singed and cleaned precisely the same as chicken or tame turkey. Wipe inside and out with a damp cloth. Truss the turkey into shape at once; dust carefully with pepper, put a teaspoon of salt in the bottom of the pan and pour in 1/2 cup of boiling water. Place in a very hot oven until thoroughly browned. Cool the oven and roast slowly 15 minutes to every pound. Wild turkeys are much better without stuffing. Serve with them cranberry sauce, boiled onions with cream sauce, sweet or white potato croquettes, and celery. - Mrs. Clark Mason, Bensen, 111.
