Synopsis

Excerpt from Mrs. Snow's Practical Cook Book: For Home and Schools

In the economy of nature nothing is lost. All waste, by the aid of heat is converted into fuel for cooking food for plants, then into food for man and animals - and animals, as condensed vegetable, furn ishes food for man; all containing some chemical properties, depend ant one upon the other, all for the use of man. To prepare food so as to get the most nutrition and not impose too much labor upon the digestive system, should be understood by every housekeeper. What the physician does after we are sick, the cook should do before hand, then there would be no need of a physician.

This book is not intended as an inexhaustless treatise upon cooking, but a selection of recipes such as is needed in any well regu lated family. They have been repeatedly tried, with success, in school, at home or, by the kind friends who have contributed their favorite. With instruction given at the heading of each chapter it is hoped that failures will be unknown. Requests for information gladly granted.

Small rules have been given for individual trial, or for classes in cooking.
