Prepare the chickens, add the fat meat, the squirrel,
rabbit, or turtle, add the onions and the clove of garlic.
Boil until the onions and pork dissolve and the other
meats are cooked to shreds. Dip the meat and bones
out with a coarse strainer. If the meat is not thor-
oughly shredded mash it in a crock with a potato
masher. Put the meat back in the stock, discarding
the bones. Add Worcestershire sauce, then add salt
and pepper to taste. Add bottle of Chili sauce, and
four cans of tomatoes. Boil well, constantly stirring to
prevent scorching. When well boiled down add two
cans of corn. Cook five minutes longer, and serve.
This makes approximately two and a half gallons
of stew. The ingredients may be scaled according to
your requirements. This recipe has a national reputa-
tion according to advices from a prominent Southern
newspaper.

Food for Very Delicate Babies — Drs. S, A. McCosh and Chas.
Pinkney
This treatment has been found efficacious as food for deli-
cate babies, when everything else has failed. In cases where all
the prepared foods have been tried, with failure as a result, this
has been used with wonderful success. For the sake of suffering
babies, we give this prescription of the late Drs. McCosh and
Pinkney, of Atlanta, Georgia:
Prepared Whey
Take a quart of fresh, rich, cow's milk, stir into it as much
fresh pepsin (Fairchild's is best) as can be held easily on the
point of a pocket knife, wet in a half teaspoonful of cold water.
Put the milk over a lamp with a tiny point of the flame. Let
it stand fifteen, twenty or thirty minutes until the milk is just
blood warm, when it will form a firm clabber. Break the clab-
ber, let it whey and then strain through a strong cloth. Press
the curd gently until it begins- to get hard and then squeeze as
hard as possible to get out all the cream. Give the baby six or
eight tablespoonfuls with a tablespoonful of lime water and a
very little bit of loaf sugar. Give it just milk warm. The lime
water can be left out if the mucus in the bowels is not very
great, but if the bowels are much inflamed, two tablespoonfuls
of lime water will not hurt, but be beneficial. (Of course the
lime must be well washed). Whey is not heat producing, and
if the child is much reduced, the limbs should be rubbed once a
day with whiskey or brandy. After the whey seems not to sat-
isfy for two hours, and the condition of the bowels is improved,
the food (milk, gelatine and arrowroot), may be given cautiously.
