ROAST LITTLE PIG. Mrs. W. T. Leader. A pig for roasting should be about four weeks old. Wash and scrape thoroughly. Rub inside and out with salt. Make a stuffing as for poultry, or use well seasoned boiled potatoes, using the liver chopped fine and fried in half inch of butter for five minutes. Sow 48 MEATS up the aperture, rub with butter and dredge with flour, cover with a buttered paper, place in a moderate oven and baste often. Bake from three and a half to four hours
