Summer Squash. — Young green squashes must be fresh to be fit for eating; if they are so, the outside will be crisp when cut with the nail. Cut them in quarters, and if not very tender, pare off the outside skin; take the seed and strings from the inside, and cut the squashes small; then put them into a stew- pan, with a teaspoonful of salt
