RdAST TURKEY
Roast turkey is the national fowl for occasions
of this kind in America. In the ancient times
they used to prepare turkey, duck and capon
hy fcding them in different pastures, thus
building a different meat for various feasts and
styles of cooking. Even in the time of Lu
cullus in the heyday of the Roman empire, ducks
were fed with rice and tapioca, to the feed
troughs of which the unsuspecting birds were
urged to gormandize themselves. But the Fair
mont Better Turkey needs no such cruel prepara
tion. This master bird struts the field fatten
ing himself with natural grains of his own barn
yard in a certain pride in the share he will take
at the feast table. And at last he dies. That
is but the beginning of his service, for then he
must be dry-picked and stuffed with your fa
vorite dressing until he is a plump, full bird.
Place on the breast some of the Armour sliced
bacon or Armour Sim&n Pure Lard, which will
give a fine juice brown color. A turkey weigh
ing 14 pounds should be kept in the oven about
an hour and a half or two hours, adding con
tinuously some of the juice from the pan, bast
ing frequently. Balt and pepper, celery and
onions and turkey trimmings will make the
gravy the desired flavor.
