All water birds should be eaten ss fresh as possible, because their flesh being oily, soon develops a peculiarly rank flavor. Also old game will keep from one to three daya longer than young game; therefore. If both kinds be oa band at the same time, cook. the young game first. And old game, ot course, needs longer cooking; it will also bear the addition of "extras" much better than will young game, which re tains Its milder flavor best when cooked plainly. In the cass of wild ducks and geese, warm water and a mild soap should be used, as wiping them with a damp cloth will not cleanse them thoroughly. Some times svsn this U not sufficient, because the strong flavor comes from the oil In the skin, and frequently It Is necessary to re move this covering altogether. As the flesh Is dry, brush the ducks or geese lightly with a I melted butter, and then dredge with flour before roasting. This will form a crust wbtcb will serve to confine what moisture there Is in the bird.

Flno cab bsK Is 2 cents a pound. Radishes S rents a bunch; spring onions 10 cents a bunch; cucumbers 15 cents ench; wax and suing beans IS cents a quart; oyster plant 6 cents a bunch; spinach 30 cents a peck; squash, tho summer and soft shell, 10 ami 13 cents each; leaf lcttttrs 5 cents a bunch, head lettuce 10 and 15 cents; parsley h cents bunch; Hubbard squash 10 and 31 cents each; pumpkins 10 snd 20 cents: Brussel a sprouts T3 cents a quart; California tnma topa 10 to IS cents a pound; beets 10 cents a peck; sweet potatoes. fc cents a peck; Irish potatoes 75 cents a bushel. Celery is espe cially tine and sella from S to in cents a bunch. Cranberries are llTVj cents a quart. Catawba grapes are the newest thing In fruit, having come In th middle of ths week. They come from New York and sell for 15 cents a backet. They will be on the market for two or three weeks. California grapes are not as nice as they have been, snd cost 60 and 60 cents a basket. Malagas sre 20 rents a pound. Florida oranges will last nearly a month longer and. In spits of their seeds and rusty exterior, they are better than tho new navel oranges recently In from California. The California oranges sell from 25 to 60 cents a doten and the Florida about the same. Lemons are 20, 31 snd 30 cents a doxen and grape fruit 10 an! 12H cents each. There are stilt a few pears at 40 cents a basket, and plenty of Jonathan apples at 40 cents a peck. All the new nuts will be In for the Thanksgiving tab" . Shelled nuts, however, are very high compared to what they have been. The pecans are 80 cents a quart, al monds 60 and 70 cents and walnuts 60 cents. Unshclled .English walnuts are 20 cents a pound, mixed nuts 0 cents, almonds 25 cents, pecans and butter nuts SO cents a pound. The walnuts arc not good this year, but the hickory nuts make up for them and they sell for 50 cents a peck. The last shipment according to the dealers of chestnuts Is In and they are especially fine, selling at 20 cents a pound. The cold weather Is sending up the price of eggs, and the best, which sell just now for 28 cents a dozen, promise to bring 80 cents If the weather remains cold. Butter Is about as It has been, good, sweet, roll and tub butter from 22 to 28 cents, and package cnamcry from 26 to SO cents a pound. All sorts of fowl is plentiful now and, not withstanding the demand for the cornfed Nebraska product, -the local ' market will not suffer. There are turkeys, chickens, ducks and geese galore and the wholesale district resounds with a cheerful chorus of gobbles and cackles and squawks ema nating from the crates that are piled high on the curb and even In the street. , There will be plenty of everything for Thanksgtv In. Turkey Is wholesaling at 18 and 20 cents a pound and will hardly exceed 23 or 22 Vi cents a pound retail. Chickens are unus ually fine and retail from 10 to 12H cents a pound. There is plenty of duck at 14 and IS cents and goose 12 cents a pound. Although no two dealers seem to assign the same reason for It, It Is a fact that oysters are not as plentiful as they have been. The standards in bulk sell for 40 cents a quart. This Is the sort that is used for stuffing and stew. The selects; In cans, cost 50 cents a quart these for frying and serving raw. New York counts are 55 cents a quart In cans. Early winter flowers were never more beautiful than they are this year and the woman who cannot find exact'y what she wants for her Thanksgiving table will be hard to please Indeed. There is an amazing variety of chrysanthemums In every color and ranging In size from the little buttons through the shaggy daisy and snowball varieties op to the huge towsley beauties that cost dollars a dosen. The purple or chids are gone, but the graceful yellow sprays are still to be had. Violets are beau tiful, but all the florists do not have them. Carnations, gorgeous colored and spicy, are plentiful and inexpensive, and all the win ter varieties of roses are to be had. the American beauties being especially fine. Narcissus and several varieties of lilies are also In. In these days of simplified living; and light housekeeping It Is still possible for people with limited cooking facilities to serve the regulation Thanksgiving dinner with a good many extras in tbolr own apartments. The delicatessen and the bak ery oven have made this possible, and scores of people will enjoy sumptuous din ners next Thursday (do almost every Sun day for that matter) that . has cost very little effort on the part of the housewife. Everything ir. the' way of salads, roast meats and fowl Is to be had hot nowadays, while the pastry, cake and bread of bakery make are used more generally than the home-made product. , For the woman who prefers to prepare her own fowl there Is also help. A num ber of bakers In Omaha make a specialty of roasting meats, game and fowl, which Is brought to them already to put Into the oven and turned over wheq done. The re sults are quite as satisfactory as by the home process. Many an experienced cook ha not yet learned that steaming Is a more successful process of cooking fruit cake than baking. It not only requires no more time, hut eliminates the possibility of burning or failure. The steaming process suggests to many a soggy, wet surface, not objection able in a pudding, but undesirable in a cake. This is not the case, however.
