To Cook Chickens
To Cook Chickens By L. M. ANNABLE
CHICKENS when fresh are known by full, bright eyes, pliable feet, and soft, moist skin. Old fowls have long thin necks and feet and the flesh on back has a purplish shade. The best fowls are plump, with skin nearly white and the grain of the flesh fine.
