PREFACE TO REVISED EDITION
We are giving the public in this new edition eighteenadmirable colored plates on three inserts which show thetwo most common methods of cutting beef, a chapter oneconomical dishes, one on Southern or Creole dishes, andabout fifty new receipts, in addition to the same superfinecook book that has been received with so much favor.
It is our aim to improve the book in every way andkeep it abreast of the times. No one—not even theUnited States government—has ever attempted suchexpensive illustrations of cuts of meat, and we believethey will be appreciated by every one who has occasionto order provisions.
The price of the book remains the same, and we areglad to furnish a greatly improved cook book of increasedcost as our recognition of the friendly attitude of thegreat public toward our goods.
