TURNIPS.
Pare and cut in quarters.

Boil in well-salted water for an hour, or until tender.

Drain off the water, and let them stand a few minutes to dry; then mash fine, allowing for about a quart a teaspoonful of salt, half a one of pepper, and a piece of butter the size of a walnut.
Or they may be left in pieces, and served with drawn butter.
CABBAGE.
Wash, and look over very carefully, and lay in cold water an hour.

Cut in quarters, and boil with corned beef an hour, or till tender, or with a small piece of salt pork.
