VEGETABLE HOT-POT.

Use one turnip, one Spanish onion, one cupful of stewed tomato, one and one half pound of potatoes; one half cupful of tapioca previously soaked, butter, pepper, and salt to taste. Cut turnip into dice and boil until tender, at the same time let tapioca cook clear. Cut potatoes up fine, and chop onion fine and scald. Place a layer of onion at bottom of buttered baking dish, then tapioca, on top of this, potatoes, chopped turnip, and tomato,—with a little butter on each layer; repeat this until the dish is full, and have a layer of potatoes at the top. Bake in hot oven for one hour, the last quarter remove cover; add layer of bread crumbs and brown.
