To Fry Smelts

Clean nicely, handle as little as possible; dip in milk, then in cracker dust, then in beaten egg, then in dust again; continue this until well coated; fry some salt pork in lard, remove the slices of pork, and put in the smelts and fry a light brown. Serve upon a napkin, and garnish with fried parsley.
