me pretty busy.
The kiddies keep me busy.

be over. Then it will be time for
school to begin. Our 3 oldest
children go to St. Mary’s
1 am sending you a recipe for:

Montana Reader Tells of Unusual Nuptials
Members of Wedding Party on Horseback
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Hi there, all you interesting
people!
Whew! Kinda warm around
the edges most of the time these
days.
These are the times I bless
my refriger
ator over and
over. It saves
so much ex
tra time,
work and
meal prepara
tion. For ex
ample, m y
salad for this
noon is red
unpeeled ap
ple, diced,;
cs,,ann diced celery,
Blanche Spann ^ cabbage
Penile shredded, sea
soned with salt, salad dressing
and sour cream. I made it be
fore lunch and if kept refriger
ated, it will still be crisp for
supper.
I will cook potatoes in the
meat juice left from the short
ribs in the pressure cooker,
later making the juice and pota
to water into gravy. I added an
onion to the meat yesterday so
the foods today will be season- ,
ed with onion, including the
with a vanilla mix for the third
pie, added eggs, and coconut,
and ended up with a cream co
conut pie.
All the various mixes or the
kind you can mix yourself at
home can save you so much
time and work lh<*e days,
and, particullarly for the har
vest and haying times, farm
women can lake advantage of
them.
I like to use a macaroni din
ner mix, too, and some of the
various other quick dishes that
save time.
There are many dessert var
iations and ways to use mixes
that you can learn about, so
that the things you serve need
not be monotonous. When you
make a tapioca pudding, you
can add almost any drained
fruit to it for a variation and to
make it go farther. A small can
of drained fruit cocktail is a
splendid idea, or a small can of
drained crushed pineapple.
You can add a square of un
sweetened chocolate to tapioca
mix before you cook it, and
then use a rotary beater to
blend it after it is cooked.
If you particularly like the
flavor of coffee, it is a simple '
matter to use a half cup of
strong coffee in place of half a
cup of milk. Add chopped nuts
after cooking for a super pud
ding. Chopped dates or raisins
are other ideas.

Montana Letter—
Dear Blanche:
I have been going to write
you for some time but it just
seems like I have not found
time till now. You see my hus
band and I are working on a
wheat ranch in Montana. It sure
keeps a person hopping very
long hours during the summer
days.
We have had quite a bit of
moisture this month. Some snow
and hail mixed in with the rain.
It was unusually cold this
spring, so everything is going
to be late to be harvested this
fall.
We have v,°ry beautiful
country out here. Can see the
Rocky mountains from where
we live. They are only about
40 miles away. There aren't
many trees so you can see a
long ways out here.
Maybe some of your readers
would like this little hint about
keeping the stove burners clean. '
That is the burners on the gas :
or electric stoves. I take alumi- j
num paper or foil and put in
around the burners. It keeps
from staining the stove, and it’s
so much easier to clean.
There was an unusual wed
ding out here recently. The
bride and bridegroom and wed
ding party were all mounted on
horseback—as was the minister.

SANDHILL HAL
When a woman says she’d
like a little shrimp, she isn’t al
ways referring to sea food.
And when a man says he’d
like a little clam, he generally
means for a wife.
One of the best ways to re
duce is that of firmly closing
the mouth after the first help
ing.
Why is it that most folks’
roof never leaks until it rains?
Picnic at Atkinson—
Among those attending a pic- ;
nic at Atkinson the Fourth of
July were: Mr. and Mrs. Laur- j
ence Haynes, Mr. and Mrs. Mar
vin Johnson and neice, Shirley, i
Cromwell, of Sioux City, Mr. 1
and Mrs. Bernard Allen, Mr.
and Mrs. Eugene Cantlon, Mr.
and Mrs. Virgil L. Laursen, Mrs.
Elain Dunn, of Chicago, Mr. and
Mrs. Palmer Skulborstad and
their families'. The group had
planned to go to Long Pine but
the weather changed their
plans.
Kin in Accident—
Mr. and Mrs. Elgin Ray re
turned from Sidney July 8.
Their nephew, Rudolph Rog
gasch, 17, of Dix, was badly
hurt in a motorcycle accident
Monday. He had not regained
consciousness when they had
left but seemed a little “unprov
ed.” He is one oi 7 children.
Mrs. Ray and Mrs. Roggasch
are sisters.

For a marble effect pie fill
ing, try using half vanilla and
half chocolate pudding, pre
pared separately. Put in the
vanilla in the pie shell, then
spoon in the chocolate and
stir around with a knife, or
make vanilla pudding and
then add chip chocolate to the
filling.
Lemon pie mix makes a nice
filling or sauce to serve on
white cake. Butterscotch mix is
fine to make a sauce for a choc
olate cake. Ever try making
devil’s food cake, or a good
sour cream chocolate and then
serving a large wedge topped
with whipped cream? Makes
such a delectable dessert!
Mold a package of raspberry j
gelatin mix by the usual meth
ods in a flat pan. Make a pan of
lemon mix in the same manner
of the lemon flavored gelatin.
Then cut each in small cubes
and pile in both colors in sher
bet cups to serve. It makes such
a pretty looking dessert.
