The Frontier Woman —
Reader Suggests Sharing Each Other’s
Burden During New Strife in World
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Hi there, all you interesting
folks! Second week in Augusl
already gone, most folks haying
like fury, and gardens paying
folks back for all the hard work
they put in earlier in the year.
A busy time but a satisfying
4ime, too, when you stop to
think about it
It's a satisfying time in our
yard. Some of the investments
of the time
past are bear
ing fruit. For
2 years now I
have been
trying to get
some clumps
of colored
phlox started.
Two years a
go I bought
16 differe n t
kinds only to
lose most of
them due to
the awful
weather we had that spring,
Th is spring I tried again, buy
ing fewer phlox and all of
them lived and most of them
are blooming. A friend gave
me several clumps of purple a
couple of years ago, but I want
ed more colors, for in late July
and August the yard need bril
liant colors spotted in the bor
der I bought pink Charm, San
Antonio, blue boy, and salmon
beauty, also some others for
which I can’t find identifica
tion.
I
Pink charm and bright
•yet are as luscious as you
could ask for and several
others are In bud. A white
Even me by a friend is also
bloom.
Gosh, I wish I had 2 or 3 doz
en of such clumps, if only they
were not eo expensive. I plan
to buy more next spring and
try and get (more color in the
border.
Day lilies proved to be an
excellent investment, too. I
have them now in all shades of
yellows and oranges from a cool
lemon ice color, to a rich orange
that is tinged with a brick red.
And several kinds of reds that
were a gift from a flower-lover
at Norfolk and which have
brought me more pleasure
than I can say.
For me flowers are of never
ceasing interest. The dividends
they pay are so delightful. Hav
ing a yard and blossoms every
day to enjoy is just a dream
come true. I always wanted a
yard and flowers so that own
ing our own farm and having
a yard to work in truly has
been a dream came true.

Subscription Winners—
Mrs. L. H Hoy, of Lynch,
and “A Constant Reader,” of
Inman, are our 2 winners this
week. Each have been award
ed a 3-ffnonths’ subscription to
The Frontier.
Lynch, Nebr.
Dear Blanche:
Right now I’m "letting the
| rest of the world go by.” Good
ness only knows I have plenty
to do to keep me busy but I
really enjoy the recipe time
with all The Frontier readers.
I imagine you and all serious
minded people feel a little or
heavy tug on the heart strings
since this Korean trouble has
arisen, but just how far will
each of us go to lift the load a
little for the one next to him?
When dad rips a feed sack,
if mom discovers she didn’t
pickup her purse after she's
well on the way to town—how
much happier does it make ei
ther to crab about an uninten
tioned mistake?
Too, isn’t one happier and
of lighter heart when he helps
a fallen brother rather than
talk about him? How about it.
dear readers, let's give a
smile a try.
Since peach season is in full
swing, I believe this peach
marmalade will be an appro
priate recipe.
PEACH MARMALADE
Two and one-half pounds of
peaches, pared, pitted and chop
ped, 3Vz cups sugar, Vz pint
bottle of maraschino cherries.
Combine peaches, sugar, syrup
from the cherries and cook un
til syrup sheets from a spoon.
Then add the cherries, chop
ped. Remove from heat, cook 5
minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour into hot jars and seal.
Did you know that one can
obtain a vitamin C powder (as
corbic acid or cevitamic acid)
to add to frozen fruits to pre
vent discoloration?
We can obtain it at the place
we get our freezer wrappings,
etc.
Here is a good way to can
6tring beans if you aren’t for
tunate enough to have a freez
er or pressure cooker:
One gallon string beans, 2
tablespoons sugar, 3 table
spoons salt, ¥4 cup vinegar, to
prevent bacteria growth. Cook
; tender and add the above mix
' ture and cook 10 minutes more
j and seal hot.
Wish everyone would 6ign
their names. Makes one feel
[ closer and it’s more fun to try
a recipe of a friend* Most of us
j don't pretend to be writers so
j we certainly can excuse clum
■ sy sentences.
MRS. L. H. HOY
(Editor’s note: Never use
canned string beans without
1 cooking them 20 minutes after
opening. It is really safest to
use them only when pressure
cooker canned.)

Reader Sends Carrot
Pickle Recipe—
Inman, Nebr.
Dear Mrs. Pease:
I have written to your col
umn a number of times—once
several weeks ago. I have been
a constant reader of your col
umn since it originated and do
enjoy every bit of it
I will enclose a pickle recipe:
CARROT PICKLES
Scrape and cook 4 cups raw
wlioe carrots. While carrots are
boiling, prepare: 2/3 cup vine
gar, 'k cup sugar, 2 cups water.
Let come to a boil and when
carrots are done, drain, and
add to vinegar mixture. Let
come to a boil. Seal in jars.
This is very colorful and adds
60 much to a special meal.
"A CONSTANT READER”

Why Not Try Your Luck?—
Every week we give 2 3
months’ subcription to The
Frontier and you can just as
well be a winner. Why not
write about something original,
or you can send us some of
your favorite recipes. Tuck in
2 or 3 good household hints. If
your letter is used, you will
receive a 3-months' subscrip
tion to The Frontier. Send your
letter to Mrs. Blanche Pease,
The Frontier Woman, Atkin
son, Nebr.

They're Smacking Good—
GRAPE BUTTER
One quart grapes, Vz cup
water, 2 cups sugar. Select
ripe grapes, wash and crush.
Steam or 6tew the pulp, and
juice until the seeds can be
easily removed by pressing
through a colander. Add sugar
to the pulp and juice and jook
until thick and of a jelly like
consistency. Pack while hot
into hot sterilized jars and seal
tightly at once.

SANDHILL SAL
The hand everlastingly held
upward, outstretched, seldom
i has callouses on it.
If women go by their intui
! tion, then why do they ask so
many questions when their
husbands come home late?
Just because a person has a
| tender heart is no reason to
think that individual has a soft
head.
Lots of guys take a woman’s
j hand in marriage and make
| the mistake of not taking the
thumb, too. That’s why she
keeps* him under.
