The Frontier Woman —
Things You May Hear on Party Line
Sometimes Prove to Be Educational
Br BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Hi there, all you busy, bustling
folk. Got the garden in? Got the
glads all planted? Is the ground
warm enough for you to put in
thos.- dahlia tubers? Wait until
il»c ground’s warm, you know.
Dahlias should never be planted
until then.
You mothers of new babies—•
do you have trouble with cod liv
er oil stains on
the baby’s
clothes? Well,
let me slip you
a brilliant idea
as to how to
prevent those
stains. Just
give the baby
his cod liver oil
after he’s had
his bath and
before you put
his clothes on.
^ Then, if any
gets spilled, it’s
easy to wash it off the baby—
easier than to get the stains out
at lovely baby clothes!
Which reminds me that when
ever The Frontier doesn’t get out
on Atkinson route 4 on Thursdays
(when it’s supposed to) there is
a girl on our line who says,
“Well, Cal Stewart must have
been walking the floor last night
with that new baby again!” Grin.
The things you can hear on
a parly telephone line are often
very educational!
Are there some good bits of the
plastic table cloth lett over? You
might want to stitch them up in
to washable bibs lor the baby.
Another idea tor baby bihs is the
good parts of worn turkish tow
els. Unworn parts ot turkish
towels also mane very service
able hot noluers, if stitched 2 or
4 thick.
t'uttmg a towel bar on the
back of the oaoy s high chair is
sometimes a good idea. You can
keep a wasn cloth, hand towel,
ana the baby’s bib on the bar. Mo

Await Crunchy Friad
Chickens on Fourth—
Dear Blanche:
Have had good intentions for
fuite some time but just never
j take time to get the letter writ
; ten. Now the youngsters are tak
ing naps and the dinner dishes
are dried so will dash off a few
lines.
I certainly enjoy the letters
and especially if I happen to
know the writer. Today I’m as
thrilled as Mrs. A. P. because my
gas refrigerator was put into op
eration yesterday. For almost 2
years I’ve been hoping but 2
weeks ago, when my husband
told me it was going to be reali
ty, it didn’t seem possible.
What a time saver it will be.
as the cooling tank in the milk
I house is quite a distance from
the house. Besides, many foods
couldn't be kept there.
Now left-overs can appear on
the table a couple of days later
instead of at the following meal.
Even our winter ice box— the
back porch—couldn’t be depend
ed on, with so many spring like
days during the last 2 months.
Speaking of spring, sewing
time is here. The little ones need
lots of summer outfits so I’m
busy at the machine in most of
my spare moments. When gar
dening and canning time arrives
nothing but absolute necessities
will be done in the sewing line.
In the youngsters’ birthday box
was a buttonhole attachment for
the sewing machine so I am mak
ing dresses and shirts with lots of
buttons along with coat style
| frocks buttoned down the front.
Spring also brings baby
chick time and seed catalog*.;.
How we look forward to
crunchy fried chicken for the
4th of July and all the lovely
vegetables pictured make one
anxious to get seeds into the
ground right away.
This week I even saw peach
trees nearly in bloom, so nature
is anxious too. Just hope Jack
Frost didn’t nip them when they
did appear.
Here is a recipe for an easy
supper snack:
SOUFFLED CHEESE
SANDWICH
Butter 6 slices of bread and
place in the bottom of a greased
oblong baking dish. Slice or
grate Vi to Vt pound cheese and
place on the bread. Cover with 6
more slices of bread. Beat 4 eggs,
add 3 cups milk, Vi teaspoon salt
and dash of pepper. Pour over
bread and let stand 1 hour Bake
30 minutes in a moderate oven of
350 F. Test for doneness by in
serting knife in center.
Here are a couple of household
hints:
When cooking dumplings use a
glass ovenware plate for a cover.
You can peek without lifting the
lid and making the dumplings
fall.
Write the length and width of
your curtains on the wooden slats
in the bottoms of the shades. This
will save time when you are
ready to stretch them.
Use a pipe cleaner dipped in
silver polish to clean between the
tines of forks when polishing sil
verware.
Nap time is over so must get
back to work.
