The Frontier W oman —
With Holidays Over Appetites—and
Cooking—Will Return to Normal
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Greetings friends and readers.
With Christmas over and New
Year’s^ too, and probably the last
of the candy and left-overs
cleaned up, appetites return to
normal and so does cooking
It was wonderful whiles it
lasted, but we can all get tired of
too much rich foods. They’re not
good for either the waist line or
•
| budget when one has too much.
This is a time to return to the
Id fashioned, family favorites—
piping hot chicken pie for instance
with baking powder biscuit top
ping. Kow about trying some
pressed chicken for a change?
| When I make pressed chicken, I
simmer 1 teaspoon celery seeds
with each pint of chicken broth i
for 10 minutes then strain. The
i celery seed gives the pressed
chicken a really delectable flavor- j
ling. I always use a tablespoon of
' unflavored gelatin to ea&h pint of j
broth, too. Then you are sure the |
'chicken is firm and delicious.
Stewed chicken should never
be actually boiled. It should be
simmered just under boiling un
til it is tender when tried with
: a fork, and don't use too much
liquid when you cook the chick
en if you want that full rich
"chickeny" flavor.
By the way, even the most an- ,
cient old hen will cook tender in j
the pressure cooker and can go j
the way of all good old hens. Per- j
sonally, I like to meet stewed
chicken in the company of really
good noodles, or light, feathery
dutmplings. Man oh man, now
there is a dish fit for a hungry
woman!

All new! All true!
Because of security measures
no motion picture on this subject
has heretofore been permitted.
Only now and only through the
full cooperation of our armed for
ces has Columbia pictures been
able to make this film on board
submarines, surface ships and at
shore installations of the navy and
army.
At last you can see this a
stounding new secret weapon , . .
and at last you can share the tre
mendous excitement and drama
of the men who man our flying |
missiles.

Soldier s Mom Wins
Subscription —
Dear Mrs. Pease:
I’ve enjoyed, your Frontier
Woman whenever a neighbor of
mine gives me her paper and —
wouldn’t you know it—I’m try
ing for that 3-months subscription
so as I can have a paper of my
own.
This time of year with all the
fruit canned, the caves and cel
lars full of eatables, doesn't one
have a grand feeling? Last year
I was in the hospital several times
for surgery and could just
get light housework done. Nearly
everything we ate was store
canned. So you can see why I
say I’m very contented with all
my jars filled when last year all
were empty.
My health comes first and I
do thank God for giving it back
to me enabling me to do so
much again.
From what I have read, both of
aur sons are in Korea. Ours writes
such interesting letters- home. He
recently was wounded slightly,
de helps carry the wounded down
:he hills after the battles. Neither
lis father nor I slept much until
another letter came in the mail.
Fhen he never mentioned his
wounds so we knew he was all
ight.
He has been on the battle front
almost 4 months. My, how our
aearts ache for the boys. We
lave yet to receive a letter of
•omplaint. He hasn't once writ
o®
| ten such a letter. He knew what
j he was in for and is the type of
I boy that everything is good
enough for him. I’m with a mil
I lion others who pray ‘‘Peace be
i with us again soon.”
I’m going to come and see that
: house of yours if I have to walk.
A couple of years from now we
plan to build one, too. I did see
the picture of it, you and the Big
Fanmer, and when I saw you with
a hammer in hand, I thought, “Oh,
oh, I’ll bet she couldn’t hit the
side of a barn, let alone a nail!”
Then I read, “For photograph
ers only,” and I heaved a sigh,
‘that's better.”
I’d suggest you leave the
front hall unpainted and let
everyone write their names and
address on the wall. Bet that
would be the first hall finished.
Don't you know it's fun to be
the first? Think it over, will
you?
Now to more serious sense.
Couldn’t we have some good 1- ;
dish meals? When we gals got lots
of vvork to do such as washing, j
ironing, or what have you, let’s
pop a good nourishing dish into
the oven and forget about it until
noon. Here’s one we like very
much, and with everything plen
tiful, anyone can make it.
YOU NAME IT
Place in baking dish in layers
liced raw potatoes, salt, sliced
•aw carrots, hamburger, salted
ind pepered, layer sliced onions,
layer uncooked washed rice (1
•up), quart canned tomatoes, pour
ver all. Bake until done at 350 F.
f you haven’t tried it, do so, it’s
lelicious.
Good luck to you and your fam
ly. 4 j t

7 Decks of Hogs
to Western Stales —
There were around 300 head of
cattle at the Thursday, December
27, sale at the O’Neill Livestock
Market. Best lightweight steers
brought around 32c. Heifers
in the same weight were bringing
around 28c. Some pretty good
breeding cows were selling at
$300 per head. Best butcher cows
brought $22.25 and they sold on
down to $15.25 on canners. Bulls
were quoted from 23c down to
22c.
Some of the Wisconsin heifers
brought over $300 with the top
at $330. Others of the dairy
heifers, including Holstein and
Brown Swiss, sold on down to
° o
o
$240.
There were around 1,200 hogs.
The drop of 50c to a dollar at the
central markets was reflected in
trading here at O’Neill. Light
weight butchers weighing under
200 pounds were selling from
$15.50 down to $14.50, but the top
butchers brought from $16.50 to
$16.90. Top sows were demanding
about $14.75. The sows sold on
down to $12.75 for those big, hea
vy ones.
The shipper market was very
good. Seven decks of hogs went
j to California, Idaho and Utah.
