PAGE 6.—THE FRONTIER, O'Neill, Nebr., Thurs.. Jan. 24, 1952. o" The Frontier Woman — Nature Works Differently in Oregon; Vegetation Freshens in Fall (Like Spring) »T BLANCHE SPANN PEASE My goodness, the 3d week in January already, yet, as the Dutchman would say. And I said it! First thing we know it will be February’ and then spring will be getting into our veins. I jugt took a good look at our windows and they all need gash ing. I didn’t do any extensive housecleaning last fall, either. I thought we would be moving in- j to the new home and it would be •illy to clean the old one all up, when they might simply tear it down. Good thing I did up all the curtains and such, though, be cause we are still in the old house. Thanks, all you folks who keep writing to inquire about the new house. They have the floors in now and are hanging doors. Finally got my built-in cabi nets all planned with a center for mixing and food preparation, one for serving and one for clean up. Think we must have spent 13 •olid hours on it, and that did not include a good deal of “reading up” and studying that I did on the subject. I expect 1 made some mis takes but think we will like the finished work, if and when it's finally done (if it ever is). Of course, when you move into a new house, any old battered furniture you own will immedi ately look twice as old and bat tered. Grin. And of course, I will have to have all new curtains be cause none of those I have will fit all the new double windows! Ain’t it the truth though, you folks who have built new houses will know all about it! If any of you folks who built new houses have any unique innovations in yours write and tell me about them. We’d all like to hear —tfw— Oregon Reader This Week's Winner— An Oregon housewife, who does not want her name revealed, this week wins our 3-months’ sub scription. Dear Blanche: It has been years since I have tried writing to your column but have always enjoyed it and put many of the homemakers’ hints and recipes to good use . Apples being in season again, here is a recipe for apple pud ding, which can also be used as a cake, topped with hard sauce or whipped cream. APPLE PUDDING One-fourth cup shortening, 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon soda, Vz teaspoon cinnamon, 1 egg, 1 cup flour, Vz teaspoon nutmeg, 2 or 3 fresh apples, chopped fine, 1 tea spoan vanilla, Vz cup walnuts chopped, Vz teaspoon salt. Mix like cake, bake 1 hour at 350 F. Serve hot or cold. I have found in redecorating my bathroom that it is difficult to match accessories and paint. For this purpose I dye large white Turkish towels. For the stool cover, cut to size, hem, draw heavy string through hem, draw edges tight and tie.

SANDHILL SAL A doctor told me that a baby knows better than anyone else how much to take at feedings. No doubt the baby has inside infor mation. The world has now had civil ization for 5,000 years, historians tell us. We are horrified when cannibals eat one man, but we plan means that will kill thou sands with one bomb, literally blowing them to shreds or cook ing them alive. Would you call that civilization?
