The Frontier Woman . . . Dakota Gal Learns There’s Something More Important Than Schedules] By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE This is the time of year when potatoes get to tasting not so good. Scrub them well and cook a batch in their jackets for extra flavor. Serve them hot rieed, the jackets stay in the ricer. Peel those that are left and keep them refrigerated You can use them for fries with bacon grease, in hash, in casseroles with cheese sauce, and for potato salad. Asparagus is tkrely this season of the year, have you ever tried serving it with a lemon sauce? This recipe serves eight, so if your family is small and you don't like left overs, you may want to cut it in two. ASPARAGUS One-fourth cup butter or mar garine, y< cup flour, 2 cups milk, 2 egg yolks, beaten, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, V\ teaspoon pepper, 2 pounds as paragus, cooked, toast.

So much is said about sched ules, so I’ll tell of my experience, in my teaching work I always kept a rigid daily schedule. I al ways felt that one class was as important as another, one child as important as another and one grade as important as another. It worked out wonderfully. I en joyed imy work immensely and had grand success. When 1 left school teaching for homemaking for a time, I made myself discontented because daily I kept failing in keeping up my schedule of work. I was always behind. Happy me! When I made the adjustment and learned there was something more important than schedules. I keep a weekly list of work that I wish accomplished. But if Friend Husband comes in and says, "I'm going to drive to Os car's, don't you want to come along?" I'm always ready to go, schedule or no schedule, I go along. Furthermore, I’ve learned not to stew if all my work doesn’t get done today. Hapipness is what counts! I’m sending several recipes, fa vorites of Friend husband. A GOOD OLE STEW Slice 8 frankfurters and brown in a fry pan. Add half a cup of chopped onion and brown slight ly. Add 2 cups of any kind of cooked beans, 1 cup canned toma toes, Vi teaspoon salt. If desired, add Ms teaspoon chili powder. Add 3 cups water and boil gently for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Serve hot. POTATO PANCAKES Peel 6 medium potatoes. Grate and drain well. Make a point of grating them as quickly as you can after peeling. Speed counts. Quickly stir in 2 tablespoons flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tea spoons baking powder. Stir in 2 eggs beaten very light. Heat enough fat in a fry pan to make a good layer of fat. Don’t have to much but more than just grease the pan. Drop the potato mixture by soonfuls into hot fat. Fry on both sides until crisp and golden brown, turning only once to keep them light. Keep first ones in warm oven while the rest are being baked. These are good and men like them. ONE CRUST CHERRY PIE Bake crust first. Then empty drained cherries from a number 2 can into crust. Heat juice and thicken with 1 tablespoon corn starch, 1 egg, Vi cup sugar (amount depends on brand of cherries). Beat in 2 tablespoons sweet cream. Pour on cherries in pie crust. Chill. Serve with whipped cream. BY A SOUTH DAKOTA GAL’ SANDHILL SAL SAYS It takes a heap of cleaning in a house to keep it home like. Same people live as though they felt the Joneses were trying to keep up with them. A good home maker is proud of trying to save pennies. Thrift is a worthy component of a good wife.
