The Frontier Woman . . . ‘Busy’ Wants Tips for Cleaning Oven After Food Has Been Spilled, Burns By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE Don’t look now but that was the last of July just going around the corner. These days we like to save all the work we can, and when we are entertain ing, to make all the food prepa rations before hand, whenever possible. Here’s a cake you can make before hand, because it gathers moisture and will keep a full week without any loss of flavor, if you keep it cool. That’s why it’s called: SEVEN DAY PRUNE CAKE One and one - half cups un cooked prunes, lVz cups granu lated sugar, % cup shortening, 3 eggs, beaten, 2% cups all pur pose flour, Vz teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon mace, 1 teaspoon cinna mon, lVz teaspoons soda, \ cup boiling coffee. Wash prunes, boil in sufficient water to cover for 10 minutes, drain, pit and put through a food chopper, using a medium knife. Cream sugar and shorten ing, add beaten eggs and mix. Add prunes and mix. Add flour sifted with salt, spices, and Vi teaspoon soda. Mix well. Add coffee in which remaining soda hfts been dissolved. Beat well. Pour into three well greased lay er cake tins. Bake in a moderate oven of 375 F. for 25 minutes. Put layers together with butter and sugar icing. If you don’t want to bake this ;> cake this summer, save it for fall and winter use, but it will taste just as good right now! —tfw— 'Busy" from Emmet Wins Subscription— Dear Frontier Woman: Do you still need letters? Hope this one will help out. This summer season is such a busy one, isn’t it? So many things to do one hardly knows what to do first. Taking care of the garden will soon give way to canning. That is quite a chore in this hot weather, but it is so gratifying to see those rows of shining jars of good things to eat. It gives one such a feeling of accomplishment. These nightly showers of rain certainly help keep the kitchen floor tracked up with foot prints, but I have tile in the kitchen and it does do up beautifully and easily. I’ve been wondering if any of your readers could give me a hint on cleaning up my oven af ter I bake. It does seem to get greasy and spotted and I have quite a time cleaning it, especial lv food that has been spilled and burned to the bottom. I have a household hint I would like to pass along. I have a card file in a box and I have ironed over each card with waxed paper and a warm iron. This helps to keep them clean from water and food spots when using them. I am sending along a favorite recipe: EASY DUTCH APPLE CAKE Two cups less two tablespoons sifted flour, three tablespoons su gar, one tablespoon baking pow der, Vz teasDOon salt, three table sooons milk, two large aoples (sliced), three tablespoons sugar, one teaspoon cinnamon, one ta blespoon butter. Set the oven at 425 F. Grease a nine inch round cake pan and line with waxed paper. Sift to gether flour, sugar, baking pow der and salt. Cut in butter. Add eggs and milk, beat until blend ed. Press dough evenly in pan. Arrange apples prettily on top, sprinkle with sugar and cinna mon. Dot with butter. Bake 50 minutes. I’ll close now and get back to the many tasks which keep me “BUSY” SAYS SANDHILL SAL Says this has been one of the hottest months she can remem ber and that the political con ventions can’t be blamed for all of it. . No husband who writes “I love you” on the top of the table that hasn’t been dusted, has a sense of humor that can really be trusted. It may not be very exciting to live in a small town but you us ually know who starts the scan dals. MILLER THEATRE — Atkinson, Nebr. — Fri.-Sal. August 1-2 — also — Sun.-Mon.,Tues.
