'Just Gabby’ Thinks Elimination of
Double-Parking in O’Neill Okay
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Greetings, all you ladies! I
know you’re busier than busy,
putting up fruit, canning pickles,
doing all the numberless things
that have to be done this time of
year.
When it is so hot, one doesn’t
feel any too ambitious, but the
work, unfortunately always has to
be done ju9t the same. We had
a cool day recently, and I grabbed
the chance to make some bread,
rolls and butterscotch pecan rolls.
They’re always a favorite at our
house:
Mostly we like to eat cold
breakfast foods this time of year,
but pancakes taste pretty good,
too, in the cool of the morning.
And we always think that the
very best ones are made from
sour milk or buttermilk. You can
use either one in this recipe for—
SOUR MILK GRIDDLE CAKES
Two cups sifted, flour, one tea
spoon baking soda, 2Vz cups sour
milk or buttermilk, one egg (well
beaten), one tablespoon shorten
ing, (melted), one tablespoon
sugar.
Sift the flour once, measure,
adding baking soda, salt and su
gar and sift again. Combine milk,
egg and shortening. Add to flour
mixture. Stir only uutil smooth.
Bake on a hot greased griddle.
Makes around two dozen cakes.
Drop fresh fruits for canning
after peeling in a solution of
vinegar and salt water. Make it
by using two tablespoons of salt
and two tablespoons vinegar to
each gallon cold water. Rinse
the fruit before canning. This
i keeps the fruit from turning
dark.

Says Merchants Park
on Saturday Nights —
Dear Frontier Woman:
Well, it is the middle of the
afternoon and I would be
ashamed if some one would drop
in and find me writing a letter
with my house in such a mess.
But the rush is over and now I
feel the let down. The combine
is parked, after a two weeks run,
and it felt so good to have only
my family for dinner today. I
am some kind of an awful per
son for feeling that way, I guess.
But don’t think for a minute I
wasn’t thankful for the men who
■sat around my table and ate any
thing that was put on the table
and ate it like they enjoyed it.
Have been making some pickles
and surely am thankful that I
have managed to keep the vines
alive in all this heat and dry
weather. Will send along one of
my favorite pickle recipes. I’ve
lost the name to them so will
call them—
SLICED PICKLES
Slice one gallon of cucumbers
real thin. Cover with cold water
and one cup salt for seven days.
On the seventh day, drain and
rinse. Cover with boiling water
and one tablespoon alum. On the
eighth day drain and cover pic
kles with water and one teaspoon
ginger and bring to a boil. Boil
about five minutes. Drain and let
stand for 2 hours or more Boil 1
quart vinegar, five cups sugar,
one teaspoon celery seed, one tea
spoon mustard seed. After it
comes to a boil, add pickles and
bring to a boil again and seal.
I have a couple of hints I like
very much. I use a sponge when
I wax the floor. When I am done,
I rinse it good in warm water.
Being I am a farm wife and
have our own lard. I keep some
in the refrigerator for my pies
and cakes, after I have beat it on
high speed with my food mixer.
It will be as white and fluffy as
vegetable shortening.
Well, I have taken up a lot of
space and your time, so I better
get busy, as it is nearly chore
time.
Before I close 1 would like io
say thal ii is a very good thing
for O'Neill io do away with
double parking.
But I would like to have every
one go down the street on Satur
day night and take note whose
cars are parked next to the curb.
It is the owner of the store and
their employees’ cars! It would
be good if a few of those mer
chants would take a few good
ideas from John Conard of Em
met. But then I am glad we have
O’Neill even if we do have trou
ble parking. What would we do
if we couldn’t crab?
Enjoy your column very much
and hope I haven’t tired you out
too much from all this gabbing.
