The Frontier Woman * % „ Snack Suggestions Offered Are Not Harmful to Children’s Appetites By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE This is the time of year when German pancakes taste sort of su per. If you have never served them at your house, why don’t you try some? These aren’t potato pancakes. GERMAN PANCAKES Three eggs, % teaspoon salt, % cup milk, % cup flour, two table spoons butter. Beat eggs until very light, add the salt, beating continuously. Then add the milk. Butter a ra ther large frying pan and pour batter into it. Place in a hot oven of 450-F. for 10 minutes. Re duce the heat to 350-F., and con tinue baking for 15 minutes. Place on a hot platter and serve with apple sauce or with powdered sugar and lemon juice. If you’d like to have a try at po tato pancakes, here’s a real Ger man recipe: POTATO PANCAKES Three cups raw grated white potatoes, two whole eggs (well beaten), 1% tablespoons four, 1/8 teaspoon baking powder, one tea spoon salt. Peel large potatoes and cover with ’cold water. Let soak sev eral hour before using. Pour off the water and grate potatoes. Drain thoroughly. Add the well beaten eggs to the grated potatoes and mix lightly. Stir in the re maining ingredients. Drop from teaspoon on a well-greased skil let and brown on both sides. Serve with applesauce. When you boil rice, be sure you use enoughjwater. Two quarts of boiling water, in proportion to 1 cup rice and 3 teaspoons salt is right. Rice can be reheated, and it is easily done. It can be added to boiling salted water and recooked for five minutes and then drained or it can be reheated in the oven by adding a little water in the pan and covering and heating un til grains are thoroughly hot. Water drained from boiled rice may be used in sauces and soups, or for starching fine fabrics and laces. Meat is an excellent basis for macaroni salad. You’ll need two to three cups cooked macaroni, one tablespoon chopped onion, one cup chopped celery and leaves, onec up chop ped cooked ham or beef, salad dressing, salt and pepper. Cut cold macaroni in small pieces. Mix lightly with the other ingre dients. Chill and serve on crisp lettuce, water cress or endive. If the children get hungry, give them something more nu tritious than candy between meals. May we suggest raisins, carrot sticks, washed dried prunes or peaches, fresh apple, or oranges as between meal snacks rather than too sweet candied and cookies. These are better for the chil dren and not too harmful for their appetites. These are good dessert ideas for school lunches, too. How many of you homemakers have top of the stove glassware? 11 have some and have had the -1 same set for years, never have' broken it and seldom a meal goes by but that I use them. I cook, serve and refrigerate in the same dish and it is such a work saver, besides being attractive and clean. —tfw— Late Senate Chaplain 'Lived His Faith'— Dear Frontier Woman: As we all begin the new year I should like to offer this sugges tion to busy homemakers to do more reading. How many of you have read “A Man Called Peter” by Cather ine Marshall? The story of Peter Marshall, late chaplain of the U.S. senate. Senator Vanderburg said of him, “I never had a more de lightful companion. To me he was the personification of ‘On ward Christian Soldiers.’ He lived his faith.” Death should hold no fears for us if we are prepared. Peter Mar shall is a shining example of be ing prepared. ‘BOYD COUNTY READER’ We need letters for the Frontier Woman. We have, by the way, used all our seasonal letters, too. SAYS SANDHILL SAL Now that you’ve broken most of those wonderful resolutions, live each day for itself, and try to be as good as you can one day at a time. Betty Muchmarried says it is no use to try to keep up with the Joneses. They haven’t even been able to keep the Smith’s dust in sight. Bachelor Bill says a fried egg diet gets monotonous, but some married men have to cok their wives' freakfast, too. Honored on Anniversary— C. E.

KALKOWSK1 Special Correspondent LYNCH — The recurring bliz zards of the winter of 1948-’49 and the storm of March 7, 1950, have taught farmers and ranch ers in these parts the lesson of “preparedness.” Martin Jehorek, farmer living IVz miles west of Lynch, has hauled approximately 2,700 tons of hay with his underslung from hay fields to the farm yards for the farmers of this locality. He has hauled 326 stacks this fall. The stacks averaged about six tons apiece although he has hauled several 10-ton stacks and as big as a 15-ton stack. These large stacks were all hauled on level ground. The longest distance he has hauled a stack was 18 miles and he has traveled as much as 50 miles per day hauling these stacks of hay. The most stacks he has hauled in one day was 14. He has worked from the south shore of the Missouri river to the north shore of the Niobrara river and west from Gross to east of Monowi on the east. The cost of the underslung is from $1,200 to $1,600, as the ma terials are expensive and hard I to get, yet the investment is rel atively low when one can haul one to 350 stacks in one season. Then it becomes a very cheap way to haul hay.. The underslung, which Mr. Jehorek made himself, consists of a four-wheel wagon consist ing of a heavy 18x14 foot plat form on two 24-foot heavy 8-inch “H” beams. The winch is fasten ed to the back of the tractor. One end of an 85-foot five-eighths inch cable hooks to this hay wag on, around the stack of hay, to the winch which pulls the stack onto the platform. The stack is also pulled off the platform with the winch.
