So it’s time to remind you \ that if you have some school lunch ideas and recipes, now is the time to send them to The Frontier Woman, so don't forget., Just send them to Blanche Spann Pease, care of The Frontier Woman, Atkinson, Nebr. Everybody has a favorite choc olate cake and here is one bf a well - knowui home economist along with her never fail icing. You'll probably want to try this.

Dear Blanche: I have been canning fish this afternoon and am now waiting for the last ones to finish cook ing. Next week, I hope to start canning mulberries. It seems good to have mulberries and so much other wild fruit. There seems to be such an abundance of wild fruit this year and I hope to can and freeze quite a lot. A wire egg basket makes an ideal carrier for lids, rubbers and other small pieces of canning equipment. Everything is right where you want it when you need it and you don’t need to search every place. 1 really enjoy that nice beef cookery book. It has so many de licious recipes in it and I enjoy trying new recipes. When baking cup cakes in pa per containers, place them in two-piece jar tops if you haven’t enough muffin tins. You can bake all of your cup cakes at once and they will be uniform in size. Our little girl is 10-weeks-old today and is really growing. We enjoy so much every new thing she does. She spends so much time playing and talking to her self. During the hot summer months, one of our favorite desserts is strawberry gelatin ice cream with strawberry rhubarb topping, which is also made with gelatin. I am enclosing the recipes as some of your readers might enjoy them. STRAWBERRY GELATIN ICE CREAM Dissolve one package straw berry gelatin in one cup hot wa ter. Add Vi cup sugar, two cups milk and one cup cream. Mix thoroughly and freeze till firm. Eeat well and return to freezer and freeze till firm. It serves six. STRAWBERRY RHUBARB TOPPING Mix four cups rhubarb with four cups sugar. Bring to boil j hrv wn mrwmww* ■ Sit e of 56 Husking Contest D. E.

This makes two pints. A good cup cake to go with this combination is DATE-NUT CUP CAKES Combine one cup salad dress ing and one cup sugar. Add one teaspoon vanilla. Sift together 2Vi cups flour, one teaspoon soda, one teaspoon baking powder, dash of salt, *4 teaspoon nutmeg. Add this alternately with Vi cup cold water. Blend well. Stir in two tablespoons grated orange rind, Vi cup chopped dates, and Vi cup chopped nuts. Mix. Bake at 350 F. 15 minutes, or until done. I see it’s time to take the cook er off, so 1 had better close for this time. Mlts! RAYMOND DOBIAS A 1,000-pound steer yields only about 35 pounds of Porter house steaks.
