Heartier Sweets for Lunches
Welcome to October and its
bright blue weather Here's
hoping that by the time this
reaches pmt, it will not have
frosted and that we’ll get .moth
er two or three weeks of sunny
weather before it does
Flowers are always so much
prettier in the fall, and all of
us like to garner all the goodies
for winter that we can from the
garden before the blight of
frost.
The youngsters will be clam
oring for heartier sweets for the
lunch box, and so will the rest
of the family, too. These black
and white cupcakes are different
and delectable, so try them.

Dear Blanche:
1 was cleaning my upstairs and
decided I needed a little rest. I
larted to read The Frontier and
Ir ided I’d write a letter to the
Frontier Woman.
1 enjoy each letter and recipe
arid always like to see the read
er contributions in The Frontier
Woman. So I’m going to do my
bit by writing.
We recicved a nice rain of a
half-inch last night. The first we
had gotten lor a month, so it
was very welcome, although not
enough.
1 have been trying to keep my
cucumbers and tomato plants
alive by running water to them
when the stock tanks are filled.
They come first. 1 think I’ll be
able to yet a few pickles about
Saturday. , , ,
1 got my garden planted late
i,. .h. Hit -•
this Spring, so haven't had much
from it.
Did you know that you can
take some of your favorite out
! door flowers and plant them in
;x>ts to enjoy this winter1’ The
! month of August is really the
| best tune to do this. Particularly
phlox, zinnias and lantana, even
mangold, petunia and verbena.
Select a younger plant but leave
the pot outside until the latter
part of August.
Here is a drop cookie recipe
that’s good for school lunches.
BOSTON DROP COOKIES
One cup butter, one and one
half cups brown sugar, three
eggs, two and one-half cups
flour, one and one-half raisins,
one teaspoon nutmeg, one tea
spoon cloves, one cup nutmeats,
one teaspoon soda dissolved in
one-fourth cup tepid water.
Mix as for any cookie recipe.
Drop by teaspoonful on cookie
sheet. Bake at 375F from 10
to 15 minutes. Makes about 3
dozen.
As its time to gather the eggs
and water the chickens, I’ll quit.
So long for now.

M rs. John Melvin
Praises Victoria
Mrs. John Melvin has returned
from a seven-weeks’ tour of the
Northwest and West, visiting 15
states. She accompanied Mr. and
Mrs. Harry Shelton and two
I children of St. Louis, Mo. Mrs.
Shelton is the former Mona Mel
vin.
They traveled by auto and
made the voyage from San Juan
to Vancouver, B.C., by water. They
stopped at Victoria, B.C., and
Mrs. Melvin describes the Olym
pic peninsula as ‘‘the last fron
tier”.
• Victoria is a city of hanging
ii.,w rpots (or baskets) along its
main thoroughfares. There is a
strong English influence there,
reflected in the stately parlia
ment buildings and churches.
The tourists made a sidetrip to
the world-famous Butcharts gar
dens", she reports.
From Victoria the family
boarded a streamlined ferry,
K ..itu. across the strait to
Port Angeles on the northern
edge of the peninsula.
"This is one of the most spec
tacular areas in the United
States.” Mrs. Melvin declares.
"We went the northern way and
traveled south down the ocean
drive through the redwood forest,
and return to the midwest the
Southern route. . .
-AH in all it was a wonderful
trip, but 1 was glad to get back
to the plains and the wide open
spaces.”
