Tested Strawberry Recipes. 
Dried Strawberries. —One quart of 
strawberries, clean off the stem and hull. 
Wash; add one pound of granulated 
sugar, put in a porcelain or granite kettle, 
set on stove, and heat gently till they come 
to a boiling point, then boil hard for 20 
minutes. Do not stir, just shake the kettle 
enough to keep from burning, then pour 
out on large plates, and dry in the sun for

quickly over the strawberries, covering 
them all over nicely. Steam for 40 min¬ 
utes; do not let the water stop boiling. 
This quantity makes enough pudding for 
four persons. Eat either with cream and 
sugar or a sauce made as follows: Break 
one egg in a dish, add one heaping table¬ 
spoonful of granulated sugar, beat light, 
then add dessertspoonful of flour and a 
pinch of salt; beat well again; then add 
slowly boiling water until the sauce is of 
the required thickness (about like nice 
cream) ; flavor to taste. This sauce is 
very nice with any kind of pudding, espe-

at least three days, or until the juice has 
becomes jellied; it may take a longer time 
or a little less according to heat of sun. 
Do not let them stay out of doors over 
night, as the dew will cause the juice to 
get thin again. When the juice has be¬ 
come jellied, pack in jars and make air¬ 
tight. These are most delicious and very 
delicate in flavor; the berries are whole 
and clear. 
Delicious Strawberry Pudding. —One 
cup cleaned strawberries, place in an earth¬ 
en bowl, set in steamer over a pot of cold 
water, place over the fire; while this is 
heating and coming to a boil make a bat¬ 
ter of the following: One heaping cup 
of flour with two heaping teaspoonfuls of 
baking powder and one-half teaspoonful of 
salt; sift all together two or three times, 
then add sweet milk or water to make a 
soft batter that will drop easily from 
spoon. Lift the lid of steamer and drop 
dally cottage pudding. The dried straw¬ 
berries are delicious in the above pudding. 
Cup Pudding. —Take as many cups as 
there are to be persons served, butter 
inside of cups, then place in bottom of 
each cup one tablespoonful of the dried 
strawberries. Make a batter of one egg 
beaten, three-quarter cup sugar, one-half 
teaspoonful salt, one cup of flour with two 
teaspoonfuls of baking powder well sifted 
with it, and one-half cup of sweet milk, or 
a little more if the egg is small. Fill 
each cup about half full of batter, then 
steam for 40 minutes, or until a tooth¬ 
pick will go in and come out without any 
of the dough sticking to it. Eat with the 
egg sauce, or without, as desired. When 
the puddings are steamed take out the 
cups and with a knife turn each little pud¬ 
ding out on the dessert plate upside down, 
having the strawberries on the top when 
served. 
Strawberry TartS. —Fill little tart dish¬ 
es or patty pans with a nice puff paste, sin¬ 
gle crust, then put in a teaspoonful of the 
dried strawberries; brush the crust over 
with a little sweet milk, place in oven and 
bake quickly. These are delicious for 
lunch. 
Strawberry Cookies. —One heaping cup 
of sugar, one of butter, one of cream, or 
half cupful more butter if no cream; one 
heaping teaspoonful soda and one of 
cream of tartar, or two of baking pow¬ 
der (if baking powder is used instead of 
cream of tartar), one-half teaspoonful salt, 
one egg, one teaspoonful of ginger, or 
one of grated nutmeg; flour enough to 
make stiff enough to roll out. Bake in a 
quick oven. Just before placing the cook¬ 
ies in the oven to bake, spread a tea¬ 
spoonful of the dried strawberries over 
the top of each cookie; do not put any 
more of the jelly on than necessary. 
These are also delicious, and nice for 
lunches. e. a. parsons. 
The Rural Patterns. 
The simple child’s dress shown will be 
suitable for any wash material. The dress 
consists of the fitted body lining, which 
can be used or omitted as may be pre¬ 
ferred, the waist and skirt. The waist is 
made with front and back portions, which 
are tucked to give a double box pleated 
effect and includes short puffed sleeves, 
while the neck is finished with a bertha. 
The skirt is made in five gores and gath¬ 
ered over the hips. The two are joined 
by the belt and the closing made invisibly 
beneath the tuck at the left of the center 
back. The quantity of material required

lining that can be used or omitted as ma¬ 
terial renders desirable. The yoke and the 
full portion are joined one to the other 
and arranged over it, and the trimming is

as liked. The quantity of material re¬ 
quired for the medium size is 3 yards 21.

Necessity vs. Luxury. 
The day has gone by when the farm telephone is consid¬ 
ered a luxury—time was, and not so long ago at that, 
when a telephone in a farmhouse was looked upon as 
such. Today it is a necessity. 
The Williams Farm Telephone 
has had a lot to do with bringing about this change, 
making it easy for the farmer to form his own 
telephone company at no great cost—keeping him 
ever in touch with his doctor, dealer, banker, 
freight-agent and all others in a business way—to 
say nothing of the social side, putting him in communi¬ 
cation with his neighbors at will. 
Think this over and write us for booklet “Over the Wire.”
