Sliced Apple Pie

(1st Prize at County Fair, Picton, Ont.) First, have pie apples, say Wealthies, Greenings Duchess, Red Astrachan. Line pan with light rich pastry and fill up with apples sliced thin and lengthwise. Sweeten to taste with granulated sugar. Add piece of butter size of butternut and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. When the top crust is put on, wet edges and rub together. Have a strip of cotton 1 inch in width, wet and draw around the edge.

Remove this strip when pie is done.

Note on Apple Pies-A soda biscuit rolled fine and put in an apple pie will keep the juice from boiling over and prevent the oven from getting sticky and disagreeable. Bread dust could likewise be used.
