A cookbook you were meant to finish yourself — every recipe page faces a blank leaf for your own, and the woman who owned this copy filled eleven of them.
Sift together one cup of sifted flour, one-fourth teaspoon of salt; gradually beat in a cup of milk and an egg beaten until light. Beat two minutes with a Dover beater, and bake about half an hour in a gem pan, buttered, in fast oven. -Mrs E. A. Wadhams.
