Baking Powder Biscuits

Sift together three cups flour, one teaspoonful salt and three teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Chop into this with a knife one teaspoonful each of lard and butter, then add gradually about one cup of milk, making a soft dough that can be easily handled. Take on board and knead gently. Cut in small rounds and bake fifteen to twenty minutes in moderately quick oven.
