Mother's Brown Bread

Mrs. A. M. Wilcox

One cup sour milk, one cup sweet milk, two cups corn meal, one cup flour, one cup molasses, one rounded teaspoon soda, one-fourth teaspoon salt. Steam in covered mould three hours. This is sufficient for four baking powder cans. The batter is very thin and needs considerable room for rising.

Old Fashioned New England Boiled Dinner

Mrs. Geo. Kimball

Select a three or four-pound piece of corned beef which is not too lean. Soak it over night in cold water. Early in the morning drain and cover with boiling water in a large iron or porcelain kettle. Boil slowly and steadily. At 9 o'clock add beets, taking care that they are cleaned withouth breaking the skins. At 10 add turnips pared and quartered. At 11 add carrots cut in halves and a cabbage quartered, One cup or more of navy beans, which have been soaked over night in soft water drained and tied loosely in a thin bag. At 11:30 add pototatoes pared. Be sure to keep kettle boiling constantly and the contents will be ready for a 12 o'clock dinner. The beans should be buttered and served separately.
