Is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Graz
ham In Montgomery City, |. p. un-
dcrtook to do his own cooking and
keep batch while his wife was gone
first he undertook the dainty work
OF making bread, this part OF work
dreaded by men lie not being an
experienced hand, did II some
what awkward. lie got the dish
pan, and put one pound OF Hour in
II and two lbs. OF soda, two lbs. OF
lard, two lbs. OF black pepper in
stead OF salt, four gallons OF sweet
milk; then he began to mix these
together, but found out he needed
more floor but not a bit more In
the house. He worked and mixed
and worried now trying to get the
dough oil OF his hands, but this
seemed impossible. 1t still getting
late In the day, Mr.. Shackford
hungry had no breakfast and could
not get the dough OIL his hands
He finally saw some one coming In
town and ran to the door and
asked him how In the world coult
he get the dough OIL his hands
He had the dough smeared al
over the floor from one end of tn,
house to the other. No n know,
how he ever got his hands clear
but was passing the shop recent,
! ly and saw he was at work, ant
his hands were clean. II there |,
any n who doubts this piece,
just ask BILL NYE..
