Green on7ato Pie.

You published a recipe a while ago for
green tomato mincemeat, contributed by
masculine member. The reading and your
remarks upon the shortening tomato sea
son encourage me to tell members OF yet
another way of using tomatoes taken from
frostbitten vines:

must be sound and whole, Select those OF
uniform size and wash and wipe them.

Another Call on You for Patience.

Honey Cake.

Il noticed some weeks ago a request for
a recipe for honey cake, and I have not
seen a reply. Therefore take the liberty
and give myself the pleasure of contrib
uting the inclosed, which took down from
the lips of the eminent cook, Mrs. Anna
Scott of Philadelphia, and have altered
very slightly for my own use. The cakes
are nice when baked.
Honey Cake.-Three cups of flour sifted
twice with two teaspoonfuls of baking pow
der one-half of a cup of white sugar, and
the same of milk; one-fourth of a cup of
butter one egg. and cupful of strained
honey.
Rub and beat the butter and sugar to
cream, stir, and beat into this the milk
and beaten egg. Do this gradually, whip
ping light as you proceed. Now add the
honey in like manner and when you have
a light, smooth batter. work in the -four
with a wooden spoon. There should be flour
enough to enable you to make the ingre-
dents into a soft dough. sufficiently con-
sistent to be rolled into a sheet a. little
over a quarter of inch thick. Cut into
shapes with your biscuit cutter and bake
for eighteen minutes. Keep the pan COW
cred with thick paper for the first half of
the time. The cakes should be light ana
puffy. We call them " Honey Cookies and
like them.

Steps are to be taken at once to

To raise $25,000 or more Is the
avowed purpose of the Chamber Of

OF his continued efforts, explained that
