ter cups wheat flour, s-4 cup corn
meal. teaspoons baking powder. 2
tablespoons of butter or shortening,
esq, 1-2 cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt.
Stft together the dry ingredients, in
Guiding the baking powder. and rub
the butter or shortening into them.

this to dry ingredients. Add more
milk II necessary to make a soft dough.

ROSES CHANGE COLOR.

Editor Social Corner--I was not
surprised that the white roses on the
calendar Blanche received turned red
SIZE must know roses are not always
true.
The yellow rambler changes 20
white. and the so-called blue rose
changes to an unattractive Lavender,
and other roses change their color
Among the tulips there are several
varieties celebrated because of their
changeless-like abilitSlte change their
color.
We cannot tell what makes any
flower change its color, but il is con-
sidered a rather pleasing episode il
the change is well made; 81
Blanche's white roses must have had
freaky parentage.
