                <text>A small, but interesting collection.  The cards in this box spanned from classic recipes, to soap, to DIY bee pollen to keep your bees alive until they can start harvesting their own pollen.  There were also some repeated recipes and, of those, the Sour Milk Pancakes stood out.  There are two versions of that recipe in the collection.  Sour Milk Pancakes is the older version and expects that cooks have soured milk on hand.  Later on, the recipe was updated to use buttermilk instead.  From what I can find online, this transition happened as home refrigeration became more common.  Prior to homes having a refrigerator, milk would sour fairly quickly and would then be used for the acid in recipes like this rather than having the sour milk go to waste.&#13;
&#13;
Another standout recipe in this set is Sukiyaki (for 100 People).  The scale of this recipe indicates that this collection was built by someone who would cook for large events.  There are also a few other recipes, like Punch, that are scaled for a crowd.  One of the recipes (Chicken Casserole) is attributed to 'Pres. and Sis. Kimball' which could indicate members of the Church of Latter-Day Saints.</text>

By Florence Harting, Dayton, Washington, Past President of State Cow
Belles Association and wife of John Harting, a former Columbia County
Cattleman of the Year.

   1 can small onions                         (garlic salt and Worcestershire
   1 can small new potatoes                   sauce optional)

      Cut beef in small pieces, roll in flour, and braise meat in small amount
of fat. Put in baking dish. Add flour to fat in braising pan, adding liquid
of onions and potatoes to make gravy.

(See other side)

Back:
Some water may be necessary. Pour gravy over beef. Cover and bake
2½ hours at 325° F. Add whole canned onions and potatoes and sliced
carrots. Season. Bake 1 hour longer. Serves six.
   (I like to bone some of the short ribs and freeze pieces cut in cubes
for stew.)
   Short ribs are among the many Thrifty Beef Buys. You can easily
bone them out yourself and save money. They can be used many different
ways.
