Today we find ourselves sure of
good baking results dile to modern
ranges with accurate temperature
controls and delicate Savors from
manufacturers' tested ingredients,
especially the Canadian milled
flour.
Take a Tip
Scones and baking powder bis-
cuits• are known to Home Science
girls as soft dough mixtures. (This
group of mixes also includes dump-
lings and drop biscuits but we shall
talk about these items in another
column).
1. Have all ingredients cold.
2. Grease cookie or pie plates ever
so lightly.
3. Sift once an approximate
amount of flour from which the
required amount can then be
measured.
4. Measure the dry ingredients;
mix and sift them three times
into a mixing bowl.
5. Measure firm, cold fat (butter,
shortening, lard or margarine)
by measuring spoon. Cut fat in
to flour with a wire bender or a
knife until pieces of fat are the
size of peas.
6. Sprinkle cold liquid over the dry
ingredients and mix lightly with
a fork, adding just enough liquid
to make a soft but not sticky
dough. Work dough as little as
possible to prevent a tough bis-
cuit.
7. Knead the dough on a lightly
floured' board, not more than 20
turns.
8. Flatten gently with a lightly
floured rolling pin.
9. Finish the product according to
directions and bake in a hot
oven.
Fruit Scones
2 cups pastry flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
ya teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons shortening
la cup seedless raisins
3 tablespoons chopped cherries
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup milk.
Sift and measure flour. Mix and
sift dry ingredients. Add shorten-
ing and blend into the dry ingredi-
ents. Add fruits. Now blend eggs
and milk into the dry ingredients.
Turn onto lightly floured board and
knead for one minute, divide the
dough into two parts and pat into
rounds 3/4 -inch thick. Place on a
buttered baking sheet and cut each
round into four wedge-shaped piec-
es. Bake in oven at 425 degrees
about 15 minutes.
Home-made Quick Biscuits
6 cups sifted all purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
1', teaspoon salt
s/4 cup shortening.
Measure sifted flour; add baking
powder and salt and sift together
in a Large wooden bowl. Cut in the
shortening until the mixture re-
sembles oatmeal.
Cover tightly and place in the
refrigerator until needed.
For tea biscuits we use 2 cups
of the biscuit mix and a/4 cups wa-
ter or milk.
This dough may be used l'or:
(1) Meat pie toppings. (2) Plain ,
or fruit tea biscuits. (3) Cheese
biscuits. (4) Cobblers made with
stewed or canned fruit. (5) Short-
cakes for fruit or meat. (6) Scones
for skillet baking. (7) Pinwheel
biscuits for jams or jelly mixtures.

To the Editor
The Editor, The Huron Expositor:
Dear Sir: I am one of the farm-
ers concerned with the H.E.P.C.
which is running a transmission
line through Staffa district.
On January 19 of this year, the
foreman, W. S. Johnston, promised
that no further 'bush -cutting would
take place. Last Thursday (March
15), another crew with a different
foreman, Mr. Robert Ellis, cut
about 12 maple trees, practically all
undersize. I offered to make a
settlement of $25 a tree, but, my
offer was ignored.
I think it time Mr. Saunders
woke up to what is going on and
try to make a satisfactory agree-
ment about the trees, and thus pre-
vent a seemingly wilful destruction
of young trees.
STAFFA FARMER
Staffa Blacksmith, 83,
Finds Lack of Horses
Leaves Him Rusty
(London Free Press)
Shoeing horses is becoming a
difficult task for 83 -year-old Fran-
cis A. "Frank" Hambly, of the Vil-
lage of Stafra, not because he's get-
ting too old to handle horses, but
because he bas so fevy to handle
he's getting out of practice, he
says.
The veteran "village smltty"
spends most of his time now re-
pairing or making new parts for
mechanical farm equipment.
At one time ,horse shoeing was
the chief work of this veteran who
started out in the blacksmith trade
in 1987. "But we don't get many
horses now," be said.
Mr. Hambly, native of East Whit-
by, has lived in Staffs since he was
10 years old with the exception of
about two years in Miehigan and
a few months in Seafotth.
He tpok to •blaekuithing when
a schit)1 boy when he found it
much more interesting than read -
in', Titin' and 'rithmatic, and was
apprenticed in the trade by the
time he reached 19. He served his
apprenticeship at Staffa under R.
P. Nichols, and in 1894 took over
the business.
Mr. Hambly is proud of what he
considers a record when he once
shod a horse in 22 minutes because
the owner was in a hurry to attend
a funeral. During the . heyday of
blacksmithing he often turned out
and fitted 47 pairs of horseshoes
daily.
"You couldn't get into the place
for horses then. Now we hardly
-ever see a horse in the shop," he
said.
