The Wingham Advance-Times, 1952-04-23, Page 10Hello Homemakers! It is a mistake
to call rhubarb a "pie plant" when it
can lend piquancy to a molded salad
or a sherbet. To serve rhubarb as
fresh fruit sauce is nothing new—it is
about as favorite as applesauce
throughout Ontario homesteads. Rhu-
barb sauce makes a delectable addi-
tion when poured over steamed cake
or plain blanc mange or crisp cookies.

Canadian cheese producers are faced with a heavy surplus of their
products, and possibly lower prices since Great Britain closed out
a potential export market for 25,000,000 pounds ($8,000,000 worth) of
the industry's 85,000,000-pound output. While some factories foresee
reduced operations, top men in the industry are hopeful Britain may
be able to buy Canadian cheese later in the year.

ma put a rich drop biscuit batter on
top of a deep basin of cut rhubarb
and while it was baked in a hot oven
a custard sauce was made. The cus-
tard sauce which was often spiced
with nutmeg was poured over each
serving—and the serving dishes were

The Question Box
Mrs. R. W. M. asks: How do you
can finger strips of pineapple
Canned Pineapple
Start with ripe pineapples and a
sharp khife. Cut off the tops. Re-
move a piece from the bottom. Slice
the pineapple from top to bottom in
half-inch slabs. Peel off the cover-
ing, cut into half-inch strips and
trim to even lengths. Discard the
core.
Make a syrup of 2 cups water with
1 cup sugar, (This is sufficient for 2
pints). Cook pineapple in boiling
syrup for 10 minutes,
Pack hot pineapple into sterilized
pint jars and fill to within half inch
of the top. Seal ,-mason jars. Seal

barb cut in small pieces, 3 tbsps.
cornstarch and 1 egg, beaten, for a
9-inch pie.
Mrs. T. M. asks: How do you pre-
vent a rhubarb pie from boiling over?
The baking period should be watch-
ed to prevent a boil-over. Place 1 or
2 pies in electric even of 425 degrees
for 10 mins,, then reset the thermom-
eter to 3,50 and let temperature grad-
ually reduce to that point during last
30 mins. baking period or until fruit
is tender.

shelves that are % to M distant from
bottom element.

per or parchment paper stuck to edge
of pie plate will prevent boil overs.

The 11060 Mill
by Bob Culbert
Not too long ago, I was attending a
meeting here in Western Ontario,
where farmers ,made up the bulk of
the attendance. Some of these fellows
were late in coming, late in making
does not have those, "Hands you love
to touch," He is rough, inexperienced,
reckless, and Bessy expresses her in-
dignation with a well aimed hick
that deposits the pail, midway be-
tween the milker and the stable wall.
The inevitable results. The, human
element bursts forth in an instant
The farmer lifts Bessie's right foot
from his left one, wipes the milk
from hip glasses, and proceeds to
break the milking stool, his knuckleS,
and his New Year's resolutions, in
a sudden fit of anger, He chases away
the cats that have been lapping up
the spilt milk, pushes the dent out of
the pail, wipes it off, and sits down
again, this time a little farther back
from the scene of action, this time
on the alert for the first move, the
first ripple of Eessie's muscles, What
happens? You guessed it. Bessy does-'
n't want to play any more, she re-
fuses to give down her milk.
The school boy who used to nave
to milk a half dozen cows before and
after school is an oddity today, In
modern dairy farms the cows now
come to the milker, instead of the
milker being carried to the cow. In
many of these 'establishments, the
farm hand needn't even carry the
milk, it's piped direct to the milk cans,
in the cooler. Think of the upset that
can be caused by a hydio cut-off.
No lights, no power, no water from
the pressure system, no feed from
the grinder, no hot water for the
cream separator, and milk pails. We
sure have advanced our methods, in
recent years, One of the farmers who
was late for the meeting, I mentioned
earlier, said that he had a teen-age
daughter, who had never lit a coal
oil lamp before. There are thousands
of farm girls like her, thousands of
farm boys who have never milked a
cow, despite the fact that there are
dairy cows on the farm. Who was it
said that the farmers were "a bunch
of hicks?" Who was It that said they
were living in the yesterdays? Our
farmers are modern in every respect,
Farming has made fully more ad-
vancements than industry in the nast
generation, even the past decade. If
you don't believe this, ask Bessie the
cow, she'll tell you. "This generation
of farmers are darned poor milkers."

their appearance, an the chairman,
apologized with the remark that
there had been a Hydro cut-off, and
the farmers were busy getting their
chores done by hand. Like the old
saying, "you never miss the water
till the well runs dry," these farmers
never appreciated t,h e hydr o,
or their milking machines till there
was a cut off, and they had to rum-
mage around for milking stools, milk
pails and lanterns. Hands ,unaccus-
tomed to the squeeze and pull of
hand milking, have to be put back
into action, and they soon become tir-

stein, long since accustomed to the
comforting suction of the milking
machine, now finds that her master
