Polenta--Corn Meal
Take an iron kettle, put in two quarts water with one tablespoon salt.
Heat and before boiling, slowly pour in your corn meal, stirring
continuously until you have it very stiff. Put on lid and let boil for
an hour or more. Turn out in a pan and keep warm. Later this is turned
out on a platter for the table.
Cut it in pieces of about an inch wide for each plate and on this the
following sauce is added with a teaspoon Parmesan cheese added to each
piece.
Brown a good sized onion in two tablespoons butter, add 1/2 clove of
garlic, about 5 pieces of dried mushroom, being well soaked in water
(use the water also) dissolve a little extract of beef, pouring that
into this with a little more water, salt and some paprika--a pinch of
sugar and 1/3 teaspoon vinegar.
A little flour to make a nice gravy. This makes it very palatable.
It takes about ten minutes to cook.
Serve in gravy bowl--a spoonful on each piece of Polenta. Added to that
the grated cheese, is all that is needed for a whole meal. Apple sauce
should be served with this dish.

STATE OF ARIZONA
EXECUTIVE MANSION
Since equal suffrage became effective in Arizona
in December, 1912, the many critics of the
innovation have been quite effectually silenced by
the advantageous manner in which enfranchisement
of women has operated. Not only have the women of
this state evinced an intelligent and active
interest in governmental issues, but in several
instances important offices have been conferred
upon that element of the electorate which recently
acquired the elective franchise. Kindly assure
your co-workers in Pennsylvania of my best wishes
for their success.

When Heat Turns Milk Sour
Here is a sour cream filling for cake: Mix equal quantities of thick,
sour cream, chopped nuts and raisins. Add a little sugar and lemon
juice, enough to give the proper taste, and spread between layers of
cake.
* * * * *
Many kinds of cookies can be made with sour milk. Here is the recipe for
a good sort: Cream half a cup of butter with a cup of sugar and add a
cup of sour milk in which three-quarters of a teaspoon of soda has been
dissolved, and two cups or a little more of flour, sifted with half a
teaspoon of cloves, half a teaspoon of cinnamon and a teaspoon of salt.
Chill the dough before cutting the cookies. It must be rolled thin.
* * * * *
Corn bread can be made with sour milk in this way: Sift a cup of
cornmeal with half a cup of flour, half a teaspoon of salt, a tablespoon
of shortening (clear chicken fat that has been fried out is a good
kind), and then add a cupful of sour milk and a beaten egg. Lastly, add
half a teaspoon of soda. It is well to add the soda last, where a light
mixture is desired, as it begins to give off carbon dioxide, the gas
that makes the dough rise, as soon as it is moist and comes in contact
with the acid of the sour milk.
* * * * *
Graham bread made with sour milk in this way is delicious: Sift together
a cup and a half of graham flour and one of white. Add a cup of broken
nut meats and a teaspoon of salt. Then stir in half a cup of milk and a
cup and a half of sour milk, and, lastly, add a teaspoon of soda. The
soda may be sifted into a little of the white flour and added last, if
adding it with the flour is easier.

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon cream of tartar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 pinch of salt
Beat the eggs until light--not stiff; sift sugar 7 times, add to eggs,
beating as little as possible. Sift flour 9 times, using only the
cupful, discarding the extra flour; then put in the flour the cream of
tartar; add this to the eggs and sugar; now the vanilla. Put in angel
cake pan with feet. Put in oven with very little heat. Great care must
be used in baking this cake to insure success. Light the oven when you
commence preparing material. After the first 10 minutes in oven,
increase heat and continue to do so every five minutes until the last 4
or 5 minutes, when strong heat must be used. At thirty minutes remove
cake and invert pan allowing to stand thus until cold.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA
EXECUTIVE MANSION
Since its adoption in October, 1911, equal
suffrage in California has been put to the most
thorough and severe test. Every conceivable sort
of election has been held in the past three years,
and women have been called upon to exercise their
new privilege and perform their added duty not
alone in the usual fashion, but in various
primaries, including one for presidential
preference, in local option elections, and they
have been compelled to pass on laws and
governmental policies presented to the electorate
by the initiative and referendum.
The women have met the test and equal suffrage in
California has fully justified itself. In nineteen
eleven, by a very narrow margin the amendment
carried.
Were it to be again submitted, the vote in its
favor would be overwhelming.

Ratan Kuchen
1/2 lb. butter
1 pint milk
4 eggs
1 cake yeast
3/4 cup seedless raisins
1/4 pound blanched almonds (split)
1 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
Soak yeast in a little warm water and some of the milk 10 minutes, then
set a sponge and let it stand about 1 hour (before breakfast); cream
butter; add sugar and beat thoroughly; beat the 4 eggs light and add
gradually to creamed butter and sugar; now add the other 1/2 pint of
milk.
Beat well and add the raisins, dredge with a little flour; now add
sponge and beat all thoroughly for 1/2 hour till it drops from the spoon
a little thicker than a sweet cake.
Grease your pan with butter and take the split almonds and stick them on
the side of the pan. Bake nearly an hour.
This makes 2 small cakes or one large one. Very fine German Coffee Cake.
You should use a pan with a tube in the center.
Golden Cake
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
Yolks 10 eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons orange extract
cream butter
Add sugar gradually and yolks of eggs beaten until thick, add lemon
colored extract. Mix and sift flour and baking powder and add
alternately with milk to first mixture.
Pineapple Cake
1 egg
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 cups flour
Make in two layers and when ready to serve put grated pineapple on each
layer of cake. Whip half a pint of cream, sweeten to taste and put over
pineapples.
(Bananas can be used instead of pineapples).
Ginger Cookies
3 lbs. flour
1 lb. butter and lard mixed
1 lb. brown sugar
1 pint molasses
1 good sized teaspoon of soda or 2 level ones.
Add ginger to taste--about 4 level teaspoons, also lemon extract or
grated rind and juice if preferred.
Put flour, sugar and butter together and rub thoroughly. Make hole in
center and pour in the molasses in which the soda has been beaten in.
Stir all well together, break off enough to roll out; cut, space in pan
and bake in very moderate oven.
These keep well, especially in stone crock. This recipe makes a quantity
if cut with small cutter.
Pound Cake
1 lb. flour
1 lb. pulverized sugar
flavoring
1 lb. butter
10 eggs
Cream butter and sugar to finest possible consistency. Add 1/4 of the

at a time and beat thoroughly after each addition of egg. When eggs are
all in, add balance of flour and flavoring and beat.
Bake in a slow oven one and one-half hours.
Hints:--Secret of fine pound cake is in the mixing, much beating being
essential.
One-half the recipe serves fifteen persons amply.
A paler yellow cake can be had by substituting the whites of two eggs
for every yolk discarded.
In the full recipe not more than four yolks should be discarded.
A very little lemon combined with vanilla or almond, improves the flavor
of the cake.
Bake, if possible, in an old-fashioned tin pan with a center tube.

in the lard will prevent the lard taste.

1 Cup Butter
1 tablespoon Lard
2 cups Sugar
1 cup Sweet Milk
3 Eggs
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 Quart Flour

"Do not misunderstand me. Woman suffrage is right.
It is just. It is expedient. In all moral issues
the woman voters make a loyal legion that cannot
be betrayed to the forces of evil; and however
they are betrayed--as we all are--in campaigns
against the Beast, the good that they do in an
election is a great gain to a community and a
powerful aid to reform. I believe that when the
women see the Beast, they will be the first to
attack it. I believe that in this our first
successful campaign against it, the women saved
us."

After observing the operation of the women
suffrage laws and full political rights in the

without reservation in favor of woman suffrage and
equal political rights for women for all the
