Answers to Correspondents
BY LILIAN TIXOLE.
PORTLAND. Or., Nov. 17. While I
enjoy reading your helpful col
umn In The Sunday Oregonlan. I
have never ventured "to ask any ques-
tions myself. Iittt I am going to make
a start by asking how to make rice
pancakes. My husband ate them while
visiting, and he could not tell me ex
actly how they were made, but he said
they were so very nice that he Is
anxious for me to try them. So I told
him my only hope would he in asking
you. I am In hopes that I may be in
time for this week's paper. 1 would
also like to know how to make taffy
randy. My little girl Is so fond of It.
I have tried, but it always goes back
to sugar when I pull it. As the holi
days are drawing near, I think it may
be helpful to others. Now I do not
want to bother you more for the first
time, as I will be very thankful If I
ran see these questions answered.
Thanking you In advance,
MI'.S. n. T. IL
Here are two recipes for rice grid
din cakes, but of course I cannot guess
whether either of them Is In the least
like what your husband has In mind,
l'osslbly those he liked may have been
"pancakes" of the French or omelette
type.
No. 1. Rice Griddle Cakes (plain)
Two and one-half cups flour, hi cup
cold boiled rice, level tablespoon bak
ing powder. i teaspoon salt. V cup
sugar. 1H cups milk. 1 egg, 2 table
spoons melted butter. Sift the dry In
gredients. Work in the rice with a
little milk, so that every grain Is sep
arate. Add the rest of the milk and
the egg well beaten and mix gradually
to a smooth batter with the dry in
gredients. Add the butter last. Bake
like any griddle cakes and serve with
syrun. honey, jelly or marmalade or
preserved fruits, as preferred.
The sugar may be diminished in
quantity. If a less sweet mixture is
7referred, or a spoonful or so of mo
lasses or o honey may be used for
variety In j-lac e of sugar, the exact
tlegree of svee.ners being a matter of
personal taste. The exact amount of
milk will vary a little, according to
the moisture of the cooked rice and
the kind of flour used: so add the milk
?rdually.
liice griddle cakes (richer) one cup
milk, one cup warm boiled rice, one
half teaspoon salt, yolks of two eggs,
whites of two eggs, one tablespoon
melted butter, one-half teaspoon bak
ing powder, about seven-eighths cup
of flour. Four the milk over the rice,
add the yolks, beaten with the salt un
til thick and lemon colored. Add the
melted butter, the sifted flour, and
lastly add In the egg whites. Cook on
a griddle or in a small omelet pan. If
gas is used very light cakes may be
secured by giving the first part of the
cooking above the gas flame In the
ordinary way and then (instead of
turning the cakes) cooking and brown
ing the top part under the broiler. Or
they may bp dropped on, a hot greased
griddle and baked iii the oven to avoid
urning and yet brown pn both sides.
A little sugar, honey oij molasses (to
taste) may be added. Brt careful, how
ever, to use only a smal quantity or
you may spoil the texture. Serve with

any of the accompaniments suggested
above.
Let me know If neither type is liked
by your husband and I will try to guess
again. I am glad you find this column
useful. Ask for any other recipes you
may need at any time.
Taffy. (1) Two cups molasses, one
cup' sugar, ono tablespoon vinegar or
lemon juice, one tablespoon butter.
Boil to 2S0 degrees Fahrenheit, or Just
beyond the "hard ball" stage. Pour
Into buttered pans one Inch thick.
Leave undisturbed until cool enough
to handle, then pull quickly until white.
Draw out into sticks, clip with strong
scissors and wrap each mouthful In
a small square of paraftne paper. Use
a lanre kettle so that there la no dan
ger of boiling over.
If a strong molasses flavor Is liked
plain molasses may be boiled until brit
tle and then pulled as above, but the
mixture of molasses and sugar is better
for most tastes and Is easier.
I think probably you may not have
boiled your unsuccessful taffy to the
right degree, or you may not have had
acid enough to discourage "sugaring."
or you may have handled it unskill
fully In pulling.
You may like to try the following
recipe for the so-called "salt water
taffy":
Two cups sugar, 14 pound glucose
or white "corn syrup." 1 hi cup butter.
Cook beyond the "hard ball" to nearly
the "crack" (260 degrees Farenheit to
be exact). It should be just brittle In
cold water. Add three-fourths teaspoon
salt (or less If liked) and two ounces
pure glycerine. Pour out on a but
tered slab or platter. Add vanilla while
pulling and finish as above. As quite a
little "knack" is needed In pulling taffv
I would suggest that you take a prac
tical lesson from some friend who Is
particularly successful with pulled
candy. Let mn know If you need any
"butter Scotch" or "Toffee" not "taffy"
recipes, which do not Involve pulling,
but do need careful attention to tem
perature. '

glad to know how to use them In a
sauce.
No, 1. Prune Soup. Soak overnight
1 pound well washed prunes In 1 quart
cold water. In the morning add 1 pint
more water and simmer gently until
the prunes are tender. For "clear"
soup strain the liquid (using the
prunes for other purposes), add two
tablespoons very fine sago or minute
tapioca, a strip of yellow lemon rind
(no white) and. if liked, one-inch stick
cinnamon. Cook until the sago Is
clear and serve hot with or without
one-half cup claret or grape Juice,
added at the last minute. As garnish,
a spoonful of whipped cream may float
on the surface. Serve with zwieback.
If liked. Other dried fruit soups are
similarly made, very good results be
ing obtained by mixing several differ
ent kinds. Add a little water if the
liquid bolls away too much, or any
good available canned fruit juice If
the flavor Is too weak or insipid. A
dash of lemon Juice or a spoonful of
sugar may be needed in some cases.
Such a soup may be served hot or

. Prune Soup Puree. Prepare as above,
using either prunes alone or a mixture
of prunes and dried peaches. When
the fruit Is tender, mash to a pulp
through a sieve. Dilute to taste with
boiling water, using about two pints
water for one pint thick fruit pulp.
Reheat, flavor to taste with lemon or
very little spice, and "bind" by boil
ing up in It a level tablespoon of corn

water. A little wine may be added if
approved. Serve hot.
Cream Prune Soup. Combine well
flavored and seasoned prune or other
fruit pulp with an equal quantity of
milk (or milk and cream) slightly
thickened, exactly as In making cream
of tomato soup. Even greater care,
however, must be taken to prevent
curdling, but this can easily be avoided

To use dried mushrooms In a sauce,
wash them quickly In cold water, then
soak In a small quantity of cold water,
(so as not to waste the flavor) until

Eagle Creek. Or- Nov. 26. Will
you kindly repeat your recipe for the
"Brother Killer" fruit cake? I made
It last year and it was most delicious.
Please repeat the manner-of putting it
together and steaming It. etc I
thought I had kept the clipping but
can't find It. Hoping I am not asking
too much of a favor. K. . T.
I have had several "Informal" re
quests for this deadly sounding cake
(which Is equally good eaten hot as
"plum pudding"), so I am answering
your letter a little out of Its regular
turn, hut I have not space to give all
the minute details I gave last year.
English Fruit Cake. One pound (2
cunsl best butter. 1 pound (2 cups)
light brown sugar (pounded and sift
ed If lumpy), 1 pound eggs (8 or
according to size), 1 pound flour (4
level cups measured after once sift
ing). 2 teaspoons mace. 2 teaspoons
cinnamon, 1 hi teaspoons cloves, grated
yellow rinds of one large orange and
Jemon (use no white rind), hi teaspoon
almond extract, 1 level teaspoon soda, 2
-to 4 tablespoons brandy or spiced pickle
syrup. 1 pound seeded raisins (washed
and dried In a warm place until swoi
len), 1 pound white Sultana raisins
and 1 pound currants similarly treated
1 pound blanched almonds, cut length
wise, 1 pound mixed candled peels
(citron, lemon and orange), or hi pound
citron, 14 pound lemon peel, pound
orange peel and hi pound glace cher
ries If preferred. The lemon and
orange peel (and the cherries, too. u
good canned cherries are available)
may well be crystallized at home. The
peel must all be fln,ely shredded.
If the maximum of fruit Is liked an
other pound of raisins or a half pound
each of currants and raisins may be
used, making six pounds In all of
fruit to founr pounds of cake rounda
tlon, but five pounds of fruit Is really
rich enough.
Prepare all fruit beforehand, and
have ready greased tins with well-fitting
linings of three folds of greased
paper projecting one inch above the
tin. Mix in the usual manner for but
ter cakes, using the "whole egg meth
od (not the "separated white meth
od" (which often causes the fruit to
sink to the bottom). butglv as much
boating to the butter, sugar and eggs
as if you had separated the whites.
Put Into the prepared pans, scraping
the mixture to the sides, and leaving a
hollow In the center. Cover with a
greased paper cap or place In a "cook
ing bag" and bake four hours, watch
ing your oven carefully and noting
the "four-quarter rules" for cake bak
ing so frequently repeated In this col
umn. The cake may be baked In a shoe
box or corset box very advantageously
If no tip of the right size and shape
is available.
Be very careful In using the "five
tests" for thorough baking (so fre
quently given In this column), as the
exact time will depend upon the shape
of your tins. Put an asbestos mat un
derneath If there is danger of burning
on the bottom.
Better to my mind. Is the steaming
method, which avoids all danger of
falling or overcooking of the crust, and
that "burned currant taste" which Is
often a pervading one In ordinary wed
ding rake. Steam In two greased paper-lined
covered tins (giving "layers"
about Zhi to 3 Inches think. If covered
tins are not available, use greased pa
per caps on otherwise uncovered tins.
Steam continuously 4 or 6 hours, then
finish by baking 5. lo 111 hours, de
pending on the thickness of the loaf.
This method calls for less attention and
lens fuel than ordinary baking. When
ready to begin frosting cover the cake
(or both cover and put together In lay
ers, according to the shape of the
cakes) with one inch thick "almond
paste." using equal weights fine ground
almond meal and sifted confectioners'
sugar mixed to a flexible paste with
egg white, flavored with almond and
very little vanilla. When firm and dry
cover the entire cake with one-half
Inch thick boiled soft "nougat."
"marshmallow." or "white mountain"
frosting, liecorate with holly sprays
made of citron and glace cherries, or
with mistletoe sprays made with citron
and almonds or small candles. Or use
a "swirl" In putting on the frosting,
and decorate In conventional design
with cherries, marshmallows and al
monds. In mixing note that no baklng'pow
dcr la used; the lightness cornea chiefly
from beating. No milk Is used. The
exact amount of spices and flavoring
may be varied to suit taste. No mo
lasses Is used. It Is safest to weigh,
not measure, all Ingredients.
The cake will keep (unfrosted.
brushed over with brandy, burled In
sugar and kept In a burglar-proof safe)
for over a year. Portions of the mix
ture (say one pint) may be steamed In
covered tins (three-quarters full onjy)
for three to five hours and may be
served, hot or reheated, with whipped
cream, hard sauce, brandy sauce, or
frozen sauce as "plum pudding."
I must ask other correspondents to
wait until next week for their replies.

F THE benefit, of club federation
needed demonstration. It would have
. .. ri,v. at-o. when the
state omcers. the presidents of the fed
erated clubs ofthe city and many com
mittee members gathered around the
lunch table at the Hotel Oregon and
discussed club affairs.
The meeting was entirely Informal,
and the 28 clubwomen forgot they were
from dlffeernt clubs and that some
times they were rivals, or competitors,
and only remembered that they were
clubwomen, bound together by a com
mon tie. and were there to be helped
and to be helpful.
Several measures that had been dis
cussed at the state convention came up
for further consideration, and after
they were disposed of a general invi
tation was given to suggest work that
the clubs might take up. in which unit
ed action might be beneficial.
The first thing suggested was to
make an effort to prevent the keepers
of small shops contiguous to the public
schools from selling cigarettes to
schoolboys, and to ask the Mayor for
the assistance of the police offlcera in
enforcing the anti-cigarette law. A
committee consisting of Mrs. E. E.
Coovert. Mrs. S. S. Ball and Mrs. Allen
Todd, representing the Coterie. Mount
Scott Mutual Culture Club and the
Shakespeare Study Club, respectively,
were appointed to wait upon the Mayor
with this request.
One member reported having seen in
one of the larger towns of the state a
reel exhibited at a moving picture
show which had been rejected, as ob
jectionable, by the board of censors or
Portland. Believing that this could be
remedied to a great extent If the club
women of the state would Interest
themselves In the matter, a state com
mittee was appointed to confer with
the Portland board of censors regard
ing the matter.
Miss Mattle Beatty. a director of the
federation, was made chairman of the
committee, with Mrs. Lee Moorehouse.

A short time ago there appeared In
the London Outlook an article on "Anglo-American
and American-Anglo
Marriages," by Mrs. George Crichton
Miln. In the current Issue of Harper's
Weekly an author who often contributes
to its pages under the pseudonym of
"Anglo-American" discusses the sime.
subject and comments on Mrs. Mtln'ft
opinions. Mrs. Miln has arrived at four
general conclusions. "(1) An English
man who marries an American and set
tles down in England has the best that
either country can afford. 2) He is
not Irrevocably doomed to unhappiness
if he lives with his wife in America.
3 The American husband of an Eng
lish wife had better, for the peace and
contentment of his household, make
England his home, tt) The English
wife of an American husband is almost
invariably out of her element In th
United States, calk scarcely ever adapt
herself to her environment, and Is not
only uncomfortable herself, but the
cause of discomfort In others." "Ansrl"
Amerlcan" discusses each of these
propositions In turn.
