e oven from 35 to 50 minutes. Do
not open oven door for first 15 minutes after cake has been placed in
oven.

If cake browns before it rises to top of pan open oven door two
minutes; when cake has risen to top of pan finish baking quickly. The
moment cake shrinks back to level of pan remove from oven. This is an
old, reliable recipe given Mary by her Aunt, who had baked cake from
it for years.

MARY'S CHOCOLATE LOAF (MADE WITH SOUR MILK)

2 cups brown sugar.
3/4 cup lard and butter, mixed.
2 eggs.
1/2 cup Baker's chocolate, melted.
1/2 cup sour milk.
1/2 cup warm water.
1 teaspoonful vanilla.
Pinch of salt.
1 teaspoonful saleratus.
3 cups flour.

Dissolve the saleratus in a little vinegar or warm water. Mix as an
ordinary loaf cake.

INEXPENSIVE SUNSHINE CAKE

5 eggs.
1 cup granulated sugar.
1 cup sifted flour.

Beat whites of eggs very stiff and stir in thoroughly, then fold the
flour, stirring only just enough to mix it in. If stirred too much,
the cake will be tough. Bake in a tube pan. This is a delicious cake
if carefully made according to directions. No butter or baking powder
is used. Bake in a very moderate oven at first, gradually adding more
heat until cake is baked.

MARY'S RECIPE FOR ORANGE CAKE

Grate outside rind of 1 orange into a bowl; 1-1/2 cups sugar and 1/2
cup butter and lard, mixed. Cream all together. Add yolks of three
eggs, 1 cup of sweet milk, 2-1/2 cups flour, sifted with 2-1/4
teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Lastly, add the stiffly beaten whites
of the eggs. Bake in two layers.

FILLING FOR ORANGE CAKE.

Grated rind and juice of half an orange, half the white of one egg,
beaten stiff. Add pulverized sugar until stiff enough to spread
between cakes and on top. (About two cups of sugar were used.)

ROLL JELLY CAKE

1 cup granulated sugar.
1-1/4 cups flour.
4 egg yolks.
Pinch of salt.
1/2 cup boiling water.
1 large teaspoonful baking powder.

The yolks of eggs left from making "Pennsylvania Dutch Kisses" may be
used for this cake by the addition of an extra yolk of egg. Beat the
yolks quite light, then add the sugar and beat until light and frothy.
Add the flour sifted with the baking powder and salt. Lastly, add the
half cup of boiling water. Bake in a rather quick oven from 25 to 30
minutes in two square layer cake pans. Cover cakes first ten minutes
until they have risen. When baked turn cakes out of pans on to a
cloth. Take one at a time from the oven,
