Recipes from Mrs. W. E. Harper (Greenfield, MO); 1895.

Potato Salad, page 84

Four large potatoes boiled, cooled and skinned, one onion, yolks of two hard boiled eggs; chop all up fine, season with salt and pepper. Heat enough vinegar with table-spoonful of butter and pour over the salad.


Jellied Apples, page 145

Slice fresh apples, and put in a pudding dish with alternate layers of sugar. Cover with a plate and put weight on it. Bake in a slow oven 3 hours. A delicious jelly with slices of apples embedded in it will be the result. Better cooked the day before it is wanted.
