For dressing take one pint of milk, four eggs, two teaspoonsful of baking powder, half pound of flour, salt, pepper, sugar; beat into light bat- ter. Fry on both sides in pan with hot lard, one tablespoonful of batter to each fritter. No. 86.—Pudding.—Place half pound of Indian meal in three pints of boiling milk lightly sugared. Cook for twenty minutes, add molasses, six raw eggs, and spices; mix well together. Put in a baking dish and bake in a moderate oven. Serve with vanilla or other fla- vored sauce. Green corn should never be allowed to heat, but soon as received spread out upon a cool floor. EXTRA EARLY ADAM S.—Very early, but more of the quality of field than of sweet corn.
