Put the bacon slices in the bottom of a deep baking dish. Cover with an inch of water. Place cored apples that have been stuffed with raisins on top of the bacon. Fill all the empty places in the dish with yams, peeled and sliced thin. Sprinkle the top with brown sugar and dots of butter. Cover with lemon slices. Bake in a covered baking dish in a slow oven (300-350° F.) until the yams are tender, or about 1 hour. Mrs. R. P. Dew. Glazed Apple Slices 1 cup water 44 cup cinnamon candies 2 cups sugar 3 medium-size apples Prepare a medium sugar syrup by boiling together the water, sugar, and cinnamon candies for 5 minutes.
