BAKED BEANS WITH TOMATO. Three cups of beans, half onion, one can tomatos, one table- spoon butter, bacon about three inches square, one tablespoon molasses, one chile ; soak the beans over night ; in the morning let them boil up with a pinch of soda. Pour off the water and cover with cold water ; add the bacon and molasses, cook until tender; then put them in the oven and bake one hour.
