Make a batter of i pint of sour milk, r even teaspoon- ful of baking soda and a little salt, with wheat flour enough to thicken sufficiently to fry nicely. Fry in cakes the size of an ordinary breakfast plate. Butter each cake and sprinkle it with sugar, piling them one on top of another. A little grated nutmeg improves them. Have the batter as thin as it is possible to turn the cakes well. These are delicious, especially if sour cream is used. SALLY LUNN.
