RHUBARB PIE

Line a pie plate with paste rolled a little thicker than a dollar. Strip the skin off the rhubarb and cut the stalk into half-inch lengths. Fill the plate an inch deep, and to a quart of rhubarb add a large cup of sugar. Sprinkle a pinch of salt, and a grating of nutmeg on top, with a little flour. Cover with a rich crust and bake in a quick oven until the pie loosens from the dish.
