CREAM TOMATO SOUP
One-half can tomatoes, a piece of butter the size of an egg, one-half teaspoon of saleratus or soda, two tablespoons of cracker meal, salt to taste. Boil tomatoes one-half hour; strain; then put on the fire, add the butter, cracker meal, and soda. Heat one cup of milk to each plate of soup, which pour into the tomatoes; after the soda sizzles add salt to taste.
