Baked Berry Dumplings.
1 quart of prepared flour; 2½ tablespoonfuls of lard and butter mixed; 2 cups of milk, or enough to make a soft dough.
Roll out a quarter of an inch thick; cut into oblong pieces, rounded at the corners. Put blackberries or huckleberries in the middle, sprinkle with sugar, and bring the edges together, pinching them to keep them from parting. Put into the oven with the joined edges downward, and bake forty minutes. Glaze with butter just before taking them up.
Fourth Week. Wednesday.
