Prize-Winning Cakes
Anyone who admits to being a cook takes
great pride in turning out a beautiful-looking,
delicious-tasting cake. One need never want
for a cake recipe; they can be found in maga
zines, newspapers, food package wrappers,
greeting cards just about anywhere. In fact
some companies send recipe fivers along with
their monthly statements. So keep your eyes
open you might be missing a treat.
An ideal example of a prize-winning cake
is Peppermint Topped Fudge Cake. Made with
buttermilk and cocoa, it’s a perfect chocolate
cake made by the conventional method. The
Peppermint Fluff Frosting uses the egg white
leftover from the batter recipe.

Dear Long and Bomberger:
With all this rain we’ve had, I’ve become very interest
ed in my roof. What can you do for me?
Dear Leaky:
For roof repairs, we’ve got cedar shingles, both sawn
and hand split, in the short (repair) sizes. Of course, we have
them full size, too, for new roofs as well as asphalt, slate and
asbestos shingles. For patio roofs, we offer a choice of three
colors in fiberglas.
Incidentally, if your window sash has weathered, you
don’t need a whole new frame. See us for replacement sash.
Two important things
when borrowing money
You need a sharp pencil plus the specialized financial advice

Increased if possible. Providing the financingto insure this is
Farm Credit's job. Farm Credit loans are availableTiowforany
sound farm need. And, at realistic rates. Farm Cft*.
Credit interest is based on the unpaid balance
of the loan. That saves you money. *) B
