ANSWER - Martha Ober
hoitzer, Mifflinburg, wanted to
know where to get a sealing
ring for a 4-quart Mirro pres
sure cooker number M-0404.
Thanks to Mary Jane Way
bright, Gettysburg, for
writing that she also
needed a seal for her
Mirro pressure cooker.
She called toll-free Culi
nary Parts (866)
7278-4357. They told her
the amount to send to re
ceive the part.
ANSWER - Bruce Nat
tiess, Fleetwood, wanted
to know if anyone knows
of a source to buy replace
ment tips for the cone on
a Woodbuster PTO driven
log splitter. Thanks to Bob
Snyder, Akron, Ohio, for
writing that he doesn’t
think replacement parts
are available. “But any compe
tent welding or machine shop
should be able to rebuild the
existing one or make a new re
placement part,” Snyder
writes.
ANSWER - Shirley
Schwoerner, Wysox, wrote
that some time ago she had
clipped an answer in this col
umn from Joyce Raubenstine
who told how to make creams
from aloe vera. The instruc
tions were unclear, and she
asks if someone can tell her
the exact amount of aloe vera
to use. Thanks to Mrs. Benuel
S. Fisher, Strasburg, for taking
the time to answer. To crush
the leaves of aloe vera and
mix with four parts melted fat
and one part white wine
means take 1 cup crushed
aloe vera, 4 cups melted lard,
and 1 cup dry white wine. An-
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, September 27, 2003-811
d
other example would be V* cup
crushed aloe vera, 1 cup melt
ed lard, and V« cup dry white
wine.
Also, thanks to Joyce Rau
benstine who writes that you
must break the leaves of the
aloe off first. Then using a flat
stick, push the fluid in the leaf
out (working from the leaf
point to where it was broken
off). After the fluid is col
lected, heat it gently until thin
enough to strain through a
cotton cloth. Measure or
weigh the fluid collected. Add
four times as much melted
lard. Add only dry white wine
equal to the amount of aloe
vera you collected.
Heat mixture gently for 20
minutes in a double boiler. Stir
well with a spoon, and put into
a small jar with a tight-fitting
lid.
