Home Demonstration News
MRS. VERA CARGILL, County Home Demonstration Agent
Mr. and Mrs. O. Biederman and
children visited relatives in Alice
on Easter Day.
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Schultz of
Victoria, Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Mills and children of Rockport
were home Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. T. Mills and chil*
dren returned to Raymondville,
after spending a few days with
her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H.
Thormahlen.
Easter baskets for her small
friends were no expense at all for
Mrs. R. H. Wyscarver of the Bay-
side Home Demonstration Club.
Not only were they no expense,
but they were a great deal of
pleasure. She learned how to do
simple weaving at her club, then
went home and began to work.
There are lots of honeysuckle
vines in the pasture, so there was
the free material all ready to be
taken home and made ready for
weaving.
These honeysuckle runners were
selected according to length, size
and eveness, long runners of
small size are more useful and
make prettier baskets. Taking
the runners home, she covered
them with boiling water and let
them simmer a few minutes or un-
til the bark would slip. This bark
may be slipped off with a paring
knife or with fingers. If fingers
are used, Mrs. Wyscarver sug-
gests that an old glove be worn
for the bark can easily peel the
skin off your fingers. After the
bark is removed, the runners are
rolled, sorted according to size,
and put in a safe place to be used
when needed. The larger runners
are used as staves for the basket
and for handles while the smaller
ars used to weave the body of the
baskets and are called the weav-
ers. The honeysuckle makes un-
usually pliable weaver's and is
very easy to form into any de-
sired shape when wet.
Mrs. Wyscarver has made dif-
ferent types of baskets, some are
in the natural color and others
have been dyed different coirs.
Both are very effective and make
attractive gifts, either as a bas-
ket to hold eggs the children were
expecting on Easter, or as bask-
ets of flowers, or fruit. Bases
for the baskets were cut in any
desired shape with a small cop-
ling saw and holes were burned
with a wire for the staves.
Since she was so successful
with her baskets, Mrs. Wyscarver
is planning to see if the strings
on the Spanish Daggar can not
be used instead of raffia in other
craftwork.
The Tivoli Home Demonstration
Club will convene at the home of
Mrs. L. F. Schorlemmer Wednes-
day, April 23.
Mrs. Alf Hufman is leaving on

Do not forget that all mattress
applications must be in before

Saturday, April 19, is the time
and Seguin is the place for the
district meeting of the Texas
Home Demonstration Association.
Refugio County will be represent-
ed by three voting delegates: Mrs.
E. C. Cowell of Bayside, Mrs. Al-
fred Huffman of Tivoli, and Mrs.
E. H. Keilers of Bonnie View.
The meeting begins at 10 a. m.
in the American Legion Hall and
a most interesting program has
been planned for the day. Prompt-
ly at 4 p. m. the group will be ad-
journed to give the visitors time
to get home before night. It is
expected that about 25 home dem-
onstration club women will at-
tend from Refugio County.
How is your energy these warm
spring days? After all, the rain
and cloudy weather we’ve had in
Refugio County, this nice sunny
weather seems to have a tendency
to make even the most energetic
of us sleepy. Why not tiy to add
to our energy with pinto beans?
They are among the cheaper
sources o f energy and since they
contain a large amount of plant
protein, as well as iron, phospho-
rus and calcium, they are a valu-
able addition to the diet at any
time. They also provide vitamin
B1 and vitamin G, so let’s try
some of these ways of serving
them for a little variety from
just “brown beans:”
Pinto Bean Soup.
1 cup dried beans.
2 cups water.
14 cup diced salt pork.
y2 cup chopped onion,
salt and pepper
Wash the beans well and soak
overnight in water to cover. In
the morning add two cups more
water, cook the beans until ten-
der and put them through a sieve
or colander. Fry the diced salt
pork until crisp, remove the fat,
and add the becon pulp. Brown
the onion in the salt pork fat;
stir into the bean pulp. Add hot
water to give the proper consist-
ency and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve very hot. And is it good!
Scalloped Pinto Beans.
2 cups dried beans.
2 cups water.
y2 cup diced salt pork.
2 medium sized onions, chopped.
4 tablespoons flour.
salt and pepper
y2 cup bread crumbs.
Wash the beans well and soak
overnight in water to cover. In
the morning add two cups water
and cook until tender. Fry the
salt pork until crisp, remove from
the fat and add to the beans. Mix
the flour with a little cold water
and add to the beans. Add salt
and pepper to taste and put the
mixture in a greased baking dish.
Sprinkle the bread crumbs over
the top. Bake in a moderately
hot oven for about 20 minutes, or
until the crumbs are brown. Serve
from the baking dish.
Pinto Beans with Ground Beef.
2 cups cooked beans.
14 pound salt pork, y2 cup diced.
!4 cup chopped onion.
14 pound ground lean beef.
2 cups tomatoes,
salt and pepper.
Fry the salt pork until crisp,
remove from the fat and add to
the beans. Then brown the on-
ion in the salt pork fat, add the
beef, stir, and cook slowly for
five minutes. Combine all of the
ingredients, add salt and pepper to
taste, and simmer until the meat
is tender and the flavors well-
blended.
For variety, a little dry mus-
tard with a small quantity of wa-
ter may be added.
