Boiled Cake

One-half package of raisins, one-half cup butter, one cup sugar, one cup cold water, one teaspoon cloves, one teaspoon cinnamon, one teaspoon nutmeg, one teaspoon soda. Put on stove and let come to boil. Let get cold so that flour will not cook when added. Then add two cups flour and bake one hour in a moderate oven. - Miss Helen J. Stark, Williams, Ariz.

One and one-half cups brown sugar, one small cup sour cream, two tablespoonfuls of butter (small), one teaspoon soda, one teaspoon baking powder, one teaspoon each of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Beat separately three eggs, one pound finely chopped raisins and one cup of nuts. Use more butter if you haven't cream. - Mrs. Albert Lebsch, Williams, Ariz.
