Lesson No. 25
One look at this and Grandpa
will sit for hours telling you of
the days he chopped, or two
men with a crosscut saw, pul-
Se ling back and forth until the
chestnut trees fell to the ground
to be split into fence rails for the
pasture fields. If the chestnut
trees weren't plentiful on his
property he may have used oak
trees as these would last for
many, many years. Sometimes
for a temporary arrangement
he might have used sassafras
etc. In fact, while driving al-
ong the roads these days, you
flter and I will be passing this beautiful
/a.; Fred brick home and see the lawn
Cristi and enclosed with some of these
Seines of "old timey" chestnut rails
Dyke and which today command a very
Jrfolk, W high price, but back then Gr-
cky Wills anny would have conked him on
i, North the head with her apple butter
stirrer- if he had suggested a
yard fence of rails, unless they
were set in a straight line with
Posts. These zig zag fences
l wou [ surely have hidden her
ev]be- ',al flowers of Hollyhock,
Piney's (Peonies), Bleeding
t nearti Tea Cup and Saucer (
! Althea) shurbs etc. that she had
!planted around the yard.
[ Grandpa split these trees with

a wooden mall as a hammer and
a wooden glut for a wedge. If he
had a piece of broken steel ax,
this was used to make the in-
dentation to start the driving of
the "glut" beside it. These
crooked rail fences were laid six
to eight rails high and by criss-
crossing the ends they stayed
right there and no brute ( live-
stock) atempted to jump on of
these no matter how green the
pasture was on the other side or
a big field of corn growing.
When Grandpa had all or part
of his rail fence laid and re-
turned to the homestead for
supper, Granny had a big pot of
cressy greens, ham, cornbread
and other goodies cooked for his
meal, besides a big bowl of that
scrumptious apple butter she
had stirred all day in a tw-
enty gallon or maybe more,
copper apple butter kettle full of
transparent or "Pear Main'"
apples she had peeled the night
before, maybe with the help of
neighbor women, while sitting
by lamp light. She may have
been lucky to own on eof the
"Aladdin" lamps, these were
brighter because they had a
mantle inside to give more
light• She may have just had the
plain ones filled with lamp oil (
"As you sew,
So shall you Rip"
kerosene). While this apple but-
ter was cooking all day out-
side and being continuously
stirred with a stirrer ( some-
thing resembling our lawn
rakes of today, but with a
narrow, longer wooden blade)
and long handle , for it was
ruined if it stuck and scorched
in the bottom of the copper
kettle, which sat upon steel
bands with legs, over the open
fire outside. My job usually was
carrying the wood to keep the
fire blazing at all times. When
the cinnamon sticks or liquid
and clove buds crushed in a
cloth to powder form were
added to taste, at the latter part
of the day to the apple butter,
talk about an AROMA, this was
better than any you ever had.
When it was cooled it was put
into churns or crocks or half-
gallon jars, covered with a cloth
and paper, tied with a piece of
string tight at the top and there
it sat in the cellar ready for
winter.
to be eaten with hot biscuits and
butter or "gimme some more "
buckwheat flapjacks.
Well, Gramps you've sat here
patiently listening to me, now
it's your turn to tell us all about
the old, split rail fences, while
me and Granny hunt up the
pieces to make you this "Rail
Fence" quilt and after you sleep
under it, this will be the best
night's sleep you have had in
fifty years. Maybe tomorrow we
will go out and hunt up the "
real thing" and if you will give
me a boost, I'll still climb over
them like I "usta"•
If you are "hankering" after
some of that good Die apple
butter and know you "ain't
gonna Bit it nohow". Make some
slightly similar and much fas-
ter by buying a box or two of
powdered fruit pectin and a bag
of cinnamon candies ( this gives
taste as well as red color). Use
canned applesauce and sugar.
Make with the same "recipt"
for apple jelly ( add some more
cinnamon and cloves powder if
desired)• You will have a fair
substitute of the old timey kind.
Fry up a bunch of flapjacks and
start on your diet ...... tomorr-
ow.
