       1 ts Salt
       1 c  Water

            Whites of 3 eggs
  
   Cream Crisco. Add sugar slowly and cream together. Sift dry ingredients and
   add alternately with the liquid. Add flavoring, beat mixture thoroughly and
   last fold in stiffly beaten whites of eggs. Prepare layer-cake tins by
   greasing them with a mixture of Crisco and flour. Pour in cake mixture; put
   in moderate oven, allow to rise for five minutes, increase heat to bake; at
   the end of fifteen minutes, reduce heat to allow cake to shrink from pan.
   Entire time for baking twenty minutes. NOTE: I copied this faithfully from
   the source, THE WAYS OF COOKING" circa
      1919    from Crisco.
