- "Part One. This scrapbook was found in an old adobe house in Southwestern New Mexico. It was put together by an unknown person from clippings out of newspapers. There are many good recipes and hints. Also there are cures and remedies that were used in the late 1800s and early 1900s before more modern medicines were discovered, therefore it is not recommended that these old time cures and remedies be used. Wit and humor is intermixed throughout the scrapbook. Happy reading!"--Title page.
