This is a recipe that my Aunt had and we all love. I do not know when the
bakery went out of business but think it would have been pre 1950's but could
be off there.  These make a nice soft oatmeal cookie that keep well.  Hope
your readers enjoy it.

Henry W's Bakery Oatmeal Cookies

This recipe comes from one of the old bakeries in Corvallis, OR. These are a
moist and flavorful raisin-oatmeal cookie, though a little more work, they are
worth the extra effort.
            1 cup shortening
            2 cups sugar (at least 1/2 brown)
            3 eggs
            2 cups ground raisins
            1/2 cup milk
            1 1/2 cups oatmeal (old fashioned)
            3 cups pastry flour or cake flour
            1 heaping teaspoon soda
            1 teaspoon vanilla
            1 teaspoon cinnamon
            1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
            1/4 teaspoon cloves
            Salt if desired

Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees)
