Tea Biscuits

 4 cups flour
5 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda 
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. salt
3 tbsp. sugar
Mix dry ingredients .  Put 1/2 cup oil in a 2 cup measuring cup and fill the remainder with milk.  Pour all in at once.  Stir with fork.  Roll out onto floured board and knead 5 to 6 times.  Cut into round shapes or triangles.  Bake at 400* F for 10 to 12 minutes, high in oven.  Foil pie plates do not darken bottoms as much.

May brush tops with milk and egg, if desired.
