      1 sm Onion
  1 1/2 pt Water
      1    Bay leaf

      1 pt Milk; scalded
 
  Slice tomatoes and put them in a kettle with the
  onion, water, bay leaf, parsley and cloves. When
  tender, pass all through a sieve, rubbing the pulp
  through too. Blend butter and flour in a pan till
  smooth - do not brown! Add hot tomato liquid and
  stir til boiling. Season to taste. After cooking 5
  minutes, add the soda in water. (This neutralizes
  the acid of the tomatoes.) Just before serving,
  add the hot milk.
