Sift everything except the shortening and milk. Then, with a fork, cut the shortening into the flour until it's all blended and is like a bunch of crumbs. Make a big whole in the flour and pour in the milk all at once, stirring until everything is blended real good. Dump the mixture onto a floured table or cloth and knead it for a little while, but not to long. Roll it out with a floured rolling pin. to about 1/2 inch thick, cut with jelly glass. Place on cookie sheet and bake at 450 for 12 to 15 minutes.
