Buttered Beets are probably just Boiled Beets tossed in melted butter, but I haven’t found a specific recipe.
Rolled Sandwiches may be Rolled Bread, the first entry in the Sandwiches and Canapés chapter. It’s thin slices of warm buttered bread, rolled and tied with ribbons.

I haven’t found a recipe for Stewed Kidneys. Fannie Farmer has this to say about cooking kidneys: Kidneys must be cooked a short time, or for several hours; they are tender after a few minutes’ cooking, but soon toughen, and need hours of cooking to again make them tender. I have to assume that since they are “stewed” these kidneys were cooked for hours.

There isn’t a recipe for Duchess Sweet Potatoes. I assume you make Duchess Potatoes with sweet potatoes.

In 1914 September 4 was a Friday so of course there’s fish.
This is the second day in a row we’ve had Apple Tapioca Pudding.
The recipe for cream French dressing looks like you would end up with seasoned, curdled cream, so I checked A New Book of Cookery, from which the Good Luck Salad came. After the salt, pepper, and lemon juice, it calls for four tablespoons of olive oil and three tablespoons of cream, which makes a lot more sense. I’m guessing this was just a typesetting error on the card.

I haven’t found a recipe for Hongroise Cauliflower. “Hongroise” is “Hungarian-style” and usually means a sauce with paprika in it. The recipe for Hongroise Potatoes has a white sauce (butter, flour, and milk) seasoned with onion juice, salt, and paprika and thickened with an egg yolk. It would probably work just as well poured over cooked cauliflower.

In 1914 September 1 was a Tuesday. This menu is very similar to August 25 — same soup, meat, potatoes, and vegetable.
I’m not completely sure what she means by Lyman Apples. My best guess is apples from Lyman Orchard in Connecticut, which was established in 1741.
Tomatoes are abundant in September as there are 10 dishes featuring tomatoes this month, including recipes for 5 of them. I tried the Devilled Tomatoes, which you can see here:
The tomatoes themselves were underwhelming, but the sauce wasn’t bad.
