1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets. Combine the
flour, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, cream the shortening and
sugar. Beat in the eggs. Beat in the lemon juice and lemon extract.
Gradually blend in the dry. Fold in the oats and raisins. Drop the dough
by spoonfuls 1 1/2" apart onto the prepared pans. Bake for 12-15 min.
until lightly colored. Transfer to wire racks to cool.

Notes : Chopped nuts may be added to this dough. If you substitute
undiluted lemon-juice concentrate for the fresh lemon juice, the cookies
will have a more tart flavor.
