Sift flour, baking powder, sugar and salt together. Cut or blend in shortening. Add raisins. Put egg in cup and beat with a fork. Fill with milk and beat a little more. Add to flour mixture. Add enough milk to make a soft dough. Divide into two pieces and flatten each to about 1-inch thickness. Cut each into 4 wedge-shaped pieces. Bake 15 minutes at 450 degrees. While still hot, split nearly through and spread with butter and about 1 tablespoon raspberry jam. Makes 8 scones.
