This related link might help. Apparently baking powder replaced clabbered milk as a leavening ingredient.

"Clabber Girl" is a brand of baking powder. Isn't it?

Edit: Yes. Here. Wonder why. Does baking powder cause clabber?

Clabber is a horrible onomatopoeia that sounds like movement within something thick and clabbered, a hand pushing into a thick bowl of clabbered milk. Ugh. It's one of the top words that make me uncomfortable.
