THE BEST ICE CREAM
Is Made by Scalding Half the Cream
and Not Freezing IL Too Quickly

Good, pure cream, ripe fruit, or the best
canned fruit in winter, and granulated
sugar, make perfect ice cream" writes
Mrs. ST. Rorer, in Ladies' Home Journal.
"Good ice cream cannot be made without
good freezer--one working easily with
slide crank and double revolving
dasher. Scald half of the cream and dis
solve in 1t the sugar! This will prevent
the cream from churnng to butter.
When raw cream is frozen it has frothy.
snowy taste; the taste OF the favoriDg is
not prominent, and it is neither smooth
nor velvety in appearance.
After the mixture is prepared, before
turning into the freezing can, see that
the latter is in good order. Adjust the
dasher, fasten on the crank and give it a
turn to see that all is right. Remove 1t
for moment, pour in the mixture and
readjust. A four-quart freezer will re-
quire twenty pounds Of ice ana one quart
of coarse rock salt. Put layer Of salt in
the bottom of the tub, then layer of ice
about three inches in depth, another
layer OF salt, another of ice, and SO on to
the top of the can. Turn the crank
slowly and steadily until it begins to re-
quire force. II the can is properly packed
the cream will require from fifteen to
twenty minutes to freeze.
Cream frozen too quickly is not
smooth. The length of time required
depends entirely upon the packing, not
upon the freezer. The more salt is used
the less time Will be required for freez-
ing; the more quickly the ice melts the
more quickly will the heat be drawn
from the cream. Water ices require more
time for freezing than ice creams"

Maine has ighteen starch factories, the
largest number of any one state. Over
5000 persons are employed in this indus

works, New York stands away and be-
yond all others.
