CARE OF THE PANTRY.


The advent of fresh supply u stores
should be made the opportunity for .
thorough turnout Of the stoieroom.
which should take place At leSst once
a month. The shelves ought to b
scrubbed with hot water and soap. No
soda should be used, for'it il apt to dis
color the wood and turn it yellow.
Kitchen paper put on the shelNes will.
of course, lessen labor, but it il not -
nice from point Of view Of appearance.
Unless absolute cleanliness iss main-
tanned in older houses the inevitable
consequence will be reaches. A1d, un-
fortunately, reaches are too. often
made a peg upon which to hang the
grievances Of the cook, who wills plead
them as an excuse for not keepSag the
cupboard tidy, and ON the same prin-
ciple If breakages occur it il tlv(s
due to the cat. says the Washtngd
Star.
Sometimes, Of course, reaches will ap-
pear upon the scene even in TIL, best
regulated storerooms, when stringent
measures must be taken. Everything
should be removed from the floo., and
carbolic powder must be thiekly scat
tered every night ON the ground and
floor Of the kitchen, too. In repl@nish-
ing jars and tins they should dfst b
emptied and then be refilled With fresh
supplies, while that which reH aimed
from the previous month should pc put
on the top. The duty Of keeping the
store cupboard tidy might well ibe in-
trusted to one of the younger smem-
bers of the family, for thus they learn
to take an interest in the work sof the
house, besides gaining practical tnowl-
edge and a sense Of order.
