SAVES MUCH LABOR

able Work Of the kitchen-AIso
Prevents Breakaoe from
Hurried Cooks.

Dishwashing Is the bugbear of the
kitchen. Doing ones own work would
be a pleasure were 1t not for the in
evitable cleaning up.
Some women who cannot afford
cook will do without a new dress in
order to pay a small girl to keep the
dishes clean after each meal. Yet
rified at the thought Of buying q dish
washing machine.
The modern woman has to be edu-
Gated up to the idea that 1t is folly to
use ones hands where a machine will
do as well. Perhaps the fault lies with
the old makes of dishwashers, which
took as long to clean as to wash the
dishes. The newest machines are SIM
pie in construction, easy to clean, and
moderate in price.
The best dishwashers are made
with galvanized iron cylinder. into
which is fitted cylindrical tray or
basket. The cylinder Is half filled
with soapy water, which Is brought to
the boiling point when the dishes are
put into the tray or basket.
There is usually a ledge for the
plates, which are stood on end, the
saucers are put next, then the cups
and finally the other dishes. All that
is necessary is to plunge the trap into
the cylinder, turn the crank a couple
OF times, reverse it and the dreaded
task OF dishwashing is done.
The tray is then lifted out, set on
the reversed cover and scalded with
clean boiling water, which quickly
evaporates leaving comparatively few
dishes for drying.
A dishwasher not only saves time
but prevents breakage from hurried
cooks. When a woman does her owr
work not the least advantage of ma
chine dishwashing is that it pro
tects the hands from the scaldinf
water.
In using a dishwasher as In the ordi
nary process much depends upor
cleaning up the dishes before putting
them in water. Pans and pots SHOULD
be carefully scraped and have boiling
water put in them as soon as used.
The table china should be scrapet

refuse should be burned and it is bet
ter to do the scraping into an oil
pan rather than over the sink, who's
drains may be clogged with grease.
