After using a gas stove for baking leave the oven open for little while to allow the gas to escape. This will prevent sweating and rusting.
 If chops and small steaks are placed in tin pie plates and set OF top of the broiling grate they can be well cooked. and the tin plates will be much easier cleaned than the broiler grate would be
 Keep the range black by wringing out a sponge kept for the purpose in warm water and rubbing well with soap. Wash the stove while it is not warm. It can thus be kept black and free from grease spots.
 Use the oven lighter for articles need ing long. slow cooking-as. for example tapioca and Indian puddings, bread, pies. etc. It will give a slow. even heat when used alone and burn much less gas.
 Gas may be saved by remembering that matches are cheap and turning off the gas the moment you no longer need it-by turning off the gas lit tie before the cooking is done and fin ishing by the heat already generated. When anything you have been cook ing has been heated to the boiling point turn the blaze low enough tc keep the heat just at that point
