cause it is one Of the greatest conven-

AS a prize for the third best cake
We will give a Corona rooster. This
rooster is formed from a single sheet
of steel, heavily enameled. 1t is pro-
vided with an air cushion which pre-
vents burning or drying the roast. IT
is cleaned as easily as an ordinary
dish. The woman VINO secures this
rooster will not have TO worry about
cooking her turkey next Thanksgiv-
ing, although it can be used many
times before that.
The fourth cake prize is appropriate
"A Universal cake maker. Everyone
knows that cooking utensils bearing the
Universal name are the best obtainable.
The cake maker saves strength and
time. in mixing the ingredients for a
cake.
Tie woman who is lucky enough
to bake the best pie will secure cabi-
net range contributed by the Peoples
Power company. It is certainly going
some to get life size gas range in
exchange for a pie, no matter how
good the pie might be.
The second prize pie will secure for
its baker Universal coffee percolator.
Mrs. Armstrong says that it is neces-
sary to have a percolator in order TO
make perfect coffee. The Universal
percolator is the best that We can Of
fer.
The Republic Hardware company OF
Buffalo has sent us one of their Say
ory'' double boilers for the woman who
enters the third best pie. This double
boiler is constructed of steel gray ena-
melware and is the thing for cooking
rolled oats, rice, tapioca. and dozen
other things. AS the name indicates,
the "Savory" double boiler has the
happy faculty of retaining the flavor
of all articles cooked in it
THEY ARE DIFFERENT.
CottoIene made doughnuts are as
different from ordinary 'sinkers' as
day from night. We expect To see
fine array of doughnuts at the
contest. The recognition of the
best doughnuts will be shown
by means of the Bissel Su-
per6a carpet sweeper. This particu-
lar sweeper is made of mahogany ven
Ger With piano polish. The metal
parts are handsomely nickled. Every
one knows that the Bissell is work
of crt as far as carpet sweepers are
concerned. There is no particular con-
nee ion between doughnuts and carpet
sweepers, but the woman who gets
the Superba will appreciate it just the
same.
An essential subject in all baking is
to sift together flour, baking powder
etc Some cake recipes call for a
number of siftings. Since this is the
case we are giving the woman who
makes the second best doughnuts {.
KiEo Bin -four sitter. This is more
than a sitter. 1t will hold a number
of pounds of -four, and all you have TO
do when you wish to bake a cake is to
turn the crank. We are pleased TO of
fer an article Of this kind as prize
in our contest.
Messrs. Landers, Frary and Clark
are represented in each class. They
are contributing a Universal bread
mixer as a third prize in the doughnut
contest. Comments are unnecessary,
because every woman knows about
this excellent machine.

this contest. Undue modesty might
sta I'd in the way of your winning one
or more first-class rewards. Besides
that, ii would be a nice thing to gain
the reputation of being a superfine
cook-even though your service in
that direction may not be in the open
market
