SAVING MUCH LABOR
SEQUENCE OF WORK HELPS IN
GETTING MEALS.
Unless Thoughtful Arrangements An
Made, Cook May Find She Has to
Do Two Thlnss at the
Same Time.

Going into the kitchen to make one
dish, or getting supper for which much
of the food has been previously pre-
pared, gives no idea of one OF the chief
difficulties in getting meals-the Sc
quence Of work. Unless the thought
full and orderly arrangements are
made the cook may find she 10 re-
quired to perform two pieces Of work
at once, and the last moments before
the meal will be crowded with more
things than can possibly be done. ac-
c riding to contributor to the De-
lineator.
The time required to cook different
articles Of food often furnishes sort
Of schedule for getting the meal. Time
must be allowed for preparation be-
fore cooking and for finishing touches
after cooking.
Except when gas range is used, tho
fire Is the first thing to attend to. The
other things to be arranged for nat
urally fall into three groups, to the
first OF which belong the things which
take long time to cook. Baked and
boiled meats, oatmeal, certain pud-
dings and vegetables which are cooked
slowly are among those which may be
prepared and put on the hre as soon
as it Is ready for them.
Between this and the second group
is an interval which may be used for
preparing the dishes Of the second
group and for setting the table. ar
ranging salad. putting dishes to warm,
etc.
The second group contains vege-
tables and desserts, which cook in
from 30 to As minutes, or anything
which is needed in the concluding
preparations of the other foods.
Now comes another interval, in
which cold food, such as bread. butter
and milk, may be put on the table.
Preparations must also be made for
the cooking necessary to the third
group, and collecting on the kitchen
table seasonings, butter and milk for
the cooked vegetables and meat
The third group contains things
which must be done in very brief
time before the meal. These are broil-
ing meat, preparing cooked vegetables
| for the table, making sauces and
gravy. putting beaten egg or vermi-
celll in soup and getting everything
arranged in dishes.
Then there are three last things for
the housewife to do before the meal:
To see that the fire Is in condition to
leave; that soiled pots and pans are
filled with water, and last Of all to
take an instant to wash her hands,
remove her apron and make herself
presentable.
