There Is just one way to make
your cakes rise high and keep an
even surface. Have your oven
moderate at first, until the cake is
fully rizen; then increase the heat,
so as to brown it over quickly.
Extreme heat stiffens the dough.
If you stiffen the outside of the
cake before the rising Is complete,
you stop the rising process. Then
the leavening gas, forming inside,
will bulge up the center, where
the dough is still soft, and spoil
the shape of the cake. al
NoTE-Biscuits or other pastries
made from stiff dough, that are cut into
shapes for the oven, bake in n hot oven.
This IL because the cut surfaces Of the
dough do not Gear over. but rather
leave the pores open, allowing the
~leaveniug gas 10 escape and the heat TO
penetrate readily. Small ovens cool
quickly; therefore they should he made
several degrees hotter than a larger
oven, and the less the door Is opened
the better. DO not attempt TO bake
bread and pastry together. Bread re-
quires prolonged, moderate baking
pastry the reverse.
Have a strong underheat for baking
powder preparations, especially pastry.
These are only a few OF the many
baking helps found In the X c Cooks

CLAIM SUPERVISION
BY COUNTIES IS
NOT GOOD
Road Work Under Direction
of Single Superintendent
Frowned Upon.

That Grand Forks county will mo-
have Il highway superintendent this
year has been decided upon by the
county commissioners. This decision
was reached after an investigation
of the matter. in which reports from,
the five counties in the state that
tried the system last year, played a
big part.
Under the session laws Of 1911 the
county commissioners of each county
are authorized to appoint. annually,
a man who will personally inspect
the various roads. and under whose
supervision all work such AS repairs,
bridge building. new roads and i'm
proNements of various kinds, must be
done.
The commissioners were given the
option of appointing the highway
superintendent or not, as they wished
or thought advisable. The matter
was talked over by the commission
pointment OF the county surveyor to
the position was considered.
h matter was dropped for the
time being and 1t was left to other
counties to experiment with the new
law. Five counties tried the system
and according to one of the county
commissioners. the other counties in
the state proited by the example.
In n Of the counties. it was claim
ed that an appropriation set aside
for the maintenance of roads. was
practically all expended in the SUI
p~crintendent's salary and in mileage.
In other counties il was found that
no change in conditions was made
and but little benefit resulted.
or The counties that tried the ex-
pertinent three are opposed to the
appointment Of a superintendent this
year. and the other two have not as
vet decided upon the question.
