pears the following:
my mother has a very clever scheme
for saving gas and yet giving us our
fayorite baked potatoes. She places a
tin cover over one of the burners on top
of the range. Over this she puts an
asbestos plate, and then places the pota-
toes ON this plate. Potatoes and plate
are covered with an old pan and heated
with a not too hot fame. The potatoes
are turned several times to prevent
burning and secure equal baking"
