tive necessity when preparing ice
cream.

1 using a 10 or 1.-qlart bucket for the
outer vessel. and a one gallon pail Ia
gallon molasses bucket is just the
thing) with d tight fitting lid.
Place about one inch of crushed or
cracked rock salt at bottom. place pail
containing cream in the bucket, pack
alternately ice and salt around same.
then turn: 1t is necessary to scrape
the frozen cream from sides OF the
pail frequently until cream il done.

Warm your clothespins thoroughly
before hanging out the clothes. Also
dip a cloth in salt water and wipe the

to it.
A clothes basket is very ant to dis
color wet clothes. My scheme is to
get some white Oilcloth and cut an
oval piece the shape OF the basket and
lay in the bottom: also cut a piece on
h bias and line the inside. It Is a
protection to h clothes.
