OF course. there is no such thing
as oven frying, but many kinds OF
food can be satisfactorily Drowned in
the dry heat of the oven in such a
way as to take the place of fried food.
For one thing, croquettes can be

The croquettes should be formed
several hours before they are to be

cleaned the trouble returns in o.
day or two. Will appreciate your
answer very much. ANNA S.
Are you sure that the waste pipe
acts properly? II 1t does, there is
no reason why the chest should be
over-damp. unless its walls are inn
perfect and its wood has absorbed
the dampness. The inside should
be washed once or twice a week in
cold weather. every other day in
hot weather. with plenty of borax
or washing soda in warm water.
Then place pieces of charcoal in the
corners to absorb the doors of food.
These should be renewed often.
A small box of unslaclSed lime
placed In the bottom OF the chest
will absorb dampness. Renew about
once a month.
