body requires less heat-producing food

quently there is even less need for as
much food to supply muscular energy
as in the colder season.
1t is well to remember that thor
oughly ripened and sound fruit should
always be selected II possible. The
largest fruit of its kind is usually the
cheapest, as there is less waste in par
ings. seeds and cores. Moreover. the
larger fruit is more perfectly ma
tured, therefore more wholesome and
OF finer flavor.
The vegetables should be used as
soon as possible after gathering. which
should he done before the heat of the
day The majority Of vegetables
should be put in boiling water and
brought to the boiling point as soon as

The Best Place for Your Food.

Acting on the principle that cold air
| falls, all foods which need the lowest
| degree of temperature for preserva-
tion should be placed in the bottom
portion of the refrigerator. Butter
| should be kept in covered receptacle
| of a material which does not absorb
| odors If it is necessary to put foods
| having strong odors in the refrigerator
place them on the top shelves. Store
! such food in covered receptacles-glass
! jars preferably-or in suitable dishes
| covered with paraffin paper. Storage
dishes of enamel ware having straight
sides are economical of space. AS the
! air passes over the ice it absorbs the
odors. The vapors and the odors are
| carried off in the water through the
drain pipe. For the same reason all
foods which are absorbent of odors
should be placed on the bottom,
where the air is purest.
Do not make the mistake of practic-
| ing false economy in the use of ice. A
refrigerator cannot be kept at the nee
| essarily low temperature without ice
| expenditure. Keep the ice chamber
well filled. The consumption of ice is
! thus reduced and more rapid circu1a
| tion is maintained. Do not cover ice
with anything. 1t is false economy.
The properly constructed refrigerator
should have double walls with several

Care of Refrigerator.

Like all tools and equipment, one
cannot expect good results without in
telligent care. Always have the ice
thoroughly cleaned before it is put
into the Joe chamber. Keep the ice and
food chambers scrupulously clean.
Wash them out thoroughly once a week
with hot soapsuds. rinse in a washing
soda solution. and finally in hot water.
Use wooden skeWer to remove all dirt
from corners. Dry the food chamber
thoroughly; air and sun the racks. If
possible, or by some means have them
entirely free from moisture before they
are returned to the refrigerator. If the
least bit of food is spilled. clean it up
at once. Do not leave 1t over night or
even for a few hours. This will pre-
vent the growth of bacteria, which
thrive best in moisture.
Clean the entire drain pipe with
brush and washing soda solution. and
scald with boiling water Clean the
trap at the outer end of the drain pipe,
and the refrigerator pan. Be careful
to see that the trap at the bottom of
the pipe is 80 arranged as to prevent
any possibility of odors entering the
refrigerator through the drain pipe and
of the cold air escaping from the re-
frigerator.
