KITCHEN WORK MADE EASIER
improved Utensils Have Done Much to
Lessen Labor in That Part of
the Home.

Evolution is at hast placing its mark
on the household implements. From
the pestle of the granGmOthers was
evolved the wooden rolling pin but
that is going out of use. For some
time the glass rolling pin. which could
be handled, was in favor; but now the
pin is made of heavy crystal glass,
with no seams or crevices to hold
paste, and by actual test one of these
has been cleaned in five seconds. Ii is
very light and so rolls with ease. and
when it is desired TO have II extra
cold, for rolling some kinds of pastry,
II may be placed in the refrigerator.
The bread mixer long in use had its
leverage extended in rotary motion
over the top; but new mixer now on
the market has the power applied at
the side as in an ice cream freezer,
making it much easier to use.
There has just come to notice a com
bined gas range and firelesS cooker. 1t
is Il complete gas range with an in
sulated oven comparable 10 the finest
type OF hreleSS cooker. The food is
placed in the oven. the heat turned ON
until cooking is well under way, then
the gas IS turned off and the food CON
tlnueS TO cook as in a fireleSs cooker.
1t is compact and efficient and avoids
the trouble of moving the cooking
dishes from the stove to the tireless re
ceptacle.

To one egg beaten slightly stir In
three-quarters of Il cupful sugar u lit
tie cinnamon and nutmeg, two tea
spoonfuls of the melted fat you use for
frying, one teaspoonful soda in one
cupful of sweet milk. two teaspoonfuls
cream of tartar in sifted bread -four.
Stir stiff enough to handle. / never
measure my flour. but can tell when 1t
Is right in my hands on the board
Cut out all at once, using little ends
for twisted doughnuts so as not to
mold over.
Let stand on board half an hour to
raise, and fry in hot fat. When my fat
begins to smoke it is hot enough. Turn
doughnuts as soon as they rise, and
keep turning. l find they cook more
even, with fewer holes, than when
turned only once. use also a little
salt, about One-quarter teaspOonful
and l think the three-quarters cupful
of sugar makes them lighter than a full
cup. put mine in colander, and when
about half cold put them into tin pail
and cover tightly. which causes them
to steam little and keep moist longer
