A MONG the small conveniences that
~ should be found in every kitchen
are asbestos mats. toast racks, toast
ers. broilers, wire egg whip. double

of the ordinary utensils, tea towels and
hand towels.
Peep in your kitchen a small chop
ping bowl. chopping knife, kitchen
knife, spoon and fork, which should be
reserved exclusively for the prepare
ton OF onions used for seasoning. Even
after washing, the odor of raw onions
will cling to knife or chopping bowl
SO strongly as to affect other food pre-
pared with these utensils.
A fireless cooker and a steam cooker
save labor and time and preserve the
natural flavor of foods.
A covered rooster saves worrisome
basting and meat SO cooked has a
better flavor.
Bv the use of a bread mixer the la Dor
of bread ma king is reduced to min
imum. and if directions are followed in
using the mixer you viii have fine
