THE HOUSEHOLD
Save Cooking Heat.
Edited By ANNE RIrTENHoCsE

Did It ever occur to you that in
your kitchen probably twice as much
heat is used up as can possibly be
needed to cook the food your family
consumes
Now. that was all very well and
good years ago when coal and wood
were cheap and abundant and waen
stoves and ranges were not built On
the accurate scientific basis that they
are nowadays. But today IL Is all
wrong. and It is every housewives duty
to see to It that some sort OF heat reg
ulation is made IN her Kitchen 50 that
some Of the unnecessary cooking heat
IS saved
A cooking Thermometer Is one Of
the best things to get as an initial
step. II does not cost much to have
a thermometer installed in your oven
door and tins will not only save fuel
and heat, but will make success IN
baking cakes and buildings a practical
certainty An experienced natural
born cook may not need the aid or a
Thermometer She may be able to tell
| Just by sticking her hand into an oven
whether II is hot enough to bake the
cake she has Just made But even II
she can make sure Of success with her
baking her way IS one that wastes fuel
/ Rememher in cooking vegetables
| that IL the water Is boiling hot the
vegetables are cooking as fast as they
! can To have II boil any more furi-
I 0lsIy merely makes the vegetables fall
tc pieces II does not hasten the ac-
tunl cooking operation in the least
I One way of telling whether your
even Is wasting heat and therefor-
consuming unnecessary fuel is to see
whether Il gives off an undue amount
of heat II your kitchen becomes ex-
/ treueIy hot Whenever the oven L
heated then your stove really leaks
Eeat OF course a certain degree OF
heat leakage Is impossible to avoid
7 But thru the assistance Of the stove
/ man you can have some Of this fuel
waste eliminated The fireless cooker
is as nearly free from heat Ieakags
/ as anything could be A stew may be
cooking Itself tender within the cook
| er while not a degrees Of heat can Be
felt outside the frame Of the cooker
For this reason the Greless method 81
cooking Is an ideal war method. fol
IL makes possible the greatest amount
Of cooking with the least expenditure
OF fuel
i By carefully planning to cook sew
eraI things over the sane heat at IN,
same time you can effect considerable.
economy Of fuel even with an ordinary
cooking apparatus. For instance. on :
gas stove you can plan TO have sew
eraI baked dishes the same night
roasted meat baked potatoes ans
scaIIoped tomatoes II you steam on
dish for dinner plan some othe
steamed dishes, thus allowing them al
