Discoveries.
To cook veal outlets or steaks so
it will be as good as chicken, egg
and crumb it and fry brown in hot
grease Then put it in a baking
pan and add enough hot water to
not quite cover the meat and cook
in the over for an hour. 1t will be
so tender it can be almost cut with
a fork and is as good cold as hot.
Kitchen Walls-The best way to
keep the walls of the kitchen white
and glossy is to wash their painted
surface with bran water instead of
soap. Boil one pint of bran in a
gallon of water for an hour. The
paint will look better and keep
clean longer when washed with this
than when cleaned with soap and
water.
A substitute for maple syrup is
made as follows: Take IL nice
clean corn cobs, boil in two gallons
of water until there is only one
gallon of water left. Drain off the
water and strain, then add to each
pint of water one pound of brown
sugar and boil until it is a syrup.
You cannot tell this syrup from the
true syrup.
One should always keep a dish of
water in a steam-heated room. II
you have round -topped radiators
put a piece of sheet iron 15A by
inches, bent inches from each end
to form table. This spans three
columns of the radiator and is am
ply large to accommodate a good
sized bowl of fresh water daily.
Fold a turkish towel on your
ironing board when ironing en-
broideries. Turn the embroidery
right side down and iron. You will
be delighted with the way the work
stands out.
Take a tall peach basket and
cover with Powered calico Gather
at the top and bottom and tack on
with bright-headed tacks. This
makes a nice waste basket for the
kitchen.
When a Bar of Soap has become
to thin to be used conveniently,
moisten it and place on a new bar,
anG press them firmly together.
After drying two or three days it
will become firm enough to be used
without any waste of time or soap.
