A Big Hurry.
GOOD FIRE VITAL

II there is ever a time when a
man needs and deserves good, we'll
cooked food, it's when he is in a
vacation camp. Why? oh, well, for
several reasons. One is that he
comes pretty near earning every
meal he gets. Another is that one
purpose of a camping trip is to re-
fresh and restore us and send us
back to our work with renewed
strength and courage. And a third
and not least-is that it's con-
trary to all ideas of the fitness of
things 10 waste a glorious camp
appetite on poor grub!
Yet how often in camp does every
prospect please and only man is vile
which is to say the cook? Bad
cooking in camp has spoiled many
a vacation and turned back many
a tenderfOot from the outdoor life.
On the other hand, let the cook
know his business and the camp be
well fed-and tents may leak and
nsh refuse to bite and even the
mosquitoes swarm without affect
ing the general jOllity.
No. there's no argument possible
bad cooking is a crime in camp.
And it's dOubly a crime because it's
entirely unnecessary. Any man who
mas ambition enough to go into
camp and gumption enough to get
under canvas when il rains has the
wherewithal to master the frs,
principles Of camp cooking and
avoid the mistakes Of the amateur
camper. Camp cooking requires no
heaven-bOrn genius or sleight of
hand: all that is necessary is a fair
amount Of brains and pains.

timely outdoor way rather than
taking city life into the woods. In
these circumstances here is the
proper way to arrange for the cook
ing FIRE:
Good Place II Necessary.
Pick out the right place for the
fire. II should be level and have a
good draft and be conveniently
located with respect to the tents and
dining table and camp IRE. The
general idea is to COOK on Goals be-
tween two parallel logs or rows OF
| stones. You can dig a narrow
trench or not; suit yourself. II you
use logs they should be green and
six or eight feet long and eight or
ten inches through. The top and
side near the fire should be
smoothed of. 1t is an easy matter
to spread these logs apart or push
them together according to the size
of the bottom Of your kettle, frying
pan or coffee pot. II you use stones
or fiat rocks instead of logs you
will ind 1t easy to produce the
same effect.
To get Goals for this cooking FIRE
you can either burn down wood OF
take them from the camp FIRE. For
small Jobs of cooking a fre of twigs
or bark will be found sufficient. You
will learn that this fre makes little
smoke and that you can get close
enough to IT to do careful cooking
The wind should be lengthwise OF

have two nreplaces at right angles
One school of camp cooks does all
its cooking over such a fireplace, the
other runs to suspended pals and
kettles. A combination of the two
is easy and satisfactory. Over the
fireplace suspend a stout green pole
from forked stakes driven at the
ends of your logs. Then cut some
limb crotches with one long arm
and drive nails in the long arm. OF
cut notches.-to hold the balls of the
pals and kettles. BY varying these
hooks you can regulate the distance

ADVISES
CLEAN RADIATOR

The average motorist has the
idea that the radiator OF an auto
mobile needs very little attention;
this is usually true. provided IL is
kept free from foreign matter and
filled with clean soft water" says
an automobile expert
in the spring IL is always advis-
able to flush the radiator thoroughly
TO remove any accumulation OF sedi-
ment which might have become
lodged in the cellular sections.
There are always two ways OF
cleaning the cooling system after
draining OF the water through the
pet-cock. One method is to use a
saturated solution of common sal
soda in fresh water and let IL circu-
late through the entire system;
then after this operation the radia-
tor should be rinsed thoroughly
with clean water before rehlling.
II sal-soda is not available. another
means of cleaning is by the use Of
an ordinary garden hose. Put the
nozzle down the radiator filler and
let the water circulate through the
cooling system for about Is min
utes TO secure the best results.
These hints about radiator clean

doubt. insure perfect radiation"

small fire and a hot fire and a IRE
without smoke and a IRE that you
can get at. And there are several
kinds of cooking fires.
For instance. suppose you are on
the move and you stop for lunch.
Obviously you want a quick fire and
a quick meal. The quickest meal
you can get Is to make tea or cof-
fee and fry fish or bacon. Here's
the way to go to work at 1t:
How to Build Fire.
Cut a short pole with a crotch in
the end and drive it into the ground.
Cut another longer pole and lean it
in the crotch. fastening the ground
end. Notch the upper end OF the
slanting pole so that the bail of
your pail will catch in it, and have
the bottom of the pail about two
feet from the ground.
Gather an armful Of sound. dry
wood. about as thick through as
your finger. Take three pieces and
shave each with your knife, letting
the shavings stay on the stick. Set
these sticks in the form Of a tripod
with the shavings pointing down
ward. Around this tripod build a
wigwam of sticks standing on end.
leaving plente Of air spaces. Touch
it off with a match and it will burn
fiercely.
Such a fire ought to bring your
water to a boil in a hurry. and by
that time your fire will have burned
down to Goals. Set a small green
log or a fat rock on each side of
the Goals and go to work with your
frying pan. You will thus be able
to get a meal in something like
twenty minutes. This program. with
variations to suit circumstances. is
the proper thing in a camp where
you stay but one night.
In a more permanent camp. of
course. the program is different
And the arrangements naturally
vary with the camp and the party.

rush will take ont the line and not
break top or leader. Be in no hurry
to land the FISH. Play him complete
ly out.
Landing Is Difficult.
Landing a trout in fast running
water is a difficult matter. The best
plan is not to attempt to play, the
FISH up to you. but to hold him, as
far as can safely be ventured, where
he is hooked. and work down to him.

and eventually. nine times out of

down to the FISH, so that you do not
have to handle him from above, but
from the side lead him gradually
into a gentle side current The FISH
should be upstream from you when
you are ready to use the net The
current will then bring him over the
net. instead of taking him away
from It,"
