cleaning, and for this work it is
less efficient than fulI-sizo

however, TO clean rugs, carpets and

cooker than by the ordinary method
of boiling"
Times are shortened as tempera-
lures are raised, which may help
to explain this.
1t is important to note that the
Investigations showedsthat although
the pressure cooker can be used for
short time processes it is more ef-
ficient for the longer processes,
where the saving of time and fuel
is significant. 1t is especially good
for canning vegetables and meats,
for the long cooking of cereals,
fruitcake, baked beans, tougher
cuts Of meat, whole hams, tongues,
pot roasts and soups.
Selection Of Foods
The most advantageous way Of
using the pressure cooker is to cook
two or three things at once. This
means the selection of foods whica
can be cooked with approximately
the same time and pressure. A
food requiring long cooking can be
put in first, and when partly done
the pressure can be run down, the
cooker opened and the other, foods
requiring shorter time put in.
This method, however, is trouble
some, and in general it is better to
choose combinations which do not
make it necessary.
The foods cooked together neec
not form a complete meal. Cook
the breakfast cereal, a meat loaf
or baked beans for the next day
with your meat.
A Fuel Saver
In the experiments it was found
that on long cooking processes the
pressure cooker was decidedly a
fuel saver. It consumed much less
gas than the fireless cooker. The
most marked difference in fuel con-
sumption, however, is observed
when pressure cooked foods are
compared with those baked in the
oven. In one comparative test, in
which ham, escalloped potatoes ana
onions were cooked in the pressure
cooker, the cost Computed on the
basis Of $1.25 per 1000 cubic feet)
was a little less than 2 cents. Fof
the same foods cooked with the gas
stove the cost was little more
chan 5 cents.
For oatmeal the pressure cooker
cost was $0.0O5; for the same
amount in the fireless cooker,
$0.013. and for the gas stove.
$0.006. Are you surprised at the
cost Of heating the fireless stones?
Convenience and the overnight
factor must be considered here.
however-tEere are some women
who would prefer to pay the small
difference in price to have the use
Of fireless for overnight process.
For baked beans the fireless ana
pressure costs were the same
$0.02--and the gas cost, when they
were baked in the oven, three times
as much.
