THE COUNTRY HOUSE

summers on realtives farm has writ

Of The Country Housework Schedule.

Try to allow her cousin, who owns the
farm. 70 take n two-months vacation
While doing this splendid substituting
work, my reader cooks for four men
who work on the farm, cares for the
house single-handed does the washing
and ironing, takes care of the oil lamps,
feeds the chickens, does some canning
and gathers the vegetables daily from
the kitchen garden.
The first consideration, in system
atizing these labors, is TO divide the
whole weeks work so that only fair
share of il is done each day
The meal problem is the heaviest, so
this is the point at which TO begin the
schedule. Make out q week menus in
advance, planning so that on some days
cold cooked foods may be served, with
the exception of one or two hot dishes
such as potatoes and green vegetable.
Cooking ahead saves much time. Cold
meats, salads of cooked vegetables,
nourishing cold desserts, or dishes Of
cooked foods which require only warm
ing up in the oven before serving, are
great time-savers.
! The fireless cooker, or a steam cook.
er, is another time saver. For, with
either of these cookers the dinner may
be prepared and started cooking long
before the time Of its serving-and ther
forgotten until the dinnert hour; thu
