How to Make Mounting
for Spider-Web Coils

Spider-web coils are very easily con-
structed and because of their efficiency
they have found favor for amateur re-
ceiving sets. The difficulty In mount
ing these coils has presented q STUN
bling block to beginners and has more
or less retarded their general adop-
ton.
First obtain some fairly thin sheet
brass. cutting 1t to size and shape as
required. For movable or coupling
mounting, two right-angle brass strips
are fastened to the panel as shown.
They can be one-half-inch wide. the
length depending upon the personal
wishes of the builder. Two more strips
Of almost the same size, except for the
fanges which are set as shown to clasp
the coil terminals. are cut and pivoted
to the flrst angles. Use 6-S2-inch ma
chine screws and hexagon nuts for
pivots and for clamping the angles to
the panel. To each coil affix the. small
brass strips cut to the shape indicated.

be cooked, either whole or sliced, in
each gallon of butter. While still hot,
pack in sterilized jars or glasses and
process 20 minutes in hot water bath
or cover with hot paraffin.
Plum Butter.
Wash the plums and cook till soft
with a little water. Rub the pulp
through coarse wire sieve. For each
measure Of pulp use half to three
quarters of measure Of sugar and
cook slowly, with frequent stirring. un-
til the butter is as thick as desired. II
tart butter is favored, less sugar
should be used. If the plums are very
juicy the pulp put through the colander
may need to be boiled down and thick
ened before the sugar Is measured or
added. Cinnamon, allspice and cloves
should be added to suit the taste, when
the cooking is finished. Plum butter
should be packed while hot In the same
way as other buffers or preserves.

METHOD OF CLARIFYING FAT
Melt With at Least an Equal voIums
Of Water and Heat for
Short Time.

An old-fashioned method Of clarity.
ing fat from the soup kettle or from
cooked meats such as bacon, ham,
chicken. beef, sausage, and other
sources, is recommended by the Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture.
Melt the fat with at least an equal
volume Of water and heat for short
time at moderate temperature, STIR
ing the mixture occasionally. When
cold, remove the cake Of fat and
scrape of any small particles Of meat
and skin that adhere.
Some fats are better favored than
others for use in pastry or cake max
ing. but all cleanly rendered fats may
be used In frying. If the flavor or
color or both are not satisfactory at
the first rendering. the process may be
repeated several times. Another meth
cd, often recommended, is to cook a
number of slices of raw potato in the
boiling fat. The addition Of small
uncut onion, few leaves Of summer
savory and thyme, salt and pepper.
when rendering meat drippings. makes
a savory fat useful for gravies. Sau-
sage fat is excellent for frying meats
which have less flavor Of their own, as
veal outlet or rabbit.
Fat in small quantities may be cas-
lily kept sweet in the Ice box for cook
ing purposes. If lard is rendered at
home in large quantities to last a
long time it should be kept covered
