Cooks uf the Institute

TN the race for popularity, pie,
 the great American dessert, is A always first under the wire. But a close second in the race is ice cream, or any member of the ice cream family-sherbets, both fruit and cream, and ices. There are fruity ice creams which can be made in a very short time and the making need not be a distasteful task. If the freezer is placed in a dish pan or a tray while freezing, this will take care of tie drip which will always be present to certain degree when using crank freezer.
 Select a freezer to fit the needs of your family. The one-quart size will serve six, while the two quart will make twelve regular servings. Either of these sizes is convenient to use. Larger sizes become more bulky to handle and, of course, necessitate the crushing of a larger quantity of ice and longer freezing. So make the two quart size do if you can.
 Now for the fillingl
 To make enough cream for two-quart freezer, mix together one and one-half cupfuls of fruit and juice, one-half to one cupful of sugar, one tall can of evapor- ated milk (the one-pound size) and one-half pint jar of cream. The fruit may be fresh or canned and the amount of sugar to be used will depend upon which is selected.
 For this recipe select any fruit Tn season, as strawberries, rasp- berries, peaches, oranges, bananas, etc. When the fresh fruit is used crush the fruit and add the sugar to it. The exact amount of sugar will depend upon the tartness of the fruit. One cupful will prob ably always be required for fresh fruit, and perhaps more. Canned fruits may be used, and as these can be kept on the emergency shelf they will often be more con- venient than the fresh.
 Drain the fruit, crush it if the fruit is large, like peaches or april

Vacation Garb for the Home

en You Go 4 -'ay for the Summer.
 Put under cover all bric-a-brac, candelabra, etc. Lighting fixtures should be covered, and newspaper is very good for this. Fly specks on these fixtures are practically impossible to remove. Prevention in this case is better than cure. Remove all table runners, doilies and bureau scarfs and launder them, if they can be laundered, before putting them away.
 In the bedroom, strip the beds of all covering and cover the mat tresses and pillows with clean sheets. In damp climates, especi- ally where the bedrooms are on the first floor, as in the semi-bun- galow type of house, it is wise to put several layers of paper be- tween the mattress and spring, if it is not of the box type. This will protect the mattress should dampness cause the spring to rust.

Heat together one-fourth cupful of shortening and three-fourths cupful of honey until the shorten ing is melted. Then add one-half teaspoonful of mixed spices, using cinnamon, cloves and nutmegs. Allow the mixture to cool, then add one egg we'll beaten, one cup full of chopped raisins and two cupfuls of pastry flour, into which one teaspoonful of soda and one half teaspoonful of salt has been sifted. Add more flour if it is needed to make dough stiff enough to roll out. Roll, cut in squares and bake in a moderate oven.
 Banana cream may be made by softening two tablespoonfuls of granulated gelatine in one-fourth cupfuI of cold water. Then dis solve it in one and one-half cup fuls of hot milk.

TT is believed that cherries orig \ mated in Persia. California % and Oregon send us a good pro- portion of our cherry supply. In this country they are most popular raw. Nothing is more attractive as table centerpiece than deep dish of cherries of varying hues of red.
 In the forest regions of France wild cherries are an important item of the food supply. Cherry soup is one of the favorite recipes of that country. While the season is on one should take advantage of the number of uses to which cherries lend themselves. The fol- lowing recipes have been tried and tested at Good Housekeeping In- stitute and we are certain they will meet with your approval.
 Cherry Soup.
 Carefully wash and stem one quart of sour cherries, reserving one-half cupful for garnishing. Place the remaining cherries in a saucepan and add six cupfuls of water. Simmer gently until the cherries are tender, replenishing the water if necessary. Press through fine strainer; there should be three cupfuls of strained fruit juice.
 Reheat the juice to the boiling

Old Time Honey Recipes
Tested Daines Sweetenng Grandmother Us

A T one time, not so long ago, "A honey was a standby and '@ A sugar was a luxury, and even farther back, sugar vanished and only honey remained. But the blackened combs of grandmother's time, mixed with bitter bee bread and obtained by smoking out the faithful swarm, were no rivals to ths enticing frames or tidy little boxes produced by modern bee keeping methods. For beauty and perfection of flavor, nothing can rival honey in it's original, hexa- gonal wax package, but for con- venierce and general availability we must look to extracted or strained honey, and it is far cheaper.
 Honey is much more easily di- ge.ted than sugar and much more quickly assimilated. It has the pee lliarity of retaining moisture, keep!ng bread and cake, for in stahsc, fresh and soft for a long time. It is delicious on dry cereals os al. kinds, and in combination with fresh fruits and nuts there IS no swee. ike honey.

NE method of conserving space in kitchenettes and in kitchens of small apartments is to have a two or three-burner gas stove without an installed oven. Such an arrangement will save space, but there will be a strong tendency toward serving an excessive proportion of fried food. Portable ovens have been manu- factured to meet such conditions. They may be used over gas burn CTS or on oil stoves, and every cooking operation ordinarily done in an installed oven may be per formed in a portable one.
 Even when the kitchen gas range is we'll equipped with good installed oven, there is still place for the portable oven. Being lighter in construction, it heats up more quickly than an installed oven, and when small quantities of baking must be done the saving. in gas consumption by the use of portable oven is material one.
 For general use the two-burner portable oven gives the most satis- factory results. When a portable oven is to be used as an accessory oven for the baking of small roasts, chickens, potatoes, a single Din of 1i ~1, burner oven meets the need very we'll and has the advantage of talk ing little space when not in use.
 Criticism has been made that not as good results are obtainable in portable oven as in an installed oven. Because the portable oven is necessarily light in construction, there is always tendency-great- CT in some ovens than in others to burn the food on the bottom. Within its limits as suggested above, however, it is possible in portable oven to approximate very closely installed oven baking.
 Whether the portable oven is to be used over gas or oil burners, the first requisite toward obtaining the best results is the purchase of an oven thermometer. For sev- eral years Good Housekeeping In- stitute has been experimenting with cooking by temperature; that is, the regulation of the oven by the insertion of a portable ther- mometer in it. Our results prove conclusively that, regardless of the type of oven in use or the fuel used for heating it, best uniform baking is obtainable only by the use of an oven thermometer. Espe- cially is this true of the portable oven, because in 1t the heat is more difficult to regulate.
 Place the thermometer on the

 Vegetables for young children should be finely minced or made into puree and delicately sec soned, with real butter added, even if butter substitutes are used by the grown-up members of the family. Thick cream may be used occasionally, instead of butter, on string beans, carrots, etc.

able difference in the baking re- suits.
 In order to get the best heat distribution in a portable oven it is advisable to heat the oven up slowly. This gives the heat a chance to circulate more evenly throughout the oven, and the re- suits are bound to be more uni form.
 Keeping in mind the tendency bottom of the oven, it is possible to decide where in the oven it is best to bake certain types of foods. All batter and dough mixtures brown most evenly when baked on the top shelf of a portable oven. So when baking bread, biscuits, mullins, cakes, cookies and pie, al- ways plan to do so on the upper shelf placed in the topmost grooves.

 Cover the furniture with slip covers. The overstuffed and velour furniture should first be sprayed with a commercial moth killer that is not injurious to fabric or wood. Wicker furniture, too, should be covered, for this type of furniture is most difficult to clean once it becomes dutsy. Old sheets may be used as covers by tying them with twine or tape around the arms or legs. If, however, the house is closed each Summer, it would be wise to make some inexpensive slip-covers to protect the wicker pieces.

If roasting is being done in the bottom, thus necessitating a hot oven, sufficient heat will be maintained in the upper half of the oven to do some slow baking, such as custards. More often, however, this upper half of the oven would not get sufficiently hot to do any real baking, but proves an excellent place for relocating of foods already cooked, as rolls, vegetables, pies, etc.

Economizing with Portable Ovens

When using a two-burner oven always use both burn CTS for heating the oven to the required temperature; then, if a slow oven is de- sired, one burner is usually all that is needed to keep the temperature desired. Sometimes the oven can be turned around so that it will rest over one burner only. The possibility of this depends upon the style of range in use. If it is possible, a burner is thus freed for the top stove cooking.
 There is one portable oven available which is pro- vided with a fue plate hav- ing two possible positions in the oven. If placed at the top of the oven, the whole oven is available for use at the same temperature. If placed in the middle, a small oven is thus made. This makes it possible to do a small baking without heat ing the whole oven. A slight saving of fuel should not be made at the sacrifice of perfect baking. The asbes- tos sheet will help in this situation.
