NEW YORK, Oct. 27 R specula-

group, brought further recessions in
the stock market today, some of the
leading issues declining to new low

unsatisfactory conditions in the steel

Our engineers make oven heating

MEASURE YOUR

Half of the secret of good cook.
ing lies in accurate measurement.
Good Housekeeping Institute rec.
ommends a standard measuring set.
First in its list of measuring uten-
sils are two standard measuring
cups holding one-helf pint each and
divided into quarters and thirds.
These may be made Of either alum
mum or glassware. The tin cup
is too short-lived.
A set of accurate measuring
spoons is essential. These are
made of aluminium and can be
found in capacities graduated from

forth, as we'll as careful seasoning.
Small Spatuia Important
A small spatula for the leveling
of all solid measurements is in.
dispensable. An aluminium quart
measure and a small compact
spring scale may also be added
to the measuring equipment. Use
the scale more for checking the
weights as purchased than for
cooking by weight. A spring scale.
while illegal in certain states be-
cause it can be easily tempered
with, is NEVERTHELESS practical and
accurate for household usage.
In all measuring see that the
ingredients are level. A cupful is
measured level: a tablespoonful is
measured level; a teaspoonful is
measured level. In measuring dry
ingredients by cupfuls fill the cup
by tablespoonfuls, allow it to heap
slightly, then level with a quick
stroke Of the spatula. When frac.
tions of a cupful are to be meas.
ured, measure by tablespoonfuls
in preference to the use of the
cup up to one-half cup capacity,
remembering that sixteen table
spoonfuls are equal to one cupfuI.
And do not shake the cup while
filling.

hold when a fire Of dry wood was
kept burning for some hours until
all the bricks were thoroughly
heated. The glowing Goals and the
ashes were then swept below to
make way for the weekly baking.
There are farm houses in which
these brick ovens were still in use
as late as 80 years ago, and the old
outdoor clay ovens can even vet be
seen in certain remote country dis
tricts.
When the fireplace resigned Ill
favor Of the cook stove, the oven
became a highly priced and an in
dispensable partner of the stove.
The baking of bread was for many
years one of its major services. but
one which has. of course, dwindled
in more recent years with the
growth of commercial bakeries.
Changes in Fuel
During the last few years the
oven has been improved in ways
that have brought undreamed- of

coal are no longer generally de-
pended upon as fuels. Kerosene,

HosO Much We Learned
About the Feeding Of Babies

When / hear the young mothers Of
today discussing carrots and spinach
and orange juice and cereal, / wonder
how any of US of an older generation
ever managed to live through our first
two or three years, without the elah-
crate feeding programs which exist
today.
But much as these wise young moth.
ers know that is new in the feeding oi
babies, there is one basic fact that
doesn't change. For the baby Just
starting out in life, Nature has provided
the perfect food in mothers milk. The
breast-fed baby has a better chance
from the start than the artifcialIy-fed
baby. and avoids the experiments that
are necessary and the set-backs that 81
often occur in finding the best substi
tute for mothers milk.
