FEEDING PROBLEM?
SCOTCH TAPE

(1fUHt INfos e. H., w uoitLbytObs/
I need help on the feeding prob
lem. My 32-month-old son will no
eat by himself since his two cousin
(boys) came to visit us about ST
months ago. The cousins, abou
4 and 51a years old, were fed b,
their mother, who said they wer'
still children and needed to be fed.
My 18-month-old son is the SAM
way now after watching his brother
I have tried separating them a
feeding time, one in the kitche1
and the other in the dining room
but they wait until I feed them
They eat their fruit by themselves
so I know they are able to feet
themselves If they want to.
The doctor seems to think the!
will outgrow this but I don't wan
to be feeding them until they art
five.
I have tried skipping meals but
do not want to make them sick, tht
oldest one being "sickly."
Here is a hint I hope will helr
some one. I never could use up al
the scotch tape" that was bough'
for 10 cents or Is cents, as it Away
stuck together. I put the roll ir
the refrigerator and, now I can U.s.
it all.

TURKEY COOKING?
(From Mrs. /. P. F., Washington,
would like to hear opinions ex-
pressed pro and con on the uncov.
cred pan method of cooking a tur-
key. I have always used this newer
and highly recommended methoc
in my de luxe electric stove, and ]
am proud to say that I have the
reputation of being a very gooc
cook. My turkeys have always beer
good, and of good appearance, ano
my method of cooking has been the
one advocated by the manufacturer
of my stove and by our electric
power company. Don't misunder:
stand me-my birds have always
been good. I've had practically nc
grounds for any adverse comment
on this open-pan roasting method
until this Christmas day.
We had dinner with my parents
my mother prepared and roasted
the turkey herself, in a covered
roasting pan, in the same kind OF
stove as mine. There Is no doubt
about 1t, her turkey was consider.
ably more moist than any turkey
I've ever cooked according to the
open-pan method. And If there il
anything I dislike it's a dried-out
turkey. While mine, through te.
dious basting, have been consider
ably moist, they have never had the
sweet, moist, actually almost we,
appearance of the meat that moth.
er's covered-pan method produced.
I'd like to hear other readers
views on turkey roasting.
