Here's some welcome news for
housewives. They now have STAN
dards upon which they can judge
their cooking and baking uten-
sils.
The American Home Economics
Association piloted this project to
its successful adoption. It's now
working on standards, and ex-
poets soon that they'll be adopt
ed, on electric flatirons, hot wa
ter heaters and electric ranges.
Soon all articles meeting the
American Standard will carry a
label indicating standard quail
ties.
The standards for dimensions,
tolerances and terminlogy for
home cooking and baking uten-
sis was approved on October n,
1949, by the American Standards
Association, Inc.
The standards apply TO top-oi-
range cooking utensils as Gamers,
double boilers, kettle, saucepan,
tea kettle. Baking utensils as
cookie sheet, rooster, muffin pans
and pie pans also have standard
measurements. Cake pan STAN
dcrds are for oblong ones In five
sizes as well as for round, square
and tube pans.
Standards are also set up for
household measuring cups and
measuring spoons. These stan
dards include definition, strength,
content, capacity, marking and
tolerances.
You can use them to find out
if your present equipment COM
plies with the standards. AS soon
as possible replace all inaccurate
measuring devices with those
that conform to standard. AS you
add new equipment, be sure that
the equipment you buy meets the
standard.
