The “long and short” of our electric power situation is that once more, per­ haps for the last time, home­ makers are called upon to de­ monstrate their ability in “waste­ less” electric cookery. By so doing, you will help to insure the supply of power for indus­ tries and farms. Furthermore you help your ■family by keeping your food and fuel bills under good control. Food cooked too long and at ex­ cessive temperatures will shrink to the extent that you lose serv­ ings and food values. Always turn the switch point at which it kettle boiling. When the oven the desired temperature by the use of top and bottom oven ele­ ments, the food can be more quickly cooked. The food may be removed on schedule if you check the time according to the amount and kind of pans being used in your home. Then, too, make use of the stored heat in the oven by cooking custards, prunes, figs or apples. The method is simply turn the oven to Off, -place a small quantity of food in a shal­ low pan and leave in the oven for one hour. Prepare diced potatoes and cook in a small quantity of water —one inch of water in the sauce­ pan is sufficient. It saves cook­ ing time to start with warm tap water and boiling period is a minimum when a straight-sided saucepan with a tight-fitting cover is used. Prepare carrots, turnips, beets, parsnips in even­ sized slivered pieces and cook only until tender. By all means use a pressure cooker if you have one. Leftovers may be steamed using colander or sieve, over kettle: cover closely to keep steam within the container. Utensils' such as a chicken fryer or a deep frying pan with a cover can be used to cook a large quantity supper dish quick­ ly. To name some of these there are chop suey, stewed beef, meat balls with mushrooms ned peas, sweetbreads vegetable or cheese macaroni and cheese, and spaghetti, fried to the lowest will keep your is preheated to Pour a small amount of boil­ ing water on eggs to be hard- cooked, cover and let stand 15 minutes—.without heat. Abide by the best nutrition rules and serve one raw vege­ table every day. Maintain a con­ stant cold in your electric refrig­ erator by keeping everything covered except foods in natural covering such as citrus fruits and eggs. Store on those pro­ ducts which require cold preser­ vation; pickles, catsup, marma­ lade, etc., do not need to be in refrigerator. Defrost the refrig­ erator* quickly and return to nor­ mal temperature. The best way to take off ice is to turn the dial to defrost or milk, etc; newspaper pan of hot unit; sort lift off ice or something that will not pierce the unit, then take out paper and ice, and return foods rect place, leaving space rectangular dishes.

Spring lamb used to be a seasonal treat but is now a year- round meat. Lamb rib or loin chops and leg of lamb are, of course, well known but the shoulder makes a most desireable roast oi* it jnay be cut into chops. A rolled breast cut will also make a good roast. Ground lamb, made into patties or a meat loaf are among the less expensive lamb dishes. Lamb shanks are also a good fact practically every cut is so tender it may be broiled or pan-broiled. Lamb stews have a place in a menu .well-planned for flavour and variety. Here are several recipes from the home economists of the Con­ sumer .Section, Dominion Depart­ ment of Agriculture.
