A home- maker with many years of cooking ex- perience behind her could probably answer that question, but it might puz- zle a bride. No matter how hot it is, some people insist on having hot food, never think- ing of course, about the person who has to slave in the kitchen. The time has yet to 'come when cooking may be done with light-rays and eliminate heat entirely on the hottest days, but there are .a number of things that help re- duce cooking discomforts in hot weath- er. For instance, the number of burners used may be reduced to a minimum when a, gas, electric or oil stove is used. In the case of a wood or coal stove, it is a little more complicated, but the menus can be so planned that the cooking for the whole day is done in the early part of the day, when it is still reasonably cool. The double- boiler play be used to cook several foods at one time, The bottom part can cook Vegetables while a dessert or a sauce. is being cooked in the top part. If the oven has to be heated for one dish, it is a good idea to make it -do at least double duty, The home economists of the Con- sumer Section of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture suggest to following recipes, . .

CARE OF AUTOMATIC REFRIGERATOR 1, Check the door gasket (rubber) by inserting a slip of paper in the open ed door. Close the door—if you can pull out easily, the gasket needs re- placing. Keep the gasket clean, Oil and grease—even finger perspiration— damages it. Washing it frequently with mild, soap and water will prolong its life. 2. Keep the door shut as much as possible—never let it stand open. Plan "take-outs" and "put-aways" so that you won't have to open the door any more than necessary. 3. Allow foods to cool before plac- ing them in the refrigerator. Never put in hot foods—your refrigerator has to work harder to absorb that heat. 4, Always cover, all cooked foods before ,you put them in nthe refriger- ator. This helps keep the refriger- ator from needing defrosting frequen- tly and saves the mechanism from overworking. (It saves vitamins, too.) 5. Defrost when the ice on the free- zing unit gets 114 "inch thick. Heavy frost reduces the circulation of cold • air. 6. Keep temperature control set at normal except when quick freezing (e.g. making ice cream). As soon as possible after quick freeinzg, set back the control to normal. 7. ,Don't overload the refrigerator. Leave room around foods to let the cold air circulate. Overloading, espec- ially in hot weather, is a frequent cause of breakdowns. 8. Air-circulation around the refrig- erator is important. Keep the refrig- erator two inches from the wall and allow a clear space above it. Don't pile on top things that cut off the free circulation of air. 9. Never use an ice pick or knife Point to remove ice trays or chip frost from the freezing coils. You may ser- iously damage the unit. To prevent ice trays from sticking don't fill 41aern full; wipe off edges and bottoms of trays. 10. Twice a year disconnect your re- frigerator and clean the condenser with a long-handled brush or your vacuum ;cleaner brush attachment. See your manufacturer's directions to locate'-the condenser,. • *--• Anne Allan invites you to write to her clo The Wingham Advance-Times.

Mulching 'material helps the soil to retain moisture-by preventing rapid evaporation, and this in turn„ The use of mulching material be- tween 'rows of vegetables is illhstrated in the accompanying Garden-Graph, Mulcting' material can consist of straw, hay, dried lawn clippings or similar material, Shallow rooted plants such as ,rasp- berries should be mulched to protect their roots from the danger of being scorched during the hot slimmer mon- ths, Strawberry fruits will be found to be touch cleaner than normally if mulching material is placed around the 1 1 I keeps the roots of plants from drying out. For this reason, mulching mat- , erial should be applied after a good rain fall, and not during a dry spell. Mulching also makes life -easier for gardeners by keeping down weeds and thus saving hours of work with hoe or cultivator. plants. Straw is especially good for tnulehing strawberries. A heavy mulch of straw around strawberry plants and between the rows will do away with the need for cultivating to keep down the weeds, a job always complicated by the spreading habits of strawberry runners,. When mulching fruit trees keep the mulching material from four toy six inches away from the trunk, as illus- trated, When a tiltilelt is placed too close to the trunk of a tree it affords a sheltered place for field trtioe which damage bark and roots, CAR manufacturers say it will be some time yet before new cars will be available for all.

KEIL, Gorrie Representing— Household Hints By MRS. MARY MORTON Cooking for just one person, your- self, is -quite an art. 'was talking with a business woman who has lived alone for years and she -was telling me what she had discovered about it. She said for one thing, that she did not mind eating one kind of vegetable, for in- stance, for several days, in succession, as some people might. She found -one lb. of frozen green peas would last her for about five meals. She need not necessarily eat them five days' running, for they would keep frozen in the top of the refrigerator, under the freezing unit for several days, so she could cook a few at a time. Or she could cook! them all, if she preferred, and they would be good for a week or more, Meat Items Chops, small steaks or hamburgers would be her usual meat items, with an occasional chicken or larger piece of Meat when she was entertaining. Of course, the solving of the whole problem would depend largely upon the type of eater the person was, large or small, and his or her tastes. Following is a suggested menu: Today's Menu 1 broiled lamb steak or 2 chops 2 baked or -boiled potatoes 4 ears of sweet corn Raw carrots and celery Floating Island Tea or Coffee You might have some of the lamb steak left, or one of the chops, you could buy the three small ones, if you preferred, which could be ground tip for the next night's dinner, minced onion added, some milk or water, cooked for a short time and served on toast.
