'" mi nt' mt ,.. i fteI Clip i II W iruce 1 'mo HAVE food well cooked will not $F ' require much skill if the camper WH 'H '""'B lU 1UU UUCkHVim - most important iooa on mc menu ib the bread and right here I might say that very few campers have bread that is fit to cat, owing to the fact that they depend on the spider or bannock bread, and this delusive method cither produces a burnt, overcooked product or a doughy mess that is anything but palatable. And for this reason alone I would suggest that the camper burden himself with a small Russian iron oven, similar to that used on an oil or gas stove. How to Make Biscuits Flour, baking powder and salt will all absorb moisture, so that it is verv important to hnvc these ad juncts in tin containers for storaec. ' Now fill a quart bowl or dipper with uour, using a spoon .u .u., ., place in a bowl and add i Three level tablespoons of baking j powder, ! Two level tablespoons of sugar, j Two teaspoons of salt. ' Rub this between the hands to thoroughly mix and then rub into the' prepared flour four tablespoons of shortening and mix to a dough with one and three-quarter cups of it water. Knead in the bowl for two minutes to blend and then pat out on a lightly floured table three-quarters of an inch thick. Cut, using either a biscuit cutter or cut into " squares with a knife. Brush the top with water and bake for eighteen minutes in a hot oven. This will make from twenty-five to thirty bis- cults, depending on the size of the cutter used. A piece of white oil- o cloth may bo used for rolling out biscuits, etc. Now, these biscuits may be baked on the sheet-iron top for a change; rake the fire and have it burnt to a red glow. Roll or pat the dough one half inch thick and then lay on the sheet. When one side is nicely browned pirn on the other side; allow fifteen minutes for baking. Keep this in mind, that rapid cook ing only sears the surface and leaves the center raw. So the fust thing to do Is to secure a steady fire. This can best be maintained by using large pieces of firewood, so that the embers or coals will give a steady heat. Loose fires are dangerous, and for this reason the camper should be particular to wall in his fireplace on three sides and make a provision for rainy weather. Bank the fires with bark, moss or ashes when not in use. Fried Fish Scale and cleanse the fish, and then wash and drain. Now have one half cup of vegetable cooking oil in the frying pan and then, when hot, add the fish. Fry until crisp and brown on both sides, then turn the cut side to fry the center of the fish. Lift to a pie tin and place in an oven while the balance of the fish is cook ing. Use vegetable cooking oil in place of lard. This oil can be used to fry other foods, as it does not hold the fish odor. Coleslaw Shred a head of cabbage fine and place in salted water for one-half hour. Drain well and then add Two green peppers, chopped fine, One cup of mayonnaise, One tablespoon of salt, ., One tablespoon of 'paprika, One-quarter cup of vinegar.

Baked Beans With Salt Pork Soak the beans one pound early In the morning and at noon place in an iron kettle and cover with water. Bring to a boil and drain off this water. Cover with water.

In fact, as n rule these women spend a great deal less on their clothing than the. type of woman who never has what she wants when she wants it. Of course the lat ter type invariably speaks of thp first mentioned as a lucky woman. Surely such women ate lucky, but In a way they make their own good luck, for it n through tneir own careful planning, good taste and system that they are well and appropriately dressed. After all rt woman's clothes must fit the kind of life she lives.

These shelves rest on side braces placed at desired intervals. A bread-baking pan, 14 by 10 inches, is placed on the top and the frame rests in a 17-or-18-inch pan. All of the woodwork, the shelves and the, pans should receive two coats of white paint and one or two coats of white enamel. ' This makes an attract ive surface and one that can be casil) kept clean. The screen wire also may receive the coats of enamel, which will prevent it from rusting. A cover of cotton flannel, burlap or duck is made to fit the frame.

The door can then be opened without unbuttoning the cover. The bottom of the cover should extend down Into the lower pan. Four double strips, which taper to eight or ten Inches in width, arc sewed to the upper part of tho cover. These strips form wicks that dip over into the upper pan. - The dimensions given make a refrig erator of convenient size for house hold use and one with efficient evapor ating surface, but it is not necessary to follow strictly these dimensions. If a larger capacity is desired, the height of the refrigerator can be increased. How It Operates Operation of the refrigerator shown in the illustrations is as simple as its construptlon. The lowering of tem perature inside ithe refrigerator de pends upon the evaporation 'of water. To change water from a liquid to a vapor, or to bring about evaporation, requires heat.' As evaporation takes place heat is taken from the Inside of the refrigerator, thereby lowering the temperature of the inside and the con tents. Keep the upper pan filled with water. The water is drawn by capillary attrac tion through the wicks and saturates the cover. Capillary action starts more readily if the cover Is first dampened Dy uipping It Into water or throwing, "' upuu ii wiin tne nana. The greater the rate of evaporation the lower the temperature which can be secured; therefore the refrigerator works best when rapid -evaporation takes place. When the refrigerator Is placed in a shady place In a strong breeze and the air is warm and dry, evaporation goes on continuously and vapidly and the temperature inside the refrigerator is reduced. Under ideal conditions the temperature has been known to be reduced to CO degrees F. When the air is damp the refrigerator s ill not work as well, since there is not enough evaporation. More water will find Its way to the lower pan, but it will be drawn up into the covering by capillary attraction when the air be comes drier. Care of Refrigerator The refrigerator should be regularly cleaned and sunned. If the framework, Bhelves and pans are white enameled they can more easily be kept in a sani tary condition. It is well to have two rovers, so that a fresh one can be used each week and the 'soiled one washed and sunned.- Adventures With a Purse I FOUND some lovely scarfs today for bureau or dresser.

"I really don't know; you haven't answered ray question. I asked first." "Well, I'm going home just now." Dan returned. Ruth looked at him closely as he spoke.

She let herself into the apartment somewhat ashamed of her outburst and her treatment of Alice, who, no matter how disagreeable, was after all a guest. All of her resentment returned, however, when she found that Alice was not home and that everything was in precisely the same condition as It had been when she had left. She took off her street dress, slipped her pumps on slipper trees, got into her morning dress and proceeded to buckle to.
