A large iasulatcd oven, modeled somewhat like an ordinary gas stove, is more expensive than is a firelesH cooker; but the cost of a moileratc-sized range with an inwu- kited oven is praet ically 1 he same as that of both a gas range and a firek\ss cooker. This is a subject worthy of investigation by one who is purehiising new kitchen equipment. Firekss cooken^* The comm(*rcial fii*eless cooker costs more than does the home-made one; ou the other hand, it is hkely to Ik* more durafile, it seldom lias any absorbent material exposed to tho odor and the steam from food, the cooking compartment can l>e kept clean more easily, and it is frequently provdtled with a ventilating valve or some such device that makes Iniking and roast inic fK>ssib!<\ However, the hom£»-made fircless cooker has proved to be wholly satisfactory for such foods as cereals, vcge* tables, dried fruit^i, custards, fowls, and certain cuts of meat.
