When you are using the oven, collect all the scraps, put them in a tin in which there is just a little dripping, and leave till the fat is all melted. Then strain and allow to set. This is excellent for cooking. $C SOOO MCC C SONS RH SE ESSE OREO ETON ESTE ROHS EEE SESS OSEEE ESOT RESE OS ESO REESE ESSE HESS ESE FEESSSEST ER OEE SHS TEU ERENT ESSE EERE M EE SOUPS—(Continued from page 4.)

When you think the 4 stove isn’t looking very spick and span in spite of its daily clean, ; | it probably requires a special clean. For the special cleaning — ( ( i of the stove a little more elbow grease is required. “ All parts of the stove should be cleaned, and can quite easily be done in the following way: ‘ _ 1.—Remove all loose parts, such as burners and oven ‘shelves, * and scour with hot soda water. Great care should be taken to prevent the water from getting into holes in the burners. Dry each part thoroughly. . i oe roe: 2.—Wash the interior of the oven and scour if necessary. Return the oven shelves and light the gas for a few minutes to finish off drying. - _ 3.—Clean the black parts. You will find that if the black parts of the stove are polished with furniture polish (not cream) the result is excellent, and it is a very clean method. Blacklead ~ can be used, but it is liable to come off on to your hands and oven cloths. Paraffin should never be used, as itis very inflammable, To get the utmost use out of your cooker you must remember :. ___1.—To use a burner, the size of which is suited to the pan, that is, do not allow the flame to lap outside the pan.
