Can vou explain why maple syrup molds so Quickly -after a can haa been opened? We get it from the maker, and it is guaranteed pure. I have to skim off the top each time before pour inn syrup in a pitcner. Gradually the uell cate flavor is affected. Thanking you, MRS. V. E. S. POSSIBLY you keep it in a damp or mold-infected place, or it may be not sufficiently concentrated to keep well. Not knowing the product or how you keep It makes it difficult for me to advise. A plan that might help would be to empty the large can into bottles (about the size needed for each time you fill your syrup pitcher) putting about one-half a teaspoonful of cotton seed oil or liquid paraffine on. the top of the' syrup and then cork closely. Only one bottle need be opened at a time. The oil excludes the air and can be removed by using a little absorbent cotton. Before trying this rebottling plan, however, you might try the ef feet of plugging the opening of . the can with a piece of absorbent cotton in stead of a cork. This, however, is only a "hopeful" and not an "infallible" treatment. HERMISTON. Or., Feb. 29. Will you please publish at your earliest convenience a recipe for douehnuts. the kind that are lisht and 'puffy.' made -with either sweet or sour milk or buttermilk? G. E. E. Following are recipes for doughnuts which are "light and puffy" if properly handled and carefully fried and drained Use as little flour as you can In rolling and handling. "Knack" in handling the rolling pin and in keeping a thin fit of flour, unbroken, over the soft dough Is very important. jsweet-miiK doughnuts: One cup sugar, two and one-half tablespoons butter, three eggs, one cup milk, four level teaspoons baking powder, one fourth teaspoon cinnamon, one-fourth teaspoon grated nutmeg, two level tea spoons salt, sifted flour to make a soft rolling dough." Cream the butter and add the sugar, eggs and milk, as in cake making. Add abut three and one half cups flour, .sifted with the baking powder, salt and spices. Add enough more flour to make a light, soft, puffy "rolling dough." Toss one-third of the mixture on a board, pat. smooth out nicely and roll very lightly to one- third-inch thick. Cut with a doughnut cutter dipped in flour. Fry in deep fat hot enough to brown lightly one half inch cube of bread in 60 seconds. The doughnuts should come Quickly to the top of the fat, brown on one side and then brown on the other. Sour milk doughnuts should be turned as soon as they rise and frequently after wards. Do not cool the fat by putting In too many doughnuts at once. The doughnuts will be greasy and soggy if the fat is too cold. If the fat is too hot the doughnuts will brown before they are risen, and may even be quite raw inside. Hence - the need of care in testing the heat of the fat and in keeping it at a uniform temperature. A heavy iron "Scotch bowl" is excellent for frying a large quantity of dough nuts, because of the way the Iron re tains the heat. Lift the doughnuts with a skewer or wire egg-beater, drain first over the kettle, then on paper. Roll in sugar or not as pre ferred.

A New Method of Baking Cakes Mrs. Nevada Briggs, the baking expert, says: "There is just one way to make your cakes rise high and evenly give them time to rise before a crust is formed and the batter ia stiffened by cooking." "If using a gas, gasoline or oil stove, light your oven when you put the cake In and keep the name low until the cake has doubled in bulk; then increase the heat until it is evenly browned and will respond to - the pressure of the finger. If using a coal or wood range, leave the oven door open until the cake is in; then turn on the drafts and by the time the oven is at baking temperature, the cake will have raised sufficiently." ) For rich, moist, feathery cakes Mrs. Briggs always recommends W Baking Powder It is double acting and sustains the raise. You can open and close the oven door, turn the tin around in the oven or do anything else necessary, without any danger of making the cake fall. Try your favorite cake next time with K C Baking Powder and see how much higher it will rise. Make it just as you always uo, with the same quantity of baking powder. While K C ia less expensive than the old fash ioned baking powders, it has even greater leavening Strength and it is guaranteed pure and healthful.
