aipartmanial work will appraclala I ha
truth of the saying that half a man in
experimental work mean a quarter of
a man In the result obtained, and a
quarter of a man means no man at all.
I believe It Is largely due to the fact
that women have had only "quarter
time " which has brought down upon
them the criticism that women are In
clined to dabble In experimental work.
It reminds one of the occasion when
one woman went with five men to hold
a farmers' institute. The one woman
did all the work in the women's aua
alona, and at its close one of the men,
tired and weary, said, "Yes, It la hard
to carry a meeting when there are only
two speakers; three make it much
easier!" Therefore, the teacher of
home economics find it difficult to
"squeexe In" experimental work with
her teaching, and the time of the house
keeper is so broken that she, although
' she may be well trained In science,
would find herself only quarter of a
man, so far aa results were concerned.
Further, could not the information be
made available for all, and should there
not be a clearing house for such practi
cal Information?

and It la not lnooncelvabla that central

It can be done In tbe home. This would
never mean that those methods of cook
ing which ar now considered accessory
might be o well developed that they
would become sufficient, in the hop of
proving such an accessory method prac
tical some experimental work has been
done with the electrical range.

IK rang Is enlightening. In tbe inter,

trlrfly for cooking purposes I 10 per

following flrur wer ehUped:
To boll oa quart of wlr In a eld

nd cost $.0071;. to bak a layr cak re
quired forty-flv minutes' time (Includ
ing time required to beat th oven foe

loave of bread required one hour and
eighteen minute and coat LOT: to cook

five pounds of roast beef, roast pot

loaf of bread with. oJ 'and gas, wa
find: - ';;3tu - ';;,.: ' '

Electricity am.
Therefore, cooking with electricity Is
ss yet an expensive method of cooking
and much ' slower. On the other hand,
1t does satisfactory work. It Is cleaner
than gas or coat, and always ready, so
that the optimistic housekeeper will
hope that the electrical companies will
develop th rang to make It mora
efficient
Other problems, such as high-altitude
cookery, which seems to be a question
of density of gases, so far as Miss
Brown has Investigated; or such' prob
lems as the question of using different
flour for bread and the difficulties with
different yeast; or, again, th effect of
the pasteurization of milk upon tha or
ganlo compounds, "could be worked out
for the housekeeper by the home eco
nomic worker, if she bad tbe time and
means for such work. .
Looking toward a provision for just
this work. Senator Smoot Introduced aV
bill Into congress in March, 1910. which
was read twice and referred to the
committee on agriculture and forestry.
This was a bill to provide for sn Id?
creased annual appropriation for ag
ricultural experiment stations, to be
used In researches In home economics
and regulating the expenditures thereof.

I am told that the bill was never r-
ported out by tbe commute, hot that
it caused discussion and.,, helped to
cripple the extension bllL
As much of th experimental work in
borne economlca can be done beat by
co-operation with the experiment sta
tions, this bill would provide for th
beat possible arrangement. It will prob
ably be modified before adoption, and It
may be that a dosen staUona located
throughout tbe country could do as
much as the four dosen; 'but undoubt
edly each locality needs its experiment
eta tlon.
Then, with our college girls as future
housekeeper versed In science; a well
trained home economics worker devot
ing her whole time to her research
work, and with experimental 'stations
providing sufficient means for such
work, the application of science to the
housekeeper's dally problem would b
'assured.

Care of the
TO KEEP a refrigerator In a good
condition. It is neceaaary to clean
It thoroughly once a week, and to
give it a little cleaning each day. The
first essential to dally care is In regard
to keeping of food In the refrigerator.
This should not be kept until It la
spoiled. Care roust also be taken In
keeping the food chambers dry and
clean. When anything Is spilled on the
shelves, take care that it la wiped up
thoroughly and immediately. In coun
try towns, where there la no sewerage
system, the refrigerator empties into a
pan. This should be emptied everyday,
or oftener If need be.
The weekly care should be done much
more thoroughly. First the ice and
ail of the food should be removed.
Then all of the shelves should be taken
out and washed with hot water and
soap, then scalded. The inside of
the refrigerator should be thoroughly
cleaned In the grooves and corners with
a brush or skewer and a scouring pow
der. It should' then be dried very care
fully. Finally, the waste pipe should
be cleaned with a cloth on a rod or a
wire and a solution of potash or sod
poured down the pipe. If possible, the
refrigerator should be left open for an
hour or two. ,
If the water pipe of the- refrigerator
does not empty Into a pan, it should
empty into the open end of a perfectly'
properly trapped drain pipe. The pipe
should never be connected to the drain
pipes of the house unless there Is a
good trap to prevent odors and , foul
air from entering the Icebox.
cut la dice. 1 carrot, l' small turnip, 4.

liquid off of a can of peas, add the peas
to the casserole, cover closely and cook
in a vary moderate oven for from 1 to

chicken. A very young chicken will re

Refrigerator
Food may be preserved for quit
long period In the ice closet, although
It 1b sure in the end to undergo certain
forms of putrefaction. Meat kept In
tha refrigerator wilt. In .the course of
time, undergo a type of decay due to
the. micro-organisms favored by a low
temperature.
Always keep' all food covered in tha
Icebox, particularly milk, as it absorbs
other odor quickly. Buttar la also
very susceptible to odors, and ggs
have been known to absorb Odor from
onions and other strong vegetables
placed near them. For this reason, it is
a wis plan never to put strong vege
tables, such as onions, turnips, cab
bage or parsnips in th Icebox. Fish
should never be kept in th refrigerator
tinder any circumstances, as it is Im
possible to rid the chest of the "fishy"
odor for weeks.
The efficiency of the refrigerator de
pend upon its temperature. Tha
larger tha amount of ice the lower tha
temperature, and therefore th greater
me emciency. 11 toe amount or ice t
very small, there will be such a hlgH
temperature that the food will spoil
readily, bo it la advisable to buy as
large a piece as possible, and to always
keep the supply sufficient to Insure a
low temperature. If paper Is wrapped
about the ice when it is put In the re
frigerator it will not melt so readily.
If the Ice melts low before th Iceman
calls, open the doors of the cheat and '
keep them open until ' the fresh supply
of ice is put In.
