The June issue of the Volt, which
1« Just off the press, deals with a
timely topic which Is, just now, up­
permost In the minds of practically
the entire feminine pogiulatlon of
Josephine county. The subject Is
“The Advance in Cooking" and has
to do with the remarkable progress
made in the culinary art since the
day of our cave-dwelling forbears
nnd which has now culminated In
the highly efficient method of elec­
trie cooking.
This number coming out as It does
Just In advance of the Courier Cook­
ing School which takes place next
week Is of particular interest to
every woman who plans to attend
this interesting demonstration of
modern cooking methods. A brief
outline of the Medford and Klamath
Cooking Schools la given and an an­
nouncement of the Granta Pass
Cooking School appears In the same
article. Several good photographs
of the crowds who attended the
•chools In these cities are shown as
well as pictures of the ladles who
had the good fortune to win th« first
prizes In the bread-baking contests,
thereby being richly rewarded to the
extent of a *235.00 super-automatic
llotpolnt Electric Range.
Interesting facts and figures arc
cited throughout the article to show

that there are now over 1300 elec­
tric ranges on the Copco system.)
which represents a gain of nearly
30 per cent since January 1, 192*.:
The reason for this exceptional gain
is obvious when one reuds in this
article a paragraph which states a«
follows: "A study of all Copco do­
mestic cooking consumers shows an
average use per month for lights and
cooking of 161 Kilowatt Hours at a
cost of *5.62 per month."
Not only la the domestic cooking
situation discussed In an Interesting
way but the commercial use of elec­
tricity Is also given considerable
space. It is a revelation to many |
to learn that nearly every new and |
up-to-date cafe, restaurant or bak-‘
ery Is equipped with all manner of
electrical appliances which range
from huge electric ovens to electric
ovens to electric refrigeration sys­
tems. Several good pictures of
such modern equipment of Southern
Oregon commercial users are repro- '■
duced In thia number.

most enthusiastic schools in the
state. The attendance increased
nearly 100 per cent each day.
The contest which is to be held
on the last day for cake, pie and
bread bakers appears to be drawing
the major attention. The prizes
which are on display in the window
of the Holman furniture store are
creating comment among the cooks,
who are planning to have a try for
one of them. There is a Hotpoint
super automatic electric range for
the woman or girl who can bake the
best bread. For the second prize in
this division a floor lamp has been
donated by the Holman Furniture
