The cost of electric cooking is in general as cheap or cheaper than that of cook ing with wood or other fuel. This economy is due in part to our special cooking rate. The roasting of poultry and meat has always re quired frequent basting and constant attention. But in the electric oven, the rich juices of the roast are re tained, shrinkage is reduced and basting becomes unnecessary. After the first quick heat, the current is reduced to a small amount and cooking is finished by means of the stored heat on the tireless cooker principle. Our local bfHce will be glad to discuss with you the company's low cooking rate and some of tho many other practical advantages and economies your neigh bors are enjoying. Or, ask your electric dealer to ex plain the convenience and economy of the electric range, and the easy payment plan whereby you can have one installed right away.
