The quantity of water that adheres to it from washing is enough to steam it tender; there should be just enough water to keep it from scorching. Garnish the cooked spinach with hard-boiled eggs put through a vege- table ricer. or cut in slices. The eggs improve both the looks and the taste of the dish. When you cook vegetables such as potatoes, peaa, cauliflower, etc., put in enough water to have a cupful left as a foundation for a light, nourish- ing soup.

And you, Phil?" Use a Fireless Cooker. Food which has started cooking over coal, wood or gas is placed in the cooker and continues to cook be- cause the heat stored within escapes so slowly that the cooking is pro- longed indefinitely. Food requiring long, slow cooking can be started over a quick fire and finished in the cooker, with a saving in fuel and a cool kitchen. Soapstone disks are re- quired for baking and roasting, and these, instead of the food, are heated; and the cooking continues without danger of burning. The food container must fit closely into the nest, and should have a close- ly-fitting lid; for not only the food, but the a,ir between the food and the lid, must be thoroughly heated before it is placed in the cooker. There is considerable comfort in being able to start the breakfast cer- eal while you are doing up the supper dishes, knowing that you will find it perfectly cooked the next morning, requiring only a quick reheating be- Water Power of the Empire.
