. FIRELESS COOKES ' Let it Help Von Cook I ' / —The Government J Tells How. TO MAKE COOKE!’. May Cost on Less Than a Dollar—A Big » Saving. The I . S. department tn ngricultu> ■. in the food administration department, sends out the following bulletin on the tireless cooker, urging tht w< men : > let it help them cook Ihi built- ) says: ! ‘ You can't afford to be without one. The lireless cooker t an save fuel winter and make your kitchen co forta’de in summer, it will give y.;i better food, it will save you tnnt aa I labor for you can have your dinn r cooking while you attend to cti. ! duties or go away from home. Ma . ,'one for yourself It may cost less th.■» a dollar and a ill pay for itself in tiire and fuel saved. Or buy a ready-m i ' one. ‘ How a fireless cooker cooks. First the fi.od is made as hot as it < an laon tl'e stove, then it is put immediate I |ly into the cooker. Once there ‘ | stays hot and kt ei s on cooking. Tl. | walls of the tireless cooker keep th | heat in just as 'he walls < f a good ’■ frigerator keep the heat out. | Material Needed for a Firele Cooker. —1. The outside container any good-sized box or bucket with > tight cover a grocery box. a butt ■’ firkin, a wooden candy bucket a 16 pound lard can, or a new garbage car 2. Packing material—soft hay. exc 1sior. ground eork. sawdust, tightly ( crumpled newsjapers, or :uiy oth<-’ good non-conducting material that ■?’ be packed in closely. This paekii material forms a nest for the cookin;' vessel. 3. The ne<t lining—a me’ 1 or enam°l bucket and sheet asbestos to cover the bucket. The busket must have straight sides and a lid and must be of such a size as to allow at least ' three inches of packing material be- ‘ tween it and the outside container, tos t bottom and sides 4. The cooking ves- • sei—a vessel with a tight lid to lit j 9 side walls of the bucket which is to in ami out easily, or two or three of ‘ the small ones especially made forth? ■ fireloss. The best kind is of enanu 1. f granits or aluminum. 5. Cardboard 1 —to make the collar. 6 The cushion r —denim or muslin stuffed with the packing material This cushion is to 1 be pressed down across the top under € the outside lid. 7 Two soapstone * disks—purchasable at a hardware ■ store. They are not needed for all 1 cooking, but with them you can cook ! mere quickly and in Greater variety. f To Make the Fireless Cooker—i. ( Line the outside container with new • ' paper if a wooden box is used. 2. • Pack the botoni of the outside contain- 1 er compactly with a layer of the pack- 1 ing material to the depth of three * inches or more. 3, Cut a circle of as- 1 bestOH two inches larger in diameter 1 than the nest lining. Place the a: ' bestos mat in the center of the pac? 1 ing. 4 Cut a strip of asbestos Mr ’ enough to cover completely the out- 1 side walls of the bucket wh-lh is >o 1 J serve as the nest lining, and tie it i" ’ place. 5. Plate the bucket with its ’ asbestos covering directly in the cent- ‘ er on the asbestos mat. Hold in place ‘ and tightly fill in the space between ' it and the wails of the outside con- 1 tainer with the packing material. Tack ' in solidly to within one-half inch of ! tlv top of the bucket. The success of your cooker depends largely upon the tightness with which you crowd in the racking material, which prevents the heat from escaping from your hot food 6. Cut a i lece of cardboard to fit In , the outside container. Cut a hole in t the middle of it which will fit closely | over the bucket which forms the nest | lining. This “collar" holds the packI Ing material in. plac.v 7. Mai?) the cushion for tlio top by cutting two pieces of cloth the size of the outside container and putting them together 'with a straight atrip of cloth three i inches wide. Stuff with the packing material. 8. Outside finishings. If a i box is used for the outside containo’’, the lid should be hinged and fastened down with a hook. If it is of wood. i paint or stain it a dark color. Casters make it convenient to move about. Some Precautions in Using the Fireless.—Don't let the food cr disks cool before you put them in the fireless. The food win not cook unle- ii there Is enough beat shut u- with ft. | Reheat the food that requires long cooking, if it cools before it is finished. Reheat the foo l bef< re serving, if necessary, a small quantity of food cools quickly, so either use the disks or put a small vessel containing ttjj-
