Mrs. Housewife, Do You Know? (Note—Each of these household problems has been worked out by the author, who has not only taken a course in scientific housewifery and dietetics at Columbia University, and written and edited a women’s newspaper and magazine for years, but Is a practical housekeeper as well.) L Where and when were chickens first domesticated? 2. What is the object of soaking cabbage and cauliflower in cold water before cooking? 3. Why should milk bottles and glasses be rinsed in cold water before being washed in hot water? (These questions will be answered tomorrow by the Housewife.) ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S QUESTIONS. 1. It Is generally agreed that the light flesh In poultry has much less muscular power than the dark flesh, hence the breast and wings of chickens, turkeys and birds that fly but little have light breasts and wings. 2. To keep cheese in good condition, wrap it in a cloth that is very slightly damp and then wrap In paper and keep in a cool place. 3. Meat should be cleaned by wiping with a clean damp cloth or by scraping with a sharp knife. Do not wash as water carries off the albumen. —Copyright, 1920.
