The Question Box Q—My
festive layer cakes a disappointing failure. The layers cracked on the top and the cake was very dry. I have been baking for some years and always make fairly passable cake. Can you suggest a reason for my failure this time? A—If the oven is too hot the cake will brown on the top before it has sufficiently risen; then, when the [heat reaches the center of the layer {or loaf, and it begins to rise, it will break through and crack ‘the crust. As to the dryness, too much baking powder, insufficient beating for {the amount of shortening and sugar. and over-baking are the usual causes Q—Are varnished floors injured iby using soap and water in cleaning | them? { A—In general, they should not be treated with water, but if badly soiled they may be wiped with a mop or cloth wrung out of warm, slightly soapy water, then with a rag or mop moistened with clear water, wiped dry at once and polished with ‘a oiled mop or cloth. The appearance of badly worn varnished wood may be improved by rubbing with a floor wax. Ordinarily they are best cared for by dusting clean with a soft brush or dry mop, then rubbing
lv moistened with floor oil, kerosene or furniture polish. |
