PREFACE One of the first means of raising funds for a club house was the publication of "The Club) House Cook Book” in 1914 by Mrs. J. H. Burger and Mrs. P. W. McKenzie, a small volume containing 250 favorite recipes of club members. Thanks to the generous support of the club the limited edition was soon exhausted and there has been a continuous demand for another. To meet this demand the “Home Economics Section” has compiled this volume, an enlargement and it is hoped an improvement on the original.

A good test. Try your oven by means of a piece of white paper. When the paper becomes the color of meat pie crust, the oven is suitable for small pastry. When the paper turns light brown, the oven is ready for pies, etc. When dark yellow, you can bake bread or large pound cakes. If the paper is just tinged the oven is suit- able for meringues and sponge cake. Brown sugar will stay moist and free from lumps if kept in the refrigerator. Seeding raisins. The seeds will readily come from raisins if boiling water is poured over the raisins and allowed to stand for a few minutes before draining. The flavor will in no way be affected. When making apple pie roll a few gratings of cheese into the crust. Beef cooked in a fireless cooker should not be salted until done. MRS. N. C. FONDA. When opening water glass eggs keep the yolk in the large end. It is not so apt to break. MRS. C. B. ALLEN. Fish balls may be brushed with melted fat and baked 15 minutes instead of frying. Pie crust will not be soggy if brushed with the white of an egg before the fruit is put in. To whip thin cream, or augment, add the white of an egg. Salt will curdle new milk; therefore in making gravies, etc., the salt should not be added until the dish is prepared. To boil eggs until the white is "set," cover with cold water and put over the fire until they come to a boil. For pasting labels, etc., use white of egg; they will not come loose and will stand dampness and water. Grate an apple into your horseradish and you will have a fine relish. When food sticks to cooking vessel, or becomes scorched, set it for a few minutes in cold water; if burnt, change immediately to another kettle, being careful not to disturb the burnt portion.
