Fresh fruits and vegetables fit for ‘the table are the only ones fit to dry. Send them straight from the gar-, ‘den into the drier, A good grade of product is as necessary for drying as for can- |! ning. -l For the housewife who desires to utilize-the heat furnished by the range or stove in the course of her cooking operations to dry a supply of food- stuffs. for family use, there are cook- stove driers in wide variety upon the market. These range in type from a imple skeleton frame of wood or light on, supporting three or more trays Iof wire screening and designed to stand upon the top of the stove or to be suspended from the ceiling above it, to rather elaborate wood or metal cabinets having six to ten"trays and holding fifty pounds ‘or more of raw products at a filling. ¢ When the ampunts of material to be handled are smaller than would justify the purchase of one of these devices, the oven of the ordinary coal or wood stove or that of an oil or gas stove may be utilized; the materials to be dried may be spread in baking tins or upon bits of wire netting and placed in the oven. the door left par- tially open to allow the watervapor to escape, and the fire carefully regulated in order that over-heatifg and conse- quent injury to the product may not occur. If the quantities to be dried are too great to be handled in this manner,.and it is not desirable to pur- chase a drier, there are a great varie- ty of home-made devices which may be easily constructed at the expense of a little labor. In overating cookstove driers, whether of the simple home-made type or more expensive and capacious i the qua manufactured de: The temperature m: fully watched; the tr: amined from time to time in order that any portions whijch are not drying properly m: be spread more thinly. This wiil also guard against over- drying with the resulting production of erisp, brittle, scorched or browned {material. If driers are being operated |over a gas or oil burner there is al- (ways danger. that the central portions of the lower trays may become over- heated while those higher up are dry- nz more slowly: this should be cuarded against by supplying the drier | which is being so used with a plate of | sheet jiron, perforated with fine holes, vhich * replaces the lowest tray and acts as a radiator to distribute - the heat to all parts of the drier. Importance of ‘Ventilation. One mistake frequently made by amateurs is to fail to open the ven- tilators of the drier to their fullest extent when the device is in use. A good drier is as unlike a baking oven s possible: in the oven every efiort is made by making the doors fit al- most air-tight. to hold in the steam produced when the material is heated while in a drier an attempt must be that the daily capacity of the drier Dry While Yo.u Cook—Use a Cookstove Drier By United States Department of Agriculture.

To accomplish this re- quires that the air inlets and outlets at the base and the top of the drier be opened widely in order that a brisk current of warm air may flow* con- stantly through the apparatus. Any drier which is not provided with abundant openings for the escape of air is a poor drier, no matter whatrits degree of perfection in other respects may be. A seconq mistake frequently made by beginners is to attempt to increase the capacity of the drier by overloading the - trays. A deeply loaded tray of such materials as sweet corn, for ex- ample, may dry perfectly upon both upper and lower surfaces, while a central layer, protected by the! compactly packed grains above and below it, has lost very little water. | Such deeply loaded trays require fre- | quent stirring, dry unevenly, so that| portions of the material are too dry while others have more moisture than is permissible, and consequently turn out a product much inferior in qual- ity to that which would be produced in the same drier with lighter load- ing. A Furthermore, the time required to dry a deep layer is so much greater than that necessary for a thin one is decreased rather than by heavy loading. EQUIPMENT NEEDED FOR DRYING PRODUCTS Needed For Products. increased Equipment Drying The equipment used in preparing food materials for drying may be as| simple or as_elaborate as the needs | of the case may requ With two or | stiff-bladed Kkitchen | three narrow, knives, larger, more flexible knife, | ordinary wash-boiler, the | ped for preparing | h quantities of the s and vegetables as will meet the | ordinary household. | somewhat tedious, hand paring | and slicing of apples, pears, peaches, apricots, onions. carrots, ~ potatoes, | beets, and cabbags may be done with- | out special equipment. | If the quantities of material to be | and blanching su frui handled will justify the expenditure,| the purchase of a few special uten- | sils will greatiy reduce the labor m-‘ volved. An apple parer of the ty which pares and cores or pares, cor and slice can be purchased for ap- | proximate $1.75.. A kraut cutter which consists of a long board havi one or more steel blades fastened t the edges of slots cut in the board may be purchased or made by a blacksmith and will be useful not only in slici & e for drying or| for making sauer kr slicing any of the root vegetables or 1 fruits as apples. A rotary slicer, isting of a curved blade fastened right a a metal trough in which the vege: to be sliced are placed. is a grez but also for | con- venience, ‘as the blade may be ad- justed to cut slices of any desired | thickness, and the instrument may be ! used for slicing meats, cheese, or bread as well as for cutting vege tables. Such slicers are made in va rious sizes costing $2 to $10.
