Cleanliness within the refrigerator
i- most important—especially if
baby foods are stored therein. The
old-fashioned ice box should be
scalded out periodically to keep it
sweet and clean. In the best auto-
matic refrigerator, however, the
use of scalding water and soap is
Hot necessary. Simply piping th«
box out quickly with a cloth wet in
a cold solution of baking soda and
then wiping dry is sufficient.
In The automatic type, defrosting
the chilling units is necessary about
twice a month in order to maintain
proper radiation of cold from the
unit. It can be done over night. Be-
fore retiring, turn off the current—or
gas, if you have one of tht. new
noiseless refrigerators which oper-
ates by gas. By morning the re-
frigerator is again ready to function
and the drip pan can be emptied and
fresh water put in the ice-cube trays.

Except for sports wear the rum-

Two cups whipping cream, 1 cup
puree of fresh peaches, 1 talespoon

hours or more.
