Miss Finfrock says that gas bills arc larve for these reasons:-- Hocaust- the housewife usee the giant burner on her range when a smaller one would do. She lights two burners al a time, and then lets one of them wait while she is getting fi>od ready. ,"v She takes food off the fire and leaves the burner lighted until she has time io put on a te.i-kett.le of dish water. 8he buys all soris of all< god gas-savin?devices, without fSiidiug out whether they really save gas, altho her gas company would tell her.' She uses the ens oven td1 host the kitchen and to dry damp clothes. t> She uses the oven as a storage place for food, the moisture of which causes the oven to rust. Then she complains because the range lsols so short a time. * She allows water aDd food to boil furiously, instead Of turning down the flame.- She has her husband turn the gas part way o'f at the meter Thin gives her low pressure, and Increases (he time necessary for preparing the meal. She uses a wornout tauge, with burners out of adjustment. She does not know that the gas company would be glad to tell her what is the matter with the range. She never cleans the burners of the range. She uses the oven for baking, but does not plan to keep it full. She could plan baked potatoes or acasserole dinner for baking day She uses larger cooking utensils than she needs. In a set of triplicate saucepans she could cook three vegetables elver one burner. She uses open vessels, which consu much gas as closed vessels of the same size. She fails to report to the gas company when she gets a wasteful yellow flame. * Your'Gas Company is always glad toco-operate with you in securing the most perfect adjustment of appllaacM and pressure.
