Most ranges can be cleaned with soap suds and water. Detachable parts may be removed and cleaned with a fine abrasive. When food is spilled on an elec tric heating element, allow it to char, then brush oft. The charring may be done while cooking over the burner to save electricity. Coal and tcood ranges must have their ashes empted daily. Brush the soot from the bottom of the lids and from outside cf the fuel box each week. RECIPE OF THE WEEK Curried Shrimp (Serves 6) 4 tablespoons butter or substi tute 4 tablespoons flour 2 teaspoons curry powder Vt cup shrimp liquid VA cups milk 2 5-ounce cans shrimp, drained 3 XA cups hot, cocked rice 2 tablespoons chopped parsley Melt butter, add flour and curry powder. Stir to a smooth paste. Add shrimp liquid and milk; cook over low heat until mixture thick ens and bolls. Add shrimp; heat thoroughly. Serve on rice, sprin kled with chopped parsley. Wash the outside of a coal or wood range with soapy water, and when the range has cooled, wipe oil with a cloth dampened In kerosene or light lubricating oil. If the wick on your range has a beveled edge, this must be main tained by wiping the wick that way. 1 Fuel tanks on kerosene and gaso line ranges need draining about every three months and more often if fuel tank gets water. Tip the tank back, remove cap from fuel line, tip the stove to drain fuel and clean pipe with a stiff wire. Then wash with clean fuel. Wipe cast iron gas burners and oven racks with mineral oil or kero sene to keep them from rusting. Stove blacking gives a high polish to wood ranges, but It should be rubbed off thoroughly or it will blacken the bottoms of cooking 'utensils.
