[Footnote 5: _Laboratory management._——In the school kitchen the
dish-washing may be done at the sink by housekeepers appointed for the
day, or if equipment allows, the work may be done in twos with some
definite plan for dividing the work.]
[Footnote 6: These terms perpetuate the names of scientists famous for
their work in electricity. Volta was an Italian who invented an electric
battery; Ampere was a French electrician; and Watt a Scottish engineer and
electrician.]
[Footnote 7: TEACHER’S NOTE.——The teacher of physics can coöperate here,
and indeed throughout the whole topic of apparatus and cooking processes.]
[Footnote 8: TEACHER’S NOTE.——If a meter can be used, very exact problems
can be worked out with gas and electricity.]
[Footnote 9: TEACHER’S NOTE.——These experiments may be performed as each
food material is used. In this case a page should be kept in the notebook
for the table of weights and measures, and each observation recorded as it
is made. It may be that the perishable articles will not be on hand,
except as they are used in order. The weighing and measuring should be
dwelt on all through the course.]
[Footnote 10: Both these methods were taught by French cooks connected
with well-known chocolate firms, and both give good results.]
[Footnote 11: “Cereal” is derived from the Latin word “cerealis,”
pertaining to Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture.]
[Footnote 12: The manufacture of flour is discussed in the chapter on
bread making.]
[Footnote 13: U. S. Department of Agriculture, Farmers’ Bulletin 389, p.
16.]
[Footnote 14: Several of the large firms manufacturing flour issue
pamphlets descriptive of the whole process, to be mailed free on
application.]
[Footnote 15: “Some Points in the Making and Judging of Bread,” 1913.
Isabel Bevier, Univ. of Ill. Bulletin No. 25.]
[Footnote 16: For Furnishing the Dining Room, see “Shelter and Clothing,”
p. 88.]
[Footnote 17: U. S. Department of Agriculture, Farmers’ Bulletin 487.]
[Footnote 18: Contributed by Mary Swartz Rose, Ph.D., Assistant Professor,
Department of Nutrition, Teachers College.]
[Footnote 19: Observations of the food eaten by individuals or groups of
people are also called dietary studies, whether the observed dietary is
such as to satisfy the food requirement or not.]
[Footnote 20: One quart of milk yields 6-3/4 portions.]
[Footnote 21: Rose, “Laboratory Handbook for Dietetics.”]
[Footnote 22: The apportionment of the income to the different expenses of
living (food, clothing, shelter, etc.) is discussed in Chapter XIX. It
will be found that the smaller the income the higher is the percentage of
it which must be allowed for food.]
