If the group of girls plans for a camping trip of several days and transport is available, all the following utensils will be found useful. These may be purchased in any sporting goods store. _Three Wire Toasters_--One for meat, one for fish, one for toast. In cooking meat or fish, and in making toast before a blazing fire, stand the wire toaster upright before the fire and prop it up with a stick. A board may be used in the same manner. It is often desirable to do this in order to avoid the delay of waiting for the fire to burn down. _Cooking Pots_--Size 5 quarts, for boiling vegetables; size 6-1/2 quarts, for boiling vegetables; size 9 quarts, for hot water; size 15 quarts, for reserve cold water. Each of these pots nests in the next larger size, making one package. A cocoa pot of this type nests into the 5-quart pail. _Two Frying Pans_--The handles fold in and the pans pack in a case with the nest of cooking pots. In addition to their usual uses, the frying pans are also used as dish-washing pans, one for the washing and one for the rinsing. [Illustration: COMPLETE COOKING OUTFIT FOR EIGHT SCOUTS] A heaped teaspoon of washing soda dissolved in hot water will so perfectly clean the frying pans as to permit their use as dish-pans. Eight agate plates, or aluminum if possible; eight agate cups, or aluminum if possible; eight knives, forks and spoons; one large, long-handled cooking spoon. The complete cooking outfit may be nested together and packed in a canvas bag and takes up about as much space as a water pail. Provisions "When a party camps where fresh meat and farm products can be procured as they are wanted, its provisioning is chiefly a matter of taste, and calls for no special comment here. But to have good meals in the wilderness is a different matter. A man will eat five or six pounds a day of fresh food. That is a heavy load on the trail. And fresh meat, dairy products, fruit and vegetables are generally too bulky, too perishable. So it is up to the woodsman to learn how to get the most nourishment out of the least weight and bulk in materials that 'keep' well. "Light outfitting, as regards food, is mainly a question of _how much water_ we are willing to carry in our rations. For instance, canned peaches are 88 per cent. water. Can one afford to carry so much water from home when there is plenty of it at camp? "The following table is suggestive: More than 3/4 water Fresh milk, fruit, vegetables (except potatoes). Canned soups, tomatoes, peaches, pears, etc. More than 1/2 water Fresh beef, veal, mutton, poultry, eggs, potatoes. Canned corn, baked beans, pineapple. Evaporated milk (unsweetened). More than 1/3 water Fresh bread, rolls, pork chops. Potted chicken, etc. Cheese. Canned blackberries. Less than 1/3 water
