Canning in Conifert
with gocused Went
0U don’t have to dread the
season of canning and preserv-
ing any more. It is a time of interest
and pleasure when you use the
Florence Oil Range—the stove w ith
the focused heat.
The heat goes directly where it
will do the most good, the bottom
of the pot. And there it stays, con-
centrated and intense, sending its
energy straight into the cooking,
and not out into the kitchen.
For cold-pack canning, for steriliz-
ing jars, for gentle cooking you can
adjust. the heat to any degree you
need, by the simple turn of a lever.
