Prepare the crust in the ordinary manner. The radiators should be hissing hot. This makes the crust more crisp. Use ordinary pie tins, slipping them into the wire rack.

Apple Pie

Line a plate with crust. On the bottom scatter one-fourth cupful of sugar mixed with one tablespoon-ful of flour. Fill the plate with apples, sprinkle them with sugar and add some small pieces of butter. Bake in the Caloric rack about three-fourths of an hour, using two radiators. Any fruit pie may be made according to this recipe.

Date Pie

Line a pan with rich paste. For the filling use one cupful of dates cut fine, one-cupful of milk, two thirds cupful of sugar, two eggs, one-half teaspoonful of cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Fill the crust and bake in the Caloric rack one hour, using two radiators. When cold, cover the top with whipped cream.

Lemon Pie

Add to one cupful of boiling water one table-spoonful of cornstarch stirred smooth in a little cold water. Stir until it thickens and boils; then remove from the stove and add a scant one-half cupful of butter and one cupful of sugar, which have been well stirred together. When cool, add one beaten egg and the juice and grated rind of one lemon. Pour into a baking pan which has been lined with crust and bake in the Caloric twenty minutes, using two radiators. When done, cover with a meringue and return the pie to the Caloric to brown, using two radiators.
