  • Atj.ko.kan, Ontario, Canada, Nov. 21, 1913. Dear Mr. Kephart: The oval nesting pails mentioned in Outer's Book are sold by the Poirier ?ent and Awning Co., 106 East Superior street, Duluth, Minn, This firm has been outfitting timber cruisers in Minnesota almost as long as any one can remember. It issues a •mall catalog, sent upon request. The .pails are quoted as follows: No. Pails Weight, lbs. Price, 3 2 3/4 #2.00 4 4 2.25 5 5 3.00 I have lifted the four-pail outfit. In this the irgestTlcettle < is 9 3A by 5 3/| and 0 3/4 inches deep. The smallest. is 4 1/4 by 5 l/s and 4 3/4 inches deep. The smallest holds about 1 l/i quarts and the largest about six quarts. I have never measured them. These pails are made of tin, with separate bottoms, soldered to the sides. Rails are riveted and eoverscome down on the outside with three-quarter inch rims. For tin, they stand, an astonishing amount of wear, I do not know of any other manufacturer of pails of this shape, nor do I know of their being made from one piece. A friend in Chicago tried some time ago to get a s#t made in aluminum but was told that the cost of making machinery for their manufacture forbade their being put out, even to meet a moderate demand. In aluminum they would be ideal as , if hung pronerlv, the four take up little more room over a fire than two of the ordinary aluminum round kettles. They require much care and, of course, we cannot keep stewed fruit in them. We do cook dried fruit in the kettles, but remove it as soon as it is done.
