The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, August 22, 1968—PAGE 3 SPOSTS AFIELD By Ted Resting For efficiency and pleasure in preparing meals afield, every camping family should acquire at least one of the modern port able camp stoves that utilize some form of petroleum fuel. Cooking with an open wood fire, as useful as it is on occa sion, has many drawbacks. For example, it is practicable only if a generous supply of wood is b th handy and lega 1 — which increasingly means wilderness or semiwilderness camp areas. In many campsites, open camp fires are forbidden. One reason is the hazard of accidental grass or forest fires. Another is neo phytes who innocently figure that wood is wood and attack live, standing tieos. In intensely hot weather, women campers, who usually do most of the cooking, find an open fire an utter nuisance. They burn their hands, flying sparks scorch their clothing, smoke gets into their eyes and hair. And when it rains, the cook’s first thought might well be, how far is it to the nearest drive-in restaurant? These same lady campers do splendidly with a modern petro leum-fueled camp stove. To one accustomed to a city-gas kitchen range, the comforting blue flame of the pressure camp stove is a familiar source of cooking heat. Adjustments are about the same, though the flame of the camping stove may prove a bit hotter than the one at home. During inclement weath er, camp stoves can be used beneath a fly, or possibly inside HOMECOMING AT TRINITY a big tent. The fumes are toxic, however, so in the case of a tent be sure to h-ave plenty of ventilation. Increasingly popular are the various new camp stoves fueled with liquefied petroleum gas — either in disposable cylinders or in a refillable tank. The gas is put into the tank under pres sure that condenses it into a liquid, either (in the case of disposable cylinders) at the factory or (in the case of the refillable tank) by an accredited LP-gas dealer. It makes its own vapor, and that is what you burn. It is simple and neat; clean and safe. LP-gas stoves are already standard for trail ers, pickup campers, motor homes and many boats. But for the ultimate in camp cooking, advises John Jobson, Camping Editor of Sports Afield Magazine, the camper should sooner or later latch on to a folding, or collaps ; ble, wood-burning sheepherder stove. Where wood is available and its use legal, such a stove is highly useful. And compared with the heat-wasting open campfire, it is relatively sparing of fire wood. A good wood stove is a joy inside a tent, exuding an aura of healthful, dry, cozy heat. You can dry out clothing and be snug in wet, cold weath er. And a wood-burning sheep- herder sotve emits such an infinitesimal amount of the dreaded carbon monoxide that the pores of the tent fabric more often than not provide sufficient ventilation. Thus, you can button up the tent. seven-room brick veneer dwel ling, $18,000. James D. Ellisor City William R. Folk Denmark Mrs. Julia Farrow City William Frye City Miss Donna M.
