Text Appearing Before Image:
green sticks C (Fig. 95)are placed in a slanting position and supported by othersticks, D (Fig. 95), the top ends of which rest in notches cutin C stick at E (Fig. 95), and the bottom ends of which arethrust into the ground. Against the upright sticks C, andthe logs F are heaped to form the back of the fire. The fireis then built on the two fire-dogs AA, and against the F logs,the latter will burn slowly and at the same time reflect theheat into the open tent front. This same fire is sometimesused for a baking fire, but the real fire for this purpose ismade by the B ELMORE Lay Figs. 96 and 97. The first sketch shows the plan and thesecond the perspective view of the fire. The stove is madeby two side logs or fire-dogs over which the fire is built andafter it has fallen in, a mass of red hot embers, between thefire-dogs, two logs are laid across the dogs and one log isplaced atop, so that the flame then comes up in front of them(Fig. 97) and sends the heat against the bread or bannock.

In wilderness work the frjing pan is about the onlydomestic utensil carried and is used as a toaster, a baker,a broiler, a frjcr, and a stew pan all combined. In it theBuckskin man and the Sourdough make their bread, andafter the bread has been baked over the coals on the bottom,it is browned nicely on its top by tilting the pans in front ofthe fire and resting their handles against the waugan-stick(Fig. 97). I have seen tlie baking fire used from British Co-lumbia to Florida, but it was the explorer, Captain BehnoreBrowne, who showed me the use of the waugan-stick in con-nection with the baking fire, hence I have called this theBelmore Lay. A Frying Fire Is built between two logs, two rows of stones, or sods(Figs. 98, 99 and 100); between these logs the fire is usuallybuilt, using the sides as fire-dogs, or the sticks may be placedin t
