The New World" oven turns cooking from an art to a science The "Regulo" control dial keeps the oven heat just right for the work in hand. You may be miles away, but your meal will be perfectly cooked. The cooking chart tells you the figure at which to set the dial, and the time for cooking. The "Regulo" does the rest, and docs it perfectly. If you make no mistake in preparing the food, nothing can prevent perfect results. The New World" is AUTOMATIC. There is no guessing the heat. No watching, and no waste of gas. **
