KITCHEN ECONOMY.


a. stationary wire soap dish attached

vent bits of soap wasting in the water.
Soft soap, made from half a pound of
hard soap and two quarts of boiling
water, is more economical for laundry
purposes than ordinary washing soap.
Some heavy unbleached muslin
should always be placed over the flour
barrel, under the lid, to keep out dust
and insects.
A variety OF bags in assorted sizes,
labeled and fastened to the pantry door
to hold kitchen towels and dish cloths,
prepared and ready for use, Is fea-
