POINTERS FOR WASH DAY.

A very hot iron should never be used
for fannels or woolens
Clothes lines are made much more
durable by boiling for ten minutes be-
fore they are used.
Table linen should be ironed when
quite damp and ironed with hot and
very heavy iron.
Embroideries should be ironed on
thin smooth surface over thick flannel
and only on the wrong side.
Irons should not be allowed to be-
come red-hot, as they will never retain
the heat properly afterwards.
Linen may be made beautifully white
by the use of little refined borax in
the water instead of using washing
fluid.
Wash fabrics that are inclined to fade
should be soaked and rinsed in very
salt water to set the color before wash
ing in the suds.
Silken fabrics, especially white silk
handkerchiefe, should not be dampen
! ed, but ironed with a moderately warn
iron when taken from the line-Jour
nal of Health.

SHIPPING LIVE CHICKENS.

The shipping of poultry alive in car
lots is becoming quite common business
in Iowa. 1t seems Sl30 is the freight on
a car to New York, and with the cars
made especially for that purpose so
many thousand pounds can be loaded
that the cost of taking one old hen to
New York can only be expressed by
fractions. But it takes so bushels of
corn to feed them on the way, for their
appetite holds out owing to the charm
ing scenery they pass through, many of
these hens never having seen hill or
mountain till they get into these palace
chicken cars. But to Offset the expense
for corn, these Iowa hens lay about
thirty dozen of eggs each day, which
more than pays for their feed, with a
small credit for passenger tickets. One
shipper tells the writer whenever they
stop at any town of size down east, mer
| and women come to the car to get fresh
laid eggs, which said shipper accommo.
| datingly sells for five cents a dozer
above the market price. And, said thi
enterprising Iowan, sometimes the de
mand is so great for fresh laid eggs tina
we have to buy several cases on tn
way to New York.-Times-Repu
