The latest wrinkle in laundrying
table linen is that both cloths and nap
kins be ironed without creases. When
ironed they are folded mot pressed)
loosely and put aside. When needed,
any folds which have asserted them
selves are pressed out with warm
iron. Napkins are ironed from hem to
hem, not from selvage to sewage. and
are folded loosely. no creases being
ironed in. Care should be taken to
fold the initials or monogram on the
outside
Heavy damask table linen does not
need starch, but the inferior quality
will be all the better for n little though
even without starch the poorer quality
can be made to look well if, when it is
washed and dried and ready for iron
ing, it is dipped into boiling water and
then wrung as dry as possible between
cloths before being ironed with as hot
an iron rs can be used without scorch-
ing it. This treatment will render lin

Prospects For Dairv FarmIne

Taking the country in general, the
field of dairy farming never held forth
better promises than it does Mt present
During the last year the price of
cheese and butter has been uniformly
high, especially that OF cheese And
there is no reason for believing that
the active condition of the market is
not to continue. In fact. we have rea-
son for anticipating better prices for
butter and cheese in the new year
than we have had in the last.
In the Department Of Agriculture at
Washington vigorous efforts have ,een
made in catering to foreign trade for
butter. The efforts of the Department
have been quite successful. With a
larger expectation of butter we are
assured of better prices at home.
The impending doom Of the colored
Oleomargarine interests also gives
great hope to the dairymel. The vic
tory of the dairymen Of this country
over the manufacturers of colOred oleo
is simply a question of time. 1t seems
however, that this victory can be
gained by other than legal measures
though perhaps very much more slow
ly. The decadence OF the cleo inter
ests is assured by improving Our gen
uine butter. What we want is more
and better creamery butter and less
poor dairy butter.-John Mchels. in
