Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t Is usually neces
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and flneness OF the fabric Is
hidden behind u paste OF varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality OF the goods. This trou
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as II can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
or strength than other makes.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1907-06-07

The extraordinary popularity Of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch q matter Of great I'M
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe TO use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as stiffener
makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result of perfect
finish. equal to that when the goods
were new.

The king and queen Of Denmark

OF property from her father. the late
King Charles of Sweden, besides the
immense fortune OF her mother. who

THE DUST MULCH.
II Prevents Evaporation Of Moisture
ard Causes Roots to Strike Deeper.

A Matter of much importance, both
as regards saving moisture and pre-.
venting root injuries, is the depth OF
surface tillage. Too shallow cultiva-
ton will not be effective In checking
evaporation, still one must know that
the soil should not be stirred SO deep
that the top roots are cut. II this is
done the growth Is at once checked
and the roots are forced lower In
search Of supplies. From two to three
inches have been found the best depth
for fiat cultivation, where the ground
has been thoroughly prepared When
seed bed has been thoroughly fined,
proper handling will bring the corn
crop along, with the minimum amount
OF rainfall. The problem, says In.
diana Farmer, Is to maintain good
capillary action between the lower
water systems and the soil where the
roots are growing. When the water
moves upwards and strikes the dust
blanket II is checked, and II must pass
cut through the plant rather than by
evaporation. II is pretty nice prob.
lem, but the aim should he to make
all water and fertilizing material pass
through the roots of the growing
plants, work for the dust mulch;
don't dig down to the wet soil, so
that with every cultivation you ex.
pose more soil to the sun.
