A simple way to starch fine arti-
cles, such as organdie dresses, shirt
waists, corset covers, baby dresses,
dresser scarfs. or any other dainty
article that must be starched, is to
wash in suds with a little boraX,
rinse dry, take lump Of starch, the
size of a walnut, and two cups Of

TlNTiC SHELTER is
ROLLING OUT BULLION

With one furnace in operation, Manager
w. Lester Mangum of the Tintic Smelling
company's works yesterday reported that
full carload of fine lead-silver bullion
was ready for loading. From the moment
the furnace was blown in last Friday there
has not been single hitch and within
the next few days il is expected the sec
ond furnace will be placed in commits
sion. When that event takes place the
company, which has something like 5000
tons of ore at the works now, will give
the signal for all the mines with which it
has made contracts to cut loose and begin
shipping, and from that time on the smelt-
er will be making things hum.
1t has been decided TO equip the works
with q powerful auxiliary steam power
plant so that, in the event that storms
or ether cause should put the electric
power to the bad, there need be no ces-
sation of operation in the smelling works.
The equipment for the two additional
lead furnaces is now beginning to arrive,
and 1t will not be a great while until the
plant has four lead furnaces instead Of
two in full operation, together with a 300
ton copper furnace. Before this time next
year the Knight smelter will be recog-
niZed as one of the top-notch plants of
the state, handling more than 1000 tons
of ore day.
