Treatment FOR TOOLS.
Simple Solution For Keeping Metal
Free From Rust.

Free From Rust.
All iron tools, such as squares,
wrenches, pliers, dividers, screwdr1v-
ers. etc. have the unwelcome property
Of rusting. In damp shops the tenden-

Edelman in Scientific American. For
all such cases as arise with plain iron
tools chose not plated or painted) the
following treatment will be found to
be an efficient preventive measure:
Obtain some potassium bichromate

sodium hydroxide dye. The water
used as Il solvent should be distilled
and warm or hot If possible. To a
gallon Of water add about n OF two
tablespoonfuls Of the %hydroxide, and
after it is dissolved add the bichromate.
Make the solution sa~turated-i. e., put
in as much of the bichrOmate as Will
dissolve. Since the crystals do not
dissolve very fast, the solution should
be stirred.
Now clean the tools, utensils or the
like which are to be treated. They
should he smoOthed and polished If
possible. Sandpaper or emery paper
or cloth will he found serviceable for
this purpose. Then submerge the tools
in the solution. When several pieces

one, two or more days or ever for sew

out Of the solution and used as needed
and then reinserted in the solution.
In such case care should be taken to
keep the tools clean or else to reclean
them.
Some tools. such as screwdrivers,
squares. dividers, ETC., can be left in
the solution continually. day in and

work of the intrepid woman editors

1t has shown that women accomplish
what they set out to do in spite of
rain and snow, in spite Of some ridi-
Guile and adverse prophecies by the
way. They have stirred up the rural
districts between New York and AL
bany and have shown the farmers that
suffragtsts are not all tenderfeet. They
have accomplished much good without
harmfng themselves. We hope that
there may be many pilgrimage
throughout the state to help win the
referendum in 1915"
