VINEGAR VERSUS BUGS.

For the housewife who dislikes the task of picking over greens of various kinds because of the numbers of tiny bugs Which often cling to the leaves, here is hint which may prove help full: After picking off all dead leaves and other foreign matter, just put a small quantity of vinegar say a quar- ter of cup, into a painful of water in which you rinse your greens. and you will be surprised to see how the little bugs will drop off into the vine gar water. The acid of the vinegar seems to render them powerless to cling to the leaves, and thus water cress, lettuce, spinach, dandelions and other greens may be quickly and cas- fly cleaned of insects. usually give the greens final rinsing in clear water.-Woman's Home Companion.
