Hurrah! How's This
Cincinnati authority says corns
dry up and lift out
With fingers.


Hospital records show that every
time you cut corn you invite lockjaw
or blood poison. which is needless. says
Cincinnati authority, who tells you
that quarter ounce Of a drug called
freezone can be obtained at little cost
from the drug store but is sufficient to
rid ones feet of every hard or soft
corn or callus
You simply apply a few drops of
freezone on a tender. aching corn and
soreness is instantly relieved. Shortly
the entire corn can be lifted out root
and all. without pain
This drug is sticky but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without infaming or even irritat-
ing the surrounding tissue or skin.

DONTs FOR KNITTERs OF SOCKS

Don't cast on tightly. An other
wise we'll knitted sock may become
useless by this tight cord at the top.
Don't knot your wool. Join it
by splicing the ends or leave two
or three inches of each end and
darn back carefully.
Don't make heel with seam on
the sole.
Remember a man may not have
a chance to change his socks for
many days, and lump or knot
brings blister. If the blister breaks
blood poisoning may set in and re-
suit in the loss of a foot or even
life. We cannot afford to lose
our men thru negligence or ignor-
ance.
Don't use black, dark or bright
colors. There is again a danger Of
poisoning.
Don't use needles too fine for the
wool The knitting should be elas-
tic; if too tightly knitted the sock
becomes hard and boardlike in use.
Don't make foot less than eleven
inches long.
Make all measurements by ruler,
with sock fiat on table. Do not
stretch sock.
Socks should be Numbered as fol-
lows:
Wash. socks in warm water with
ivory soap, then rinse in water the
same temperature. Squeeze, but do
not wiring. Pour over boiling water
and let stand until cool. Hang until
nearly dry and press with warm (not
hot) iron. Do not press ribbing.

EAT, BUT DON'T WASTE

Eat more potatoes and save wheat
does not mean to waste potatoes
Many housewives who would be in
dignant if accused of wasting pota-
toes are actually throwing away
daily much of the valuable mineral
and protein content of the potato
because they pare the potato too
deep. Some very valuable sugges-
tions on the preparation of potatoes
for the table in order to avoid waste
have been prepared by the extension
division of the Utah agricultural
college. These are, in part, as fol-
lows:
''If potatoes are to be pared, but
a very thin layer should be removed,
as much of the mineral and protein
content is directly beneath the skin
and is lost in deep pairing. Potatoes
are best boiled with their jackets
on, steamed, or baked. Prepared
thus there is no nourishment lost
and the flavor is best. When pota-
toes are to be baked, the skins may
be eaten as they are rich in mineral.
Baked potatoes are the most easily
digested because the starch has
undergone a stage of digestion in
the baking.
Potatoes should take even more
important place in the diet than they
ever have as they are an excellent
substitute for wheat -four when used
with other nourishing foods as
dairy products. They are cheap and
easily digested."
Baked potatoes are best when
cooked as follows:
Wash skins with vegetable brush.
Use smooth skinned, medium, uni
form size potatoes. Bake in a
moderate oven. If cooked very
slowly they are soggy; if cooked in
hot oven, thick layer is formed
over the potato. The contents may
be removed and mixed with cubed
meats, sauces, hard cooked egg,
cheese, fish, ETC., then replaced and
heated or just eaten with sauces or
fat, as dripping, butter, etc.
