HOME DEMONSTRATION NOTES :
BY Jessie p. Hastings.
Wool Conservation.
Wool.

VOOl OOuSCI VdllOHs
Wool.
There are 15,O00,0O0 less sheep in
the United States than in 1903, Ow-
ing to rise in land rental and in
creased pay to sheep herders. Be-
fore the war, the United States grew
2-3 of the wool used in our mills and
imported 1,S. Now no wool is i'm
ported except from South America.
Our Allies have need for all they can
produce.
Cotton.
Forty per cent Of the mills of the
4 country are doing government work.
A bale OF cotton is needed to fire one
of the large guns. Vast quantities
OF unbleached muslin and gauze are
sNsed ia Red Cross work.
j Linen.
4 Millions of yards of linen are need
ed for aeroplane wings. Much fax
was raised near the German border
and was trampled down. The fax
in Belgium was ruined during the
German, invasion.
It is said that American women have
worn out only Is per cent of the gar
ments they bought. They will now
have the other IS per cent to rely on.
Suggestions for Making Over.
The present styles, showing cornbi-
nations of materials, lend themselves
easily to the made-over problem.
Suits may usually be made into very
desirable one-piece dresses. Rip,
wash and press old materials before
making them over.
To Remove the Shine from WOOlens.
Press wooden materials through a
wet wooden cloth. The nap of the
pressing cloth will pull up the nap OF
the garment.
Press wool material with piece
of wet crinoline over it (white for
light materials, black for dark ma
terials). The crinoline will stick to
the wool and will pull up the nap.
Press material through heavy wet
cotton cloth. Iron until cotton cloth
is dry, wet the cloth again, place it
over the material, rub the iron over
it. This removes the shine, but does
not take out the press.
Bleaching Linen and Cotton.
Soak garment in a solution made
by dissolving as nearly as possible
" to ounce of chloride of lime for
each gallon of water, then straining
sediment through a cloth. Rinse
thoroughly and boil in good suds.
Wet with kerosene, let stand sew
eral hours, and wash in hot suds
Method used for removing letters
from sacks).
Boil in washing powder solution.
Rinse thoroughly.
Home DyeiAg Directions.
Dyeing will not cover grease or
dust spots. Choose dye according to
nature of fabric to be dyed Ex-
amples, cotton dyes for cotton ma
terials; wool and silk, acid or basic
dyes.
If mixed goods are dyed, use cot
ton dyes and keep in the dye long
enough for wool or silk to take on
the desired shade If wool is stitch
ed with cotton, stitching should be
removed II stitching cannot be re-
moved, cotton dye should be used.
Cotton will not take acid or basic
dye. wool or Silk.
Hens and folds should be ripped
open and interlinings should be re-
Materials must be immersed

Cynical Observation,

A woman may insist on having the
last word in an argument, but even
after you've granted her that you've
got to be mighty careful or she'll start
another argument.-Exchange.

or not is aiding and abetting their oppo-
