PRESERVE YOUR SHOES.


We all wear shoes. If we manage
them rightly they will last longer. we
viii not need so many new ones, and
there will be more lett for others The
Following suggestions from the lea her
ana paper laboratory of the United
S ates department OF agriculture can
be utilized by every one who walks
shoes should be oiled or creased
whenever the leather begins to get
hard or dry. They should be brushed
thoroughly and then all the dirt ana
mud that remains washed off with
warm water, the excess water being
taken off with o dry cloth. While the
shoes are still wet and warm apply
the oil or grease with awab OF wool
or flannel 1t is best to have the oil
or grease about as warm as the hanl
can bear, and it should be rubbed
well into the leather preferably with
the palm. If necessary the oil can be
applied to dry leather, but it pene-
trates better when the leather is wet
After treatment the shoes should be
left to dry in a place that is warm,
not hot.
Castor oil is satisfactory for shoes
hat are to be polished for palmer
footgear neatsfoot, fish oil or oleina
may be substituted If it is desired 10
make the shoes and boots more water
proof, beef tallow may be added to
Iany OF these substances a the rate Of
lhaIf a pound Of tallow to pint of oil
The edge Of the sole and the welt
should be creased thoroughly Too
much grease can not be applied to
these parts
A simple method of making the
soles more durable. piable and watar
resistant is to swab them occasionally
with iinseed OIL setting them aside to
dry over night.
Many Of the common shoe polishes
ara harmful to leather All those
wi zen contain sulphmic, hydrochlorie
AMI oxalic acids, turpentine benlne
or other volatile solvents have a Ten
den9y to harden the leather and make
it more liable to crack.
Two in One Shoe Polish, sold by
the z T Daley Corporations, Limited
is guaranteed not to injure shoe
leather, having been sold for years,
and proven a great success.
