Starching Coiored Fabrics.

Dresses of different cOlOrs should
never be washed together. After the
garments are washed and blued (vio-
lets, reds and yellows, however, should
never be blued) they must be starched
in separate starch basins. For when
various colors are starched in the
same basin they naturally absorb each
others tones. Never use hot starch
on colored garments. Use cooler.
thinner starch than you use on white
materials. Perhaps the best results
are gained by putting the dress into

 Numerous instances of alleged profit eering in gasoline were reported to the different oil companies and service sta tions yesterday. Prices ranged from 50 to 70 cents gallon. these reports said, whereas the retail market price of the fluid is 30 cents the gallon. No legal action has been taken to put a stop to the profiteering. it was stated.

 Soldies are given GO days from May 3 to file their claims. and applications can be filed by service men 20 days prior to that time- All such applica- tions are, however, considered simul- taneous, and if two applications are made for the same site the applicants will have to draw.

In spite of transportation difficulties due to the gasoline shortage and hail storm, approximately 900 people were gathered at Pomerene (near Benson) Friday, Saturday and Sunday in at tendance at the meetings of the Ari- zona conference of the California mis- sion.
 President Jos. w. McMurrin, head of the mission work in California;; Supt- Claud c. CornweI of the mutual improvement work, and President Louissa w.

 This is the largest gathering of Lat ter Day Saints and missionaries which has ever been held in southern Arizona and the Pomerene building was taxed to capacity.

NJ GASOLINE FUR PLEASURE CARS NON BEING SOLD.
What Little the Companies Have On Hand Is Being Conserved for Tractors and Strict Emergency Use

Gasoline was almost d. scarce as whiszey in Phoenix yesterday-and the demand was even greater. Stranded automobiles on main arteries of travel told mute story of the shortage, which is daily becoming more acute. Relief is in sight, say officials of oil com panies serving this territory, and hopes are held that the situation will be ma terially clarified by the end of the present week.
 Phoenix is not yet gasolineless, but the supply is being conserved to the ex- tent of rationing commercial cars and denying oil to pleasure cars to prevent total exhaustion of what little stock remains here.
 Oil company officials within a few days, provided continued improvement is noted in strike conditions. The com- pany has five cars of the much wanted oil somewhere on the Santa F'e" be- tween Barstow and Phoenix, but the exact location is unknown. Receipt here of these five cars is confidently expected by the end of the week
 A single car of gasoline was received heer by the Standard Oil company yes terday, but there was no let down in the rigid rationing policy adopted some time ago by this company. No gasoline is being served gasoline service sta tions by the Standard Oil company, which is conserving it's supply for tractor and commercial use. The com pany itself is supervising the distribu- tion, gasoline being served to tractor operators in two-day rations. Oper- ators of commercial cars can secure a limited amount after making the proper representations.
 Nope For Pfessure
 The Union Oil company is able to serve a limited amount to few serv- ice stations each day, in addition to tions regarding the sale of the juice however, have been placed at these service stations, owners agreeing to use the oil in commercial cars only, and then in limited quantity.
 Provisions also are being made by the Union Oil company for the relief of tourists, automobile owners whose cars have been stranded, doctors. city and county officials and other ener .ency orders.
 The Union Oil company, however, has 10 gasoline en route to this city. 1t was stated yesterday, nor is any likely to be moved PhoeniXward until the freight congestion is relieved. This company has not received any gasoline since the strike started, but through eareful conservation complete short age has been averted. At the present ate of consumption, the company's supply will hold out for another week.
