SHORT CUTS FOR CLEANERS.

help.
For the vanished and painted fur

make an excellent cleaner and polisher
The turpentine cuts and removes the
dirt while the oil polishes Add three
tablespoons Of oil and one tablespoon
OF turpentine to quart of hot water.
When this has cooled enough, dip.
cloth into 1t. wiring It out dry, and
wipe the furniture thoroughly. More
cleaner may be prepared, but II the

PRESSURE COOKER.
In any community where group Of
women may wish to secure a pressure
cooker for their canning work or gen
eral cooking purposes. the Farm Bur
eau will be glad to assist them in se-
curing one. "A good many Of these
pressure cookers are now in use in
general cooking purposes as they save
much time in the preparation Of foods,
especially In large families.
In communities I'm which the local
merchants do not handle pressure
cookers the Farm Bureau is In pos
sition to secure them, reasonable dis
count from the purchase price OF pres
sure cookers and in cases where an or
der for six pressure cookers are re-
ceived . very marked discount can be
secured. Retail prices Of this pressure
cooker are as follows:
Ten quart size, $4,000; ~ quart size,
$500: Is quart size, $500.
These cookers are now made In three
distinct sizes, with stationary Jugs,
flat bottoms, which insure quicker
heating, straight sides. allowing great
or capacity and with adjustable safety
valve which permits the operation Of
the cooker at any desired temperature.
All trimmings nicely nicklsd, which
adds much to the appearance Of the
cooker. A recent change In the con-
struction eliminates all possibility Of
leakage around the cover
munity group or other organizations
Similar assistance can be given COM
who wish to purchase tin cans for cam
ming, either plain o renamelled lining.
The use OF tin cans has become almost
universal in some localities. "A new
canning appliance makes 1t possible to
use the cans three or four seasons.
