Kitchen Towels

Unless you have had TO turn to and
do the dishes yourself you cannot
realize how necessary it is to have
linen dish towels. If you have wish
ed to cut expenses by substituting
cotton or half cotton towels for those
of pure linen you have really not
shown true wisdom, for the cotton
dish towel soon becomes stained and
it is a Characteristic of linen that it
gives up stains much more readily
than cotton. Then. too, the cotton
towel is fuzzy and linty. 1t is inn
possible to dry glasses or fine china
satisfactorily on the cotton towel.
1t is well worth while to have an
abundance of dish towels. The fact
is, a dozen dish towels will last more
than twice as long as six, because il
you have many they will be washed
more often. If you keep maid re-
member that a meager and unsatis-
factory supply of dish towels is going
to have an effect on the way she does
the dish washing. You can't expect
her to dry the dishes nicely unless
she has good dish towels.
In the house where an electric
washing machine is part of the equip
ment il is a waste of time to have the
dish towels washed out in the kitchen
after meals. Then you should have
an ample supply of towels so that
they may be kept fresh by bi-weekly
washing If there is a mangle then
they should be put through the man
gle too, because this makes them look
better at very small outlay of time.
Besides, it is an incentive to do good
worfto have fresh, smooth towel to
work with.
Even when you have an electric
washer it is a good plan TO have the
towels boiled semi-occasionally. espe-
cially in hot weather. when there is
so great need for every attention to
cleanliness in the kitchen. However.
If they are not boiled. remember that
clothes washed in hot water and good
soap suds and then dried in the sun
light are just as perfectly sterilized
and freshened.
