TO KEEP YOUR GAY
SUMNER FROCKS SO

Your gay summer frocks-more
gay this year than you have ever
worn before-will need careful laun-
dering.
There are various ways Of setting
their color and keeping them quite
like new. Blue. for instance, washed
in a mixture OF half cup OF mild
vinegar 10 a gallon Of water, is not
injured. Pink or red can be washed
in the same solution with success.
One tablespoon of sugar Of lead
to each gallon of water will set the
color in your lavender gown and
keep It bright. Sugar of lead is good
for green materials also.
If a salt solution is used It should
be made with a handful of salt to a
gallon OF water. the material should
be allowed TO remain in the water
for some time.
Extremely hot water. a very hot
iron or strong soap will dull fabric
colors.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1l---Market-
ing reindeer meat in the United States
is one of the newest problems that
has been put uR to the Bureau of
Markets, United States department
OF agriculture. for solution. Alaska
has approximately 100000 reindeer
a number that leaves Il considerable
surplus over what is needed for home
consumption. Specialists estimate
that Alaska is ready to market about
5000 carcasses at present. The fact
that the herds have increased from
10000 head in 1905 to 100000 in
1920 indicates how soon the market
ing of reindeer meat will be real
problem.
During the last few years exports
of this meat have increased rapidly.
In 1914 only rs carcasses were ship
ped out of Alaska; in 1920 1900
dressed carcasses were shipped into
the United States. 1t is thought that
within the next Is years there may
between four and five million rein
