Color Should
Be Set

Manufacturers endeavor to set
the color of the dyes in their
fabrics, but are not always able to
FIX them permanently. Special
treatment before washing will
sometimes help, according to Farm
ers' Bulletin 1899 on home launder-
ing recently issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Various chemicals may be used,
but some of them are poisonous and
for that reason undesirable. Com
mon salt Is measursbly effective
for setting most dyes. but is not
likely to have a permanent effect
and the process may need to be re-
peatcd whenever the garment is.
laundered. No special rule can be-
given as to the amount of salt TO
use; about one cup of salt to two
gallons of water is good proper
ton to try, and more salt may be
added until the color stops bleed
ing" The color is more likely to
be set II the material can be left in
the salt water over night rather
than for a shorter time, and If it
can be dried before washing. Some
times salt Is put in the final rinsing
water In laundering colored goods.
Soap Is less effective in water to
10 Nu1Cn salt has pct1 Suutu.
Colored clothes in general should
bc washed In lukewarm water and
neutral SOAP solution, and the fabric
squeezed rather than rubbed, &C
cording to the bulletin. Unless the
color Is fast, no colored clothes
should be soaked for any length of
time. nor should they be boiled or
exposed. to too high a temperature
in washing, rinsing, starching, or
ironing. II the color seems very
delicate, very cool water Is advis-
able, and soapbark. bran, or cooked
starch water should be used instead
of soap. With color likely to
fade or run, rapid washing is SAT-
est: the material should be wrung
as dry as possible and rolled in a
cloth to absorb extra moisture; an
even safer way Is to shake the gar
nent dry. For dark colors IL is
well to tint the starch; for example.
tea may be used for blacks. browns,
and greens. and bluing for blues,
and the specially prepared mourn
ing" starch for blacks. Colored
clothes should be dried in the shade
and should not be allowed to freeze.
They should be ironed on the wrong
side.
