Authority given federal reserve banks to purchase "A per cent Vic tory notes direct from holders at par and accrued interest up to an aggre- gate amount of $1O0,OO0OOO has been further extended from May 15 to June 15, 1922, Secretary Mellon has announced.
 Immediate removal of Prohibition Commissioner Haynes for advocating the use of lynch law" was demanded by Representative Hill, Republican, of Maryland, in a letter sent to Secre- tary of the Treasury Mellon. Hill de clared Haynes had forfeited his post ''by officially approving a statement from Judge A. J. Curran of Pittsburg, Kan, threatening to burn the homes of convicted mOOnshiners."
 Federal reserve banks would be en- powered to buy and sell farm land bonds under bill introduced recently by Senator Fletcher, Democrat, Flor ida. The measure, designed to pro- vide long term credits for farmers, also would establish farm credits department in each federal land bank.
 An upward trend in the retail cost of food was noted in statistics made public by the bureau of labor statis- tics of the Department of Labor. Re ports from fifteen cities showed in- creases from March 15 to April 15, ranging up to per cent, while only four reported decreases and only one of these, Fall River, with 2 per cent, showing more than one-half of 1 per cent decline.
 The report of the special treasury committee which made an inventory of the supplies and equipment of the bureau of printing and engraving fol. lowing the recent reorganization of the bureaus personnel, is understood to be a substantial vindication of the declaration by treasury officials that no material output of illegal bond, note or stamp issues had taken place within recent years.

Javelle water, which can be made at

in removing stains from white linen
and cotton when more simple methods
fail. Obstinate stains made by clear
coffee and tea, fruits, or ink, for in
stance, will yield to an application Of
this useful liquid.
Javelle water should be applied only
to uncolored cotton or linen materials,
because it bleaches colors and rots silk
or wool. In treating stains with ia
velle water, stretch the stained portion
over a bowl filed with water and APP
ply the javelle water to the stain with
a medicine dropper. Do not allow the
jayele water to remain in contact
with the stain for more than one min
ute. Apply oxalic-acid solution to neu-
tralize the javelle water, and rinse
by dipping the stain in the bowl OF
water,
If allowed to remain too long in con-
tact with the fbers, javelle water rots
even linen and cotton materials, ana
# should. therefore, always be neutral
ICED with oxalic acid and the fabric
rinsed thoroughly to remove all traces
of the chemical For very persistent
stains the javelle water may have 10

neutralized with oxallc-acid solution
after each application.
Prepare jayelle water rs follows
Dissolve one pound Of washing soda
in one quart Of cold water. To this
solution add one pound ce ordinary
bleaching powder calcium hypochlo-
rite). Filter this liquid through a
piece of muslin to remove the sedi-
ment. Keep the clear liquid in tghT
stoppered bottles in dark place.

In Special Bulletin No. AZ, DIR. w. A.
Riley, chief Of the division of en-
tomology, University of Minnesota, di-
vided the methods of combating the
house fly into those directed towards
determination by the prevention OF
breeding and those serving as protec-
ton against the insect. As flies are
horn and reared In filth of all sorts,
the obvious thing to do is to clean up
all manure piles. garbage accumuIa-
tons and slop pools.
However much ones nelghbors
may continue TO breed flies for the
community, this does not render use

Riley.
AS the entire development from egg
TO adult fly may be spanned In eight
or ten days and a new generation
started every II to IA days, It is plain
that every fly killed early means
heavy mortality among the possible
fly population.

ct, galvanized lard can or washboiler,
which win hold enough water to cover
convenient quantity of the product
to be hlanehed, should be provided.
Several kettles will be needed for
blanching, for rinsing after blanching
and other purposes. A teakettle should
be on hand for boiling water, which
is needed from time To time for filling
jars and for renewing the blanching
water.
Sharp-pointed paring-knives are con
yenient for peeling and cutting. Ut is
well to use silver knife for peeling
fruits that are sometimes discolored
by steel). Tablespoons, teaspoons,
measuring cups and spatulas shoule
be at hand. Some means must be pro-
vided for lifting the Jars out of the
boiling water and for keeping them off
the bottom of the boiler during the
processing. This may be tray with
tall handles, or false bottom to the
boiler may be used with some sort of
utensil to lift the jars Many kinds OF
patent holders or filters may be pur-
chased, or a litter may be improvised
at home. A large buttonhook works
well with Jars that have a wire spring
clamp over the top.
Make Work Progress Rapidly.
When canning in large quantities,
such conveniences as strawberry hull
ers, vegetable slicers, apple corers,
cherry pitters, apple parers, food chop
pers, scales and saccharometer to de-
termine sugar density will make the
work progress more rapidly.
If the product to be packed is to be
cooked first, spoons, sleeves and sauce
pans are necessary. tunnels and
packing spoons or flexible metal spat-
ulas or wooden paddles will aid in
filling the jars and in removing air
bubbles.
If the canning is to be done out of
doors, tables OF convenient height,
covered garbage pail and flytraps are
needed. A kerosene stove is convenient
for heating water. All Jars or tins
should be washed, before the work is
begun, and new metal lids, rubber
rings, or sanitary caps provided.
