Why Wash Dishes!

Why do we wash dishes? The OBJ
vious answer is:-''To clean them,'
but do we really accomplish this? Does
.'clean dishes" merely mean those from
which grease and particles of food have
been washes? No matter how carefully
they are wiped. unrinsed dishes have
dirty, soapy water dried onto them.
Rinsing removes this water and is
considered sufficient. 1t is but the
temperature of this rinsing water is
all-important. When it is realized
that spoons, forks. and tumbler edges
come in direct contact with the mouth,
and that the mouth is one of the sources
of infection from the body. it is quite
clear that ''scalding" is more
appropriate term than ''rinsing
Time is saved by scaldng dishes and

dried out of scalding water does not

Cattle receipts at Kansas City have
shown deceases the past two weeks
and more active demand with
somewhat higher market. We look
for gradual raise in prices upon
steers as well as fat cows and heifers
with continued light runs. Then cows
are still sluggish. These conditions
with the best railroad service in years
makes Kansas City a favorable market
for Colorado cattle during October and
November.
