Composition Of Several
Kinds of Common Bluinq

Billings differ in composition ais well
as in form, says the United States
Department Of Agriculture. The COM
moneSt bluings are prussian blue,
aniline, and ultramarine. Indigo is
now rarely used. Bluings In solution
color fabrics more evenly than does
bluing that is merely in suspension.
Prussian blue is an inexpensive solu-
BILE salt Of iron. 1t is easily decom-
posed by soap and If clothes are not
thoroughly rinsed, iron-rust stains
may appear on them when ironed. Blu
ing can be tested by adding strong
soapsuds; if the color changes from
blue to yellow, iron is present.
Aniline blues are also soluble In
water and are probably the most salts
factory. Ultramarine is not very sol
uble. 1t Is sold In balls or cubes.
When used, the water must be kept
well stirred to prevent the bluing from
spotting or streaking the clothes. The
balls or cubes wrapped In heavy mus
lin or flannel so that only the very
finest particles may pass through,
should be soaked in a bowl Of water,
and the blue liquid added to the
water for rinsing and bluing the
clothes.

Recipe for a Reliable
Frosting Is Outlined

The United States Department of
Agriculture gives the following recipe
for a reliable frosting, worked out In
the experimental Kitchen Of the bu-
feau Of home economics:
Place the white of an egg, a cupful
OF sugar and four tablespoonful of
cold water in a double boiler over a
Tow fire, and beat until it stiffens
enough to hold shape. Then add a
pinch of salt and beat until thick
enough to spread. Add one teaspoon
full OF vanilla or other fiavoring.
Chocolate fiavoring may be made by
melting two and one-half squares Of
unsweetened chocolate and pouring
into the mixture when 1t has stiffened
enough to hold shape; then cook I'M
til thick, and spread. For caramel
icing caramelize two or three table
spoonfuls of sugar until dark in color,
and add an equal amount Of boiling
water. Substitute two teaspoonfuls of
this strip for two teaspoonfuls Of the
water in the frosting recipe, and con-
tinue according to the above direc-
lions.

others, the white sweater is most be-

The last word In style and beauty
is sweater Of crocheted handmade
heavy silk floss. This type was first
shown in the tuxedo shape with revers

gradually this model has been
changed, and the one-piece slip-on is
the newest and most fashionable. 1t
is popular with the woman Of slender
figure and straight silhouette.
CurioUsly enough, while the sweater
has become so thoroughly American
lied that we think of it as peculiarly
our own, the handsomest Of these

in butter, then cover with sweet milk
and bake for several hours in mod
crate oven. The milk with the flour
will form gravy. Serve with mashed
potatoes.
Potato Salad.
Cook the potatoes in their jackets.
When done remove the skins, cut in
cubes, small enough to thoroughly sea-
SON. Marinate with three tablespoon
fuls of oil and one of vinegar let
stand for an hour or more. When pre-
pairing the potatoes add a minced
onion, and one good-sized cucumber
with a eupful OF minced celery. Lack
ing the celery, dust with celery salt.
Take three tablespoonfuls of highly
seasoned salad dressing, add one cup
full of whipped cream and mix with
the salad, adding salt and cayenne
as needed. The secret of good POI
tato salad is allowing the potato to
stand long enough with the season
ings to become seasoned through.
