REMOVING LIME

The lime which forms in the pitcher
or glass after water has been stand
ing in it may be removed without fric-
ton by the aid of lemon juice. Fill
the pitcher with enough water and
lemon juice mixture to rise above the
white deposit, and allow it ito stand
for one or two days. CA couple of
dried lemons which cannot be used
for cooking serve the purpose very
well) Vinegar may also be used. Mu-
Ratio acid from the drug store is
most effective.

Temperature Makes Difference

emperaIuFe MAKES DITTerenCe
The temperature of water makes a
difference in the ease of washing bak-
ing dishes. Dishes which have con-
tanned eggs or starchy foods are more
easily cleaned when they are soaked
in cold water first. Hot water causes
the egg to adhere to the sides of the
dish, and starchy foods are made
gluey. Saucepans or kettles which
have been used for sugar syrup are
more easily cleaned by soaking them
in warm water. 1t is we'll to boil up
kettles which have contained fats
with water and soap powder. If this
is done, the kettle must be rinsed well
afterwards. Salsoda water may be
used to remove the Drowned portion
so often found in baking dishes. En-.
amel ware may be cleaned with the
eteel-soap device.

Farm tenantry is one of the favorite subjects of

itself tne farm tenantry situation doesn't look very
good.
But there is another way of regarding it by which
it appears Eetted advantage T. at is when it is set
alongside the renting situation in the cities.
The latest available official show that 1871 per cent
cf farms rented Figures of the date show
that Col per cent of the homes in sixyeght cities of
