HOW HARD IS HARD-BOILED?

If a dark, rather greeish ring forms around the
yolk when you cook hard-boiled eggs, try cooking
then below the boiling point and then, soon as
they done, putting them in cold water.
That, according to the Bureau of Home Economics,
will do away with the unappetizinglooking ring,
ports the Consumers Counsel Dv sion of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Also, it's good to remember
ones.
Because the she'll OF the egg sticks to the white,
it is sic the egg is fresh. Bureau of Home E.
economies experts tested this theory with fresh,
storage and old eggs and found it didn't hold up.
The best guarantee of fresh eggs is to buy those
that goverment-graded with the date of grading
stamped on the label.

SPRING IS HERE

Spring is here,
The gentle zephyrs blow,
The green earth is so dear,
To us poor mortals below.
Singing birds are free from care,
Days are light and gay,
Girls don new chapea,M,
Boys stroll down the way.
Winter blasts are of the past,
Laughter is in the air,
Bountiful things are here at last,
Life S so bright and fair.
So do away with gloomy faces,
Cares are not for spring;
Laughter, singing, joy at lastI
opring, spring, springI

When the baby spills the spinach the dining
chairs, whip up pan of suds and Tara water. T.a1
is the advice Of the Bureau of Home Economics.
Wake thick suds of mild neutral soap, using as
little water possible" say these experts.
"Then go over the leather with the suds, wiping
off every trace of soap with damp cloth. The last
step is to dry and polish the surface with soft
dry cloth.
"Remember never to use furniture polish, furni-
ture oil, varnish leather. The danger with
these is that many contain solvents which will soft
the finish on the leather and make it sticky"
