All starched pieces should i'm
mediately be hung TO dry, other
wise they may begin 70 mould,
especially in very hot weather.
And here are some important
points 10 note of the relation be-
tween good starching and good
drying: drying should not be long
drawn out, as hanging the clothes
out on a damp day which only
dilutes the starch and makes the
garment limp instead Of crisp;
again, if the garment is not
wrung very dry before hanging
out. the time will be too pro-
lOnged and the result fail in
pleasing stiffness; too strong "A
wind drys too quickly and makes
the article like A board, starched
clothes should not be frozen on

low a sunny day with brisk but
gentle winds.
Why do starched clothes so
frequently stick while being
ironed? There are several rea-
sons, the most common being
that the starch mixture has not
been sufficiently well cooked or
IL may have Jumps owing to
casual straining; or there may
be too much starch in the gar
mcnt; last, it may be that the
IRON is not sufficiently hot.
And here We have whole
chapter: the need for a very hot
iron 20 properly cool" the
starch, but not scorch it into the
fabric. Even though the starch
mix and its attendant steps have
been perfectly completed, the last
final ana mostimpOrtant step is
the hot iron which will cook"

keeping the starch closely COW

still hot.
This is the basic starch into
which the previously washed and
r!nscd articles are 20 be dipped.
But Just mere dipping is not suf-
ficient: TO really starch a piece,
Il must be completely immersed
in the starch mix. and pressed
firmly with both hands SO that
the starch is forced through all
the pores Of the textile evenly.
1t may be necessary 20 wait a
few minutes until the starch has
cooled. TO make handling easier.
In every case the piece should
have been thoroughly washed
and thoroughly rinsed from all
soap, turned inside out If a
shaped garment, and freshly
rinsed before placing into the
starch mix.
There should be plenty Of
starch mix 10 allow even dis
tribution all over the article And
it is important to remember that
heavier materials require less
starch than lgtt weight goods.
Naturally, the more pieces
dipped into the basic starch max,
the more water is added as each
piece IS wrung from the starch.
That is, one should put in flrst
