any traces of the stain remain,
they may be treated by rubbing
glycerine or soapless shampoo into
the stain, then sponging with cold
water. Sometimes it helps to ap-
ply a few drops of vinegar to the
stain after the glycerine or sham
poo treatment, rinsing thoroughly
afterward with cool water. Never
use soap or heat until the stain has
disappeared.

Delaware Farm Production
Approaches New Highs

Despite unfavorable weather
conditions, the 1850 production of
most Delaware crops and livestock
products is good, according to DR..
r. o. Bausman, Head of the Agri-
cultural Economics Department at
the University of Delaware.
Fluid milk production during
the first six months of 1850 ex-
ceeded that for the corresponding
period of 1949. The 1850 produc-
tion may exceed the all-time high
1949 production of 1S1 million
pounds.
Egg production in 1850 is cur
rently exceeding the 1949 output.
The 1850 production may exceed
the 1949 record of 141 million eggs.
Broiler production during the
first six months of 1850 was only
slightly below that for the cores
ponding period of 1949. With fav-
orable price conditions, the 1850
production may approach the 1945
record of 73 million birds.
The 1850 tomato crop of 10000
acres is about ten per cent larger
than the ten-year average, and the
! condition of that crop is excellent.
The $4,000 acres of lima beans
reported for 1850 is the second
largest acreage on record, and the
condition of the crop is good. Del
aware produces the largest acre
age of lima beans of any state in
the country with the exception OF

Bleaching Hints Given
HOmemakers

Though sunshine is one of the
best and safest bleaches for white
clothes after laundering, and
though it often fades colors, it may
have just the opposite effect on
some common stains, cautions Miss
Ruth E. Pearce, Extension Cloth
ing Specialist of the University of
Delaware.
The heat of strong summer sun
may set and darken stains contain
ing tannin, such as those from
cherries, peaches, pears, plumbs,
soft drinks, or mustard, she warns.

All Foods Handbook
Published at u. of ID.

A new bulletin called, 'The Main
Meal of the Day." has just been
published by the University of Del
aware Agricultural Extension Ser
vice. The publication is a hand
book written especially for use
with All Club groups by Miss M.
Gertrude Holloway, State Home
Demonstration Leader.
Beginning with a guide to good
eating, and plans for the main meal
of the day, the booklet gives re-
cipes and pointers on meal prepar-
alton of interest to all who cook.
1T deals with meats, fish, vege-
tables, salads, and desserts.
A special section of the bulletin
discusses serving the main meal,
and table setting. Illustrations
show the proper arrangement of
serving dishes, as well as seating
order.
The advanced All Foods Unit,
for which the booklet was written,
can be taken by club members who
are at least twelve years old, and
who have completed Units No. /
and No. 2.
''This unit" says the foreword,
"gets into menu planning and some
of the elementary principles of nu-

California.
The 1850 production of fresh
market vegetables and of grains
are expected to be about the same
as those of 1949.
However" says DR.. Bausman,
"a high level of production does
not assure good economic condi-
tions for farmers. Although prices
of some farm commodities have
braced in recent weeks, in general,
prices received by Delaware farm
ers have fallen by about 20 per
cent during the past two years,
whereas prices of things farmers
buy have remained near the post

not being able to finish off his

looking for Mrs. Rutledge who

dispatched to the scene along with

part of Julia Rutledge, ex-wife of
Searcey Rutledge, 40, Of 661
Randolph st, alleged killer of his
former wife's boy friend Albert
A. Carey on the night of March
%, at his rooming house, 60
Louis ST., saved her from being
the second victim.
In an exclusive interview of a
high ranking police official, the
EXPRESS learned some import
ant factors in the latest west side
killing. 1t was explained how
We're on the scene of the killing
and how he was captured SO soon
and SO near the scene of the
crime. According to the official,
Rutledge borrowed the shot gun
used in the killing from a friend
of his and after getting the gun
told him what he was going to do
with it. 1t was the impression of
the police that after learning the
purpose of the 'loan Of the gun"
the police were notified of the
purpose and told where the pro-
posed killing was to be.
According tothe story told this
reporter, Rutledge drove to the
rooming house of his victim, ask
ed the land lady for his ex-wife
and then told her to "bring Carey
outside" after asking Carey if he
knew him and if he knew of the
relationship between him and his
ex-wife, pulled the gun from un-
der his coat and fired a blast in
to Carey's abdomen, were he died
upon arrival at the hospital.

By Arnold Braithwaite

April 9Th has been designated
as the day on which the petition
for a municipal income tax will
receive a public hearing.
The hearing as presented in the
rest of the-Dayton press is a
mere formality. The commission
will hear arguments, if any, and
then reject the petition on the
grounds that if they approved of
a tax it will be. declared uncon-
stitutinonal under state law.
The petitioners will then solicit
an additional Is per cent Of the
the signatures of registered Day
ton voters in order to gain a
referendum on the income tax.
To read other papers it would
appear that the municipal income
tax is a necessity that 100 per
cent Of Dayton's citizens have
reached agreement on.
Now on one is foolish enough
to assert that the hiring of even
thesfew Negroes who~were hired
WIN the tax went into effect last
var does not represent a distinct
gain. 1t was. And SO were the
slightly improved garbage and
trash collection services which
were put in operation. Any in
roads that we can make we should
grasp and make the most of, for
they are few enough.
But Dayton Negroes have long
been accustomed to a more or less
scurvy treatment at the hands of
local authorities. For instance,
west siders yer wooed when they
wanted to float some bond issues
here several years ago. Concrete
promises were made that certain
benefits would accrue to west
siders. Only last year when a
