Dry jackets and blouses on hang
ers. Some jackets may be hung
by the hem but generally they'll
have fewer wrinkles if allowed to
dry on a hanger.
Dry dresses on rust-proof hang
ers or hang on the line by should
ers at side seams. Hang skirts
and pants by the waist band. Miss
Whitcomb says you'll find that
pants dried on pants stretchers
require little or no pressing.
Towels and pillowcases will
blow free from wrinkles and
creases if they're hung about one
third over the line. Hang pillow
cases with hem or open end down.
You can even save ironing time
with sheets if when you hang
them out to dry-you fold the
hens together with the right side
out. Place hem edges about five
inches over the line. Pin at each
end and in the center to hold
sheets straight. Straighten sell
wage edges with your fingers.

Your Ironing Jobs
Begin On the Line

It's not on the ironing board
that ironing begins. Your clothes
line is the starting point.
The way you hang clothes on
the line can simplify your ironing
procedure, says Miss Louise Whit
comb, home management special
ist at the University of Delaware.
Hang all garments on the line
by their strongest points. For
example, hang shirts and pajama
tops with the tail several inches
over the line. Pin at side seams
and at center front to hold shirt
front closed and to dry it straight

Kent Home DOings
BY: Charlotte L. Swanson Home Demonstration Agent

of Home Economics Extension in
the Philippines. Each of these
speakers brought a special and in
spirational message to the 1000
delegates. However, the most
widely-known speaker was DR..
Norman Vincent Peale, author of
many fine books, who spoke at
the banquet on Thursday evening.
1 won't attempt to summarize
these speeches-you will hear re-
ports at Achievement Day.
1t is interesting to note that
the registration of more than
1000 homemakers from all parts
of the United States made this
the largest meeting of the Ma
tional Home Demonstration Coun-
Gil and also the largest conven-
ton ever held in the Washington
Statler Hotel. Delaware's attend
ance was approximately fifty wo-
men. Those from Kent County
were Mrs. Earl Hurd and Mrs.
Kurt Schettler, Clayton; Mrs.
Mildred Hall, Leipsic; Mrs. HON.
er Moore, Mrs. William Warren,
Mrs. william H. Sterling, Dover;
Mrs. Martha Campbell, Hartly;
Mrs. Helen Lynn, Milford; Mrs.
Fred Fifer, Wyoming; and the
Kent County Home Demonstra-
ton Agent. Those who were at
tending their first National meet
ing and those who had attended
several previous meetings all re-
turned home with inspirations
which they will pass along to
their friends.

Mechanical
Treatments

De cOnSlQereQ. Iney lncIuue ralnIau,
soil, slope and present vegetation. Rain
fall is considered from the standpoint
of total amount, time of year, intensity
and duration of storms. Soils must
be considered for depth, texture, per-
meability, alkalinity and sub-surface
wetneSS.
Slopes affect the intensity of mechan-
ical treatment and design of structures
as well as uniformity of grazing. Pres
ent vegetation is considered in PLAN
ming any treatment All mechanical
treatment must be accompanied by
grazing management to encourage pc
rennial native or seeded grasses to &C.
cupy barred areas and to increase.
Success in seeding is obtained by
thorough preparation of the soil and by
drilling the seed at uniform depth.
Broadcast seedlings on unprepared
ground give spotty establishment at
best. Discing, drilling and packing the
soil will give the best results on native
rangeland. Mixtures of native grasses
will produce the most lasting stands of
grass. introduced grasses seeded on
native range land are slowly replaced
by native species.
Practical Treatments
FITTING has produced the best re-
suits on loamy soils of gentle relief
having considerable amounts of west
ern wheatgrass already present, and
not much sagebrush. In heavy sage
brush, the sagebrush usually responds
faster to pitting than does the grass.
FURROWING is similar to pitting in
cost and effect when properly applied.
Much has been learned since the 1905
about proper spacing and size of range
contour-furrows. In general, it has been
learned that they must be spaced much
more closely than was first supposed
adequate.
WATER SPREADING is a means of
diverting water from drainageways to
divert the surplus water to usefulness.
and erosion control devices. 1t is usu-
ally limited to the deeper soils on gen.
tie slopes that would be suitable for
tame crops except for isolation or lack
of sufficient water.
CLEARING of sagebrush, willows.
crossword and similar low shrubs is
practical on lands of good quality and
ability to produce
Erosion Hazards
Sandy and shallow soils are not suit
able for mechanical treatment of the
types discussed because of erosion haz-
zard on the sands and inability of the
shallow land to produce growth suffi-
clent to warrant expense of treatment.
Mechanical treatment alone is not
successful. 1t must be accompanied
and followed by management of graz
ing. Treatment removes some vegeta-
ton and disturbs some that remains:
1t leaves freshly barred soil to puddle
and erode. During this time, any graz
ing at all is harmful. The resting pc
Rod should last until the fall following
treatment, when light grazing is de-
sirable
A second resting period during the
next growing season is necessary to
establish the new seedlings that have
developed from the previous years

Eisenhower Saws
Peace Does Not
Mean Yielding

WASHINGTON R-President Ell
senhower said today the hope of
the world lies in peaceful cock
istence with the Communists, but
declared: II will not be party to
any agreement that makes any
body a slave" 4
In news conference, the Pres
ident endorsed broadly the con-
cept of peaceful coexistence-
stressed by British Prime Minister
Churchill in their talks which
closed here yesterday. But Eisen-
hover said this approach must not
mean appeasement3 and it must
mean that no nation in the world
should be subordinated to an out
side power.
Within these bounds, the Presi-
dent said, the hope of the world
lies in peaceable coexistence. The
nations of the world must find
ways of living together, he said.
Eisenhower's remarks were
touched off by questions about his
talks with Churchill. One raised the
possibility of whether the United
States, as a result of the talks,
might 60 along with a partition of
Vietnam which would leave the
northern part in Communist hands.
The President told reporters with
emphasis-permitting direct quota
tiOr-that II will not be a party
to any agreement that makes any
body a slave and that's all there
is to it,"
Eisenhower defended Vice Pres
ldent Nixon when asked about a
speech Nixon had made last week
end to the effect that the foreign
policy of former Secretary of State
Dean Acheson was responsible lor
the loss of China, Korea and led
to the crisis in Indochina.

1909 storm was the first in many
years, he pointed out, and it was
ten days before the damage could
be repaired and service completely
restored.
Rewarding Years
1t has been a pretty rewardlng
is years, Mesa stated. and he has
particularly enjoyed working with
such men as Merville Rosam, gen.
eral manager of the system and
R. C. Virgin, superintendent of the
line department.
He did allow today as how when
he retires, he may dig up few
of his old golfing cronies including
Willie Watkins, Hartley Albury and
B. L. Grooms, and bat a few balls
around.
Being connected with public
utility, Mr., Mesa has had the OPP
portunity to keep his finger on the
pulse of the city's growth from the
days when it was busting cigar
and sponging center, through the
dark depression days to its pres
ent boom status.
AS he says: cts going to be
tough to stay idle.
He probably won't stay idle.

Urey of the University of Chicago's
Institute of Nuclear Studies, said it
was "a grand sight"
Television audiences across the
country watched the total eclipse
on programs fed to networks by
Twin Cities stations. Television
films made from planes were seen
later in the day.
Weather conditions were greatly
varied around the country where
the eclipse was partial. Skies were
clear at Kansas City, cloudy at
Detroit, clear at Chicago and over
cast in Rhode Island. There was
drizzle at Pittsburgh at the time
of partial eclipse and rain fell
throughout Connecticut.
Two Dawns Al Cleveland
At Cleveland, the eclipse
amounted to two dawns because of
rain and an overcast, then a clear
ing. There were clouds over most
of New England, but partial
eclipse could be seen from time
to time.
Scientists hope observations be-
ing made at various eheckpoints
along the path of the eclipse will
give them more accurate measure
ments of distances along the
earth's surface-the exact width
of the Atlantic ocean, for example.
These measurements, together
with others to be made in the fu-
ture, also may help determine
whether-as some scientists believe
continents are moving, relative
to each other.
Observations also may reveal
more accurate information about

program as it now stands and that
the Treasury cannot stand any fur
Their revenue loss at this time.
But some Democrats contend
most of the benefits would go to
the wealthy and the big corpora
tons. They say a general tax cut
should be written in, both as a
matter of fairness and to boost
mass purchasing power.
Sen. Douglas (D-Ill) argued yes
terday that the average taxpay-
ing family would get only SIP a
year in relief under the bill as
written.
In contrast to this, Douglas
claimed, 100000 families who own
80 per cent of all the stock in the
nation would save an average of
more than 81 500 apiece under one
provision aimed at giving relief to
shareholders on dividend income.
The Democratic amendment also
calls for elimination of the divi-
dend income relief section. One
aim of a Republican substitute
would be to save that provision.
Both sides planned to have their
full membership or hand for the
test. There are 48 Republicans, Al
Democrats and l independent in
the Senate.
The balance of power appeared
to be held by a bloc of COP SEN
ators known to be unhappy about

sion in the bill without some off
