cilities, it's a good idea to use
an effective disinfectant along
with your detergent, says
Frances Shoffner, Sussex County
Extension Agent, Home Eco
nomics.
It's also a good idea to use a
disinfectant in your home wash
er, too, especially If there has
been illness in the family.
Among the most effective dis
infectants are pine oil and ordi-
nary liquid chlorine bleach, 1t
was found in recent tests by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
Both Of these disinfectants are
available in super markets. Two
other products also found to be
effective in killing disease-caus-
ing bacteria are quaternary and
phenolic compounds, available at
INDUSTRIAL supply houses.
Miss Shoffner says that a pine
oil disinfectant should contain at
least 30 per cent pine oil. A
product that is primarily a dis
infectant is more economical
than a so-called all-purpose
cleaner which also contains other
ingredients, such as detergent or
whitenerS. 4.
It Is not necessary to use q

other disinfectants, or wash the
garments out by hand ut home,
Miss Shoffner says.

American cattlemen have dis
covered that genuine Charo1ais
have something to offer and they
want more of them. This breed
has gained the respect of top
feeders and Of many discrim-
mating meatpackers as pro-
ducers of lean, meaty and pro-
fitable carcasses. The pure
breds, however, are hard to
come by In North America and
we have what a Farm Quarterly
editor In the Winter issue calls
ga breed In a bind"
Charolais is one of the most
important breeds In France
where 1t originated quite a long
time ago. But the USDA has very
specific prohibitions against i'm
portation of the animals from
Europe because Of endemic foot
and-mouth disease. So the
question is how to get new genes
to improve the strain of the
breed already In this country.
Purebred Charolais cattle are
white and very large. Mature
bulls weigh up to 5000 pounds.
Cows weigh up to 1000 pounds.
They were intr oduced into
Mexico In 1890 and eventually
found their way into the U. S.
Nevertheless, getting breeding
stock from Mexico is no simple
matter, either. Besides the
American he a1th regulations
which must be met, the Mexi-
can government permits no fe-
males Of any breed to be ex-
ported and sets a quota on the
number of bulls that may be
exported. The 1863 quota of
Charolais bulls was 40.
The United States now has
approximately 10000 head OF
purebred Charolais and more
than $1,000 crossbreds. All Of
them have been contributing tc
the m aking of an envtable
reputation for the breed.

The guests were seated in
two rooms for dinner, the
State Dining Room and the
newly refurbished Blue Room,
which is no longer totally
blue and might take on a
new name - the Monroe
Room.
There were two micro
phones that directed the

Following the Presidents
remarks in the State Dining
room. the Vice President rose
to his feet in the Blue Room,
at Mrs. Kennedy's table.
"It is with some appre-

the basis for filing of a dis

Although no legislative bust
ness was transacted the House
formally received a bill that
would give subpoena powers to

civil rights bill out Of the Rules
Committee.
Such a petition would re-
