U, 1MI Work Smarter, Not Harder I Modern Laundry Calls for Scientist X By BERNICE STRAWN KxUbiIob Home ManagemeBt IptcUlUI ;- OrefOB State UBtveriltr WE'VE JUST FINISHED talking to more than 2,000 of you Oregon homemakeri about your laundry problems. You've been telling us laundry isn't a simple matter these days. J We agree it's really a science. Unfortunately, there just wasn't time to answer all of the - questions at these laundry clinics sponsored by the Extension " Service in seven counties. We'll share with you some of the questions which come up over and over again. ? DACRON AND COTTON SHIRTS get yellowish. How can I get them white again? H The brighteners in moat detergents work better on cotton than en Dacron and other polyester fibers. Try one of the " blue all-purpose detergents (not the dishwashing liquids or ", powders). These contain a different brightener which is effec- tjvt on manmade fibers. v Thoroughly dampen the shirts with water, then soak in full strength liquid detergent for It to 20 minutes. Next put them ' Id the washer and launder In hot water. The fabric will be more wrinkled with hot water and re- quire some touch up pressing this time, but you'll only need .. t iteA itita tMflfmnf muibgImmiIIv ThM chlrt mnmv iIia tu '', bleached Jf you wish. Always launder these ahirts in the machine. They'll never come clean with three jiggles up and down in a wash basin. ? HOW CAN I KEEP WHITE NYLONS WHITE? ' Wash white nylons only by themselves, not even with white cottons. Don't try to sneak in a pastel garment. White ' nylon picks up the slightest trace of color. In rare cases, , colored labels on garments have released enough dye to cause discoloration. Check to make sure there are no such labels en your nylons. Either liquid or powdered bleaches can be . used on nylon. ' If nylons are already dingy, you can restore the original whiteness with a color remover. This chemical is available in small packages at drug and variety stores. m a PERSPIRATION ODORS in athletic outfits are hard to get : out. wnat can i ao: Soak for 90 minutes in a deodorant such as you would use lor diapers. There are several products of this type in the mi.ai.1..l TkM tit. 1 - I. ... tn ft, ..... V. ..... U VA times the amount of detergent you usually use. Add hot , water if fabric will stand it and wash. If adding this much detergent ' .uces too many auds, try a low sudsing product ' FOAM RUBBER UPHOLSTERY is durable and comfortable but go easy on removing spots with dry cleaning fluid. Sponge lightly. If the cleaning fluid soaks through the fabric cover . ing, it will cause blistering and swelling of the rubber. Ure thane foam, used in many chairs and sofas today, is not affected by dry cleaning fluids. SAVE TIME DURING SPRING CLEANING. Most of the soil in sheer curtains is loose dust which will tumble out if you put them in an automatic clothes dryer without heat. After 10 minutes they're ready to put back up again. Use this smart, trick in between washings. GREASE SPOTS ON WORK CLOTHES can be discouraged if clothes are rinsed in water containing a fabric softener. This puts a light coating over the fabric which helps shun grease, but don't expect it to be completely grease-proof. Don't confuse this laundry aid with a water softener. OVERDRYING OF CLOTHES in a dryer is a common cause of wrinkling and static electricity in many manmade fabrics. If a garment has an elastic band, don't wait until the elastic is dry before taking it out. By this time, the rest of the gar ment will be overdry. Let the elastic finish drying outside the dryer.
