SAVING CLOTHES
BOTH PATRIOTIC
AND PROFITABLE
It is patriotic, profitable, and real
ly "the thing to do" these days
doing everything you can to make
your present wardrobe last as long
as possible, says Miss Lucy R. Lane,
specialist in clothing and textiles at
Oregon State college.
When plenty of materials were
available to ge t new garment's when
ever one's whim dictated, or pocket
book permitted, clothing conserva
tion methods were not :;o important,
but all that is charged now, she
says. Here are some oi" her sugges
tions, some new and some old, for
making clothing last and retain its
good looks.
Rayon .hose now on the market
need special vii::h
3ng car;
because
rayon becomes weak when wut. Lay
these on a towel to dry and never
put them on until thoroughly dry.
As this may take longer than just
overnight, extra pairs to change to
are an economy. Stockings of any
kind last longer when put on the
right way, which means rolling them
from top to toe before putting them
on.
Shoes will last longer if worn only
for occasions for which each pair is
suited, which means sturdy shoes
for work and play, and dressy shoes
only for dressy occasions. Shoe trees
are more than ever needed now,
while quick repair means longer life.
Wool clothes are far too valuable
o be used as moth feed. If not al
ready stored with moth -protecting
flakes or other materials, it is best
tr get them out in the sunshine ev
ery so often and give them a good
brushing. Moths particularly like
soiled wool and are sure to pick out
a grease spot or soiled collar if pos
sible. Thin scarves worn around
the neck are not as necessary for
warmth as they are to. save a coat
from collar smudge.
Sweaters are best put away fold
ed in a drawer rather than on
hangers. Carelessness in pulling
them on. and overloading of pockets
u'ls them out of shape. Gentle
washing in lukewarm water and
mild soap, with thorough rinsing,
e.'e essential.
Apple Marketing
Trends Shown by OSC
Whenever national production of
apples has amounted to more than
0 million bushels in normal times,
American apple growers have had
serious marketing difficulties. Such
difficulties have usually affected the
Pacific coast growers more than
others because apples are grown in
nearly every state in the union,
hence those farthest, from market
are at a disadvantage.
These and many other facts are
recounted in a review of marketing
problems of northwestern apples
from 1020 to 19-10, by Dr. Joseph W.
Allison of the department of history
at, Oregon State college. The re
view was minted in an issue of
Agricultural History earlier this
year.
All of the reciprocal trade agree
ments negotiated by thisv country
have favored apples. Dr. Ellison
rjo'nts out. Agricultural exports to
1G signatory countries were 40 per
c?nt greatr-r in 1037 than in 1035,
while shiisments to countries with
out trade agreements declined 4 per
cent during the same period, says
the author. No attempt to forecast
or recommend future policies is
made in the review, the article be
ing confined entirely to a recording
of past events.
Army Reserve Quota
Zcl at High Figure
Oregon State -College This insti
tution has been assigned a definite
quota of 1037 as the number possible
to enroll this fall in the enlisted re
serve corps of the army. The quota,
bicher tbn first estimated, is divid
ed to rcrmit 313 freshman enroll
ment-, 2-M r ophomorc:,
jumois,
and 209 seniors.
Representatives of the correspond
ing naval reserve programs have
previously announced that the r.a ry
Vjll match th? a-my figures, which
would provide for a possible total
enlistment here of 2054. men. Col
lege officials believe that this will
be an ample number to care for
the physically fit men students who
choose this type of combined college
military training.
