Specialist Advises
How to Wash Clothes
Madison, Wis. (U.R) A Uni
versity of Wisconsin home man
agement specialist suggests that
housewives follow a "recipe"
when they do the family wash.
Katherine Bailey said a reg
ular program on wash days will
result in cleaner clothes and a
saving of time and money.
Start with soft water. Both
hot and cold water must be soft
if the clothes are to be thorough
ly rinsed. Mrs. Bailey suggested
using a powdered softener be
fore adding the soap, in case you
don't have a mechanical soft
ener. Then she suggested adding
Va cup of soap or synthetic de
tergent to the washer. The wash
er should be run for a few min
utes. If it doesn't churn up about
two inches of suds, you don't
have enough soap.
But she warned against too
much soap. A surplus "cushions"
the clothes and keeps them from
getting clean.
Roast beef can be kept safely
in the refrigerator for several
days, if the beef is separated
from broth and gravy, according
to experts. Frankfurters and bo
logna keep longer unsliced.

Home Economist
Gives Technique
For Doing Dishes
Carbondale, 111. (U.R) No
wonder those dishpan hands
A home economist at Southern
Illinois University estimates that
on the basis of an . eight-hour
work day the average housewife
spends 6V2 years of her life
washing dishes.
In an effort to lessen this "sen
tence" Mrs. Agnes Ridley has
worked out these time-savers.
Clear the table by stacking
dishes on a tray in groups to be
taken to the right side of the
sink, rinsed and placed in
washing order. Silverware is
placed in a glass of warm water
to remove food particles.
The SIU home economist ap
proves of the double sink with
a left side' deep enough for
dishes placed in a rack to be im
mersed completely or to hold a
pan or hot water for the same
purpose.
"Dishes left sitting for a while
in hot water have fewer bacteria
than those rinsed with poured,
sprayed or running hot water,"
she said.
Mrs. Ridley has refined the
dishwashing art right down to
the duties of each hand.
For example:
First to be washed are the
glasses transferred to the wash
water with both hands. The left
holds the last glass carried over
and the right starts the washing
brush going with a circular
motion.
The silver is taken from the
glass of hot water, held in the
left hand and washed with the
brush. As the next erouD of
dishes are placed in the washing
water with the right hand, the
left puts the cleaned ones into
the rinse water.
