Church and Dwight, leading figures in the Baking Soda Institute, staged a lively County Fair forothe foods ed itors in which practical demon strations of a score of uses of this househol staple. Here are a few: Baking soda is a safe, ef fective and economical denti frice. Pour soda in palm of hand and use as dentifrice or as mouth wash.Wng one teaspoon" soda in a glass of wateft Flash fires resulting from grease in broilers or spattered grease should be showered with baking soda. Under no circumstances, use water in this emergency. One of the very best applications to allay the pain of superficial scalds' or burns is to quickly make' a paste or a solution of baking soda. Clean linoleum by dissolving two tablespoons baking soda in one quart of warm water and use a small mop r cloth, rins " ing with cloth wrung in clear ' water; helps remove grease and grime quickly. Good idea! Keep a box of bak ing soda in your car not only for ready protection against flash fires, but also for cleaning windshield and headlights on long trips. A .little baking soda end water on cloth will remove crushed bugs and scummy film adhering to surfaces. Baking soda and bicarbonate of soda are one and the same product! Use baking soda for freshing refriger ator, ice trays, meat boxes, crisp er trays, shelves; for glistening glass and crystal, for quickly and thoroughly removing tarnish from silverware. For this just cover bottom of large enameled pan with aluminum foil. Add one teaspoon baking soda to each quart of water. Heat to boiling. Immerse each piece of silver so that e it touches foil. The electrolytic action makes the tarnish disappear. Rinse and dry. Pump Room Menu .
