" : Never use ammonia or am monia compounds or any oth er strong alkali such as floor cleaners on rugs and carpets. Ammonia and other strong alkalies can cause bleeding of the dye and damage to the wool fiber. - . ' Remember not to use soap on rugs. Some homemakers like to make a heavy suds in warm water and use this as a rug : cleaner; however soap leaves a film which attracts fresh dirt, Rugs that have been cleaned with soap resoil very quickly. If something is spilled on the rug or carpet ing, ' a detergent should be used instead of a soap. Don't beat rugs. The old fashioned rug beater may break the backing of your rug. Shaking or snapping small rugs many times has the same effect. A number of rug cleaners, both dry and foam type, are available for home use. Be sure that you follow direc tions carefully on the pack age. In some instances a pro fessional rug cleaner is need ed to do a thorough job and remove all the stains. ' ; For other helps with your spring-housecleaning, ask for the booklet "Floors and Their Care," PNW Bulletin No. 10, at the Jackson County Exten sion, service, or call SPring 3-6211, extension 211 and re quest that a copy be mailed to you.
