WORK SMARTER
NOT HARDER
By BERNICE STRAWN

More leisure time (or to
day's homemakers that's
what some people say. But
many of the women we know
don't agree. "What leisure?"
asked a mother of two lively
pre-schoolers.
True, there is less manual
labor for homemakers today,
but time is still pressing for
young mothers and women
who work outside the home.
There's much more to know
now, more to decide, more to
manage, if you're going to
keep a smooth-running home.
And what aboul all the com
munity organizations! They
take time too.
Being an up-to-date con
summer is no small matter
when you face the fact that
half the products on the groc
ery shelf weren't there a few
years ago.
Take detergents, for in
stance. You'll find from 50 to
100 different brands and pack
age sizes on the market
shelves. One of the newest
is the detergent tablet, some
times lightly called "elephant
aspirin." What about the
price, we are asked. And do
they get clothes clean?
First, the cost. Ounce for
ounce, these ready-measured
products will cost you a few
pennies more than the granu
lar product. But since some
women waste detergent by
not measuring, they may end
up at about (he same price
per wash load in the long run.
There are also homemakers
who use too little granular
detergent and are disappoint
ed in their results. A pre-
measured product will help
get the right amount and bet
ter results. As for getting
clothes clean, the tablets do

At this time of year we get
calls about window cleaning
after a season of lawn spray
ing. Water spots due to min
erals seem to have "squatters
rights.
There is no one answer, be
cause it all depends on which
minerals are in your water.
Sometimes the glass is actual
ly etched and the only solu
tion is to replace it. Perhaps
one of these ideas will work
for you.
First, we 11 assume you ve
already tried the standby
remedies - ammonia, vinegar,
or commercial window clean
ers. Next, try powdered water
softener or conditioner the
kind that doesn't form a scum.
Don't use any other cleaner
with it. If this fails, sprinkle
a little rust reiriover powder
on a wet cloth and apply a
little elbow grease. You'll find
several brands of rust remov
ers in shaker cans in super
markets. Some people have
successfully cleaned these
mineral deposits with kero
sene and water. Happy ex
perimenting! Smart Homemakera Tell
Ui:
To clean narrow neck vases
which can't be washed with a
dishcloth or bottle brush, give
this Idea a whirl. Put a few
grains of raw rice in the vase
with warm suds and shake
well. The friction will loosen
the soil. Do this twice. Empty
and rinse. Finally, "sweeten"
it with a little baking soda
in the rinse water.
If a zipper gels stubborn,
rub it with a bar of soap. This
lubricates the track, makes
fastener glide smoothly.
