WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon State University We've just finished talking to more than 2,000 of you Oregon homemakers about your laundry problems. You have been telling us laundry isn't a simple matter these days. We agree it's really a science. Unfortunately, there just wasn't time to answer all of the questions at these laun dry clinics sponsored by the Extension Service in seven counties. We'll share with you some of the questions which come up over and over again. Dacron and cotton shirts get yellowish. How can I get them white again? The brighteners in most de tergents work better on cotton than on Dacron and other polyester fibers. Try one of the blue all-purpose deter gents (not the dishwashing li quids or powders). These con tain a different brightener which is effective on man made fibers. Thoroughly dampen the shirts with water, then soak in full strength liquid deter ment for 15 to 20 minutes. Next put them in the washer and launder in hot water. The fabric will be more wrinkled with hot water and require some touch up press ing this time, but you'll only need to use this treatment occasionally. These shirts may also be bleached if you wish. Always launder these shirts in the machine. They'll never come clean with three jiggles up and down in a wash basin. How can I keep white ny lons white? Wash white nylons only by themselves, not even with white cottons. Don't try to sneak in a pastel garment. White nylon picks up the slightest trace of color. In rare cases, colored labels on garments have released enough dye to cause discolora tion. Check to make sure Scarlet red patent uppers Coming Thursday! MEDFORD SHOPPING CENTER See a fabulous collection of America's favorite fashion shoes there are no such labels on your nylons. Either liquid or powdered bleaches can be used on nylon. If nylons are already dingy, you can restore the original whiteness with a color re mover. This chemical is avail able in small packages at drug and variety stores. Perspiration odors in ath letic outfits are hard to get out. What can I do? Soak for 30 minutes in a deordorant such a you would use for diapers. There are several products of this type in the supermarket. Then put the clothes in the washer with about 1 ' times the amount of detergent you usually use. Add hot water if fabric will stand it and wash. If adding this much detergent produces too many suds, try a low sudsing product.

Here both dill seed and dill pickle juice flavor a hearty beef pot-roast. The re sulting fresh, brisk flavor cer tainly adds pep to your meal. You'll have a penny-pinchers dinner to entice many an appetite. Reba Staggs, noted home economist in the meat field, gives an important clue to pot-roast preparation: Never hurry the cooking. Slow sim mering in a tightly covered, neavy ulensile produces a wonderfully tender, juicy meat aisn. Beef Dill Pot-Roast Three to four-pound beef arm or blade pot-roast; one' fourth cup flour: one table spoon salt; one-fourth tea. spoon pepper; three table spoons lard or drippings; one teaspoon dill seed; one-fourth cup dill pickle juice; one fourth cup water; flour for gravy If desired. Combine flour, salt and pepper. Dredge pot-roast in seasoned flour and brown in lard or drippings. Pour off drippings. Sprinkle dill seed over meat. Add dill pickle juice and water. Cover tightly and cook slowly three to three and one-half hours or until meat is tender. Thicken cooking liquid with flour for gravy, if desired. Six to eight servings.
