Mrs. America can be certain of
obtaining useful and well-wear
ing types of blankets despite the
war production board conservation
order reducing the variety and
sizes of cotton, rayon and wool
covers. No blankets will be made
longer than 84 inches except white
cotton sheet blankets which are
limited to 95 inches in length,
.
Each line of blankets also is lim-
ited to no more than four colors
plus white and the multi-colored
blankets are restricted to combina
tions which do not take more than
four colors plus white. Before the
order, a single line had as many
as 15 different colors. It is ex
pected that the number of blank
ets produced will be increased by
the material savings of the con-
servation order.
Look , for a larger number of
fruits, vegetables, juices, meats,
fish and dairy products to be com-
merciall'y packed in glass for ci-
vilians this year. This is because
the war production board has al-
lotted sufficient metal and rub
ber for closures for the addition
al glass containers.
To take that stitch in time Mrs.
America should not have dif
ficulty in buying ordinary cotton
sewing thread. But here’s what’s
in store for Mrs. America’s sew
ing basket. Deeper colors of
thread may be somewhat less
abundant because of restrictions
on dyestuffs. Although silk sew
ing thread has not been produced
for some time, rayon thread still
is being made. And needles will
have a special place in the sew-
ing basket for these as well as
pins for household use are scarce.
However, buy needles and pins
While many housewives are pre-
paring to put winter woolens away
for the warmer months, tips from
the department of agriculture bu
reau of human nutrition and home
economics come in pretty handy.
A copy of “Take Care of the
Wool You Have,” which bells
how to clean, wash, press, mend
and store wool, may be obtained
from the department of agricul-
ture, Washington, D. C., and it’s
helpful advice in these days when
conservation of woolens is a war
time duty. Here are directions
for storing winter wool': first,

Used washing machines have be
come eo valuable since production
of new models stopped that the
OPA has set a dollars and cents
maximum prices on all sales of
used washers by individuals and
dealers alike. The regulation,
which became effective May 3, al
so sets a ceiling on rental charges
of used washing machines. The
new price ceilings should eliminate
any excessive prices which might
be asked because of a heavy de
mand for this scarce equipment.
The regulation establishes a ceil
ing price on guaranteed machines
at March 1942 levels and at Oc-
tober levels on machines sold “as
is.” Every used washing machine,
whether sold by a dealer or an in
dividual, must have a tag showing
its classification and the maxi-
mum selling price.
The carriage trade will be serv-
ed despite mileage rationing, just
as long as it’s Mrs. America’s jun
ior. For the WPB has allowed the
production of baby carriages to be
increased to match the demands of
the war. Strollers, baby walkers
and sulkies also are permitted to
be manufactured by June 30.

As there has been considerable
confusion as to the handling of
lu.alid ration stamps such as A, B
and C, or the blue processed food
stamps, the OPA has suggested
procedure,
The
the
proper
suggestion is that each store set
up a box or sack near the cash
register and mark this container
“invalid stamp box. »» 1 When the
customer presents his ration book
for merchandise and if the re
tailer finds it necessary to tear
expired stamps from the book be
fore tearing out valid stamps, the
OPA suggests that he ask the con
sumer if he would like to deposit
these invalid stamps in the con
tainer.
The OPA says these stamps
should be surrendered to the dis
trict office or to the board in the
retailer’s area twice a month, as
it is against regulations to destroy
stamps or ration certificates of
any nature.
