county dairy committee have
agreed to help get good grade
dairy heifers for 4-H members
wanting to join a livestock club.
Many dairymen have a sur
plus of dairy calves during the
fall and winter just when the
4-H clubs are starting.
By raising but one of these
calves a youngster can gain in
experience and capital thereby
laying the groundwork for ob-
taming other animals.
Are your hous'cleaning tasks
distasteful to you? Here are a
few suggestions from Frances L.
Gallatin, home agent, to help
make the homemaker’s cleaning
tasks more pleansant.
Try waxing your dust bin. Dust
will slide off more easily.
Us« a basket or handled box
for cleaning supplies, brushes
and cloths to save steps as you
move from room to room.
When sewing, plan to devot
several uninterrupted hours to
th« job.
Fasten a paper or cloth bag
to the ‘'delivering” end of th?
food chopper to catch bread and
cracker crumbs. It saves sweep,
ing the floor later.
Encourage neatness bv keep
ing a waste basket in each room
Then empty the baskets into a
large grocery sack carried from
room to room and then to the
trash burner. This is a real step-
saver.
La be I all containers in use. A
china marking pencil works well
on most surfaces.
Left-over pieces of linoleum
come in handy for covering sup
board shelves. It is colorful, easy
to clean, and is not easily marked
or scratched.
Remember to schedule shqrt
rest periods for yourself during
the day. It will improve your
disposition as wall as your health.
Use a sponge mop to wash
windows outdoors, Try dipping
the mop into a bucket of water
and synth, tic detergent, rubbing
thq windows, and then hosing
them off with cold water. Let
th? windows air dry.
