QUICK COOKING ? Cook
green vegetables quickly for best
quality. Use a cover on the pan
to speed cooking, and cook until
vegetable is just tender and still
slightly crisp. Long cooking makes
the vegetable llmR and changes
color and flavor.
WINDOW WASHING ? Wash
windows with warm soapy water
containing a few drops of kerosene
and a little bluing for extra
sparkle. A bottle-washing brush
dipped in suds picks up dust from
corners of window pane molding.
Rinse with warm water and polish
dry with a clean, lintless cloth.
Dust Venetian blinds weekly with
a lamb's wool duster or vacuum
attachment. Then tilt the slats
down and wipe with a cloth or
sponge wrung almost dry from
warm soapsuds; repeat with slats
turned up. When necessary. Im
merse blinds in a deep washtub
full of warm soapsuds. Scrub tapes
on both sides with a well-lathered
brush, and lift the opened blind
up and down through suds and
rinses. Drain, wipe, and let blinds
hang free while drying to prevent
tapes from shrinking.

harvest corn for silage?

125 tons of corn before it would
pay to buy a forage harvester.

cool eggs, to 60 degrees?
