Your Guide To
Daily Living
From Washington Bureau
FOR SOUNDER LIVING — Be
fore long you should be able to
buy more and better isleeping
equipment—metal coil spring, box
springs, sofa beds and cots. But
inner spring mattresses are still on
the prohibited list and will be for
some time to come.
PLAIN BUT GOOD-^-The new
electric irons won’t be the best and
fanciest manufacturers know how
to make, but they’ll fall in the
medium brackets of price and qual*
ity. Probably most of them will be
automatic.
SUGAR’S SCARCE — Your al
lotment of sugar for home can
ning is as liberal as it is, partly
because the Army’s demands for
commercially canned fruit are
great and we need to can as much
at home as is humanly possible. It
isn’t because there’s plenty of
sugar; in fact, there is a good
chance that the basic sugar ration
will be reduced.
GROW VITAMIN A—When we
stopped importing halibut livers
from Japan we lost one of our
most important sources of vitamin
A, the vitamin that helps to pro
tect us from colds. We’re still get
ting some from other sources, but
our reserves are dwindling. So
plan to get as much as you can
from your Victory garden; carrots,
sweet potatoes and yellow turnips
are all good sources.
BRIGHTER BRITAIN — This
spring, for the first time since
clothes rationing, sheer stockings
are on sale in Britain. Bright color
ed coats and accessories are in the
shops too, in contrast to, the drab
clothes English women' felt they
had to buy at the beginning of
the war. , ,
Now Is The Time To
Paint.
Whitewash.
Put up wren
houses.
Cut dead wood
from roses.
Get the old
porch railing re
placed.
Use that new recipe for lemon
chiffon pie.
Give the rats an “April Fool”
feast—late but effective.
Look for Dutchman’s breeches
and wild Wood Violets today.
