STAM HOMl OEMONSIRAIU^N At.ENr ] STEPS TO SUCCESS IN REMOV ING STAINS—Fresh stains are al ways much more easily removed. Old stains are stubborn and cre ate problems. Make it a ruie to check linens and children’s gar ments before laundering. Treat litains while relatively fresh—it saves lime. Foliow these five steps to remove stains; Treat stains before they set, whenever possible. Know the fabric. White and col or-fast cotton, linen, nylon, rayon, Orion, Dacron and simiiar new man made fibers can take treatments that would be fatal to silk, wool or acetate. Be sure the color is fast before using bleach in stain removal strength or strong reagents on col ored items. Test a small piece of a colored fabric first. Know the finish. No matter what the fabric, if it has a “permanent” finish to give it crispness or wrin kle-resistance do not use any chlo rine or chlorine-type bleach, either for ordinary laundering or for spot removal unless the hang tag on the garment specifically says it can be bleached or unless you can test i sample of fabric first. Always follow spot and stain re moval with thorough rinsing. Usual ly an over all laundering is advisa ble. Jon't Get Hot Under thel Collar at the Weather Man . . .

Good Furniture for Good Homes IV Iff r- Times are rapidly changing and we must change with them if we are to meet the challenge of the future. With 8,000 more mouths to feed each morning for break fast, we are rapidly approaching a 300,000,000 population figure, which many of us will live to see. It is estimated that we will need 50 per cent more food in the Unit ed States before our yolingest chil dren reach 21. The problem of feeding this ex panding population is made more acute because, each day, we are losing more than 2,000 acres of land for food production. This land is either being lost due to soil erosion, mushrooming sub urbs, or buried beneath the con crete and steel of super highways. At the same time, it is estimated that 100,000 families are leaving their farms each year. Can we accomplish this job of feeding the expanding population? The statistics are not too favorable. We now have 2.4 cultivated acres per person. In 20 years, it is esti mated that we will have only 1.8 acres; and in 40 years, only 1.4 on which to produce food. We must realize, however, that the produc tion per acre has shown a sizable increase in recent years, and for this reason we are eating better today than ever before. Forty-nine experiment station directors are unanimous in the opinion that we can feed our ex panding population “if”: we con tinue our research; improve soil and water conservation; adopt common sense farming zones; and keep our freedom and profit in centives. We can see, then, that the trend is toward fewer farmers utilizing less land to feed more people. This can only mean larger farms, more efficiently operated, and pro ducing products of the highest quality. This is about the Spittlebug. You never heard of it? Well, you want to keep your eyes open if you have hollies, and most of us do. It came to my attention last sum mer because it completely defoiliat- ed some of my Bigleaf Japanese Hol lies (Ilex crenata rotundifolia) while we were away. I discovered the insect again last week work ing on an American Holly (Ilex opa- ca). I noticed a tender terminal shoot that was wilting and the young leaves becoming distorted and discolored. The necessary pre cautions were taken before serious damage occurred. The Spittlebug is about six- to seven-sixteenths of an inch in length, oval in shape, dark to al most black-brown, with two narrow orange cross bands on the wings. From this description it may be easily identified. This insect feeds on shoots and leaves of various shrubs by sucking juices from the cells. Young twigs and leaves are injured by their feeding punctures. The eggs are laid on grass stems in damp places and the young (Continued on Back Page) Carol Lynley, a favorite with teen-agers, gives her fans a fine performance in "Holiday for Lov ers" at the Kehoe Sunday thru Tuesday.
