, Tips on Stain Removal By Mrs. Shirley B. Blanks Home Service Representative Carolina Power & Light Co. Do you have articles of clothing which you have cast aside because you did not know how to remove a lipstick, fruit, grease or some other stain? If so, perhaps these tips on stain removal will be help ful to you. There are several important points to remember before actual ly treating a stain. First of all, try to determine just what kind of fabric is stained. Treat the stain as soon as possible before it has time to set. Avoid using hot water on an unknown stain because it will set many stains. Also, avoid using chlorine bleach on silk, wool, or acetate. It is wise to keep on hand some general stain removal supplies which are available at drug or grocery stores. These include ab sorbents such as blotters, corn meal, and cornstarch; bleaches such as chlorine bleach, sodium perborate, and hydrogen peroxide; and solvents such as acetone, glycerine, and drycleaning fluid. Here are some specific stains and how to remove them: 1. Berries & Fruits—(White cotton & linen)—Pour boiling wa k. A. WAKELON THEATRE ZEBULON, N. C.

C., Phone AN 9-9172 Planting Azaleas | Here's How By Robert D. Flake Assos. Agr. Extension Agent Beware of deep planting ol azaleas. Planting too deep can | cause plants to be unhealthy and, eventually, cause death of the j plant. Death is generally very ! slow. In fact, it usually takes 6 I months to a year and a half to : cause complete death of a newly ! set plant. [ Even after azalea plants are set ; at the proper depth, a special cau : tion would be in' order to avoid over application of tight mulches, such as peat and sawdust or even leaf mold. These materials can restrict earth movement and will usually cause a pile of excess soil over the shallow root system. Where heavy mulching is prac ticed, plants may need to be lifted several inches every 4 to 6 years due to this pile up of soil. Symptoms from deep planting usually are such things as pale leaf color, lack of growth, chlo rosis, and even dying of small limbs throughout the plant. Plant a bed several inches above j the surrounding soil level and set! azalea plants with at least % of the bald or root zone area above the bed level. Then, pull soil up 1 over the top Mi edge of the root! zone. Pack and mulch and keep | a plentiful supply of leaves. This is the recipe for successful azalea culture. Pipe cleaners are a handy item in any kitchen, twisting plastic bags air tight, cleaning pressure cooker steam ve nt, fastening plants, etc., get a pack for your kitchen.
