Slate College Hints To Farm Homemakert By RUTH CURRENT State Home Demonstration - Agent Double the board to save time and labor: A wide board to fit on top of the regular Ironing board of standard size for ironing linens, draperies, men's shirts, and other . large pieces, will save many lifts of the iron and shifts of clothes during Ironing. Use board that can be put on or off the stand ard board as needed. A width of 20 Inches Is sug gested for this board. In an ironing study made by New York specialists, It was found that this was as wide a* any of the women in the study could reach at their preferred Ironing height without bending forward. For <*omfortabte, ?ffp Artificial Breeding Of Cattle Is Increasing The artificial cattle breeding program is making rapid pro gress in North Carolina, reports J. F Brown, extension dairy specialist at State college. He says there are now 23 or cient ironing an upright pos ture is necessary, even while reaching the full width of the board. This allows free move ment without strain on neck, arms or back. The length of the board should be about 42 inches?or slightly longer than the board on which It fits. One end may be tapered for convenience in | slipping clothes over. Cut the board from 7/8-inch plywood or 5-ply wall board. Fasten wooden cleats on the underside to fit it to the lower board. To hold it more 1 irmly, wooden buttons may be screwed onto the cleats which may be turned to clamp on the under board. New York state housewives who made the first tests of the wide board in their homes re ported that it saves 15 per cent on the time spent on their weekly ironing. On this 20-inch wide surface, a man's shirt needs to be moved only three times in ironing. Mildew is a fungus present in the air. In hot, damp darkness, it develops rapidly. In cottons and linens particularly, c.ius.ng a sour odor and grayish-brown stains. The older the stains, iht more cifflicult they aro to re move. Fresh stair.s may ofter. be washed out in :,o ;p z. nc water. Stubborn stains Shay re quire ble?.ch:.ig. For white cottons or linens only, washing in hot suds, n.ols ten with lemon juice and salt and dry in the sun. If stain is old, bleach with hydrogen par oxide. Rinse well. For any wash able colored fabric, wash in warm suds Old stains are dif ficult to remove. Avoid letting damp clothes stand in a basket during, hot, damp weather. t ganlzed Artificial breeding as sociations In the state, with a total membership In excess of 2,500, and It Is estimated that more than 20,000 cows will be bred under the prog raja this year. Reports show that In January and Februaary 2,258 cows were bred by 21 associations. Two as sociations began operating in March; all others except inosc in Forsyth, Yadkin, and Davie counties began in January. Despite the fact that most of the technicians are new, reports as of April 1 indicate that the non-return percentage by tech nicians on January 1 services will average around 44 per cent. which Is considered A fairly good figure with so many new men on the job. Reports already indicate Improvement In the percentage tor February 1 serv ices.
