A tipsy pan on the range is both

homemakers. Before buying a
saucepan or frying pan, make sure
that it stands steady on a flat surface
and that the handle is not so

wastes heat. Look for the pan
that "hugs the stove," fits the
burner or electric unit underneath,
and has a close-fitting lid.
When white cotton or linen
goods, such as sheets, curtains, or
tablecloths, have stayed long in
storage, sometimes the fabric isn't
white as it once was. It has yellowed
in spots or all over. A textile
chemist says to try the simplest
remedy first. Launder the
yellowed article carefully and
hang it in the sun to bleach as it
dries. Orf dampen the discolored
area and spread the article out
in the sun.
If sun bleaching fails to work,
a commercial packaged bleach may
be used. Follow the directions on
the package. If a bleach solution
is made at home, one of the safest
to apply is sodium perborate in a
cup of water and soak the stained
place for a minute or two. Rinse,
and repeat if necessary. To treat
a larger stain, prepare the solution
in larger proportions. Whatever
the kind of bleach, be sure to wash
it out of the fabric at once, after
treatment.
One cause of yellowing during
long storage is a chemical change
that corneal with- aging of the
fiber. Heat of some storage places,
such as attics, and also light may
hasten this effect. Soap left in
a fabric for a long time may cause
yellow stain. So may tea and
coffee, which often produce faint
stains at first which darken with
time. Iron rust is another yellow
| stain which can develop, due to
some iron compound in blueing
or wash water.
Storage trouble with such stains
on white goods can be reduced
by pre-storage care. Have articles
thoroughly clean before storing,
the textile chemist advises.
Wash out any soap or bluing. If
fabrics have been treated with
chlorine bleaches in laundering,
neutralize the chlorine with a little
vinegar in the rinse water and
thenrinse in clear water.
Then store the articles where

QUESTION ? How should plant
beds for Turkish tobacco be prepared?
ANSWER ? In the same manner
as those for flue-cured tobacco,
according to W. D. Lewis, Turkish
tobacco specialist of the State
College Extension Service. Since
a large number of plants is required
to set an area of aromatic
tobacco where plants are set in
20-inch v rows and"- five inches
in the drill, the grower should
seed 100 square yards of plant bed
for each quarter-acre of tobacco.
The bed should be located on a
southern or southeastern slope
where the soil is fertile and welldrained.
The site should be free
of shade. After the soil has been
worked, says Lewis, 160 pounds .
of 4-9-3 fertilizer should be used j
for each 100 square yards of bed.
After the seed have been sown,
the bed should be covered with '
regular tobacco plant bed canvas. ,
If the season is dry, the bed should
be watered at seed germinating
time.

ANSWER ? The best way to |
answer this question is to cite the '
experience of a Columbus County
farmer, W. J. Collier of Route
1, Whiteville. Collier has 20 1
pecan trees around his house and '
yard. They are useful for both
shade and nuts. During the past
season he gathered 1,496 pounds

by Dr. R. D. Daniels will begin
Thursday, March 2, at C. J. Harris

Thursday in each month.
The clinic is for a routine check
up on the health, care, and feeding
of infants under the age of
two years who are apparently in
good health.
information about pasture for
hogs?
ANSWER ? Writ# to the Agricural
Editor, State College Station,
Raleigh, and ask for a copy
of Extension Folder No. 67, 4tGraze
Hogs for 12 Months," which has
recently been revised. This publication,
prepared by Jack Kelley.
animal husbandry extension specialist
at State College, emphasizes
the importance of thorough planning
in order to have pasture every
month in the year. Kelley says
Ladino clover makes one of the
best hog pastures for dry sows,
boars, and hogs being fattened for
market. This is a permanent pasture,
he says, and should not be
used more than one out of every
three years for sows nursing pigs
in order to control worms. Ladinc
clover should be seeded in August ,

New Registration System
St. Louis, Mo.?(I.- P.) ? A
streamlined registration system
this year permitted most of the
5,500 day students at Washington
University to register in approximately
a half hour to forty-five
minutes each. The change was
brought about by separating the
advistory functions from the sectioning
process. I
AH class changes and problemj
were taken care of in Francis
Gym while.the actual signing and
sectioning took place in the Field
House, thus preventing the lengthy
line-forming which previous*ly
occurred when one student at
the head of the line had some difficulties
to be solved.
