Wash in lukewarm water and mild soap or detergent. Dry in the shade. Iron on ,the glazed side while still slightly damp with a moderate iron. There is also chintz that is not perman ently glazed.

When doing this job, textile specialists suggest care in brushing up the nap or fluffy surface of cotton chenille spreads and wool blankets. The nap on chenille spreads may be fluffed by shaking them occasionally as they dry on the line and rubbing briskly with the hand or a soft brush. Give them a final rub after they are dry. Nev er use a stiff brush because it is likely to pull out some of the che nille. To raise the nap on wool blan kets, however, a clean, stiff whisk broom is recommended, but the brushing must be done after the blanket is thoroughly dry. Wool is weak when wet arid must be handled' carefully. When dry, brushing will not damage the blanket, and fluffing the surface will add much to its warmth. Chintz curtains can so easily delight the eye for color that no one can resist them.

P ultry marketing he Production and Cull Non-Layers, Urges Farm Agent Hens that don’t pay their board have no place in a laying flock. County Agent H. E. 'Ver non of the State College Exten sion Service told Hoke County farmers this week. He urged flock owners to cull all early moulters and broody hens as a means of insuring the most efficient egg production and reducing feed costs. Mr. Vernon explained that the peak of the egg production season is now past, and that broody hens will consume as much feed as producing hens. Moreiover, he added, early moulters are notor iously poor egg producers, since they take longer to moult than those that start late,, and are non-producers for longer periods Mr. and Mrs. M. D. Green and family spent the week end in Supply, '.vith friends. Marketing..kdministration’s Pdul- try Branch, gave strong backing to the local county agent’s ad- , vice. j “It’s jus: plain good business,” ; Wise declared, "to stop keeping the hens th-a: aren't keeping you. ' The markets are short on good fat hens, and prices are good. All two-year old hens should be cull ed and their places in the farm flocks given to young birds. It’s an accepted fact that pullets are more profitable layers than hens. Now that hot weather is here, extra care should be taken to in sure that eggs are gathered fre quently, properly stored, and marketed under the best possible •onditions. Better eggs will mean better prices.” Of the two-year-old hens. County Agent Vernon said “such birds are probably producing so few eggs now that the weather has turned hot that they are not payinfi their feed bill.” He ad vised flock owners to look for birds whose beaks and. shanks have begun turning yellow. He also alvised producers to handle hens at night while they are in the roost, and to pick out the ones whose pelvic bones are close to gether and 'are not flexible. — ■ Southern Marble Works Lumberton, N.
