After you have cleaned your
light woodwork go over it with
a coat of . wax, particularly
around the doors where finger-
9rints are bound to collect. If
you use one of the non-poliah-
■ jng waxes no rubbing is neces-
sary and the wax will wash off
whenever you need to give a
thorough cieaning. An absorb-
ent cloth will remove' Bpots
from a waxed surface and cut
down the necessity of frequent
washings.
as well as what-nots out of the
garret.
Last week I went to a sale
—a real country auction and I
came home with some .lovely
old shells. One has a delicate
pink lining and I shall keep it
to hold pansies and other short
stemmed flowers. The others
1 am taking to a florist to fill
with small plants that thrive in
just a little earth. So If you
have any old conch shells in
your attic get them out and
clear, them up and consider
their possibilities. The rage for
Victorian things brings shells

New bird houses should be
put up well in advance of the
arrival of their future tenants
from the South. Ornithologists
tell us.that even wrens prefer
weathered homes to brand
new ones.
Kitchen pots and pans can
be kept bright and shining if
you follow a few simple rales.
Kach material needs special
treatment to prolong its life
and beauty.
Glass baking dishes and glass
flameware will remain clear if
you soak them first in warm
water and then scrape off the
softened food with a limber
spatula. Polish with a mild
scouring powder, wash in hot
soap suds and rinse in scalding
water.
Er.amelware must be han-
dled carefully because it chips
and scratches easily. • Sudden
changes in temperature cause
it to crack and chip too. Soak
in warm water and then polish
with fine scouring powder on
a soft cloth.
Aluminum will stand hard
wear and plenty of “elbow
grease.” Scouring pads of
steel wool containing a scour-
ing soap will keep aluminium
utensils bright and shining and
help you do the task quickly

Houston County Milk
Producers Average $193
For 3-Cow Unit
An example of the progress
made by the dairy industry in
Houston County is recounted
by J. C. Shoultz in the Grape-
land Messenger. According to
records compiled doling 1938,
Charles Ramsey, who operates
a rural milk route, in fifteen
days delivered approximately
1,100 pounds of milk per day.
The butter fat test averaged
4.5 per cent. The price per
pound at that time was 36
cents, but figured on the 1939
price of 27 cents, that amount
of milk would bring to the 25
producers then selling a daily
income of $18.40 or an annual
income of $4,824, averaging
$193 for each producer. Mr.
Shoultz has analyzed the cost
to produce and deliver this
milk to the cheese plant at
Grapeland. Eleven hundred
pounds of milk, he says.

would equal J.28 gallons. A
standard grain ration of 8.5
pounds per gallon of milk
would cost, at 1.5 cents per
pound, $0.72 perjdsy for con-
centrates. The calf and ferti-
lizer and whey would be
worth enough to offset thepaa-
ture in addition to furnishing
hay for the sows. Hauling cost
of the milk would be 25 cents
per hundred. Labor of milk-
ing and feeding should not ex-
ceed one hour per day for each
producer. This would leave a
total net income for the 25
dairy men who milk three
cows, or $1,379.
