Brush woolen clothes often, in the direction of the grain of the cloth, inaide &nd out, and In and around pocket* and cuffs. Hang woolen clothe* outdoors when weather permits. Hang clothes straight on hanger*--zip plackets and button the top buttons. If you do not have a trouser hanger or wooden hanger with a cross bar on it, fold a piece of heavy cardboard over a wire hanger to hold the crease In trousers. Regular cleaning before clothes become badly soiled lengthens wear. Before pressing clothm at home, remove spots--a warm iron may "set" them so they will never come opt. Steam press with a moderately hpt iron, too hot an iron may scorch even through a pressing cloth. Sanitatloa System AkU Swine Growth About tt,000,000 pigs a year are healthier, fatter, and perhaps even happier because of a sanitation sjrst ten developed by scientists of the U. S. department of agriculture. The average weight of a "sanitation" pig four months old is-about K poundsmore thaft one raised the old way. The systtftrr also reduces death losses and effects substantial savings in feed for both pigs and sows. Farmers using H .report raising as many pigs from two sows as they did from three when using old* er methods. The swine sanitation system, which was developed during and shortly after the First World war, bo* gins with # thorough cleaning of far* rowirtg quarters with ly* solution. The next steps are brushing the sows well, washifig their udders with aoap and water, and putting the aows in the clean pens 'a few days before farrowing. When the pigs are about ten days old, they and ths sows are hauled to clean pasture. This mode of travel keeps there from picking up infection -on ths way. The pigs remain on pasture for at least four months, after which danger from roundwom)# Jfl largely past. . Leftover Cereal You can do any number o! tricks with leftover cooked cereal. Reheat it next morning with chopped dried fruit . . . chill it, slice and fry and serve with syrup or honey . . . combine it with scrambled eggs . . . or use it as a binder for meat loaf or meat balls. You don't need anyone to tell you that every smidgen of meat has to be used up these days. But maybe you're low on Ideas lor repeat performances'of yesterday's meat course. Of course there's always chop suey . . . stuffed green peppers or cabbage leaves . < . or meat and vegetable pie topped with pastry, masted potatoes, or crusty biscuits. How about meat shortcake . . . creamed leftovers' served on split biscuits? Open-faced sandwiches with hot grffvy is a nice way to use yesterday's roast or meat loaf. Or you might try a french-toasted sandwich--ground meat spread between two slices of bread, then ths whole sandwich dipped in egg-andmilk batter, and browned on both * little fat.
