THE MIXING BOWL By ANNE ALLAN Hydro Homo Economist SPRING FEVER - FOR HOUSECLEANING Hello Homemakers! As Spring draws near, we are eager to tackle our housecleaning - to be "up and at it." This year the house •cannot be ripped apart but that needn't worry us for it was never really necessary. Then, too, you know that certain re- novations are out until `.Johnny conies marching home." Perhaps you have a scheme of your own ? There's the bit -by -bit method, with your housecleaning systematically spread over a couple of months. Walls, floors, furniture and accessories are dealt with piece by piece, or room by room, etc. This does not upset the whole house. In pioneer days there was just one type of door and one method of cleaning it - with sand (or strong soap) and water, plus plenty of elbow grease. To -day there are many types of doors and finishes, each requiring special care. This is true, too, of all oro• home furnishings. Below, we answer some of the questions most often asked • about cleaning, ,since it is impossible to deal with all of them. But do write ns about your own special house-clean- ing problems and we promise to answer immediately. CEILINGS AND WALLS Care depends on hie finish. Clean them a little at a time. Calcamined and 'papered surfaces are dusted. Painted and wood-panelledsurfaces' may be carefully washed. Rinse a small portion, then dry it thoroughly. Many women apply self-polishingl wax to Olean dry -painted walls to prevent fingerprints and soil. SPOTS; Crayon - sponge lightly with a clean soft cloth dampened with carbon tetrachloride; blot and repeat, Do not rub. Smudge I - use a dough type of wallpaper! cleaner or art gum eraser. Ink - blot. immediately, Th.e1 apply a paste of fuller's earth, lnk bleaches are apt to remove colour --- apply cautiously. Grease -- hold a clean white blotter over spot and apply a warm iron; or apply a paste of fullers earth and when dry, clean. off with a cloth clairlpeited with carbon tetra-chlo•lde. Water stains - apply a paste of fuller's earth and ,carbon tetrachloride. Leave on overnight. Tears - tear a piece of wallpaper to match; apply paste carefully; then press piece into place with a clean blotting paper, WOODWORK Tainted woodwork should be clean- eclwith a cloth wrung tight out of clear, softened water; then dried oft thoroughly: if Heave soil has colleet- ed, use a paint cleaner made of: n cup 'soap flakes dissolved in 1. quart ilot water. Cool until jellied and stir In i cup whiting• Apply cleaner with a damp cloth, then polish with lernon oil, Always apply a thin limn of oil. Let remain for 15 minutes, then take up excess with soft cloth. Black marks may be rubbed with fine pun- ca Do not rub around spot. WASHABLE .SHADES Take then down one at a time; dust thoroughly and place on fiat surface. Scrub shade with a soft brush or eponge with thick suds, Ilse water sparingly: Rinse off with cloth wrung out of clear water. Dry. Hang, but do not roll up until thor- oughly dry. PICTURES This year you'll want to change them around to make your rooms different. Frequent dusting behind picttu'es prevents ominous black lines. A paste of fuller's earth left on to dry may remove a stubborn line, I Picture frames need waxing and 'polishing occasionally. Woocleu frames require a little lemon oil, ap- plied gently - never rub. LIGHTING FIXTURES Dust on light bulbs and globes re- duces the amount of light, so keep bulbs and lights clean to get the amount of light you pay foe Before cleaning fixtures, turn off the electric,, current and remove shades, bulbs, etc, Then use the cbusting attachment , of the electric vacuum to go over fixtures. Wipe bulbs with damp cloth, being careful not to, get the metal section wet. Dry thoroughly, 1f bulbs! are extremely dirty, hold by metal end and dip in soapsuds. Dry care fully. If bulbs look very dark after i they have been cleaned, replace with new. ones. Painted metal bases are wiped off with a soft cloth dampened with 1 part turpentine and 10 parts mineral oil; marble bases are cleaned with raw linseed oil; crystal bases with a cloth dipped in water and household ammonia, .and dried thor- oughly, Hand -painted silk shades must be dry cleaned. Pasted or glued shades cannot be washed or dry cleaned.. Linen or homespun cannot be washed but may be dry cleaned. Imitation parchment should I have hte pasted edges protected, then elege,with turpentine.„Genuine parchment 'is wiped with a cloth sprinkled with a mixture of 1 part turpentine and 10 parts mineral oil; Prize Winners At Clinton Show Bacon Hog Exhibit A.
