Homemaking Tips By Mice Bertha Landis Home Demonstration Agent Ironing becomes a weekly task to most homemakers today. There are many tips which, if carefully followed, will make the job much less tiring. Clothes should be dampened to allow even penetration of moisture through the fabric. Use hot water to dampen clothes; it penetrates more quickly. Fold clothes carefully; do not kneed unnecessary wrinkles into the fabric. Fold the hems and double portions to the inside, and fold garment in a neat package. Use less moisture for machine ironing than for hand ironing. Dampened clothes shduld "season" at least half an hour. Wrap dampened fabrics in plastic fabric. Plastic wrappings allow a more even distribution of moisture. In cool, dry weather they may stand overnight. In hot damp weather, iron within an hour or two, lest mildew develop. Place unironed dampened clothes in a refrigerator, if they must remain dampened* for. any length of time. The room used for ironing should be conveniently arranged to eliminate walking. The ironing board should be so placed that the iron can be near an outlet; this eliminates the use of an extension cord. The clothes cart or the stool holding the clothes basket can be placed within easy reach of the ironer. A clothes rack or a rod to hold hangers can be attached to the base end of the board or within easy reach of the ironer. A utility table or a card table for folded articles at the right of the operator will save many steps. Much energy can be saved when ironing if you can sit on a comfortable chair or on a stool with a backrest. To iron while sitting in a chair takes 24 percent less energy than to iron while standto—iron while sitting on a stool takes 18 percent less energy than to iron while standing. Most homemakers will need to make a conscious effort to learn to iron when sitting down, but it is well worth learning. Properly designed boards with appropriate working heights are important in order to sit comfortably and still do the job well. •Rgleigh — Peanut acreage for 1954 in North Carolina was estimated at 175,000 acres.
