The home
Long spurs and pale legs are a sign of an old turkey. The gobbler, while it has less white meat, is supposed to have a better taste than the hen turkey. When washing out a tub with coal oil to quickly remove dark rims, do not neglect to wipe later with clean water and dry well. The oil left on collects dust and makes a tub slippery. . To avoid constant running to the cellar have chains run from the furnace doors through the floor to some convenient spot on the first story. This will be found as easy way to -check a furnace. A room that Is used constantly should have ventilators to purify the air. There are various patent arrangements, hut the simplest form Is to rim a deep piece of glass on grooves Inside one of the. windows, which is always kept open behind it, Never put blueing In cotton underwear, as It turns it yellow. Soak first in clear, cold water, then rub with soap, roll tightly, and let the garment soak for half an hour. Rub lightly On a board, rinse, and hang firmly, So the garment sags less In drying. 1
