Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 118, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 17 May 1916 — New Dishpan. [ARTICLE]

New Dishpan.

At last a man has invented a better kind of dishpan. How very long we have used either a high, round pan or a low oval one, neither of which was the shape or size of the sink. But we have now a vast improvement —namely, a square dishpan made of very heavy retinned ware. It is much more like the shape of the sink, and in addition, has the peculiar feature of a little plug at the bottom with a piece of wire netting so that the plug need only be drawn out when the dishwater needs to be changed. In this way, the water is strained and food particles prevented from going down the siifk.
