Homemaking—

ng Industry Survey Shows Beds Beat Ones at Home

DON'T WASTE ANY SOLICITUDE over the plight of hotel-bound friends as far as sleeping is concerned. A recent survey conducted by ‘the bedding industry shows that the average homemaker doesn’t give

as much thought to the sleeping does to that of its guests. ;

comfort of her family as the hotel

These models try out a new mattress constructed with fluffy channelled pillows attached to ‘both sides of this inner-spring mat-

tress unit. attached and the ticking put on.

An inquiry just completed among

J hotels and homes showed that 90

per cent of the hotels considered eight to 10 years the maximum period of service a mattress could give before it is junked or rebuilt. A check on the homemakers revealed that 53 per cent of all mattresses in use in American homes are over 10 years old and that 20 per cent of these had been used. for over 15 years. Almost 50 per cent of the homemakers expect the mat-

tresses to last from 15 years to a lifetime. Here are some other interesting facts revealed by the bedding ctompanies. Most states now have laws

. requiring that mattresses bear tags

describing the upholstery materials used. . . . In shopping for a pillow it is well to remember that the weight is a good indication of the quality of the feathers. Feathers with full and fluffy fibers weight the least. A 21-by-27-inch pillow filled with down will weigh about a pound and’ a half and filled with goose feathers will weight two and one-half pounds. The same pillow filled with chicken feathers will average three and one-half pounds. Because of the increasing popularity of twin beds, many manufacturers are making a pillow 20 by 36 inches in size. When cased, this pillow reaches practically across the ‘bed. . . . Incidentally the popularity of ‘twin beds is increasing steadily. In 1930, 10 double beds were sold - for every one twin size; the proportion last year was one twin bed to every four double beds. Child Needs Firm Mattress Children need a mattress and bed- ' spring that is firmer than those used on an adult's bed. Support rather than “softness” is to be watched since the child's skeletal structure is not yet finally formed and can be thrown out of alignment. If an overly resilient mattress and bedspring are used, the child may acquire a “droopy” posture since the youngster spends from 10 to 12 hours out of every 24 in bed.

. The Question Box

Q—What kind of sandwich fillers are suitable for a child who must . carry his lunch to school? A—Diced, ground or sliced cold meat, moistened with salad dressing; cottage cheese seasoned with pimento; chopped celery, sliced tomato, nuts or dates; Swiss or American cheese, sliced or ground and moistened with salad dressing, tomato sauce and sour.cream; hardcooked eggs sliced and spread with salad dressing, or chopped and combined with minced bacon, chopped pickles and mayonnaise; baked

‘beans moistened with tomato sauce,

peanut butter moistened with salad dressing or cream and mixed with raisins.

‘Q—How are cracklings prepared for food? ‘A—Cook the rinds in a large kettle over a medium fire. The kettle should be covered until the fat has cooked out. Then uncover¢ while the rinds brown. Remove from the kettle and drain.

@—Should I continue to use Mjunior” on my cards after my father’s death? My mother is still living, and of course, she bears the same name as my wife, A—This is somewhat a matter of personal taste but strict etiquette ‘requires the dropping of the suffix “junior” and your mother becomes _ either Mrs, John Smith, senior, or ‘preferably, simply Mrs. Smith.

Q—Are twins and triplets usually smaller at birth than single children?

. A—Although they are often less]

fully developed at birth, twins and triplets measured at 6 years of age do not usually show any appreciable retardation of growth.

@—Is it harmful to drink water in ‘which there is sediment of iron? A—No; because metallic iron is not absorbed by the body.

Hostess Plays Chet’s Role

By HELEN WORDEN NEW YORK, March 6.—The pomp and circumstance of the Twenties is as out of place in New York society today as a horse-drawn coach would

be at an auto race. Nobody gives big parties any more. The gold plate has been either relegated to the vault or sold. A house that involves a staff of more than two servants is frowned on. And it is considered smart to be able to prepare at least one good dish yourself. This year’s debs are all going to cooking schools. Mrs. Eugene Speicher, whose husband’s paintings are being exhibited all this month at the Rehn Galleries, is one of the most clever hostesses I know. Charlie Towne, our leading gourmet, says she is the best chef in New York. She not only cooks, but serves at her dinner parties. : While Mrs. Speicher is past-mas-ter in the more advanced forms of culinary art, she has certain tricks up her sleeves which we all might’ try. To begin with, she has made her kitchens in her town and counry homes so attractive that everybody gravitates to them immediately.

Attractive Kitchen

The New York apartment at 165 E. 60th St. has a kitchen done in scarlet, white and black, The walls are snowy white, the ceiling sky blue (Mr. Speicher’s contribution) and the shelves are edged with scarlet and white polka-dotted oil-cloth. Red and white polka-dotted organdie curtains rim the window, the pots and pans are scarlet enamel, and the stove and floor black. The dozen or more cookbooks which fill a white shelf above the white refrigerator, are bound in red oilcloth. : At the dinners, Mrs. Speicher dresses in the color scheme of her kitchen, usually in a crisp black taffeta with a red and white polkadotted organdie apron. The table decorations are always scarlet and white; a mound of red carnations in a milky white bowl; red candles in white candlesticks and white organdie table doilies and napkins. . Cocktails, a choice of Manhattans or tomato juice, in solid, comfortable glasses, are served in the big studio. The hors d’oeuvres are light because oi the dinner to.come but they are always unusual. Tiny, young crisp cabbage leaves wrapped around cream cheesé flavored with dill and chives, and held in place by a toothpick, is a favorite. Another is spiced mushrooms.

Recipe for Trifles

I tried the cabbage cheese trifies myself a few days later. They were easy to make. I bought a small head of cabbage, one package of cream cheese, 10 cents worth of dill at the spice store and a 15-cent pot of chives at the vegetable market. I took the small leaves near the heart of the cabbage and split in half. Then I whipped in enough fresh cream into the cream cheese Ato make it slightly runny, rubbed in a small amount of the dill, chopped the chives and stirred them in, seasoned wtih a dash of salt, black pepper and brown sugar, beat the mixture until it was fairly stiff and dropped a plop of it in the center of each cabbage leaf. After wrapping the cabbage leaves around the cheese and fastening them in place with tooth-picks, I stuck the batch in the ice box to chill a couple of hours. They came out crisp, cold and delicious.

Suggestions on What to Look

For in Shirts

Read Labels Closely And Ask Questions

A GOOD SHIRT is a joy to the man who wears it and a satisfaction to the woman who “does. it up.” “To insure a comfortable fit and long wear in a shirt—and to save washday and ironing headaches, learn to recognize the marks of quality before you buy,” suggests Margarel Smith, specialist in textiles.and clothing of the Bureau of Economics, U. 8. Department of Agriculture. In the following paragraphs Miss Smith tells some of the things a person should find out about a shirt before spending his money. Pnd these facts by examining the shirt’ closely, by reading labels, by asking questions, and insisting on clear-cut answers from the salesperson or the buyer. Most shirts are made of cotton— the finer shirtings for dress or business wear, heavier shirtings for work shirts. Best cottons for shirts are those with a firm, smooth weave. Long floats or loose or fuzzy threads indicate a weak cloth. Look on the label for shrinkage facts. Giood quality shirts are preshrunk in all parts. According to Federal Trade Commission regulations any cotton material marked “preshrunk” and which will shrink further should carry the statement “will not shrink more than per cent.” To keep their fit. shirts shotild be guaranteed not to shrink more than 2 per cent.

When you buy ‘a colored shirt, read labels for facts about colorfastness. Shirts should be fast to light, washing and perspiration. A shirt labeled “vat dyed” usually is fast color.

THE (COLLAR—Get the right height to suit the wearer. Collars are made for long, average, and short necks. See that collar points are sharp, evenly stitched, and lie flat as possible. A good feature youll [find on some shirts is “quilting” along the neckband. This is several rows of machine stitching to keep the neckband from crumpling down on the neck. Interlining of the collar should be fully shrunk as the oater material.

THE FRONT PLEAT—Here again, the shirt can be ironed flat and look neat only if the interlining is preshrunz to the same extent as the outer cloth. Firm and securely stitched buttonholes, large enough to slip over buttons easily, should be in the exact center of this pleat. If there is a design or pattern’in the material, this should be matched up along the edge of the pleat. Best buttons for business shirts are of pearl, four-holed, and sewed on” securcly. Pearl or composition buttons are suitable for work shirts. Avoid metal buttons, because they will rust as soon as the paint wears off. Also steer clear of compressed paper buttons, or unevenly shaped pearl buttons.

THE SLEEVE—Make sure the sleeve is cut straight—that is, the lengthwise thread of the material runs parallel to the top creases of the sleeve. Any sleeve fullness should be worked in neatly at the back of the cuff--either in pleats or gathers. The placket in the sleeve needs to be long enough so the cuff can be laid out flat to iron.

BACK---Make sure there is plenty of room in the back to allow free arm action, Backs of most work shirts are cut in one piece. Good business shirts have a generous yoke, with a full-cut lower back. Lower back fullness may be eased on to the yoke so it is hardly noticeable. ' Or it may be set in as pleats or gathers. These need to be located over the shoulder blades —not in the exact center back. The yoke of most well-cut shirts is rounded higher at the center back, which makes the lower back a little longer in the center to accommodate the natural rounding of shoulder muscles. 3

SEAME AND STITCHING—Look closely at all the seams, for poor stitching is one of the easiest ways to detect poor workmanship. The stitching should be close and even, with no knots either on the right or wrong side. Work shirts should be triple stitched at the seams with from 12 to 16 stitches to the inch. There should be about 18 to 20 stitches per inch on business shirts. Full-cut shirts fit better. To check this, look first at the shirt tails. If these are skimpy, the whole shirt probably is cut small. Shirt tails should be well-rounded with back and front the same length. On work shirts, tails are not cut so long as they are on business shirts. Nor should skimpily ‘cut shirts be confused with brands of shirts that are cut smaller in some places especially for slender men. Shirt sizes are ordinarily stamped on the collar or the left lower front. Collar size is stamped first—then sleeve length. For instance, 15—34 or 15—4 mean the shirt is 15 inches around the neck and has a 34-inch sleeve length. To be sure of getting the right shirt size for a man, measure an old shirt that fits well. For the neck measurement, lay the collar flat and measure” the inside of the neckband from center of the button to the far end of the buttonhole. For sleeve length, measure

to the lower edge of the cuff. Since the boys are growing, it is best to measure them each time for size. Get the sleeve length by having the boy hold his arm out straight at the side, measuring from the large bone in the back of the neck to the wrist bone. Get neck size by pulling the tape measure snugly where the collar usually

First of a Series

By HENRY PREE Times Special Writer N THESE critical days, when every mind is heavy with worry about the future, many seek an “escape” in books, hobbies or other pleasures. One of the better ways to shelve the daily worries is to create and tend a flower garden, a peaceful haven for your evenings and week-ends. As a testimonial to the tonic value of a gardening hobby, over in beleaguered England the government recently asked its people to continue tending their flower gardens for the relaxation from war jitters this gives them, rather than digging up their plots to plant cabbages. In planning a garden, the soil, of course, should first be studied carefully. The color and character of soil varies with local conditions. Soil which has resulted from the disintegration of limestone is an alkaline clay type—very fine grained, and consequently heavy and water retentive. This must be broken up with humus and sand. Sandy soil—disintegrated granite or sandstone—is apt te be more or less acid, suitable for rhododendrons and other acid soil plants. Since water passes too rapidly through sandy soil, humus should be added to help it retain moisture. Color of the soil does not necessarily determine its quality. Dark soils may have acquired their color from the rock foundation instead of from the essential humus. Iron compounds produce yellow, red, blue and often a gray soil, while humus produces brown to black colored type.

OU should make the most of the soil you happen to have. Be sure to remove any stones, roots, stumps, builder's rubbish and other such undesirable material that may be upon or in the top level. Deep cultivation is necessary only if drainage is needed or if hardpan occurs in the subsoil. Since hardpan prevents downward passage of wa-

‘ter as well as upward passage of

moisture from the lower level, hardpan must be broken up and sand added. Never plow or cultivate when the soil is too wet or too dry, since this will make the soil lumpy. Maintaining humus content of the soil is all-important. Humus improves the structure and character of the soil, increases its waterholding capacity, readily absorbs the sun’s rays, stimulates plant growth by freeing essential elements, prevents the leaching of soluble plant foods and promotes bacterial action. Mineral fertilizers need humus to be effective as plant food. Used together they increase crops from onefifth to one-third more than when double the amount of mineral fertiliz=r is used.

Manure and peat moss are the best known and most widely used forms of humus. Good manure, however, is difficult to obtain. Most peat moss is of bog origin and, like manure, is very low in food value, containing about 1 per cent of nitrogen and but a trace of phosphorus and potash.

Leaf mold is an excellent source of humus, highly retentive of moisture, but it varies somewhat in its reaction upon the soil. Oak leaf and nine needle mold react definitely

A beautiful path that beckons invitingly to the careworn,

acid. Most other leaf molds react slightly acid or entirely neutral. ” » HE compost pile answers the humus problem for the city gardener. Made up of various kinds of quickly decaying vegetable matter—sad, grass clippings, weeds, leaves and garbage—mixed with soil, kept moist, and with some commercial fertilizer added to speed decomposition and add needed nutrients, it forms an excellent humus. Alternate layers of soil and vegetable matter are placed on a basic layer of sod or some coarse material, and the pile is turned each month, restacked so that the outside parts are placed in the center of the new pile. “Adding a green manure”’—i. e., plowing under certain legumes, such as soybeans, alfalfa, the clovers and the vetches—will frequently add from 100 to 150 pounds of available nitrogen to the soil per acre, or the equivalent of 10 to 15 tons of good animal manure. Soybeans, the most valuable, should be plowed under when the beans are half grown. Previous to planting the legume seed should be inoculated with ‘a commercial inoculant carrying the type of bacterial needed for that particular seed. After plowing under a legume, rye is planted, to add to the humus content, and it is plowed under in the spring when it is approximately 10 inches in height. °

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a girl who will be 20 years old next month. During my last two years of high school I went with W. We quit going steady because he worked nights and I worked days.

The danger now is that if you continued to live at home when you aren’t happy there and do not feel “in the picture,” you might be tempted to marry in order to get away from it all. who marries on that basis is a poor risk for any man. In my opinion it is far better for you to live away from home for a while before you pick a husband. When you eventually make a choice, be sure that you have found the man you want and that you aren't influenced by the necessity of establishing -your independence away from your parents.

declare. functionally they are inadequate.

50 per cent have bathtubs. A summary of Americas standard of living in 1940-41 is included in the report of the group of the specialists in a book called “How America Lives” published by Henry Holt. It includes stories of various families ranging from that of Thomas Wilson millionaire head of the Wilson Packing Co. in Chicago, to Henry Bracey, Negro sharecropper whose oash income last year amounted to only $26. The family of “Bo” McMillan, Indiana University football coach, was among the families interviewed. The high point of American liv"ing. the book states, is American kitchens. The editors of the magazine claim that they are the best equipped and the most modern of any room in the house. Incidentally, the living room is the shabbiest and the dining room the barest. Ninety-five per cent of the American women have no household help and spend about 50 to 60 hours in household work. The weekly housecleaning is a tradition in the American home, but the spring housecleaning isn't. .

Credit Is Good

The dream of American families is to own a home, the editors conclude, and many American families are forever trying to get enough together for a down payment. The survey showed that the typical American families credit is good and that over €8 per cent fulfill their installment buying payments. They confirm suspicions that the woman holds the purse strings. Although the 1940 Census showed that $22 a week is the salary of the average man in America, the Journal editors say that a man with a wife and two children needs $35 to $40 a week to own a home, carry insurance and give his children “advantages.” The specialists found the homemaker was “touchy” abcut her food budget. The biggest single item in the budget goes for food. Other results of the eating survey showed: $10 a week will feed a family of four adequately . . . housewives are vitamin conscious. . . . Sunday dinner is passing and Saturday night is replacing it as the big dinner of the week. . . . Gingerbread and baked beans are favorites . . . Beef is the popular meat and apple pie and chocolate cake the favorite desserts. Economize on Clothes

The Journal's report on dressing states: “When the pinch comes, American families economize on clothes first. . . . There is no Main Street in fashion. . . . The fashion fault is doing a good thing to death. . .. Women wear too much jewelry.’ In interviewing women the country over, the specialists found that a women’s weight is her biggest obSession. Ideal proportions, the book states, would be height, 5 feet 6 inches; weight, 121 pounds: bust, 333% inches; waist, 2612 inch-s, and hips, 36 inches. Most women have two permanents a year, costing from $3 to $5, the survey showed. . (By R.R).

Your Health

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Writer ATHLETE'S FOOT, as most people know, is ringworm of the feet and toes. Since this is an infection, the “germ” being a fungus instead of a bacteria, getting over the disease depends not only on treating the conditicn but on preventing reinfection during threatment . or after it. Shoes and stockings or socks may be one source of reinfection. ‘ Directions for disinfecting these were recently published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. If the socks or stockings are of cotton, they can be disinfected by boiling for 10 minutes or by soaking for one-half hour in a 1:1000 solution of bichloride of mercury. After this soaking they must be well rinsed. Remember that bichloride of mercury is a deadly poison, so if it is used, great care should be taken to keep it out of reach of children and where it cannot be taken by mistake

tor medicine. 8 N= :

BOILING may damage wool and silk stockings or socks, so to disinfect these they should be placed in a covered box containing a dish of Solution of Formaldehyde. They should be left in this box for 24 hours before wearing them. Shoes may be disinfected with formaldehyde in the same way. They can also be sponged with a 10 per cent solution of formaldehyde and then aired for 24 hours or sprayed with Solution of Formaldehyde from an atomizer. One spray in the heel and one in the toe of each shoe 1s recommended each day for three days. The shoes should not be worn for at least eight hours after the last spraying. Formaldehyde vapor is irritating to eyes, nose, throat and skin, so if it is used certain precautions should be taken. Among these are the advice about not wearing the shoes or socks or stockings for 24 hours after the treatment. The spraying should be done in a well ventilated room with plenty of air circulating to carry off the vapor. The shoes should be held well away from the face and the hands should be covered with rubber gloves while sponging or spraying.
