* Pre-Exercising Saves Soreness For the Amateur Gardener

——

NO MATTER HOW MUCH she likes to transplant seedlings, divide clumps of perennials and tidy up fower-Bed borders, the smart woman Cg let her enthusiasm for spring gardening soil the looks of her ands. She knows that while other gardening addicts may understand and be sympathetic toward chipped nails, jagged cuticle, stains and callouses, non-gardening enthusiasts wont. She has no intention of showing up at weddings, dances and parties with hands that arent fit ito be seen. | Long ago she got rid the notion that thin rubber gloves are any | handicap at all in planting seedlings or even in sowing fine seeds. She wears them almost every second she is in the garden. If she takes them off to handle | particularly tiny seeds or to move |an extra-precious plant, she digs her fingernails into a cake of soap. | Soap keeps dirt from getting stuck {under the nails and makes washing afterward a simple job.

EVERY WOMAN hag been told that women’s number one job is to improve the health of the nation by seeing that their families get the proper amount of essential foods every day—yet lots of housewives still can’t quote the government yardstick for a well-balanced diet. Every woman knows that she shouldn't ask any store to deliver anything she can carry herself—yet many women are still having groceries delivered every day, instead of organizing the job of menu making so that they can get by on one delivery a week plus walking to the grocery and carrying home small items. Women want to help win the war —but too many of them want to decide how they are going to help, instead of doing what they are asked to do. And that is often nothing more than reorganizing the Job of housekeeping so as to do away with waste and promote the family’s welfare.
