I W ATCH FOK MILDEW IN HI MID WKATHEK During this hot . humid weather homemakers should be on guard against damage from mildew. It is not the same as a stain because it attacks the fiber and causes it to break down. Mildew, caused by mold, will grow where conditions are favorable, as in 'any crark. poorly ventilated place which is warm and damp. Mildew may bo found in clothes closets, or in damp clothes rolled for ironing. Sometimes it is found on shoes, luggage, purses, upholstery, rugs or even on malresses. Miss Frieda C. Stoll, extension clothing specialist, Purdue University, points out that it is easier to prevent mildew than it is to remove it. She recommends the first step in preventing it is to remove the dampness. Ties may be done by heating the house for a short time with the heating system. An electric fan may be used

to help force out the warm, moist air more quickly a fte. the doors and windows are -^.fmed, Occa sionally, if closet doors and dresser drawers are left open, ties will help to keep moisture from collecting and will permit air to circulate. An electric fan may be turned on places which do (not receive direct sunlight. Even a.: electric light turned on is the closet will help. Calcium chloride, a chemical, which may be purchased frc.r.i department or drug stores placed in an open een.amcr in the closet will absorb moisture in the closet. The closet door should be kept closed to keep out additional moisture. As soon as this chloride becomes liquid
it should be replaced with solid chloride It also may be used to help dry up basements. Damp or wet clothing should not be left folded or rolled for any length of time. Soiled clothe.should be dried before they aie placed in the hamper. Dial towels may be washed and hung to dry after using. If the wet shower curtain is stretched out. instead left sticking to wall or bunched up, it will dry. Before storing, all fabrics should be washed or dry cleaned. Mold feed on finishes, hence, it is wise not to leave sizing or laundry starch in garments. During hot muggy weathi r molds may grojv in closed elothes bags. Garments scored it.

closets should be sunned and ailed occasionaly. Woolen fabrics in garment bags should be checked. A thin coating of floor wax or leather snoes and soles, as wt h as leather luggage will keep moisture out and help prevuit mildew.

Here’s a picker that will go out in your cornfields and do the kind of picking you’ve been looking for. Its ground-hugging gathering chains and its extra long husking rolls get more of your corn, cleaner. And it’s so designed that the cars cannot slip down between the rolls. This eliminates the expense and aggravation of "shelling.” You’ll like the way the new Co-op OneRow Picker adjusts on the axle for any heighth corn, and you’ll praise its perfect balance that lets one man attach it easily to the tractor. It’s made to perforin r/gA/, because farmersdesigned it and farmersbuild it. See the new Co-op Picker soon at your Farm Bureau Co-op.

f CONDITION ^PRODUCTION Tts, about 2000 cow years through 21 years of dairy feeding research at the Purina Research Farm havp gone into building Purina Milking Chows and the Purina Dairy Program. And this program has produced profitable results at the Purina Farm. Look at the record: From an average of 6800 lbs. milk, 238 lbs. fat to 14,167 lbs. milk, 505 lbs. fat! And the Purina herd is an all grade herd—and there have been no purchased female replacements. Local dairymen on the Purina Dairy Program are getting good results, too. Come in, let's talk about your herd.

3«i«&WASHINGT0N ’ MARCH OF EVENTS Russians Have Speedy Jets I Await Pole Envoy's Views Question Is: \ How Many? | On Vafican-Communist War Special to Central Press TF/ASHINGTON—Top defense planners are not too concerned W about recent headline reports of Russian air might. * Air Force leaders, supplied with intelligence reports on "jets so fast they could hardly be seen" at the recent Moscow air show say: "May but how many can they have?” Their reasoning is that, with the aid of captured German scientists, the Soviets could and doubtless have produced a few outstanding aircraft types However, United States leaders do not think the Russians have the "know how" to produce fast new planes in Impressive numbers. They point out that the United States has at least a dozen new jets coming along which will far out-perform the types familiar to civilians
now.
It is known that United States aeronautic research agencies are working on a series of supersonic planes which will culminate with one capable of as much as 1,900 miles per hour. • • • « • POLISH DIPLOMAT—COMMUNIST OR CATHOLIC?—Diplomatic circles in Washington are watching closely Polish Ambassador Joseph Winiewiez, a devout Y'atholic, for some inkling of his views in the Communist-Vatican war. Ambassador The diplomatic corps wants to see whether Joseph Winiewiez Winiewiez will stick by his church or go along with the Communish-dominated Polish government. The question came to the front when Pope Pius XII decreed excommunication for all members of the Communist party. Whether this applies to the Polish envoy depends on whether he is a Communist. He has never admitted party membership, although he represents a government under the Kremlin’s thumb. Catholic authorities in Washington say that the Church will take no action against anyone unless he is an admitted or proved Communist. However, they point out, It Is a matter for the individual Catholic’s conscience. Should he admit party membership, Winiewiez undoubtedly would suffer excommunication. Chances are he will keep quiet and keep on going to church every Sunday. • * * * • PACT DELAY HURT ARMS BILL—Senate delay of Atlantic Pact ratification appears to have jeopardized enactment of an arms Implementation bill this sjssion. There were even some indications that opponents of arms for Europe delayed the pact voting with this in mind. Ratification first was expected In the week of July 10, with arms hearings to start immediately afterward In the House foreign affairs
cimmittee.
However, the Senate debate dragged on until the July 21 deadline finally wax set. So the House hearings had to be postponed, and doubt has arisen that action on the arms bill now can be completed at this session. Congress tentatively is scheduled to adjourn about Labor Day. • * * • • PREDICTION GALLUPED The freely-voiced prediction that senators would do less talking in the absence of spectators has not
stood up.
Debate on the North Atlantic Pact brought forth Just as long— if not longer- speeches, even though the Senate is crowded into the old Supreme Court room in the Capitol, with no galleries to hold
appreciative spectators.
Senator William Danger (R), North Dakota, opposed the Pact with a 79-page speech, and William E. Jcnncr (R), Indiana, spoke
against the treaty for three and one-half hours. There were, however, two notable exceptions. Senator Chan Gurney (R), South Dakota, ranking minority member of the armed aervices committee, didn't even read his brief. He Inserted It In the Congressional Record and gave copies to newsmen.
Senator William K. Knowland (R), California, spoke for the Paat
for 10 minutes and then sat down.
All the sound and the fury had little effect. Most of the senators knew how they were going to vote before debate started, end the result was just about what was expected weeks pgo.j
