that theres a future in flax c c pettet general manager speaking at the annual meeting of the canadian paint varnish and lacquer association said that there is at present sufficient flax to meet all requirements of the industry in the first six months of 1950 what is of considerable concern to lis however is the fact that the 1919 crop was so small if the suc ceeding years were to follow that pattern it might mean that we would have to look elsewhere for our flax and linseed oil in the long run this could be a serious problem to the industry the wiser policy seems to be to put forward every effort to ensure sufficient flax production in can ada to meet our requirements that we are planning to do the farmer was displeased by the action of the government last year in withdrawing the floor price on flax and discouraging pro duction on the bases that there would be a considerable price de cline and that therefore the farm er would lose on the crop the contrary proved to be true and the price of flax held up very well it seems likely therefore tht the farmer can be persuaded to reverse his decision this year and grow more flax also with the loss of canadas overseas markets he will undoubtedly be consider ing crops for which he can find a domestic market canadas 1919 flax crop was 2- 500000 bushels approximately 15000000 bushels less than the 1948 crop which provided a

waterproofed with waxes rub ber or other coatings which melt easily some of the synthetics are ruined by high temperatures then too pilefabrics such as corduroys and chenilles mat under pressure be careful how you iron delicate fabrics such as veiling laces and loosely woven materials decorated with beads or accessories a firm pressing cloth is advised on these fabrics all biascm garments should lie ironed on the grain of the fabric rather than from neck to hem or sagging may result never pull sheer organdies or the more fragile rayons against the weight of the iron because the re sult will be fraying at the seams read the labels to be sure that specially treated fabrics should be ironed mercerized sanforized and permanently stiffened garments can be ironed however glazed chintz and moistureproof garments are not always recommended for iron ing the finish depends upon both taste and fabric requirements a dull finish is obtained by ironing n its wrong side dark coloured cottons and linens rayons satins crepes and embroidered pieces a glossy finish is acheved by ironing on the right side white and light coloured linens cottons and wash able glazed chintz damask cloths may be ironed on both sides for a professional look the best results of ironing are guaranteed by even dampness the safe temperature the motion with out drag and the light pressure of the iron points to remember are 1 use warm water to sprinkle clothes as it saturates fibres more evenly fold garments carefully with hems and other double thick ness parts turned inside and roll up tightly using kneading pressure as you roil coyer rolled items with heavy towel and let stand at least an hour if you can but keep them in a cool place to prevent mildew 2 the temperature of the iron is most important it should be con trolled as too little slows up the process and of course too much damages the fabric and produces shine or scorch 3 lost motion causes fatigue es pecially in hand ironing homema kers should not tolerate a wobbly board a wobbly iron handle or a surface that is not padded well iron with the grain of the fabric since ironing in oppostion to that natur al directidn produces the same effect as rubbing fur the wrong way even though it may not be noticed for the first 2 or 3 ironings i through force of habit many women bear down on the handle of lightweight irons exerting need less pressure and consequently ex pending needless energy the even handling of the iron as it is placed on and lifted off the fabric is most important other points should be considered important a clean wellfitted iron ing board cover a chlorine bleach in case of scorch a bowl of water and a sponge for redamping dried spots clean wrapping paper on the floor a drying rack and a few clothes hangers take a tip to iron a mans shirt or a blouse a iron cuffs first inner sur face then outer surface 11 iron body of sleeve cufr opening side first c repeat on other sleeve d iron yoke

double and iron upper surface keep on folding and ironing the upper surface until the piece is finish ed fold from hem to hem occa sionally instead of lengthwise creasing in the same place tends to

problems and watch this col umn for replies tractors can be fibk hazards experience among fire insurance officials goes to show that the farm tractor a great laboursaving de vice can also be a number one fire hazard if treated too casually farm tractors are designed so that the chance of fire is reduced to a minimum but experts point out that unless the machine is kept in good running order and is operated on a safety first plan it can be and is the cause of many farm fires in keeping the tractors well ser viced the important items are muf flers gasoline lines carburetors and the ignition system trouble rarely comes suddenly and there are usually warnings of defects which can be detected in advance if the tractor needs repairing under no circumstances should this be done in any building where fire could do extensive damage dis tance is the greatest protection and the cheapest a minimum distance should be 80 feet from any main building flaming gasoline spreads rapidly combustible material in and around a tractor can be a serious fire hazard chaff can accumulate on the engine pile up on the muf fler or get sufficiently in contact with heated parts to cause a flash fire to start and say the experts tractors be ing driven around farm buildings should be handled with the same care and good judgment given to mayfair restaurant monday thru friday 8 am 11 pm saturday
