to remove excess dye. After the color is "set." the garment can probably be safely washed along with other colored things.
Try not to set deep creases into
,terry cloth during laundering. Use
a short cycle in an automatic or spin - type washing machine. a loosely adjusted wringer in a con- ventional washing machine.
When washing terry by hand. squeeze out the moisture instead
of twisting it. It will save your
energy, too!
LONG-DRYING FABRIC
Hang it out-of-doors preferably. because his normally a fairly long- drying fabric. Dry terry right side out. and ake it vigorously before hanging. This gets rid of creases. fluffs up the short-piled surface and helps straighten the fringe often used to trim terry fashions. Ease a knitted terry cloth gar- ment lnto shape before hanging, Just as you would a knitted dress or sweater. Stretch along all lines of machine stitching before hang- ing. so that seems and trim won't be puckered up or have that "rough-dried” look.
STRETCH IT
. If there's trimming like cotton binding. edging. fringe. or braid. be sure to stretch it when damp by pulling it between the fingers. Fasten buttons and books before hanging up a fairly. heavy terry cloth garment. Placc robes on a shaped hanger; shorts. skirts or pedal pushers on a skirt hanger; arrange stoles straight across the line. While it is drying. give the garment a vigorous shaking occa- sionally to fluff it up.
DRY IN THE SUN. .. .. Dry white terry cloth in the sun. because sunlight has a natural bleaching action. All colorful fab- rics are best dried in the sun. too Indoor drying can be spcedod up with the aid of an electric fan. placed so that it blows on the an 1 in n

The most wonderful plants to me were the Gloxinlas with very large healthy looking leaves and covered with flowering buds. These were planted from the collections that were sold from the Nursery and certainly they would sell themselv- es over and over to all who might see such beautiful plants.
it is a happy day for all who are interested in gardening when it is spent over at the Nursery be- fore the terrific spring rush is on and if you have not sent in your order for this season. do not delay as orders will be filled in the order they are received.
SECRET OF NATURE
My father who loved the land, tended his acres from spring to fall so that the earth which he owned might bring forth good har- vests. that his share of fields give beauty and bread. The meadow thrush. the call of crow. mist hang- ing on the moon--they all meant everything to him.
I remember that he knew the secrecles of wood and bill: when trout were hungry; where the rip est berries grew. Who loves the land and drives his furrows deep becomes a name humanity should keep. In the springtime we remem- ber him. when the call of the wit geese is heard again as they ii to their feeding grounds. In the early spring. during the period of migration. on a calm. clear night. if you take your stand beneath the starllt sky. where there is no other noise to disturb. you will hear the almost constant fanning of wings
