Household Hints
Cotton iron-on interfacing is
an excellent sewing aid. Use it
in small areas for reinforcement
and to prevent fraying For in
stance, you can use interfacing
behind buttonholes, for rein
forcing points of gussets, and on
the underarm curves of kimono
type sleeves

An Itchy Problem;
Control Poison Ivy
Poison I\y control can be an
itchy problem, but you can kill
it without too much danger if
you use the right caemicals and
correct technique.
Dr James Parochetti, weed
control specialist at the Univer
sity of Maryland, says that grub
bing or pulling is not a satis
factory method of control be
cause it is almost impossible to
get all the roots If you leave a
little bit of root in the ground,
you will soon have a new plant
Several chemicals will kill
poison ivy and the operator does
not need to touch the plant
“The greatest danger of ivy
poisoning occurs in careless
handling of gloves, shoes and
clothing after the work is fin
ished,” he says
The most satisfactory herbi
cides are ami'trol, 2,4,5-T, silvex,
ammonium sulfamate and 2,4-D
They are sold under these com
mon names or various trade
names, and should be used at
Tues Wed.

tne race recommended on the
container label
Any garden or field spiavci—
-01 even a sprinkling can—may
be used for applying the liquid;
but whatever method you use,
try to put the spray on poison
i\\ leaves and keep it otf the
leaves of desirable plants
Eail> spung as soon as
leaves aie fully out is the best
time to control poison ivy hut
if the plant is growing rapidly,
spray any time up to three
weeks before frost
No method of chemical con
trol should be expected to kill
all the plants in a stand of
poison ivy with one application.
Re-treatment (as soon as new
leaves are fully expanded) is al
most always necessary to kill
plants missed the first time
Dead foliage and stems re
maining after the plants have
been killed are slightly poison
ous Cut off the dead stems and
bury or burn them, taking cne
to keep out of the smoke
