Ladies, /»V# By Doris Thomas, Extension Home Economist How to Launder Durable Press Today, many homemakers are buying laundry equiment to replace washers and dryers they might have bought 10 or 15 years ago. Technical improvements in today’s laundry equipment might mean a change in some of your laundering habits. For example, modern dryers have less heat and more air flow than older dryers which got quite hot Perhaps, you got into the habit of using a low heat setting for all loads. But if you have complaints of wrinkled durable press from a new dryer, suspect that a low heat setting might be your problem. Low heat is not suf ficient for durable or permanent press.

It’s been found that some homes have hot water that reaches a temperature of 185 degrees. And women use this hot water for washing durable press. Here’s what happens. As the soiled durable press clothes lie in your washer, and the hot water falls on them, wrinkles can be set in which are not removed during washing or drying—and some not even by ironing w Check the hot water tem perature in your home. If it’s too hot, perhaps you can adjust your water heater. Or read your use and care instruction book to find out if there is a feature on your washer that allows a mixture of hot and cold water simultaneously.

Have You Heard? residues, prevent water spots and even take the place of hand scrubbing Dishwasher detergents are entirely different from detergents you use in laundering or hand washing. Because dish water detergents are desmged to do powerful jobs, they can also be caustic to your skin and even dangerous if you substitute them for your regular dish detergent. Rinse additives are a blend of ionic wetting agents They are used in dishwashers to prevent spotting and filming and you can buy them in both liquid and dry bar form Liquid dishwasher rinse ad ditives are also available. Liquid is injected into the final rinse to break the surface tension of the water to allow a shooting action which prevents water from clinging in a ball and drying as a spot. The dry bar form of the rinse additive has the same charac teristics as the liquid product in performance, stability and number of washings. Remember, dishwasher detergents are meant to be used in your dishwagher only. WE’LL BE AT THE FARM SHOW... CARLTON SEED CO.
