Some hard water  soaps have
been placed on the  market,  but
! lime and soda are much cheaper
I
for softening laundry water.
Many well waters have from 16
to 18 degrees of hardness, while
-\'?.n river and lake waters may
uive from 5 to25 degrees. Hard-
.less is usual!v due to the pre-
>ence of compounds of lime and
magnesia dissolved out of the
aoils and rocks. The lime salts
Jo most of the damage by curdling* the soap and preventing
its cleansing action. The curdled
soap remains in the water, sticks
to the fibers of the cloth, and is
very difficult to remove by washing, even with hot water. Water
of ten degrees of hardness will
prevent the action of seventeen
pounds of soap per thousand
gallons of water, while water of
twenty degrees of hardness will
prevent the action of thirty four
pounds of soap per thousand
gallons of water.
Mucin dnessot Minne
sota water may be removed by
the addition of two pounds of
quick lime to one thousand gallons of w*a ter "of   average   hard
catch, fish from a four  dollai
rod,   We build school  houses ae88i Til*s w*u llot remove more

to be educated; and last, bul
not least, we send our boys

$20 dog to hunt 10 cent game.
Yes, these are hard times but
wdiose fault is it"? Don't place
all the blame on the president and the trusts.—Ex.
than about three-quarters of the
hardness of the water; but it can
be still further softened by add*
ing a little washing* soda.

MORE FISH NEEDED
Ten cans of fish from the
State Fish Hatchery of Glen-
wood were planted in Fish Lake
about five years ago, but up to
this time no increase in the
number of fish has been noticed.
We were told a few days ago
that only a small percentage of
the fish from the State Hatcheries survive the transfer into
new waters, and that to restock
a lake, not less than four or
five consignments should be applied for.
If this is true, application
signed by three responsible
citizens should be forwarded
without any further delay..
