Garments that keep their fit and
color, that go safely into soapsuds,
that dry fast and iron easily—if iron
ing i’s needed at all—are no longer a
dream. Blouses, lingerie, play clothes
and sportswear, as well as yardange,
have all acquired new finishes.
Ever since the textile laboratory
discovered how to give water-repelU
ency to fabrics, the search has been
on for other finishes. Water-repellent
finishes now resist staining and
wrinkling. Of course, fabrics with
such finishes still get soiled, but not
as fast as ordinary, untreated mater
ial!?. Soil and crease-resistance can
now be imparted to rayon, cotton, and
blends of synthetic and natural fibers
by resin finishes set in the fabric with
-heat.
You've no doubt learned that water-
repellancy comes out in dry-cleaning,
and so must be renewed. But did you
know that it can stay in through nu
merous soap and water washings?
So do many other anti-soil and anti
wrinkle finishes.
Now that these practical qualities
are becoming more common in fab
rics And made-up garments, good
washing directions , are in demand.
Just because a garment is labeled
wrinkle.fi stain or water-resistant,
does that mean you can toss it in with
the sheets Actually, all these finishes
resist dirt because the yarn has be
come “sealed” by the resin; therefore,
dirt will never penetrate deeply.
Vigorous washing methods are not
needed. The garment will release the
dirtt with much less action than is
usually necessary. Lukewarm suds
gentle hand-washing, or a short per
iod in the washing machine will get
the dirt off the surface of the gar
ment. So not much scrubbing, rubbing
or soaking, but, more rinsing is the
ticket.
Rinse through clean water seeral
times. This is because any remaining
soap will act as a wetting agent on
water-repellent surfaces the next time
they are out in the rain. Proper rins
ing gives the finish a chance to main
tain its original function of shedding
water. ^
.The special finishes that resist
wrinkles iron quicklj) and easily.
Usually seams, collars and hems look
all the better for a goipg- over with
but a slightly warm iron. Many items
don’tt need the touch of an iron at all.
Have* you discovered those wonder
ful corduroy garments that are wa
ter-repellent, completely washable,
and Wliuklv-I)l()<)t" > lim’t miv rnl<v<
though, during laundering, unless you
are sure they're fast. Just swish cor
duroy through lukewarm suds and let
drip dry.
Cotton Formers
Urged To Moke
Germination Test
Clemson, Feb. 9.—Cotton farmers
of the state should take steps to de
termine the germination of their
planting seed for the 1952 crop, ac
cording to advice from the Clemson
Extension Cotton committee. Germ
ination reports received at the office
of the South Carolina Crop Improve
ment association show low germina
tion tests on many samples of cotton
seed tested in connection with the
seed certification program, according
to the cotton committee.
While the larger number of the
santpies*showing low gejpiination has
come from counties in tlie lower por
tion of the state, some .of them have
come from up-state counties, and the
committee suggests that cotton grow
ers in all sections of the state secure
the germination tests for their in
formation and protection.
The committee says that securing

In addition, -such measures as one
favored by Gov. Byrnes to call a
State Constitutional convention,
could cause considerable delay.
There are many other bills of
normal high priority’standing that
also could cause^telay.
For instance, the Assembly for
years has enacted a deficiency ap
propriations bill. One was expected
this year. That alone, judging by
past performances, would take at
least three weeks to enact. But
Byrnes says he sees no need for
such a bill this year.
Then there’s the matter of county
supply bills. Only a few have been
introduced. However, by setting
several weeks for local legislation
only, beyond the v adjournment of
State-wide legislating, the Assem
bly can surmount that difficulty.

Assembly Still
Faces Several
Pending Bills
W
Columbia Feb. 11.—The General
Assembly will have to hurry to
meet Gov. Byrnes’ suggested final
adjournment date—by the end of
next week.
Passage of the $140,600,000 gen
eral appropriations bill for 1952-53
last week signaled the closing days
of the session are at hand. But to
adjourn sine die within two weeks
of the money bill’s passage is al
most unheard of.
Whether the Assembly can make
it, or wants to make it, that early
depends on how important certain
pending bills are to particular leg
islators.
If-the legislators are wfibing to
let drop the many measures that
are more than two weeks away
from enactment, according to the
mechanics of the General Assembly
machinery, then perhaps they can
go home by Feb. 22 or 23. ’
But if certain groups insist on
trying to push—through—certain
measures, the Assembly will con
tinue in session longer than just
another two weeks.
A quick look at legislation that
now seems to be" in the “must”
category for the Assembly shows:
A bill to allow Clemson,, and
South Carolina to play their annual
State Fair football game.'•
A measure to reapportion seats

good stands is a very important step
foi- profitable crop production, and
that where the germination test ip
low farmers should plan to either in
crease the amount of seed used tf> off
set the low tests or dispose of the
low test seed and secure seed with
tests known to be satisfactory. The
committee also advises treating the
seed with one of the approved meth
ods to control seed-borne diseases.
Farmers who desire to secure the
germination tests may send a repre
sentative sample of one to two
pounds of seed from each lot of seed
to be tested to the office of J. Roy
Jones, state commissioner of agricul
ture, Columbia. There are *no costs
attached in obtaining the germination
tests, and the reports are usually re
turned to the farmers in about ten
days to' two weeks. Because of the
fact that in some sections of the state
the planting season is not far away,
farmers should submit samples as
promptly as possible, , the cotton
group says.
