A. Quickly blot up as much of
the ink as you can, then apply a
dampened cloth to the spot and
press it down firmly. Turn the
cloth to a clean place, and again
press it against the stain, repeat
ing as many times as may be
necessary. Do not rub the ink in.
Ink also washes off some sur
faces easily.
Q. What can I do when I have
inadvertently added to much
salt to food while cooking?
A. Stretch a clean cloth tightly
over the vessel and sprinkle a
tablespoon of flour over the
cloth. The flour will absorb the
salt if allowed to steam for a
few minutes.
Q. How can I clean the insides
of glass drinking straws?
A. Just by running some of
hubby’s pipe cleaners through
them.
Q. How can I remove old wa
ter paint from a concrete wall?
A. Dissolve a pound of tri
sodium phosphate in one gallon
of hot water, and apply this sol
ution very liberally, soaking the
walls thoroughly. Then scrub
with a stiff wire brush, removing
all the paint from the crevices
and cracks.
Q. I seldom get the use of more
than about half of my tubes of
household cement, because it
hardens. How can I remedy this
situation?
A. You can keep your tubes
of household cement usable to
the last drop if, after using them,
you replace the cap carefully,
then put the tube into a small
screw-top jar, and close this
tightly.
Q. How can I treat scratches
on dark-colored furniture?
A. Try applying iodine, and
when this has dried, rub over it
with furniture polish --and us
ually the scratches will be almost
invisible.
Q. How can I make sure of
eradicating all perspiration odor
when laundering sweaters or
blouses?
Q. How can I remove varnish
from furniture?
A. With equal quantities of
ammonia and water.
TIPS FROM CLEMSON
HOME &
OUTDOORS
Q. What is a general rule for
watering potted house plants?
A. Various species require dif
fering soil moisture conditions.
A general rule is to apply suf
ficient water to wet the entire
pot, to the point where some
drains from the bottom. Then wait
until the potting mixture is rela
tively dry before the next water
ing. This may be from one to
several days depending on the
potting mixture, the size of the
plant, and room temperature.
This drying period between wa
terings is essential to provide
sufficient aeration for the roots.
A frequent error is to water too
often. This may result in condi
tions which will actually reduce
water up-take by plants. It also
encourages the growth of fungi
and bacteria which cause root
rots and other diseases. — J.R.
Haun, associate professor of hor
ticulture.
Q. Enclosed are two empty co
coons found on Himalayan black
berries. These berries produced
very little this year. Most of
the leaves were practically de
voured. Please identify the in
sect and advise what must be done
for control next year. W.C.C.,
Orangeburg.
A. The insect is a bagworm.
Just as soon as the eggs hatch
next Spring, around May 15, apply
a Sevin spray. Sevin has a wait
ing period of seven days on ber
ries. -- W.C. Nettles, Principal
Extension specialist, entomology
and plant pathology.
Q. Leaves have been falling
from my oak tree all summer.
They’re all like the sample. I

A. Tfie petioles of the sample
leaves were damaged, but there
was no evidence of disease or-
x ganisms or insects. It is possi-
ble that some kind of sucking in-
sect fed in this area of the leaves,
or on the stems. The tree may be
experiencing shock from root or
£ trunk damage, either from pest
or man-made causes. I presume
•j: the leaves were falling before the
:j: spray was applied. Your county
•ji agent may be able to help by
examining the tree. - F.H.
Smith, associate Extension spe-
cialist, pathology.
Q. What are milk tank trucks
lined with that haul milk in to
the state of South Carolina? T.
i;! B.R., Greenville.
A. The only materials which
j:* are used for handling milk are
v glass and a special grade of
j:j stainless steel. Where nec-
jli essary, impervious gaskets and
connectors connect two pipes.
Most plants use welded stainless
•j: steel lines. Nearly all milktank-
j:* ers are made of stainless steel.
:|j All milk tankers are cleaned and
•j: sterilized immediately after use
jij: and sterilized again before use.
jj:! All equipment which comes in
•jj: contact with milk must be rigo-
:j:i rously inspected before being
: £ used. U.S. Dept, of Health, Ed-
::j: ucation and Welfare, the S.C.
State Board of Health, and many
•jj: cities also have regulations which
protect milk as it moves from
cow to the consumer. — Calvin
S B. Reeves, associate Extension
|:j: specialist, dairy science.
:•!; Q. We have 30 Crepe Myrtles,
;£ all covered with a white disease
similar to the enclosed sample.
Wliat is it and how can we get
rid of it? C. C. L., Taylors
A. Your Crepe Myrtles have
3 powdery mildew disease which is
•i* caused by a fungus. It is very
:j: common in this state. To prevent
# it, spray with Acti-dione PM or
wettable sulfur or Karathane, be
lli: ginning when new shoot and leaf
•j;: growth begins in the spring. Re-
peat at 7-14 day intervals. Fol-
» low instructions on the manufact-
% urer’s label. - Fred H. Smith,
associate Extension specialist,
pathology.
Q. We want to plant a few
chestnuts. How is the best way
§ to go about it? T.B.R Green-
| viUe
A. You will want budded Chi-
i:|: nese chestnuts. Deal with reli-
8 able people, either from a cata-
| log or by talking with local nur
serymen or garden centers.
Planting should be during the dor
mant season, the earlier alter
leaves fall the better. Plant in a
hole large enough so the roots
are not doubled up. Backfill with
good topsoil. — r. j. Ferree,
principal Extension specialist
horticulture.
