LONGER LASTINO LEATHERS
PROPER CARE EXTENDS LITE
The rapidly increasing cost of shoes
harness and other articles made of
leather may be checked and considerable
saving effected in the expenses of
individuals by the adoption of simple
measures for prolonging the lifo of
leather say tho leather specialist of
the Bureau of TJhemlstry United States
Department of Agriculture Shoes nnd
harness properly treated will last twice
as long as when reasonable precautions
for preserving the leather are neglected
Grease or oil should be applied to the
shoes whenever the leather begins to
get hard or dry Tho shoes should bo
brushed thoroughly and all dirt and
mud that remains washed off with warm
water the excess water being taken off
with a dry cloth
On dress shoes or polished shoes use
castor oil and apply lightly at night to
the dried shoe rubbing the oil into the
leather well especially along tho welt
or where the solo is sewed to the upper
Polish the next morning Tan shoes are
of course slightly darkened 1y grease
and pven by polish Do not apply nny
oil or grease on rubber heels or composition
ole since such application is
unnecessary nnd injurious
Work shoes which are not to be polished
may be greased with neats foot
oil fish oil and tallow vaseline or petrolatum
The oil or grease should be
about as warm as the hand can comfortably
bear and should be rubbed well
into the leather especially along the
welt
If it is desired to seecure greater
wntor resistance than the above oils and
greases will insure a heavy dressing or
greasing with either of the following
mixtures has been found excellent for
this purpose
1 2 pound of neutral wool grca c
get from drug store
14 pound of heavy dark petrn
latum get from drug store
14 pound of light yellow para
ffln wax or
0 10 of n iound of petrolatum
110 of a pound of beeswax
Very good water resistance can be
secured by adding beef tallow to any
one of the oils or greases mentioned
above for grensing work shoes In all
cases each mixture should be melted
togcthor by warming carefully and
Htirring thoroughly Better penetration
Is secured if the grease is applied
warm but it should never be hotter
than the hnnd can bear The gren p < l
shoes should be left to dry over night
in a warm place The edge of the sole
and the welt should be greased thor
oughly as too much grea e run not be
applied to those parts Any one of the
nbow mixtures should be applied warm
to tho sole of the shoe thus Increasing
its durability pliability and water re
sislnncc
Harness leather should be washed nn <
oiled frequently Tepid water neutral
soap and a sponge or stiff brush should
he used After rinsing in clean tepid
water the harness is hung up to drain a
little while before oiling
Neats font oil or castor oil is best
for driving harness but tlicro may
wiiiie tallow mixed with either of tinM
oil n mixture of tallow and fish oils
about equal part of pupIi for heavy
harness Tho nflipllention rhouh bo
light for driving nnd liberal for hcav
harness The oil warm to the hand
rubbed thoroughly into the leather while
it is still wet from the washing
clean dry cloth should be used to re
move excess oil which the leather Is un
able to take up Harness can In I
soft and flexible for a long whllo and
made verv mm h more attractive In ap
leiirame by the proper application of
oil

VIEW MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE ASSOCIATION
The Plainview Mutual Life Insurance Association is a home
organization in which the members are assessed 100 for each
death which provides the funds for insurance There are 1600
members now and the State law recently enacted allows us to increase
the membership to 2000
This will not increase thecost of the insurance Each mem
ber only gets 100 insurancand when the surplus permits we
will skip an assessment F > v instance when the membership
reaches 2000 it will onty benecessary to make an assessment every
other death
There is a charge of hQ0 on the first of June and 100 on
the first of December qi eachwear for dues This keeps up the
expenses of the organization
It costs 500 tc join however 100 of that 500 pays the
dues up to the firstof December of this year and 100 is put into
the death fund and each member joining is not called upon until
the second death after they join
Heretofore the law has limited us to a radius of 25 miles
from Plainview Recently however our zone was increased to a
radius of 50 miles from Plainview This makes it possible for the
people in the vicinity of Tulia to join
Our membership is filling rapidly and the limit of 2000 will
soon be reached Join now lest you be too late adv
