CAR1? OF LINOLEUM
A 1th ugh linoleum and felt-base
floor coverings have been kitchen
floor favorit s for many years,the
secrets f making their, last and
keep their good l'oks still are un
known to many housewives. Now that
wartime supplies of these coverings
are short, more attention needs to
be given to their care,
A light covering of wax that
penetrates the pores of. ‘the lino
leum is recommended by home econo*-4
iists of the U.S, Department of
Agriculture to protect the surface
from dirt a nd grease. - Linoleum that
is kept waxed cnf1 cleaned properly
will give years of useful surface.
Manufacturers say that more
linoleum is scrubbed and soaked
away than worn away, A waxed lin
oleum floor that does not get too
heavy wear can be kept clean by a
daily dusting with a dry mop and
only occasional washing, (Never use
an oiled mop or sweeping compounds
which contain oil.) If a good deal
cf dirt is tracked into the kitchen
the linoleum must be washed more
often. Much wa?h ing can be saved
if anything spilled on the floor is
wiped up immediately with a damp
cloth.
When the floor must be washed,
clear water is recommended, or a
lukewarm mild soapsuds followed by
