The Old Fashioned Way
Dear Aunt Daisy, I am sorry to read in The Listener of the catastrophe which has befallen "Featherston" with a good linen table--cloth badly mildewed. I wonder if a remedy told to me years ago would help her. A friend had a similar experience and was advised to drop the cloth into a "pig-barrel," a large wooden barrel in which skim milk was allowed to remaif® until it became curds and whey before being used as pig food. Well, the beautiful cloth was -put in and allowed to remain for some days — a week I think it was. When taken out, all trace of mildew had vanished.
